MY NYSC EXPERIENCE episode 3 By Beebah

I am sure you all have been wondering what the Super story could be.
It was all a dream, from me waking up and seeing that I was posted to Lagos, talking to my friends and consoling them about the state they were posted was all a dream!
Actually there was no Lagos. Funny yeah?
I had woken up to reality and I found my phone just beside me where I had kept it, my sister had helped charged it a little and I hurriedly logged on to the NYSC portal.
As I await the state where I posted to and yes It was just the way I had left it last night.
” You are not in stream one you will be notified when to print your call up letter”.
I felt my blood stopped pumping for a while and just then I knew there was no network issue and I welcomed myself to reality once again.
I was really sad and down.
The decision of whether to cry or just remain moody for the rest of the day was all I could think of.
Just then a friend called to ask If I had checked, I just told her I have and I wasn’t going with the first stream.
She shouted and started saying all these pitiful words like : “Ehyah”, “Awww”, “Sorry”. Then I’m like “Helloooo, I didn’t break the news of someone’s death neither did I tell you I won’t ever be going”
Well I didn’t tell her that anyway, I only said that to myself.( don’t mind me, i sabi form well well)
Then I broke the news to my parents and all my dad said was “Ehn ehn , when are you now going ?”
(Nooooo, I wasn’t expecting that, I want you to say stuffs like, “What?!, how they can they be so stupid, What rubbish is that?)
I told them I don’t know yet and left with pain in my heart (lol…. no be say pesin die na).
As if the bad news NYSC gave me wasn’t enough, people started calling in to ask and I’m just like: “Hello, Stream 2” as I was tired of explaining myself.
The whole gist on group chat was about people exclaiming about where they were posted to, (he who has a cap has no head,he who has a head has no cap)
At that point even if they had written Maiduguri, I wouldn’t mind.
Fast forward to the day they are to resume camp, I called few of my friends to wish them Journey mercies and monitored their movement.
As soon as they started the orientation camp bayi I decided to go offline for the next three weeks.
I couldn’t just afford to get those heartbreaking pictures of them slaying in their Khaki and Jungle boot.
I know my friends dem sabi slay well well, plus we don get plans for the uniform.
It got so worse that for each time I see a corp member on the street, I begin to picture myself in the uniform.
Now the situation is I don’t even know where I would be posted to yet.
But you know, I said to myself I am never having such sleep that would bring that heartbreaking dream again. Never again! Never !
Just then I began a new routine for myself, a very funny one at that.
You wanna know?
