We all have some unforgettable memories that sticks with us no matter how long it has been. It could be something we did or something that happened to us, or maybe something that we witnessed. I am about to share some really hilarious and unforgettable memories that I have. This prompt made me go down the memory lane and I love love it!

I will never forget this one time I intentionally made myself sick to avoid a particular period back then in secondary school😂. The memory makes me laugh so hard at myself right now and I wonder why I chose to be mischievous that day, let me tell you about it. Honestly, I cannot remember exactly what I was trying to get away from but I came prepared for it from home. There was this herb that my mom used to give us for maybe stomach ache or something, I can't really recollect. That local herb has a really crazy smell that makes you nauseous almost immediately you smell it. I took a portion to school this very day and when it was almost time for that period, I excused myself from the class and went to a corner to perceive it and put some in my mouth without swallowing. It irritated my entire system so much and when I got back to the class, I threw up! I was rushed to the health center, where I later got bored anyways.


I will never forget this day as well, where I was mistakenly called out on the assembly as one of the students that repeated a class. Ahah, am I dreaming? I was doing well academically so this came as a shock as I heard my name. My classmated were shocked as well and they protested immediately and told the announcer there must have been a mix up. Apparently, there is this girl that had a veeery similar name to mine (Adewumi and Olawumi) and we had the same surname too. It was corrected immediately and I went back to my peers.


I will never forget the first time I was surprised by my friends and school mother on my birthday in 2019. I was honestly not expecting it and seeing them that morning with the cakes and guitar and songs on their lips made the day worth so much. I didn't even know how to feel or react but then, it felt really nice and that marked the beginning of surprises on my birthdays.


I will never forget the first time I went to the airport, which was last year. I didn't get to be on a plane but that was the closest I got. My experience that day was everything beautiful and more, and it would not leave my head anytime soon.


This last one is quite embarrasing and funny, don't laugh at me! 😂


I will never forget the day I decided to be delusional and called it "challenging myself". I knew myself as a 'not very social' kind of person and I still decided to contest for the social prefect post. My opponents are the funniest part of this gist--a teacher's daughter and one of the best dancers in the school😂 And then we had me, who people barely knew. See ehn, I didn't bother to check the vote results, I cried me a river that day. I have disliked competitions/contests since that very day.

Thanks for reading❤️
