Nostalgia or Regret...back to Festac.

If you read my 1st couple of posts on this blog, you will see a trend of stories focused on a 3rd party. Yes, I was dating then, a 'serious' relationship they say. it ended 1 year ago this month...she lives/lived in Festac and I leaved in Ojodu.

My trips to Festac from Ikeja were almost daily, even when I was still living in Ibdan, I used to travel down every weekend #fool4luv. So 'm on my way for a colleague's wedding in Festac, it dawned on me that I knew Festac like I was born there.

I remember 1 of those trips from Ibadan, I was at her's till very late and decided to sleep in Festac (was a big customer to the hotels in the area). I didn't plan it so made no reservation. It was a Friday night and my Ibo friends don't dull...all hotels were fully booked, I ended sleeping in my car inside my favourite hotel's car park....wow!!!

Sometimes I wonder if it was all a waste, like I should have regrets. Me, no, never...it's all part of my maturing process. I did invest my all in that relationship...not sure I did as I still have 'me'. Its all nostalgia...a strange one though. Net, it's all good now, 'm out of the hood now.
