"Arrghhh" I screamed wanting to throw my pillow across the room making it hit the framed picture on the wall. I can't believe I did that. The activity of the day living in my head rent free plays over and over again, not missing a single scene. "I know it's normal to be stupid and dumb as a nineteen years old, but at the same time Adeola, how could you do this". I question myself over and over again.

Welcome to my world, I'm Adeola Ogunsanya, a Nigerian University student of the University of Lagos, the school of first choice and of Shege. I'm just like every teenager out there. I live my life in fantasy with only 0.5 percent of reality grasp.
About a min ago, I volunteered to be the sport representative of my cohort; Chinese studies under the Linguistics, African and Asian Studies~ Chinese? I know right, I'm still asking myself what I'm looking for inside the course, only if Korean was available to study. So back to my flashback. I volunteered as the sport cohort. I was informed about the Departmental Cup we'll have, also called HOD cup. But the major event of the game would be football, only boys were to play. I know right, sexism, but anyhow~~. As one of the sport rep for this department, we're to gather players. Easy, every Nigerian boy likes to play football, so it wouldn't be hard. Not knowing I was living with my brother's kind; more than 80 percent of our department boys refused to play. I thought it was only in my cohort we could call the boys pussies but it was for the whole department, only four boys out of twenty volunteered. No wahala~ headache one hit.
I reported back to the head of sports of LAAS (Linguistics, African and Asian Studies) department. He told me find a solution. A whole fresher like me, what solution should I come up with, was I here for the previous games, did I know how you played them. I then suggested borrowing players.
