Hey comrades, wake up and smell the coffee for Easter is over. It’s time to get back to reality and let the rest that you did be a dream unless it was of value to your life. 

Reality from the “Hurray it’s Easter!” shouts after that Thursday class to a four-day holiday. Where you thought you had escaped that tedious Friday lecture, that tough continuous assessment test, submitting that assignment you had not even endeavored, the quarrels with the gate security because you forgot your school identification card and most importantly saving that fare.

It’s time to take that selfie once more but this time while at the school gate and put it on Instagram, Whatsapp status, Facebook etc. (as you are used to) with captions such as “back to school manenos, going for a lecture,” unlike the previous “lunch at Kempinski, the bablus show by the Kansoul was liiit!!, it’s only God who can judge me, road trip to Maasai Mara” that surprised most of those who never got a chance to have the ‘fake’ life you were living for those few days to wonder if they had been cursed. Whether you relished or falsified the few days holiday nobody really cares as for now it’s back to business, back to that assignment that you assumed, back to that group work that you fled with a “holiday excuse,” back to those boring lectures and worse of all back to the people that loaned you the money you used for the holiday.

Welcome back, for the timetable hasn’t changed, the pavilion and the school canteen is still selling the same type of food neither have the prices changed (apart from those who can’t survive without Ugali) and for those who are used to miss classes, we still don’t care.
