A Birthday by the Pool


Joab’s birthday was a mix of fun and frustration for me. Everyone was splashing around in the pool, but I couldn’t join because, well, it was that time of the month. Instead, I spent my time taking photos—capturing the fun instead of being in it. Even though I couldn’t swim, I still enjoyed the day because it gave me the chance to bond with others. Sometimes, it’s the connections we make that matter more than the activities themselves.

A Slice of Happiness with Friends

Life has a funny way of creating unforgettable memories in the simplest moments. After class, Aldwin, Clarence, and I decided to squeeze into a photobooth, laughing so hard that our sides ached. Each snapshot told its own story of fun and friendship. As the day continued, we shared ice cream and endless laughter, making every second feel special. It was a day where time slowed down, and everything just felt right—until I realized I spent all my money! But honestly, with moments like these, who needs savings?

A Day of Dancing and Celebrations

     The day was packed with memories that will stay with me forever. In the morning, our class competed in a cultural dance competition—the last one before we graduate as Grade 12 students. We only practiced for a week, but we gave it our all. For a moment, we thought we’d won, only to find out later we didn’t! Still, it was a blast, and we couldn’t stop laughing at our confidence.      Later that evening, we celebrated my brother's birthday. It was a rare moment for the family to bond since we’re all so busy. We had fun outdoors, took turns in the photobooth, and shared stories over food. I even brought along two friends, partly so they could join us but mostly so they could help me get permission for another overnight! HAHAHA! It was chaotic, fun, and absolutely unforgettable.

Dancing in the Rain

This day was pure magic. My friends and I stayed overnight at Ada’s house to work on our research paper, but they also helped me with my debut photoshoot. It started raining heavily, but instead of stopping, they embraced the weather and joined me outside. For the first time in my life, I got completely soaked in the rain, laughing and posing for photos. Walking in the rain with them felt so freeing, and it turned into one of the happiest moments of my life. I’ll always be thankful for friends who make even the rain feel like a celebration.
