Hive account@merit.ahama with POV: Snapping On "Snapchat" For The First Time

The most embarrassing part of using Snapchat for the first time that I made sure not to show while chatting was, I got lost in the chats that are meant for me. My chat mate is a fast responder when online so trying to keep up in the strange yellow land (Snapchat) was like a real struggle. While I'm trying to respond to a message, over five more are waiting for my response at the bottom. I kept looking so closely to my phone to be sure of which message I was responding to.

Childhood Christmas Clothes

Back in the days, we all had fun expecting and receiving Christmas clothes from our parents whenever it was Christmas time, but one thing was for sure: you must have received a Christmas dress you didn’t like, yet you were forced to wear it.
Did you experience that? Well, if you didn’t, it shows you were born in this new age between 2010 and 2020.

In this prompt, take us back and share those funny experiences.

You want some ideas?

Weren’t you given an oversized dress as a Christmas gift by your parents and forced to wear it?

What about the time you were bought clothes that weren’t in trend and you refused to wear them because they would make you feel less in the presence of your colleagues?

And many other scenarios
