It’s going to be my 13th birthday in the next four months. Ohhhh, how i look towards the mini celebration I have been planning and saving all my lunch money since the beginning of the year, February to be precise.
The snacks i was gong to get for my friends and yes I couldn’t wait to eat the fresh meat pie from our school cafeteria, and then the drinks, caprisome, bobo and then the zobo. How I love the fresh and chilled zobo drinks sold at our school cafe.
Then the most important part of the day i have been saving is going to be my birthday cake. I really can’t wait to blow the candles on my cake and make a wish. My wish of doing my best in school, and coming out either second or first place in my class, I was tired with the third and fourth position.
I grew up in the family of nine. I had seven siblings, being the middle child was exhausting. You have to always got to prove yourself as being good enough especially when your elder and younger sibling seems to be way better in everything they do.
Birthdays celebrations aren’t really my parents thing. My parents rarely remember our birthdays, except you have to remind them yourself. So most times, if you want to celebrate your birthday as a child of my parents, you are basically on your own, you are lucky if your birthday is on Wednesdays or weekends when we get to eat rice.
My elder sister’s friend was going to bake my cake, she would then bring it to school and yes, I was going to go to school on mulfti, and yes it is allowed, since it’s going to be my birthday. I am going to wear my last year Christmas dress, I have only worn it ones and that was on Christmas day, so wearing it again, my friends are going to think it’s a new dress.
I snapped out from my imagination and planning with sharp pain from my bladder, this is the 5th or 6th time I am going to the bathroom to urinate, and it’s not yet 10am this morning. Well, I guess is due the fact I drink a lot of water, since i am always thirst and my mouth is always dry.
Monday morning, I got up to prepare for school, I feel weak and tired, I couldn’t even sleep well last night because I was constantly waking up to urinate and drinking water that I had to carry a 5liters jug of water to my bed side, so i wouldn’t have to be going to the kitchen to drink water after urinating.
By day break, I had finished the 5liters of water, why am I drinking water this much? Well, I guess it’s because I danced a lot yesterday, being Sunday when we had our mid-year thanksgiving.
I managed to put on my school skirt and then I discovered it was a bit free than it used to be. In my school we normally use a white belt, for both boys and girls, but you know girls will always be girls, most of us girls, our white belts are mostly for fashion, and I wasn’t excluded out of that fashion, but then today it seems I am going to need a good belt to hold my skirt and not this my fashion belt. Did I loose weight?
