RE: Hive-Naija Weekend Engagement #34 - "Hobbies"

The more I grow up in life the more I discover many more hobbies and adapt to them and I also discover much more things about myself that have been hidden because I didn't want to be mocked by the world but as I started exploring the world, I realized these things are what I will do at any point in time without expecting rewards in return because the utmost reward I derive from it is HAPPINESS AND SELF ACTUALIZATION.....

I woke up one day and I decided to break that barrier and that was how SINGING became my hobby and as time goes on I discovered my full potentials...

SINGING: Oh i come from a family of singers, siblings were a choirister and I was the only black sheep of the family who took singing for granted because I was scared of mockery and one day I got inspired to single one of my favorite gospel songs as a special number in church and guess what???

Immediately I collected the mic and started singing I didn't realize how long I took to sing the whole song and when I was back to earth, I could hear clapping and shouts from the crowd, I remember my first terrible experience while singing, I was glitching and switching tunes and was made jest of by my friends so I locked myself up but after this wonderful encounter, I started singing now singing is my hobby and what I spend most of my time doing, when I am sad I sing, I am happy I sing and when I am heartbroken I sing, when I am eating and bathing I sing...

COOKING: Oh this is one thing I never knew I could do because as s kid I considered all dish making very hard because all my mum mostly make for herself were soups of different colors and dimensions hehehehe😂😂😂 and after seeing her couple of times in the kitchen I realize how hard it is to be a good cook..

And I rather choose to become a foodie and started eating all that was made and one day my mum traveled out of the city with my dad and I alone and I was left to prepare breakfast and dinner, it was then I realized I could cook, I made noodles in the morning and my dad ate to his satisfaction, I decided to upgrade and made rice and beans in the night, lolz I have only seen my mum making it several times, I went to the kitchen and made rice and beans, lol 🤣 I served my father and went to bed, guess what ???

I met my food on the table the next day and that was what made me determine to learn how to cook and when my mum came back I became her right hand man in the kitchen holding everything and adding salt and seasoning to the food, slowly I started becoming good and it was even bad for a foodie not to know how to cook and now I am a great cook who can make over 60 percent of local dishes and 50 percentage of soup😂😂🏃🏃🏃🏃...

I cook anytime of day , both morning, afternoon, night and midnight

SLEEPING: yeah this is very crazy and very much more at the same time beautiful, I and my siblings are one hell of a sleep addict, we became like that because of all this our childhood punishment by our Sister, whenever we are causing troubles, she goes inside and get belt and tells us to lie down on the ground according to our height and force us to sleep and as time goes on we became adapters of sleeping and as we started growing up, we found sleep as our comfort that we can't watch two hours of movie without sleeping or dozing off and at the end we sleep..

There was even a time we did a no sleeping Challenge for good 24hours, it was only the person that taught us how to that didn't sleep oh, we were up for 12hours watching movie and before we know it sleep on a higher level and we woke up the next day to see my elder sister eyes open wide and we hailed her that is how much sleeping is a hobby in the family....

I have so many other hobbies but all those ones are with company, eg dancing, playing games and watching movies...

DANCING: This hobby became part of me when I went to s birthday party, I was 11 years then and we were in a dancing competition and then I remember how I started doing stunts on the dance floor with a guy like me doing the same thing, lolz I found my partner and that was how I adopted dancing as an hobby...

I got the most violent dancer prize and also the best dancer prize and now I can dance to any latest song in vogue...

Drumming : Oh yeah This is One thing I am still learning how to do because I have been learning how to play drums for months but I have only gotten a little bit better and that never pulled me down, I learnt how to Play drums from the best drummer but he wasn't always around to teach me, so I taught myself how to play drums and now it's is what I do most of the time on Sunday if I am not singing on the stand, I will be on the drum set....

Thank you for reading its been a beautiful one and I am inviting @burlarj and @sholex94 to come and participate in this beautiful engagement....
