I'm trying to recall something that has happened to me that I can tag as "the best moment of my life". We all have it there Has to be this particular moment that something so amazing so extraordinary or something that just stands out in your long list of experience.
I'm not fully grown up so perhaps I haven't experienced a best moments but surely there has to be one I've had already. Maybe later to be replaced with some other amazing moment in my life.
Maybe it happened during the Covid-19 pandemic when I fell in love with a particular book series called " Diary of A wimpy Kid".
Which was a huge inspiration for me to write my first book. But Na I don't think that's it....
Hmnnnn maybe it was just a moment that i wouldn't expect like when I was watching TV or something like that. Maybe it was on my first ever birthday party when I turned 1.

My parents had this pretty big birthday party where we were staying st the time(Abuja) there was a soccer cake a creepy Nigerian Clown
and the worst Ben 10 costume you had ever saw, what more could I want?😂.
Well maybe that birthday wasn't all that great but I'm sure its in one of my lists my worst experience list.
Why? Cause of that creepy clown. Listen I no what you're thinking of course he was afraid of clowns but this one wasn't the ordinary one you see on TV no this was far worse something that could hunt your dreams for eternity. He was a Nigerian Clown. What's the difference? He's basically a 45 year old man hired to get the kids pumped up ad on the dance floor. Here's a sample of it.
"Hello.......". The kids reply. " Hi". The clown continues. "Hello children". The kids reply. " Hello uncle ". " Who wants to play a game ". The kids reply " Yesssss". "OK so now the game we are going to play you na go move around these chairs and dance until the music goes off".The clown continues. " Children ,Children!". "Yes uncle ". " Do we understand?". "Yes!!!!". So about 5 kids step forward and start playing move around the chairs until the music goes off. Then the clown starts talking as the music starts and the kids start dancing. " Yes , OK , let's go, I like your style, na wow, this children, eh henn, correct style".And all of a sudden you hear a terrible scream coming from the Speaker's the clown shouts " DJ STOP THE MUSIC!". And all the kids unfortunately take all the seats and the little boy or girl who didn't sit down in time gets to hear he clown say. "Oh oh... Everybody say Byee! Byeee!. In that weird tone that Nigerian people always use anytime they talk on the mic. Like a pastor for instance he will be talking slowly and softly and all of a sudden he's shouting at the top of his lung(probably to put in emphasis) and its weird but it always seems to work everybody even tho they weren't listening turn to the pastor and then they come back next Sunday for more.

Well anyway back to the party yeah so the clown says that and the kid looses and then they stop the music. Sounds like a game of musical chairs right? Well it is just Nigerian style. And if you ever ask a Nigerian whether he has thrown or been to this type of birthday and they say no then that person is no Nigerian.
Anyway so yeah that party and all others the same I attended were definitely not my most beautiful experience but they sure are memorable. So what again what is my best moment perhaps joining hive last month? Na it was a smart decision it I don't think I would rate it as the best moment of my life.
Anyway even tho i haven't experienced it yet I'm sure it would come to me later on in life. But if you ask me that birthday party is gonna be a close second I had pictures but there somewhere else at the moment so you can use your imagination and try to act out the events of the party there.
I hope you XL in Whatever you do.
