Neoxian City: Writing Prompt #22 – WINNERS

Dear Hivers,

Sometimes we do things knowing that the outcome can be risky but we do them anyway. Other times things happen to us and we wonder why we were placed in these situations. When we reflect, whether we can smile or not our unique experiences help us to learn something.

My unforgettable memory of a crush by @flourishandflora

"just got back from my service year in my Nation, and guess what? My long-time crush, the guy I’ve been crushing on since my university days, popped back from the United States out of nowhere! We stumbled upon each other on Facebook and immediately fixed a date to meet up. I was so excited that I turned my wardrobe upside down searching for the perfect outfit. I finally settled on this fabulous new trouser jeans that I couldn’t wait to show off. If I had known this trouser would create a funny memory, I wouldn't have picked that particular one.”.

The Accidental Comedy of Zoom Meetings by @vickoly

One of the funniest yet strangeest experiences I've had was during the COVID-19 lockdown. Most people were made to stay indoors and were unable to go to their various jobs, but luckily for me, I could because I at the time work at a manufacturing company that produces sacks and baggings for different food manufacturing companies around the country. However, not everyone amongst us was allowed to work except those who work in the factory directly.

A mischievous act that almost put me in a big trouble by @burlarj

If you are looking for a troublesome child, search no more because the person writing this post is in Grade 1 when it comes to stubbornness, it is that thing they ask me not to do that I always want to do, even if I was not interested in it before, the moment you say don't do it, I would become curious and become interested in doing it... So the trick is not to tell me not to try it.

A Night To Remember. by @george-dee

It could have been my last day, and George might just be a memory to those who knew him then. Sometimes, life isn't all about fun, and there are moments in life that carry a lot of weight in our hearts. I was young and couldn't do anything about the experience, but I can confidently say it's one of the things that shaped me into the adult I am today

A Night at the Gate: The Consequences of Assumptions by @adeyemidrey

In the morning of the journey, I reminded her once again. Everything seemed set. I met up with the other three members, and we collected our Steemjet-branded shirts. Our first stop was the University of Ibadan, where we met with the school’s management to discuss our agenda. They were kind enough to permit us to speak to the students. We talked to the available students on campus, explaining what Steemit was and how it could benefit them. Many of them were interested, with some even agreeing to sign up right on the spot.
