what I loved.
As a child I loved music, I mostly listened to Nigeria music because it had a lot of meaning. I always loved the music in the Nigeria movies, it always told the truth of the situations the actors and actresses were in. Sometimes when in a bad mood, recalling a beautiful song got me to smile again. In my country or rather were I lived we loved telling each other stories especially in school and wasn't like gossiping about what happened yesterday or last year. It actually were real and fictional stories our granparents told us, when we get together we tell each and what I loved most about it is that everyone always sat attentively listening to the story, gasping when something horrible happened or singing along to the song in the story. My friends and I always remembered each others stories through the songs. We all loved telling stories everyday even coming up with our own stories, it was creativity in disguise because we never though we were being creative, we just knew it was a normal thing to do among ourselves. I love how we all seem interested in every little thing, I took that for granted it was normal to me so it did not seem important. Now I wish I could go back in time and cherish every moment and pay close attention to every story they told. I say this because now I can't remember most of the stories told, I would love to but I can't because my enviroment has changed and as adviced I have adapted to my new environment. I am happy I had no problem getting used to new things but they made me realized how special my freinds and every other thing in Cameroon was. you never know how special something is until you lose it.
