RE: Sam’s Hangout #78-”ADULT STRUGGLES”

Walking down the street and having kids say "Aunty good morning" has been my always greatest reality check to adulthood.😄
Like,when did I get here?🤲
I mean, I've always wanted to be grown,to feel grown and be treated like a grown-up just like my other older siblings but it feels the part where responsibility start setting in was always left out of the picture. Now I have to start making important decisions without my mom or any older person telling me "this is what you have to do"
And the bills😩
Ugh.
Having enough to take care of ourselves and remembering you also have to get a spare for others around you can be so demanding especially with how tough everywhere is at the moment. Sometimes makes me wish, I didn't grow but life comes in phases. This is time for the adult phase and there's no backing out I guess.
I have a potion that can turn you to a child, like 10-15years minus your current age, all those bills and responsibilities will disappear once and you will be a baby again. What do you think
It's giving "burn the witch!"😂
lol na help i wan help you o, which one is burn the witch ehn.
make i quickly disappear before they actually burn me
😂
Come here,we go taste that portion on you first.
already did, I'm 10 years old currently. you don't need evidence o
Oya give me the one of 5 years so you can still be my senior
See thief
Show proof sir
This kind help, na you go use the portion first now
And you didn't use it for urself ? 😂
😁😁😁
"Na lie, burn the witch...burn the witch"
Mind yourself now😂
Bribe me 😹😹
What's your TikTok😂
Lol... potion...so you are the Gaius and Merlin of our time
You remember the portion he gave Merlin that time
how do you know my last two name.
oh those potion that can turn into an old man and back to the young boy
Okafor. That is your last name
I swear, me sef be wan turn into a small kid again... Cause I still don't get how adulthood got to sneak in😞😞.
There are times I watch this kids with no worries at all, and I would just be like, God,can I live without worries too🤦.
As responsibilities take plenty, na him bills sef dey choking. This adult phase, omo na be play play phase at all.
You miss the old good days when all you think about is good, play and sleep 😴
Aswear bro...
Tell me you don't miss it..
Very good days, where all you just do is to play and go meet Momma for food🥺
Adulthood! You do this one 🤦
Maybe I'm missing it more than you do
But what can I do
😏
There's absolutely nothing you can do...you especially 😁😁.
Just keep going and have faith. 🤝
🏃🏃
I did not ask you to run o..
🏃🏃🏃🏃
I know you won't listen.
I miss the time when I play in the rain with no worries
Sometimes I just wanna sleep meet food, do things I love without feeling there is responsibility to take care of ,lol
If wishes were....🤦
Or if dreams were....🤦

Responsibilities will even make you forget you were once a responsibility
Eiii!
So true.
You get
I thought about becoming a kid again when my kids wanted to frustrate me 🤣🤣
So, it will be your turn to frustrate her as well or frustrate someone older than you 😁😁
Wahala for adulthood o
😁😁
Of course, you can live without worries. God actually want us to live freely like the children so we can rely on Him because why not? We are all helpless and we need His help.
Huhm, I love that angle you are coming from. We should let go and trust fully in God. Just like kid's do, living life simply.
💗
Absolutely 👍
Thanks Mama.
I definitely miss when we had nothing to worry about and just live our lives but now we worry about everything
😂😂😂😂😂
Children dey remind you say you be adult oo by greeting you.
Incase you won forget 😂😂😂😂
The greeting de whyn me dieeee😂
And they'll add "what did you buy?"
Eiii
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Those children deserve an award oo
They need to leave us alone instead
That's what you did to those adults oo
Na turn by turn
😩
My tears have full bucket
😂😂😂😂
Go empty the bucket bring am back.
En never finish en work.
Thank you Jare
Na turn by turn

😂😂😂
Abi
Leave as how
They are doing what you also did when you were young now
Na karma 😁
Shhh😂
Did you see me when I was doing it?
We all did!!!!
Except if you be deaf and dumb... even with that there's signal signs 😂😂😂
What our mother do say then, you will understand later. We now understand 😂
You get 😂😂😂
Sehbi yougo marry🤣🤣
Law of karma they say🤔
Yes now...what goes around comes around
I can only imagine 🤔
Vivid imagination 😂
Call igwe for them 😂
No be like 😂
What did you buy
Responsibility from dey set in small small
Whenever I go out to work , I will be like all these money is not mine oo bcos on my way it's for sure I buy my niece and nephew something out of it ooo. They target anything I carry as soon as I get home😆
They are already preparing you for motherhood... imagine when you now give birth, your kids will also do the same thing
We also did sane things back then, always targeting our parents bag as soon as they arrive
The way they check your bag ehn
Buy this buy that nodey finish from their dictionary
The funny thing In the face of our parents we still be pikin
That's life 😂😂
same as your kids will be when they are adult. it is a cycle
When you start hearing ma, forget it thats a grown woman😁
No be lie 😂😂😂
Being an adult is not easy at all. Those kids will always remind you that you've grown and you should buy them something just as others did when you were small.
You're right dear.
Exactly....na turn
Yea
this we can't escape, it is like karma, expect 2x of what you did to your parent
Honestly oo. Sometimes we will be asking did I do this to my parents.
that is the funniest part, we won't even remember all we did yet children of nowadays are extra stubborn, it will take grace and discipline to handle them
Serious grace and discipline oo. They are extremely stubborn oo
sometimes I do imagine how they are built differently, they are more smarter, sharper and even came with some boldness that we never had back in the days and it is really scary.
Exactly
Send your location, I need to hug you for like 3 hours straight because you've said it all🫂🫂🫂🫂
3 hours?? You want to break my record?
I can't allow that
On no!! this got me laughing for real😂😂😂
Continue laughing like that ooo
Don't come and break my hugging record 😹😹
This man 😂
Why are you running around in circles?
She's planning to break my record, I can't allow that now
Wahalaaad 😂🤣
Awwwn 🥹
I'm so emoshh.🫂🫂
Thank you.😌
Babe..wey ur entry sef 😍
Welcome to adulthood. The land of no return.
Nobody go tell you what to do,na Ur brain go tell you say omo you no be pikin again ooo
How is adulthood treating you so far?
It's treating me the way you're seeing it🥹
That is good 😊
It hasn't been fair. People think I'm hardworking but deep down I don't want to be ,I just don't get choice 😂😂
Life is not fair
That feeling when people call you strong woman but deep down you're tired and really wanna be a soft lady like a softcopy
To be pampered like a baby🤣🤣
Exactly 😄
No return in quote 🤣🤣
Loud it ..lol
Yes ooo
Na forever something
God will continue to help
Truly the land of no return 😂😂
Yes ooo
You self can relate
You know one thing I keep wishing for is going back to my childhood and teenage age but.....no way
We've come this far already. We have to keep going. That's how life is.
Yeah.. I can imagine
Adulthood isn't easy oo my dear
Awwww
Awww
Anty empress good afternoon oo
Buy biscuit for us while coming home 😃
We are all facing the reality
Like is in stages
Growth is inevitable
Not backing out o, you don enter aunty be sat you don enter 😑
Aunty well come o, na one greeting wey mean.... "what did you bring for us" 😁😁
No one knew the time we left the childhood and just bursted adulthood stage o.
I still remember that time that I will be doing lovey lovey mummy and daddy play, I didn't know I was mimicking future in an opposite manner 😂
😂😂
I thought, I'm the only one on this table. How can I be the only one to care for everyone when no one cares for me? Adulthood is a scam indeed
Who told you no one cares for you? God does oo 😄
That's how we motivate ourselves na
No backing out oo. You go keep running the phase until the next one comes along without you asking for it. Hahaha 😂
A lot will take from us at this stage but don't fret, God is there.
Yeah, moments happy and that reality check of I am getting old sets in
