DAY 8: SHARE SOMETHING YOU STRUGGLE WITH
So it’s alright most 12:00am on 8th of November and I’m tempted to leave this post till tomorrow but I’m determined not to fall for this temptation. Self control I guess.
So back to the topic, one thing I’ve continuously struggled with has to be CHANGE. It sounds strange right but yeah,I don’t handle change that well.
The issue really is when I get used to something, it takes a whole lot of extra work for me to change to another thing.
When I hear some people talk about how they went to various primary and secondary schools, I really don’t comprehend it. I attended one primary school, one secondary and definitely one university.
I remember in SS1 when my class had to be changed from the arm I was in from JS1, I practically fell into depression for the first term, it was sooo hard coming to terms with it. And I got affected by it so much. I can say I didn’t fully recover from that change till probably end of SS 2.
In my first year in university I ate only jollof rice and snacks just because I couldn’t adjust to eating certain foods outside my house (I felt jollof rice was a universal food so I could manage jollof rice but any other thing, count me out). This happened for a whole year fa. Even when I tried other things like white rice and beans, fried rice, spaghetti, I stuck to them. It will definitely interest you to know that I never ate swallow in my 5 years in school 😭😭😭.. yes, it was that bad. I didn’t have the ‘liver’ to try it 😂😂😂.
I could go to the fanciest and best restaurant but what I’ll still order is rice or last last chips 😂😂😂.. oh God 🤣. I don’t garnish my noodles just cos I got used to eating ‘plain’ indomie. I didn’t taste peanut butter for the longest time just cos I got used to blueband butter. I could go on and on but lemme not.
This does not apply to food alone though.
I purposely didn’t apply for jobs in Lagos just so I won’t move there. I refused to apply for masters abroad because I don’t want to start my life all over again 😭😭. I know I need to cut my hair and start regrowing it but I just can’t do it.
I’m sure you can see my struggle right?
If there’s any way you can be of help, kindly just comment below. But please don’t tell me to ‘just do it’.?
