Happy Birthday to Myself and I

I am a blessed member of a happy home, proud Pisces, third among siblings, second among sons; like three sons though.

March 5th happens to be the day God finally chose, some years ago, to create me through the help of my parents; they are the most blessed among all.

I cherish this day so much, though it is assumed as a normal day like every other days, but trust me there is something unique about it.

You know i sat a while on the corner of a balcony pavement at my apartment one wonderful and ever to remember Saturday evening, which happens to be yesterday; actually a friend of mine approached towards my apartment and said to me that i looked like a lost lonely bird in the middle of nowhere, wondering how everything came to be.

But before that friend of mine came close, i was thinking about how privileged i was and still to be among the millions of people born into this world on this unique day, and even those yet to be born. Doesn't it seem so miraculous? Yes it does!

I can't wait to read all the stuffs or rather essays my students will write regarding my birthday and wishes. Oh, i guess i haven't told you that i am a teacher and i have students, do you know the interesting part of it? They happen to be females, like seriously i don't know what you are thinking right now.

I teach in a girls boarding school, and on Friday the third of March; which was the day my twin sister Rosebud did her birthday celebration. Please do not ever give it a thought on how possible that is.

Rosebud happens to be my closest female friend back in my school days, we were born in the same year, month and the only difference in age is just the two days gap. Did i say just?

Just before i left the SS2 class which i taught government on that Friday, i gave them an assignment which they are meant to submit tomorrow being Monday. The assignment was to write an essay to their government teacher (me), wishing him a happy birthday as he celebrates his birthday on the 5th of March, and how privileged they are to have him as their teacher with not less than 100 words.

Interesting as it may sound, despite the fact that i was actually expecting it from some of the students and though i pretended to be deaf. Some students were asking if they should include 'love quotes and affectionate write ups'.

My preparation for my birthdays have never been a big deal, sometimes its never a deal when there is no preparation. I must have to say that i am not that kind of a birthday celebration freak, but giving thanks to God is always a necessity and then other exceptional good things that i could do.

My hustle is pure, so it will pay now or later. Am optimistic about that, you know nothing good comes easy.

My dad didn't fail on his routine today, like seriously, he does this every of my birthday. He always try to be the first to remind me of my birthday and tell me his wishes for me, likewise my mum who do come second or third. Facebook is always in line of competing with my dad.

Thanks to my dad and mum, Facebook as well. Oh, and there are more in line which i need to thank, my siblings you guys are my world; good friends involved.

How can i forget my banks, even though they do disappoint sometimes. Thanks Fidelity bank and other of my banks; but i wish you guys can credit my accounts with reasonable amount instead.

And the last person i should thank so much as i conclude, the person i love so dearly, Father God in Heaven. For giving me a life and people who are taking care of it. Am grateful, glad and privileged. Thank you Lord.

I am OAJ, and i love you all.
