I wanted to be a priest

How did i get into the seminary? I had never thought of joining a seminary in fact i din't even know about a seminary. So here comes my elder brother who joins a seminary. He was just one year a head of me. He had never even encouraged me to join a seminary; however, my late dad had been a teacher there and used to show us seminarians playing their bras band though was not even moved to join the seminary.

Basically i remember i was with a friend whom we now call Franswa we go to the parish to collect and fill forms so that we could be both admitted in a seminary. At the back of my mind i knew my brother was studying in a seminary and had never even bothered to as him how it's what they do there!! My friend Francis also had his elder brother in a seminary. So it's like both of us were just following what our elder brothers were doing! Stupid me!

We do interviews and of course i passed with my boy Francis. We both go. Surprisingly the priests knew me and knew what i was.
When i reached in Senior one i suddenly develop a devotion i don't know how to call but i felt i should be a catholic priest- but could i manage!

What took my vocation away i happened to be one of the stubborn guys in class but i could not be chased coz i was told i was too young i had to be jumpy and was even bright though i had never been the 1st in class.
I was so talkative in class but the class monitor was my Friend- He's called Norman So one one could ever write me among the shouters. Sometimes i would instead tell Norman what shouters to write!!

By S.2 i never wanted to be a priest anymore. I had a bad record of being Chicky in class though i was not punished. by S.3 i had developed a wish to be a lawyer now but when i reached A Level i could not get the points for even self sponsorship at university as a lawyer! I end up doing IT!

To me i din't know what IT was so just study....did i do it by accident then? But IT is good.

I lost the desire to be a priest just because i thought priests were always harassing me not knowing they were helping me to be better.

how about my friend Francis? hahahahahaha the guy was chased from the seminary and could not even do his A Level there. Our elder brothers? Francis' elder brother failed to make also to priesthood, my elder brother did and i wish him success.

WHAT KEEPS ME MOVING


Set your standards high for u deserve the best
Try for what you want and never settle for anything less.
Believe in your self no matter what you choose,
keep a winning attitude and you will never lose,
Think about your aspirations but don't worry if u stray, Because what matters most is what you have learned all the way.
Take all you have to be the best To be what u can be....
See above the clouds, Think positively.............And let your dreams set u free.

When u r feeling down , Be inspired by your problems for they are your encouragement
And be thankful for what you are. Very encouraging words for me and you my guest.

Was well taught how to work not how to enjoy money that is already worked for. This element i appreciate so much because i believe this is what makes me think hard, fast and brightly.

Above all God and friends keeps me safe and to what i am.

ATMS

One thing that gets my nuts off!! several times i go to an ATM. I have to line up as if i am getting dimes for free.. In the real sense i am going to reduce my account and i have to line up!!

I have to be hit by sunshine then it's worse when i see guys just over taking the lines i get so so pissed! Getting to the ATM someone is behind me waiting to get on after me.
Get on after me- do you have to first see how i am doing my transactions.

If you are one guy that over takes people who line up at ATMs please excuse me learn to be patient!!
