ENDOWEDWRITES

Hi Fam, it’s Esther Marcus of Endowedwrites and here’s our last piece for the year😉. I gave it a hard thought as to what to really write about before the year elapses. I considered writing a Christmas love story, sounds cool yeah? But guess what? There was no inspiration to write even tho I knew in detail what the story would be like.  As you know, I love to write you premium content only, but this one wasn’t giving🥲. Then one day, like an unforeseen rainfall that slaps hard on the skin, the idea came running not just into my head, but also my veins! I’ll be writing you a short story, narrated in the mind's eye of my beloved friend, Pelumi. **************************************************************************** Just like every other student, I was finally glad that the ASUU strike of almost a year had been called off.  Let me not even bore you with how I coped during this period.

I struggled with my loads as I proceeded to submit necessary certifications for registration.  The worst part was where we were asked to do the Covid test. I was afraid. I had been reasoning how I’d scale through this test more than how I anticipated my journey in camp. I mean, how will I sit and let them pass that needle or whatever it is, through my nose, down to my brain? I’ve heard experiences from different people whose eyes were red for days while some suffered from Catarrh. It was my turn. I sat down and leaned backwards. Within 30 seconds, we were done!
