Hello wonderful people in this amazing community, hope your week has been pleasant? Welcome to another exciting edition of hive learners featured contest.
Right from childhood, I love anything that deals with academics, I can devote all my time into it most especially calculations because I love Mathematics and it's my best subject. People that know me very well know that I don't play with Maths and I'm always happy whenever someone I'm teaching is assimilating well. So anything academics count me in, even if I'm asleep and I was woken up, I will still put all my best into whatever I'm delegated to do.
But I was surprised sometimes ago in my former place of work when I was appointed to be the mistress in charge of drama and choreography for the school's founders day anniversary.
I thought the administration officer was joking and when I went to meet her, she said she purposely switched me from my comfort zone which is academics (I'm the mistress in charge of the science club) to drama.
She said she wants all the staff to be fully involved and to take up new roles. She said she doesn't want anyone to be in their comfort zone at all for the event, that was why all staff were given new assignments. Then she told me that she knows that I can adapt and will come out with something reasonable for the occasion. She indeed encouraged me that day but I wasn't motivated at all.
I went blank immediately, I was lost and dumbfounded because I didn't know where to start from. When I regained myself, I felt like crying plus I was confused and sadden as well by the great commitment given to me. For weeks I didn't know what to do, no idea at all because drama wasn't my thing. Though I like watching movies but to be in charge of drama for an event was the last thing that I can ever think ofðŸ˜.
The Principal and VP were on my neck, but I was giving excuses here and there just to cover up until I got fed up by their disturbance and determined to come up with anything whether pleasant or not.
I forced myself to imagine a playlet and thankfully through the help of my sisters I was able to visualize it and with the collective efforts of the senior students, I was able to write a playlet for the occasion and as well look for someone to help me teach the students choreography which they presented on the school's founders day anniversary.
On the long run, the occasion was a success but I can't lie the drama group wasn't doing well at first. I was pushed to the wall to involve myself in that drama and I don't have the choice than to commit myself to it.
Although I can't say I got involved 100% because I later sake for help. I involved my sisters and a lady in my church when I noticed I wasn't fully committed but I tried my best and it ended well.
