The Diary Game: Attending Wedding Ceremony With My Friend 19.07.2025

Hello fam, happy Sunday to you all. In Nigeria we say Saturdays are for weddings and Owambe, it was my own turn to grace my friend's wedding on Saturday, so let's journey together back to how it all went down.

So, In the morning, I was already at the bus stop so that I could be picked up by the bus that was assigned for us to come pick us to the wedding ceremony. It wasn't a long distance journey just that they wanted everyone including the ones that did not have the transport fare to also be carried along, I went there with my main guy, Samuel.

As we got there, the bride came and welcomed us then ushered us to our seats, the event was so colourful, the Association of Stylists came out to support our very own member. Foods and everything were given to us to make us comfortable, but someone like me, I don't like eating where we have so many people watching so I took mine as takeaway and concentrated on what took me to the event.

Akwa Ibom traditional marriage ceremony is one you will go early and go back home late. This was the case anyways, so since I was already taking the weekend off to have time for myself, I did not even bother if I go back home late or not, I just wanted to be there for our member who will for nothing stay back from people's events, she is so supportive, infact when I came to Uyo early, she was the one that do support me with some tips to survive with.

So when night came and everything was done, though some people had left to attend to other things, some of us that stayed back were being taken back to our house, I was looking at the road and taking pictures, I might go back there some other time to buy palm-oil in large quantities.

Before we arrived home, it was very late, so I bathed and went outside to stroll in the night cold, I enjoyed it, I had to Branch my favorite Hausa guy place and buy the suya, I was eating it while strolling and still playing my songs on my phone.

When I strolled to the end of the road, I came back home and I was sweating again, so just showered and returned back to my room, there I wrote my diary and then I watched TV so that I will sleep early and that was just it my friends.
