2 memorable dates...
Today is day 29 of 60 days. I am sharing another excerpt from my book.
“Lockdown, 2020
It was scalding as it splashed down my thigh. It was its pungent smell that woke me up from sleep, not the alarm I set for 5:00 am. It was time to get them ready, as the bus would arrive at 6:15 am. I was not a morning person, as I always told the students in my interpersonal communication class. Although I did not think those students would weaponize that honest feedback in the Students’ Opinion of Instructor(SOI).
Life in Oshogbo was different as I had to get two angry boys, who also dread waking early ready for school. Yelling was my way of getting the boys to do what I want. Whenever the children left for school, I was in my home office. There were only three things there; a chair, a table, and an old laptop, which I got for $80. I also moved to Oshogbo in the wake of 2020.
I had to leave Ibadan to continue my life in Oshogbo. Whenever the kids left for school, I would sit at my table to create content for my audience seeking fully funded scholarships. It was the only way I knew, after my failed visa interview. I had gone for training in March of 2020, where Emeka Nobis talked about creating online courses. That was my first lesson on digital skills, and how I made my first $250. It was a lot of money in Nigerian Naira at this time.
The children arrived at noon and said goodbyes to their friends. I didn't hear the honking of a school bus the next day. Everything began to change after this news about a virus from China. I first saw an update on my children's school page. Then the news stations began to report it. Strange things began to happen. I missed many things. I missed our 5:30 am routines. I came to Osogbo confused, but I became more confused as the weeks went by. Churches were closed down. The streets became deserted. I was not a morning person, but I woke up earlier than I normally would during this period. My apprehension grew because I did not know what would happen to my relocation plans. My interview was in May, but everything was changing.”
For the next 21 days, I decided to switch things up.
I will be going live daily.
