I have several good memories of Christmas as a child....those times when we went shopping for New 'curtina ' shoes and white socks,those crazy dress which i rejected if they didn't look dramatic..The few times we went to the village for Xmas and the memories with my grandparents was epic and i cannot forget.
I will never forget my first Xmas as a mum...my boy was 4 months old and it was beautiful looking out the window at the snow carrying my baby in arms,the feeling i got then still gives me goose bumps till today.
Funniest Xmas ever?All dressed up on Xmas day and discovered i had bought two left legs of curtina shoes!
Came to read comments 😎🍹
ReplyDeleteAfter dressing up, I fell asleep and urinated on my christmas dress. that was about 12years ago...
DeleteMy best Xmas ever...I went to church as usual that day..just to have fun and to say Happy birthday 🎂 Jesus on the 25th of December.
DeleteMerciful God,I was called upon by a beautiful lady,she asked me to go see the other lady seated at the right,close to the chorister's...So,I met this woman and I was given a scholarship...it has been good ever since.....
On Sunday,I invite you all to Methodist Church Calabar Becroft street ....God is real.

DeleteMy worst Christmas was in 199... When a street neighbour and her daughter died on the 24th.
Hello Christmas be good to us.!
DeleteI soo believe in the God of 11 hour.
#It will end in praise.
Son cried yesterday night till morning..... wetin dey make me shame. he was hungry no food no money
This will be my first Christmas as a momma!
DeleteThank you Jesus
Will I call this worst no but a funny Christmas.. That was 10years ago my dad wasn't around and my mum as a civil servant was on duty that day,their salary wasn't paid and savings was used to pay my brother's school fee cuz he just gained admission.. So to my story and I really hope it will inspire someone that when there is life there is hope don't ever give up on life cuz u never know when ur angels would arrive... So that was how I my sis and brother with my mum set out to her office on this Christmas day mum brought out her fine new set of dish it was four in numbers one for garri one for kulikuli one for sugar and the last one for drinking the garri we packed everything and we went to her office we just kept singing and praising God even tho deep down with my mum she wasn't really happy no new shoes n clothes for her children, on getting to the office we played and when it was time to eat I saw two of her senior colleagues with coolers I ran to meet my sister that mum's colleague brought rice that's how we started dancing n went inside the office waiting for them to open the coolers atleast we were sure small rice will get to us..lo and behold when they opened their coolers it was garri that was there yeppa my eyes turned red seeing it was garri that's how my mum jokingly said we too brought international garri flakes but theirs had no sugar no kulikuli that they had to use style to beg for sugar from us and I was like so our own sef better .I give glory to God because now we are all married and doing well because the following year our angel came visiting. All the years of suffering was forgotten. I pray all those in need ur angels will locate you very soon inj .sorry for the long epistle just needed to encourage someone .Stella biko post this one oo because I don't always see my comments. Tanks
DeleteLol....brb
ReplyDeleteCan't remember anything
DeleteMy worst Xmas was 2013..my dress was stained, how manage -i don't know cos I kit-up.was as if the ground should open or lemme faint cos we were in church
DeleteWorstest Christmas, was last year... My family was in shock, by this time last year I was in the hospital with my dad, running around but thank God for b. V Ruth, God bless you were ever you are cos God used you to feed my family this time last year.
my best Christmas should be 2014 when my oyibo Boo spoilt me well.
Worst Christmas was last year when an aunt of mine was involved in a terrible accident which lead to the death of her 5yr old son. A child they waited for after 18yrs of marriage. It was so painful then but God as a miracle worker that He is decided to put a smile on the couple's faces again by blessing them with twins.
DeleteDear bvs TTC, pls don't loose faith, hold onto God for He is planning something bigger... Let me go anon
Funniest xmas had to be the one where there was a mixup with the cooking. I usually make the fried rice and my elder sister does the Jollof or coconut rice.
DeleteSo that Christmas she insisted on making the fried rice and we argued about it. Apparently when I stormed off she shouted "make your damned fried rice!" But I no hear so I thought she was making stew but na jollof she cook.
So I finished watching Vampire Diaries and went to make jollof rice. Time to set the table, we discovered we both made jollof. Another round of screaming ensued. Our folks were just looking at us like we were crazy. We probably were. We sha ate two different jollof rice
This christmas is sure going to be the best so far because this daughter of Zion has never had a better Christmas
ReplyDeleteOk.
Deletebut you no come show for Nasarawa again. I was expecting you seriously ooo
Work no gree me
DeleteAll my xmas celebration has been good so far.
ReplyDelete*Celebrations
Delete*have
Its has not have biko.
DeleteThank me later.
Nothing comes to mind but I always spend Christmas with family. Lots of cooking and cleaning, I end up losing weight before the new year and I love it.
ReplyDeleteAs in ehn...cleaning, cooking and sharing food upandan. Being the youngest, it's like a ritual performed by me and me alone. I hope I'll be free when I'm married...
DeleteThe memories from my childhood till now makes me cry. My first Christmas as a married woman, i miss my family even though we stay in the same estate and i see them almost everyday i just miss them. This Christmas s somehow to me, see me thinking of what to cook but doing all these with my sisters and mum was so fun now I am fucking bored
ReplyDeleteThen have a joint Christmas Naa.You,hubby and kids go to your parents' end and have fun since you live in the same hood.
DeleteGod is d reason why even in
ReplyDeleteIn pain, I smile
in confusion, I understand
in betrayal, I trust
and in fear, I continue to fight
#i Love God,HE is d reason for d season
Will read comments
ReplyDeleteMy childhood christmas was when we will go to house to house, carry koko where we will store our kobo kobo they will dash us after eating rice and stew by them.
ReplyDeleteIt was just recently jollof rice started reigning. Na white rice and stew be the koko.
Anyway i will make sure i drink palmy with my goat meat peppersoup and yam.

Sincerely I've never had a `best Christmas 'it always feel like a normal day for me
ReplyDeleteCan't remember any Jare
ReplyDeleteGot a lot on my mind.
I urgently need a santa

can't think of any
ReplyDeleteAll my christmas as a child was dramatic,i was a task master cos am the over all last born then.
ReplyDeleteMy christmas 6 yrs ago was memorable too Because the Little girl they used to know gave birth on the 18th december,all talks was about me and my baby,see gift flying "upandan".the feeling of been a mum,and couldn't believe I could be able to do it too
bring it on.
ReplyDeleteThe best Christmas for me was outside Nigeria one year like that. I totally had fun.
ReplyDeleteUhmm, another one was in Enugu (the second time I went there), seeing my cousins that have been in diaspora (didn't even know some of them), it was real real fun until the elderly ones decided to spoil it with their "land fights". Thank God, the land sharing issue is settled now though. I'll also not forget the nasty experience I had with ukwa, I don't like that food till tomorrow!
For those of you going to Enugu or in Enugu already, help me branch to Ezeagu and tell them "Rocky misses them" Lol!
I really can't remember, Christmas was always fun as a kid,we always had new clothes and shoes,plastic googles,wrist watches and new hair do.sometimes we travelled to visit family,it was always fun. As an adult,it's not bad either,but it always comes with some kind of nostalgia/ sober reflection. Another year ending, how far I have come and the rest,plus I no longer eat birds,so Christmas chicken is a no for me. I hardly go out during the festivities these days ( no where to go anyway). Sometimes, I cry for no specific reason on Christmas and new tear day,especially new year day.
ReplyDelete*year.
ReplyDeleteMy xmas was neva dramatic,wat I always looked forward to was eating d chicken, we didnt have a say on wat to wear, mumcy will just buy d shoes nd cloth, I guess I was a quiet girl wen growing up,evn till now,an introvert so nothing dramatic,, I didnt evn look forward to visiting peeps or going to d village or staying away from home like visiting my uncles nd aunt cos we neva did any of those, none whatsoever no gift also, christmas was normal
ReplyDeleteCan't really remember any per se but i remember when mum will use broom sticks to measure our legs so she can get us the perfect shoe size and she's always on point. hehehe
ReplyDeleteGisting with my old man (keep resting Papi) after cooking for the day was also fun for me. I miss him a bunch.....
Best Christmas ever was my first Xmas in my husband house. I took charge of everything and planned things the way I like as a new wife. A small girl was with me to help out and I was a madam. It was sweet.
ReplyDeleteNow, since last December, our Christmas has been somehow because of this man's sickness. It drained the family emotionally and financially and he is not getting better. I'm just tired now. I wish us all a merry Christmas.
Santa, don't forget me o.
Which man?father in law?passing through same ooo,but it is well
DeleteMemorable Christmas should be 2006, when I got a puppy at villa, was carrying the puppy like my baby, sha people were looking me no send na. Na their business, see small children dey follow me for back.
ReplyDeleteAnother was 2006/2007 can't really remember. Went to where people do fetch water with my sis and cousin to fetch, we sat down on one big rock waiting for our turn and gisting, oya na see green snake come pass us on the rock, na im I jump up, come shout, told my cousin to kill it na, people were laughing, one man now came and told us that in our villa we don't kill green snakes, me was like shuu, haba he come dey explain say na ancestor ishhh, I no even listen, I know say na ignorance. I asked what if it bites me, he said he won't if you are a son or daughter of that land, that it knows it's people, mehn I didn't even wait for him to finish just went to fetch cus it was my turn, my sis was laughing, it was funny oh, so make I smile na if I see green snake, mtchewwwww. I vex that day come reach, come tell mama and Papa see laugh na, that they should have told us. Funny thing is how some villagers greet the snake. You will just be walking ohh, snake go just come pass you say high. Like haba.. Come to think of it haven't heard any incident of snake bite in that villa. Till date snakes na a.. I still run abi fly sef.. Phewww tradition indeed.

My love for swimming!

It was maddd fun! Cos I would have all my siblings n best cousins with me n no dull moment!
Another fun Christmas was wen we went to accra.akwaaba!

Christmas.. all the memories of neighbours terrorizing me with Bonny M tracks, Christmas lights and girls with tight braids that'd leave them streching their necks, "telephone wire", boys with Platinum FUBU and Sean John shirts.
ReplyDeleteI don't know. No outstanding memory.
Oh, I so remember that hair style!
DeleteTelephone wire, kink cross (whatever it's called)
LOL. Yes, Mrs. R.
DeleteIt was my favorite then because it was less painful to make.
This year is the best imagine me giving rice, tomatoes, oil, Maggi to pple around me that don't have, b4 now I barely buy to feed my self.I thank you lord who can do dis for me if not you Okechi SFI & God of my Precious mother
ReplyDeleteMy best xmas was in 2014 when i had my last baby.,He is my first son after two girls. Hubby was so happy. I so much enjoyed that xmas that i said %BY GOD S GRACE) i am going to plan my next xmas to fall in dec. My son clocked 2 today and i cant stop thanking,God for his life
ReplyDeleteI tap into this. God pls when my jadelle expires in 5 years time and I'm ready to get pregnant again, grant me my heart desire by giving me. Son after these 2 beautiful girls I've got. AMEN
DeleteOne of my best Christmas experience was being the only grownup girl at home at the time, I was left with responsibility of food delivery!
ReplyDeleteI so much loved it,a day before Christmas, my dad will give me some amount of money for transport fare and even extra money for miscellaneous expenses.
I so much love the jumping from one motorcycle to another, delivery Christmas food to relatives, family friends, neighbours and church members.
All the money I made from sharing food, I always keep for making new shoes.
My worst experience is not been able to get my size of shoes! My foots were on the big side, even though my sisters will bring shoes for me, it never fits.
I had to make sandals that I wore specially for running Christmas errands.
I never care about Christmas clothes because I hated the idea of wearing Christmas clothes and going to visit people.
One time, one of my older sisters brought me buba and iro, with asoke and I was not happy about it, when it was time to go out with them, I pretended to be feeling ill.
Christmas was always fun in my father's house, that man loved life and the music of King Sunny Adebiyi, SSP, Ebenezer Obey, oOsadebey, Oliver the coque (hope I spelt it right) etc... were his favourites.
"Being"
DeleteYour 'foots' kwa? Odinma.
DeleteYour "foots"? I think you mean your feet?
DeleteI've noticed something a lot on this blog. Why do Nigerians say "I so much love this or that" it's supposed to be "I love this or that so much" almost in every chronicle I see it. Even comments
Deleteis it a lagos thing northern or southern? It's so bad. It's bursting my brain abeg.
Well, all my christmas celebrations right from birth I guess till date have been so memorable. I don't miss travelling to my village from year to year either before or after Christmas. Always fun in the east
ReplyDeleteFavour is my Name! Favour is my Name!!!
ReplyDeleteDear Bvs, please help me bless God..
I lost huge amount to mmm, but I never for once proclaim negative... My Angel contacted me to help her bless 10 families in need a food stuff which I did and faithfully concluded this morning...
I was flat broke and never asked my Angel for help.. earlier today, I read a post here about Mr. CEO wanting to bless a particular bv on yesterday's spontaneous post... I had to go back and read the random message... Got his mail and sent him a message...
I told him I dunno if am d bv he wants to bless, but I read it and I need a Santa.. he replied after few minutes or hours, he said yes! It is you... Jesus!!! I was shocked.. he requested for my account number which I did. After 10 minutes , my sister, my brother, after 10 minutes I got a credit alert!!! A credit Alert.... Not a 10k credit Alert.. A heavy one, my dear I just bowed my head on my desk in the office in tears, couldn't believe I was in tears because only God knows, how I've been thinking of shopping this afternoon and replacing my make up in preparation to travel....
I open my eyes to another confirmation mail from my bank...
Mr CEO, words have failed me today, I never expected it, my colleagues saw me giving out, not knowing the giver was even broke at that moment, you have made me to smile more this Christmas,May the Almighty bless you.... Multiply you, and increase you on all sides... Permit me to say I love you for the kind of heart you have.... You so far have blessed over 150 BVS (no vex say I put the number) 10k each is 1.5M.and you blessed me with more than that... God replenish you.... You are soaring higher in 2017....
To my Beautiful Angel E... I refuse to cry to you, because your heart of Gold will want to bless me,but I knew there were people who needed more than I did.. you have fed 10 families and approximately over 40 kids.... Your star shall continually shine brighter and brighter.. your kids will be known for Good across the globe... While you are yet to speak God will Answer you... You are surely a woman with a heart of Gold... You're a popular BV so I won't mention your name to avoid people begging you via Mail.. you know I love you..
Sexy daddy kindly check your mail, I want to play santa to your family...
Love you all my wonderful BVS.... I will leave the office to balogun soon.... I might not see comments again till night fall.
Stella please na post... No chop this one

DeleteAs a child my parents took me and my other siblings to 'bata' to get our Christmas shoes. We were allowed to choose whatever type of shoes we wanted.I remember always picking over sized and high heeled shoes. That is how I will hold the shoes in my hand through out Christmas day and be walking bare footed.
ReplyDeleteI can remember when I used to bedwetting, my dad threatened to tie scorpion round my waist whenever we visit the village..
ReplyDeleteAlthough he never did
Funniest Xmas was at my villa in 2008. .
ReplyDeleteMy big cousin and I went to fetch water at the village stream,we saw plenty people having their bath at the stream and joined in.Shortly after my cousin suggested we cross to the other side to one quiet stream in a neighboring community with sparkling water called "iyita ocha"..I agreed.
We crossed ooo..walked briskly along the bush path through the ruffled leaves while some birds whistled in rhythm ...Minutes later,we got to the stream and We drank from the water then she suggested we fill up our containers..oh boy!! The water tasted fresher than Eva water and it was chilled too.
On our way home ,we met some people from the neighboring village who were carrying bunches of palm kernel fruits.. I begged them to give me some,I was chewing and enjoying myself while I gisted her about my new christmas dress I will show her when we got home.
There was a huge flat plank placed across as a bridge to the other side of our village..we crossed the first time to the other stream and there was no sign of sound of breakage.
Hmmmm,my people,i passed jejely with my bucket of water balanced on my head while my hips swayed by side ..
It was my cousins turn,one step ,2 steps everytin was fine until the 3rd step,I heard some cracking sounds and the blank broke and my big sis fell into the stream with a loud thud...lmaoooo...Hahahahahhaa
Everyone started laughing oooo,in fact no one even remembered to say sorry cos the tin was too funny
Her clothes were drenched with water and she was laffing too...I brought down my bucket of water and dived into the stream too to have a second bath...Hahahahahahha.That's how we stayed ooo and forgot they were waiting for water at home.
We made history that day as the whole village kept talking about the broken bridge.....The next day,they had to cut about 10 strong bamboo sticks ,tied them strongly and kept it as an "improvised bridge".it was the funniest Christmas to me....
Sadly,i won't be traveling this year cos I have make up jobs to do in Owerri....I miss my villa a lot ..Now I visit the other side more...
Anyone from Abia,Isukwuato precisely???Hit me up NWANNE UKWU!!
Babes, I meaghunu?
DeleteWow, first time I'm seeing someone from my mother's side. I love you so much for just that
DeleteOh Stella, I remember my best Christmas was when I had my son a day to Christmas. You see, there is something attached to a male child that is not explainable. I already had a girl Before, my late husband was the first son, a son was definitely needed. So having a son on the 24th of December made my home like a festival. I was discharged in the evening of the same day and I went home. Immediately they heard I had a boy, my brother inlaw went and bought a big goat for xmas. Oh Lord, it was beautiful, smiles on everyone faces, pampering and love every corner. I was happy and fulfilled. Sadly, we lost the breadwinner too in December. I should be sad as I type this but looking at my son who's birthday is tomorrow, I m sheding tears of mixed feelings. I don't have anything for him tomorrow but I know God has great plans for him in future. May God be with us and keep us all.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry about your husband! May he continue to RIP.
DeleteHappy birthday in advance to your son. May God continue to bless and protect him
May God continue to see u thru. U re a strong woman.
DeleteI have never had any in my life and this one is not either. Am here right now thinking how I have not taken milk since i gave birth to my baby who just completed 4Months, thinking why no job even as I have finished my NYSC, regretting why my parents brought me into this world of no help from any one and above all why did I even allow myself to get married and even allow this baby into this world. Oh God pls do something. Anyway the smile from this my little baby is always giving me hope that everything thing will soon be over.
ReplyDeleteMy best Christmas should be 2015,I got a job for the 1st time after 2 years ...Kai,it was fun.
ReplyDeleteI cruised town with mumsy and my siblings ,I bought them stuff and we had so much fun.
I recorded with my phone camera ND kept forming "presenter"..I even interviewed people around and asked them how they were enjoying Christmas....My "werey" was just on another level..lol
2016 was good to me though cos this job has Been a source of consolation to me....God has been faithful in various ways.
Christmas was interesting when I was younger,Xmas boyfriend that was dashing me 15naira...going to the stream like 6times a day in my Xmas wear.Well Ohafia is still fun even tho my hubby ain't from there but I visit every damn Christmas jare.
ReplyDeleteKaa nwami oma
DeleteEvery chrismas is always fun for me cos it my birthday so I usually see someone to pamper me.
ReplyDeleteThis Christmas is going to be boring o. But my best Christmas ever was when we all gather at home with cousins from everywhere. The feeling was bae for me. This one is gonna be some how. I don't have the money to celebrate. Popsy just died and my cousins won't be coming over. #cries#
DeleteOh! I have had so many memorable Christmases during my childhood/teenage years..
ReplyDeleteIs it the fun shopping at alade market ikeja and at please mum?
Is it the fun of watching on while goats are slaughtered,burned,and cooked with sumptuous meals in the villa?
Is it the many fights with my many cousins that always happen during Christmas?
Is it the presents,most of which are books?
I really looked forward to Christmas as a kid, but now as an adult, it's no longer exciting. I guess it would be exciting for me again when I have kids, cos I would have to look forward to celebrating every Christmas with them.
My heart goes out to people that lost their loved ones during Christmas, and as a result of that, they never look forward to celebrating Christmas..always know this, every Christmas, you are never alone. Your loved ones might not be with you physically, but they are always present.so chin up, try to be happy, and know that Every Christmas, and always, someone is looking down on you.
Dum Spiro spero..
😂😂😂😂...you should know better then...abeg wats the name of ur villa??? So if a stranger should sight the snake make he no kill am??? Till the snake turn am to lunch..
ReplyDelete#Memories are very special, sometimes we laugh by remembering the days we cried......And sometimes we cry by remembering the days we laughed*
ReplyDeleteFor the past three years, I have always had the worst Christmas and this year is no different.
ReplyDeleteI promise that next Christmas will be different by God's grace.
I am the future of the world
ReplyDeleteI am the hope of my nation
I am tomorrow's people
I am the new inspiration
I've got a song to sing to you
We've got a message to bring to you
For you and for me
For you and for me and tomorrow... Tomorrow
Blah..blah...blah
I loved this Christmas theme song(advert) from cocacola then...I missed it!
The best is yet to come....was meaningful last year cos I celebrated with my son!It's his 2nd Christmas this year so it will be better!!!Forever grateful
Ohhhh I remember this coca cola song. Back then, not sure I fully understood it's meaning, but it empowered me somehow. (hmmm..kinda strange)
DeleteMy best Christmas as a kid was the one I was taken to see Father Christmas a day to Xmas day. Ikwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwa
ReplyDeleteIn those days, father Christmas was not common, we only had one at the only TV station in the state back then(NTA). So you can imagine my joy when we tuned on our black and white TV on Xmas Day and I saw myself sitting on Father Xmas's legs answering his questions....
The gifts I got from father Xmas also went a long way to make that Xmas unforgettable....
Ikwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwa
I remember using the plastic cup for years and dem no born anyone well to touch am. I washed it myself and even took it to school well hidden in my bag. Ikwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwa
Every other Christmas was the best,but I doubt this will be fun at all...first Xmas without dad and everything just feels wrong,continue to R.I.P DADDY....came home today,after much pleading from mum and sisters,bcos I couldn't imagine this is December at all or rather just 2 days to Christmas,we always looked forward to this period bcos of d goodies ND fun daddy always provided but now that he is gone,there is nothing like that,so pls everyone with your family still intact pls cherish and value every moment with them this period pls....i miss u pops,this just feels sad...
ReplyDeleteNo Santa located me bcos daddy was always our Santa...season greetings everyone
Sorry about your dad! May he continue to rest in God's bosom.
DeleteAMEN....THANKS MA I APPRECIATE
DeleteAs an adult, I don't have a best yet..
ReplyDeleteI always try as much as I can to make myself happy and enjoy it....no matter what...
I'm grown now, no more crying for a particular type of gown... Now I wear whatever I feel like wearing.
For this Xmas, I had a tailor sew a short and sexy ankara gown for me, also made exactly the same thing for my girl, bought cute heels for us to rock our dresses with, nice hairdo and jewelries to go. We both are gonna have a photoshoot on that day, oh how I love pictures... Thank God for giving me a beautiful model, my daughter likes fashion and pictures. She is my best friend....and we look so alike... #happymum #itcanonlybeGod #daughtersrock
Now I'm beginning to sound like some storytellers here...ikwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwa
I prophesy beautiful baby girls into the lives of all those TTC here, this time next year, you will celebrate with your beautiful cute angels.....
Lool! Always cracking me up. You be serious case aswear! Choi

ReplyDeleteKwakwakwakwakwa😂😂😂😂
DeleteThere's never been bored Christmas in my life
ReplyDeleteMy most memorable Christmas is when my younger brother was about 4yrs old, we travelled to the village.then my grand father had a mud house that we used to call 'old house' and my dads younger sister had a store by the old house and she used to sell kaikai. While my mum was cooking in the 'new house's we strolled to the old house to stay with the grand parents, we didn't know when my brother went into the store, opened the keg of kaikai and sucked enough with the host my aunt kept beside. He came out and after a while he just started doing backflips and laughing o, I had to go carry him from the sand then I perceived the kaikai on him, I just screamed and took him to mom. They quickly put some water in his bath basin to wash him, this my younger brother just bent his head inside the basin and was saying "mummy I wan to schwim" then he started singing " ah fiyu goooood" (I feel good) 😂😂that was one hell of a day!
ReplyDeleteHahahhahaa,inukwa fiyu good!

ReplyDeleteI'm relaxing now watching this Korean season film all over again, SeaGOD is the title. I first watched it 5years back, went to my film archives to search for some interesting old movies and came across this epic movie and Merlin, I will start with Merlin as soon as I finish this one. I'm watching season 4 now.
ReplyDeleteMy best Christmas ever was in 2009. Went to see my folks at their base. I was really loaded. And I had just bought a new ride too. Came prepared for everyone. All they needed to do was to touch or request anything and I pay (my immediate family o). I had a lot of cash to throw around also, to family friends and well wishers.
ReplyDeleteI put so much joy and laughter on my mom's face and that made me very happy.
I am looking forward to do dat soon again.
Best Christmas?? Can't even remember how they all went but I'm sure this one is going to be something less than interesting. My house and pocket is very dry.
ReplyDeleteI remember when I was abt 12 yrs,mum bought me an already made skirt n blouse wt a waist coat on top. Xmas came and I rocked it only for some of our neighbours to be laughing at me dt my mum always buys already.made for me as if I was still a baby (jealousy)dt I should always reject wen she gives me such that I would look more matured in cut and sew. Chaii,I felt really bad and shy bcx they all wore local cut n sew. I couldn't even move freely again.
ReplyDeletenext Xmas approaching and I insisted on cut n sew,mum was very surprised and tried convincing me but I was adamant she was surprised as to how I badly need cut and sew,than I told her. She tried to make me see that mine was better and of a better quality but I insisted so she let me have my way. She asked for the type of material I neede and I went for "shaking material"
long story short,the tailor made a printed skirt and jacked and it was b!d on me. Trust my mum,she insisted I wore the dress and forced me to go out wt them. Infant she sent me out and locked d door. I went to my neighbours and all of them had a good laugh,they laughed me silly and I was really so ashamed I could even eat.
Chai,worst xmass ever. My mum can discipline person dt yr as a teacher dt she is I wonder y my kids r so lucky wt her dis time.
Lmao!!!!!hahaaahaaaahaa
DeleteThe best Christmas I had was in 1996.you see my father had a terrible accident that year and was in coma for 2months.After he woke up, he lost his memory and had to be reminded we were his kids. On Christmas day, he called our names and we were 5 in number. That was my best Christmas ever! My dad remembered my name. He passed on some years back never fully recovered. Life is precious live it well.

ReplyDeleteChristmas was fun while I was small remember we usually spent Christmas with grandpa, he stays in lagos so we don't go to the village. My parents run a poultry so goats,chicken, pigs was a regular thing we slaughter every weekend cos we sell them too. mostly every Christmas it's pig we slaughter my mum and big sis do the cooking part then we take them to grandpa's house for the big party with all my cousin being around its fun. It's just new year eve I know I must chop hot slap from my parents cos I don't like following them to their church prefer going with my friends to their own church which my dad doesn't not approved but I will still excape trust my parents when I get back they will be waiting at the door for me with my gift ogbono felifeli slap.
ReplyDeleteI have these fond memories of when I was a kid. My dad will personally take me to a hair dresser to make a hair style we called darling curls. And I start feeling like a princess. He has been down with stroke for 6 years now. Lord if only you will just heal my dad, so we can do all the things we talked about. Am married now but I miss my dad so much. Even if is just to hear him call my name the way he used to.
ReplyDeleteXmas season was always magical for me when I was young,theres this unexplainable feelings that comes with it......is it the bangers?Xmas shoes?Xmas dress?plaiting of new hair?Xmas carols?Xmas disco lights?going to friends house to collect Xmas money?....the list is endless.........but come, there's nothing magical about xmas to me,......
ReplyDeleteThis Christmas is my best.Finally iam a mother at 44years.Pains?,I have seen. Thank you Jesus!!
ReplyDeleteMay u never know pain nor sorrow again. Congrats! God sure is still in d business of performing miracles
DeleteI wish i also have a story to tell on my best Christmas celebration ever; since i was a child & up till now no fun, no new dress whatsoever instead is one policy to the other even on festive/free season like Christmas. I just want 2019 to come fast so that I'll be free from all these authoritative abi na monarchical home/policies & build my self esteem back cuz everything is just annoying to me.
ReplyDeleteDear future hubby, i hope u'll filled up all that I have missed when we finally get married? You'll buy me all that I never had when I was small/young.
#OkBye!
This Christmas is the worst Christmas cos I can't even talk to talk to my kids. I was hoping to hear them sing to be this Christmas like they did last year. Oh God please hear my cry and come to my aid. I miss my angels sooooo much, my heart is breaking even more. Merry Christmas my babies. By God's grace next we'll be together and I'll make up for the four Christmases we missed together.
ReplyDeleteBest Christmas? Never had any jare. They've always been the same to me.
ReplyDeleteChurch things!!!
Christmas? I don't have any best, they are all the same jare. May God help us.
ReplyDeleteXP, greet everybody for village oo and remember to bring something for me.
Ideato you are blessed already. May God honour Sir/Ma CEO.
Super mama it is well with you, God will heal your husband and give him a long life. I feel for you anytime I see your comment about his sickness, I remember how my dad was sick for years before he finally died. It was a trying period for the whole family. We managed to finish school by God's grace. Today, we are thankful.
ReplyDeleteNow my Christmas as a child was fun filled. We would do promise card few weeks to the time and start collecting gifts and money. From my own money I will buy toys and other fancy things. On Christmas day, me and some other kids will go round in our Christmas regalia from home to home, eating and drinking, when we are done, the house owners will give us money to share. At the end of the day, we will sit and rate all the stews we ate and score them according to taste and the size of the meat. There was this Calabar woman whose stew always beat other women's from year to year.
Now, things have changed, children don't go round to eat anymore.
I think this is my best so far. I travelled to Dubai for 5 days as a gift pack. Plenty xmas gifts (watch, clothes and especially rice) from friends far and wide. And a 13th pay. God know sey I am grateful to him for this year.
ReplyDeleteChristmas as a kid was fun, remembered how we will wear new pants and shimi to serve food to neighbours. My mother can cook for Africa, lol. We always look forward to the money that we'll be given. But since my mother died in November of 1989, that was the end of Christmas celebration for us. My father really tried for us, became father and mother to us(did not marry till he died in 2014) for almost 25years. The most memorable Christmas till date was 2012, my 1st with my baby. Even though I was alone with her, just looking at her face. Been a mother is the best feeling I ever had. Am forever grateful to Santa God for making me experience motherhood. This Christmas also, it's just us. My Santa can please make it more meaningful
ReplyDeleteI have over 100 cousins and 80% of them are female.so growing up Christmas was more of a reunion.The intresting thing was that most of us lived in our grandpas house at the time so we had mad fun and of course fights too.
ReplyDeleteI remember our crazy hide and seek game(some of us hide in our grandpas yam barn or grandmas goat house.)lol
We would also bring food stuff from our various kitchens and cook in empty tin tomatoe container.
I lost my mum in my teenage years so the sole responsibilty of making Christmas meal and other dishes fell on me as the first child.I missed Christmas with family last year cos of work and will be missing this years cos i cant afford to travel
I miss home but what can i do.Someone should invite me over for Christmas cos Lag got me.
Santa CEO, God bless you, biko look my side abeg, you never share reach me na. Anything will be appreciated.
