<p>I have so many happy events in my life that makes me happy whenever I remember them but let me choose to talk about when I won a scholarship. </p><p>The scholarship came at the time when I needed it most. I know I had sat for the exa,s but the names were yet to be published. I was done with my school and was awaiting to be posted for the national youth service corps scheme  which is a compulsory scheme for all graduates in NIGERIA. Daddy had no money on him as he had lost his job the previous year and I was really wondering where on earth I would get the money to proceed and even do my clearance in school</p><p>That fateful day, two weeks to my NYSC, I was at home when someone called me on phone that he saw my name published on one of the national dailies. Excitedly, I called my dad and asked him to purchase one of the dailies and confirm if what I heard was true. He called me some minutes back to tell me it was a fact. I immediately jumped into a bus down to my school, and I saw my name on the school notice board with lots of happy faces with congratulations on their lips. Oh my goodness, I felt like a celebrity that day. You should have seen me chuckling from ear to ear as I couldn't hide my excitement. The money was paid into my account and it made my service year so smooth.</p><p>Talking about it still makes me smile. That is one of the best things that has ever happened to me.</p>
