Nose of a dog

Nose of a dog

NIGERIA | Thursday, 8 May 2014 | Views [199] | Scholarship Entry

As I rise high in the sky for the first time, I realized that I have always wanted to do this. My ascension made me think back on my life as a child. Anytime there was a view of an airplane from the little house we used to live, little children like me would gather to sing for the aircraft. This made us happy and laugh. The memories made me smile to myself. Now I am right where I want to be...the tap of one of the air hostesses cut me off my reverie. She told me to switch off my phone. Little did she know that I was encountering and relishing a remarkable moment in my life and letting go of my camera phone is the last thing on my mind.
However, I had already taken a shot so I quickly switched my phone off. Life was beginning to start for me, my Masters program would soon start and after bagging a degree in International Relations, I would live my dream of writing and being a diplomat.
I'm sorry that I got engrossed in my life-past, present and future. Actually I am a 24 year old last who grew up in the holds of poverty. Regardless of my background, I still look forward to a lovely life round the world. This has always been my desire and my outstanding performance in academic work has further made my resilience stronger. Traveling is my life, traveling is my passion and also my dream. Thank you.
