The Diary Game || MY DAY: BUSY AND STRESSFUL YET NOT BROKEN || 27/04/2026

Shot from Samsung A05 - Ecumenical Planning Committee Meeting

Greetings to everyone. How are you all doing? God bless you all and give you your desires in Jesus Christ's name, AMEN21X.

There are days we are pressed so much with loads of engagements such as I had today. The family on my neck at the moment, school as a teacher and as student, and still responding to ecumenical meetings before going out to despatch letters for the Christians Council of Nigeria (CCN) Akwa Ibom State Chapter which I will explain in detail.

• School Runs
• Ecumenical meeting
• Depatching letters
• Fetching Water and
• Dumping Refuse

When school resumes, the routine remains preparing my son and taking him to school, and myself as a teacher, chaplain and a student of the university of Uyo, it is on me to ensure that I achieve the morning runs with respect to time. Waking up very early is where the success of the day begins.

At 5am, I was awake, said my prayers, and straight to the kitchen to make breakfast and then bathed my boy. About 7:12am, I was already on the road to school and got to the Presbyterian International Nursery and Primary school, Ewet Housing Estate, Uyo at exactly 7:25am i checked around the school, looked through the time book, and the teachers who came early. Those who arrived late I drew their attention with strong warning “you can't come to this school late, you're a teacher to show example to this pupils”. I was serious to the point of not answering their greetings immediately. We need to be serious. Our responsibility is to train the chi.children, that's what their parent paid for. “I'm sorry sir” they responded with remorse.

School Hours

School assembly commenced at 7:45am and ended around 8:03am.

While the children matched to their respective classes, I had a brief meeting with the teachers to readdress that we will not condone lateness this term. The meeting ended well as they smiled to the class to resume their teaching assignments.

I was in school until 2pm , and we dismissed it. I joined the school to Glass church for an ecumenical meeting that long started. My permission to be part of the meeting later than the stipulated time slated was sustained. We met to plan for a one day CCN conference coming up next month. After the adjournment, I was told to go around with the youth leader and depatch letters of notification to head of churches and other groups involved.

Ecumenism - Meeting to plan for Conference

By this time, I haven't eaten yet for the day. I was hungry as we navigated toward Aka Road, Uyo, we saw egg rolls by the roadside, and I bought it to blend with mineral. This was how my strength was revived. From there we went to tje Roman Catholic Church to drop a letter with the Bishop of Uyo Diocese but unfortunately we met his absence, but we gave those working with him to keep for him after waiting for him for some minutes and he didn't come back.

Refueling myself before going to see tje Bishop of Uyo Diocese, Roman Catholic Church

4:56pm. met us there in the Catholic premises. While we were going out, I entered the church, although i am not a member of the Catholic denomination, but I respect the churches a lot. I prayed inside the church for about 1 minute and left fulfilled. I will soon share the testimony when it happens (what I prayed for).

I was home around 6:07pm, my wife and my son welcomed me. I was thinking of resting, but the water board company distributed water a few minutes before I got home, as I was told. On knowing the implications of not fetching the water at that time, positively moved to fetch. There was no drop of water in the house.

Fetching Water before going to dump Refuse

I was done filling every water container. I rested while my wife brought food for me. I ate, refreshed before I engaged myself to clean up when potato 🥔 crops had grown. I packed it with other waste around the compound and went to the designated dumping station area in my area.

I used the later part of the evening to watch the match between Manchester United vs Brentford, which ended 2 goals to 1 in favour of the Reds to keep their European spot in the Premier League table alive. I wrote “my dairy game” and then slept after reading for examinations until sleep took over me.

Food for the day

it was a busy day that i got engaged from morning - school runs and from to ecumenical meeting in the afternoon. I was asked to go with the youth leader to share letters, went home to fetch water, clean the compound and gathered the waste to the dumping ground and then returned home to have recreation with premier league watching with my phone until I called it a night but not without reading for examinations.

I HOPE YOU SHARE IN MY DAY - THANK YOU 😊
