I was dreaming when I heard my dad said he's working my papers to travel me abroad for my studies. Thou that has been my longest dream and passion but my parents can't afford it, so I ended up having the dream every night.

But this time, it was so real, so real that I hugged my dad and mum, kiss them and cried out of joy. So real that I started packing my bags, about leaving our house door piuuuuuuuu! it was all dream.

I wake up crying so bitterly that my dad rush in and started asking to know why I boost in tears, I started explaining and telling them my big dream, my dad left me in disappointment.

My dad would always tell me to forget about traveling out for my studies, that I should focus here in Nigeria, he suggested I register for jamb and choose any of the university here in Nigeria, but I want to study abroad because almost all my friends are seriously making plans of studying out, one of wish I accompanied to get her passport.

I can't be left out, I need to join my friends, it's either you people work it or I leave this house for you, this was what I always tell my dad and mum.

One-day, I decided to show my parents how serious I am. I woke up one morning, packed my bag and left the house without them knowing when I left. Although, deep down my heart, i knew they knows where I should be, at one of my friends house, my best friend whom we went together to collect her passport and I was expecting that they would come and look for me. Infact, I was expecting them to be so worried that they could not sleep until I return home.

But my expectation was cut off, my dad did not look for me, did not call me, did not ask of me even after knowing where am staying. He didn't even do as if her daughter is not home. It was my mum that called, but I rejected her calls.

At this time, my case was getting critical and needed urgent attention; I didn't register for jamb, I had no pocket money, the people am staying with already asked me to go back home.

The next dey, which is the day am surpose to go back home, I was discussing with my friend, to my greatest surprise, she told me she wrote jamb and she gained admission in one of the universities in Nigeria, that she wasn't planning to school here but my dad decided I study here in Nigeria so that they can be seeing me at intervals. Immediately I heard this, my mind resected, my eyes opened, my thinking faculty widened, infact I lost my strength and almost fainted.

I was shocked and disappointed at myself, for some minutes, I was short of words, several thought was going through my mind, how will I approach my parents, what will I do next......

Well, am still thinking about myself and what to do......

Lesson:

Don't over do.
Always listen to your parents, they always want the best for you.
Do things in your own capacity, don't do something because others are doing it.
Think we'll before you acts.
ETC
