4 "Really?" Monica asked her Fiance, Ben, "yes, the guy walked up to me and said 'I thought it was mine' and I was like seriously..... But he just left in shame" Ben said grinning, "that's funny, how could someone steal and tell such a lie......", "welcome to the country Babe" Ben said, "I have been in the country for six years now so you don't have to welcome me" Monica said playfully, "I have been here my whole life and trust me, It changes everyday" Ben said then glanced at the paper work in front of her, "who is Choo?" he asked, "she's my student, something happened in school today", "did she die?" he asked looking afraid, "no.... Why would you even think that?", "I'm sorry.... I thought... ", "don't ever think of anything evil concerning anyone especially my student" she said sternly, "okay, I'm sorry.....  So what happened?&

5 Choo tried to keep her eyes open in the class but she was so tired and all she wanted was to sleep but she didn't want to draw any attention to herself. She could not sleep at night because of the nightmares so she has taken Nescafe to keep her awake throughout the night and it had worked for her. She started dozing and before she could get a hold of herself, she slept off in the class. Two hours later, the class was in pandemonium as Choo was screaming, "leave me alone!", the class prefect went to the staff room and called the attention of the teachers. The teachers left what they were doing and followed her to her class, a male teacher held Choo who looked like she was having a seizure while a female teacher assisted him to carry her to the Medical Center. Choo was stabilized after she was given injection. Mrs. Pepper called Choo's parents to come and pick her up from school. Miss Monica went to meet Mrs. Pepper before Choo's parents arrived, "we hav

Choo closed her book after reading for several hours since she got back from school. Reading had become the only thing she knew how to do best, it was her companion and it helped her get over the stress of each day. She remembered what had happened in the school, she didn't wish to be like this but she couldn't find the strength to change. The new teacher had been obviously pissed at her and she had loved the way the new teacher taught and treated them in class. Though, she was not happy that Miss Anita had resigned from the school because of her. Miss Anita was one of the few people that really loved her and wanted to treat her like she was a normal person but she was not. Her mind drifted away from Miss Anita to her friend, Alice. She was expecting Alice and wished she would not always come to visit her to at night. She looked at her bed and saw Alice sitting on the bed, "why were you late Alice?" she asked happily as she sat beside Alice, "I'm sorr

EXERCISING THE MIND

Exercising the mind One of the major ways to improve your mental ability is to keep the mind active and this can be achieved by exercising the mind. Sometimes we let our mind remain passive because we don’t have any major exam or task before us. This would only decrease the mental capability of a person. We have brilliant children in the world today that are brilliant because they exercised their minds daily. As an adult, you also have to exercise your mind too. The question is : how do I exercise my mind? The answer to this question lies in MR. WELTS Memorize : one major way to exercise the mind is to memorize. You can play memory games on your phones and pc to keep your mind active. You could decide to memorize your mobile number, account number, and so on. Keeping things in your memory would keep your mind active. Read : we can‘t overemphasize the importance of reading in this life. Reading also helps to keep your brain working hence it keeps the mind active. Reading would als

The Right Reader

There’s a popular saying that  “readers are leaders”. I would rephrase this by saying, “reading the right books would help you to be the right leader”. It is good to read books, however, it is best to read the right books. A person preparing for a biology examination can’t lead in that exam if he or she reads law books. It is like using a drug prescribed for malaria to cure tuberculosis; that is obviously not going to cure tuberculosis. We have readers that are not reading rightly and it is really affecting them. Mind you, you should understand that reading other books is not totally wrong but you should set your priorities right. I am a writer, so I would read books that would help me become a better writer and improve daily but while I was in the university studying microbiology, I read my course books more than I read other books. A surgeon who is about to perform an operation would not read books that would not help him/ her or that are not related to the operation. In this year

 2 Mrs Pepper was on a call when Miss Monica knocked and entered her office, "I will call you back" she said and hung up when she saw Miss Monica's furious look, "what's the problem Miss Monica?" she asked, "it's one of my student.....  She is very brilliant but.... " Mrs. Pepper interrupted her, "it's Choo, right?" she asked and Miss Monica became calm, "y-es.... How did you know that?" she asked, Mrs. Pepper sighed deeply, "sit down Miss Monica " Miss Monica looked at the seat and remembered she was standing, she sat down after saying a quiet thanks to Mrs Pepper. Mrs Pepper continued after she sat down, "Choo has been like that since she was admitted into the school " Mrs Pepper said soberly and pitifully, Miss Monica was shocked, "since when?" she asked, "that's like ten years ago" Mrs Pepper said, "what!!" Miss Monica exclaimed, "we used to have a teacher h
