I Want To Run Away From Home by Girlee(f): 10:33pm On Jun 09, 2023
I'm just an eighteen years old female child who would be turning nineteen in Five months time.
I'm a little girl with the brains of a wise old man.
I'm a counselor, motivational speaker, inspirational writer and an upcoming writer.
Nobody knows me as "Girlee"; not even me. I know that's stupid. I just had to come up with this "Girlee" I really don't fancy.
For some reasons I still can't decipher, I couldn't create an account here with my actual "social media" name (still my real name though).
I've counselled the married, singles and those in courtship. I've motivated so many and inspired a whole lot on the planet and things turned out great for them. But the thing is: who will and can counsel the counselor?

Tonight, I'm broken as I've never been before.
I've sat for jamb thrice now and in all, I scored above 200.
Why didn't I gain admission?

Continuation...

I'm just not in the mood so I won't be telling much stories...

Last year, depression almost killed me if not for the saving grace of God.
I wrote jamb, scored 225. Took delta state university's post utme form and scored 68. I wasn't admitted.
As I so much didn't want to stay at home for another year, I called my dad and asked him to send me money for a change of institute, he declined.
He was like "abeg! Wait for another year, I nor get shi shi". Yeah, I know he's not a literate but I expected that he understands the value of education but he doesn't.

I cried my eyes out for months and had to take up a job as a waitress so i could afford this year's jamb reg fee.
I took jamb again and scored 212. All glory to God because I never prepared. I worked from 8am till 10pm and sometimes till 11pm. My boss then even turned me to a dish washer.
Salary was 20k. 20k that my dad can pay me monthly but he was okay with that.

Okay...
I'm broke and jobless now because I want to prepare well for my upcoming Uniben's post utme.
I asked him for just 2,500 to buy past question but this was his reply:
"2,500 for wetin? I nor get oo. E be like you go relax and try again next year or just wait make you mature then you marry".

I shouted at him until I lost my voice, I cried and I'm like God why??

Don't feel bad about all these... This stage of your life, it will seem as though if you don't pass jamb n gain admission life is over! I understand that.

If you reside in lagos, let me know... let's start by sorting d issue of job now, then school by preparing for another jamb, then get you to be working while schooling to support yourself...

[I'm pained!
I just want to know "how people run away from home".
I know I've got nowhere to go to and no one to run to but all I can think of right now is how I must leave this house, the negative vibes, the toxicity and hate.

My dad bought so many bags of cement, trips of sand to build his house. How much did I ask for?

I can't do what my mates are doing in the street because I just can't. If not, I just might have been one of those underaged prostitutes or thieves.
God has so much helped me because I've thought of so many crazy things to do but Christ in me won't allow it.

I want to be free abeg!

Your story no gel, but maybe that's cos you're "18".

The best way to run away from home is to carry your bag and go to one of those Motor Parks at Siluko Road, Ramat Park or Akpakpava.
But the question is : to where?
Where are you running to?

The street is cruel.
The choice is between staying in your father's house and grinding your way through and embracing the street — which you're currently seeking encouragement to do.

And I know you've since made your choice.
Good luck.

The choice is between staying in your comfort zone and grinding your way through or doing what you said your mates are doing.

Good luck.

I don't know what you meant by "your story nor get gel"
While some would call it one minute madness, I'd say that was my one minute cry out.
I've always endured this but tonight, I thought of writing it and sharing it as a post instead of keeping it locked in my diary.
Somehow, I regret sharing it on here but it's irreversible already.

I will pray, God will hear me one day and send me an angel.
I won't run away from home. Yeah! Coz the street is cruel. Sometimes, home is too but I'd rather endure the cruelty from home than from the street.
I know I belong in a home, a family and not on the street.
I'll be fine sha😒...
In God I trust, He always comes through for His own

Have you really thought about your choice of course of study and the university you want to go.Some universities will favor you(and make admission easier)more than others.Consider your state of origin.

Keep pushing, don't give up.Prepare well for your next exam.Wish you all the best.

Why prepare for another jamb when she only needs to write a post UME at the moment?

There is an aspect I want you to look into that might hold the answer to your quest!

How resourceful are you at home (to your dad)? By this I mean if he is the type that run his business, find a way to be of help to him in the day to day running of the business.

But if he is a salary earner, you need to find a way to be very resourceful in the home keeping aspects: younger kids academic coaching, school home work assistant to them, cooking, washing of his clothes etc.

This can motivate him to be of more help to you in your academic pursuit. I am saying this because of his assertion that shows he is in a hurry for you to get married which implied that he sees you as a burden!

HmmmmmmSad truth😥😥😥😥😥 This real-life story of Uncle Owusu, after living in the UK for 38 years and at the age of 71, Uncle Owusu finally relocated to Ghana this year—to live in his 6-bedroom mansion which took him 9 years to complete.

Apparently, now in Ghana and in his mansion, Uncle Owusu lives in the living room of the house while his caretaker lives upstairs in his huge master bedroom. This is because Uncle Owusu cannot climb the stairs without the help of another person. Even with help, it will take him 15 minutes to make the climb.

As such, Uncle Owusu has decided to stay downstairs of his mansion (in the living room) as all 6 bedrooms are upstairs. The house has a living room, toilet, and kitchen downstairs and 3 rooms on the first floor, and another 3 (including the master bedroom) on the second/last floor.

This is surely not how Uncle Owusu anticipated his retirement. But that is the reality of his journey. This will be the life of many other Africans living abroad—building mansions back home without caring about their old age.

In fact, if you are building a dream house for yourself to live in and by 50 years that house is not done, forget it.

Uncle Owusu almost wasted 38 years of his life doing menial jobs abroad hoping to go and retire back home in his mansion and enjoy life. Now, he has no life to enjoy and someone is really enjoying the mansion.

Like most aged persons, Uncle Owusu is not even able to enjoy a bottle of malt at his age—because that will shoot up his sugar level. Yet, he said he was working hard all his life to enjoy his best life which included eating and drinking the finest when he retires.

Now, he is only able to eat salads—and even that, without dressing. He cannot even chew any of the fine meat out there without his cholesterol sending warning signs.

How is this life and the great retirement? Yet, this will be the life of more than half of us.

The solution is to take mini-retirements now and enjoy your life and luxury now.

Life starts when you start.

Like someone also said, try and be helpful with your dad's business so he doesn't just see you as a burden and then clear your mind from the thoughts of how you secondary school colleagues are fairing. Life no be 100m race.. as you said you're a Christian just Continue being prayerful and most important allow love to fill your heart❤
