Good morning from this side, it's another beautiful day and I am kinda excited about writing this morning because I woke up feeling energized unlike how I woke up yesterday and some days ago.
While going through my feeds on here on Hive I stumbled on this prompt, sincerely I have been pending writing about how I spend my last weekend , because normally it is something that I should have written about but , I kept pushing it and finally a chance present itself
So I will be going with the first topic as I already said and I will be telling you all how I spent my last weekend,so I implore you and to read till the end , don't skip anything cause you definitely want to see what I have got to say.
Last Weekend was spent with Amazing people from Hive , so for few weeks a hangout date was thrown on one of the numerous Hive WhatsApp groups I am on , I don't even remember how I joined the whatsapp group but I am glad I am on it, So the talk about having a Hangout came up and I got to know that this amazing person @trojan1 from there , he was the one hosting the hangout, There he asked if i was gamed to co-chef with him ,i happily agreed to this and there out conversation started, We were to donate certain amount of HBD for refreshments on this hangout which we did, Those who were non hiver were asked to contribute an amount of 5000naira to cover up theirs
Let's just say the hangout was to bring people together , get to know those faces behind accounts and truly it was kinda amazing. So over the week before the D-day I and Trojan planned the recipe for the meals and we talked about possible games that we would likely play at the Hangout and also there was also the shopping aspect of it.
We were supposed to have a minimum of 10 persons at the hangout And according to how Trojan talked bout it , but surprisingly we had more person , we were about 12-13 persons I guess which made the day more fun, okay I am gonna tag a few persons here as I remember their usernames , @trojan1 @zitalove @iam-gifted @tenesha @king-ray @winanda @robert.grace @fashtioluwa @obaro
The others I think aren't on hive yet.
So I met amarachi who also assisted with kitchen and cleaning duties, let's just say I, Trojan, and amarachi hosted, so through via the hangout amarachi created her account, she's @robert.grace don't know if I got that correctly .
So Saturday 4th January started with me leaving my father's house early in the morning so I could go to the venue which was about an hour's and some minutes journey, I got to the gate at around past 6am and had to wait at the gate for Trojan to open his gate , after several calls to him that morning, i had to wait web i remembered he and amarachi attended a vigil together the previous night , so I stoped calling and opened my whatsapp to watch video , it was past 7am when he finally decided to call back , he apologised for missing my calls and keeping out for so long. Apology accepted, fast forward to getting inside the house and I met amarachi said hello to her and immediately we hit it off as if we had known each other for long , we started the meal preparation and all, we cleaned at same time in preparation for our guest. Hehe.
So they started arriving, Miracle was first to arrive and he and amarachi argued over movies and stuff, and even though amarachi calls herself non social , truth is she still knows how to carry people along, so to me shes cool. Soon the house was filled with These amazing persons, also I can't get over Winanda’s cake ,I was a red velvet cake and I must tell you the cake was so delicious.
So the hangout was fun filled with music, games, movies , foooood too and drinks, where got me laughing was the last part where there was a food competition amongst the guys , that got me laughing really hard, so cornelius was the winner of this competition even though he started like he couldn't do it , he was the least person i thought would emerge the winner , silently was rooting for iam-gifted hehe.
Okay that aside also we went outside to take pictures , and this was another part I really liked aside from the meal preparation part.
Sadly everyone had to go home , cos Lagos and traffic and everyone understood that.
Sunday came and I was home , had plans to go swimming with my sisters and her friends, I decided to invite amarachi and after much dragging she agreed and we all met at the pool somewhere close.it was also fun to relieve the stress after Saturday’s event which turned out to be great and also Sunday went well too and somehow I felt so happy last weekend.
I definitely want another weekend like last weekend. Hehe. So I ve attached a few of our photos from the hangout in a video, so guys enjoy the view.

You forgot to mention that 3 people came onboard via the hangout and 2 were returned back.
Lovely post and working with you was enjoyable.
I also want more of last weekend asides the stress part though lol 😂
Easter hangout is hovering though
Oh yes that's too, are they settled in now?
Not fully
Okay.... Just make sure they are
That looks like fun ! Getting new Hivers onboard is definitely an added bonus 😀
It's amazing that just Lagos probably has more Hivers than the whole of the UK. Do you all know each other, or is it just such a huge city that it's a bunch of local communities ?
Before that day we only knew each other as hivers and it was virtually, until this day we met physically for the first time.
Now that L👀ked like fun.
Great post, video/photos.❤️
