Throwback On A Gas Crisis Ordeal.

The rate at which gas finishes in school is alarming, it should even be researched in schools as a project topic because to me it's now a case study. So sorry for bothering you with that, Hello everyone how's your day going?, hope you are all doing perfectly fine?, Well it's so good to be here again, I have gone through some entries on throw back Thursdays and the memories are so interesting.

And for today am not doing much, am just recycling over the period of times my gas last, it actually needs a time tracker to monitor if those selling the gas are the one cheating me or I am the one that is cheating myself because I too don't understand again, while looking for what to share as a significant memory for this Thursday I remembered a time in school when I was stranded and helpless because of this same gas issue and it took only the grace of God to have come out of that situation.

A normal student life always have this gas issue but when it happens to you, at that point you would think that you are the only one experiencing such infact it would not be funny then but after such experience you would just be laughing over what transpired. So I was going about my normal routine, I think at that period it was a dried season for me, I was not even been voted on Hive at that time left alone to say that I would depend on my work online, I had nothing on me and I was eating or would I say repeating rice everyday.

You hearing rice you would think it's better eating that rice everyday but it was like punishment to me because I didn't have ingredients to cook it, it was just red oil, salt, rice and a little maggi, I didn't even have much maggi left I was managing the little piece of maggi and I didn't put it to taste out, I put it out of fulfilling all righteousness, I had no tomatoes or onions and I am not the kind of person that like begging my neighbors for things I don't have because they are students like me and they are likewise managing anything they have.

So in view of all I was going through, I went to lectures that very day on an empty belly not because I was fasting but because I wanted to manage and eat once that day, that was my calculation for food time table that week, so I came back from lectures in the evening and started cooking, I have put water for rice on gas and was removing dirty from the rice when my gas started reducing slowly and I because alarmed, I was praying in my mind that the gas would take me till I finish cooking so I poured the rice inside the warm water, I didn't allow the water to boil because I was trying to manage the gas as well, at the point of it parboiling slowly the gas finished and that was when my heart broke.

In summary of the whole situation I ended up borrowing #200 from the class money that was with me (because I am a course representative) to buy charcoal and cook food that day, it was after two days that God sent a helper my way and I was able to refill my gas again.

That was my ordeal and uptill today It's still fresh like it was yesterday, thank you very much, I love, honour and appreciate you 🥰✌️,
I still remain your favorite girl @graceze.
