My name is Eze Faith and I am so excited to be part of the hive community. I will be working you all through my life experiences so you can get to know me better 😊. I'm from the eastern part of Nigeria, Enugu state precisely( we're known as the Igbo's). I come from a family of seven and I'm 20 years old. I have three sisters and a brother. I'm the second child and I'm closest to my elder sister😊(she's the best) and sometimes people even think that we're twins because we do everything together. We laugh, play, read,walk together and even share the same clothes. ![Screenshot_20240501-152610.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmZkiyrxUorMB6axf6T4YNuB7scdG2M7BQqRYLYA784UtL/Screenshot_20240501-152610.jpg) ![Screenshot_20240501-152712.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmTZJ4Tj71dmg8hEBGzuSeFQVL2cAJenhs8wrNtAf2oqaj/Screenshot_20240501-152712.jpg)

My parents were so protective of us while growing up. Myself and my siblings we were mostly found inside the house as we were never allowed to go outside. Since I was always at home with my mom, I learnt how to cook at a very young age and I became very good at it, this was one advantage of always staying indoors with my mum but a disadvantage was that at my elementary stage, I had anthropophobia, which is known as fear of people, and because of this I was bullied a lot in school and also had learning disorder. I received lots of help and encouragements from my parents, teachers and my pastors, and because of this help, I began to open up little by little and I started associating better with people around me. My junior high school was much more fun for me. I made a lot of friends and engaged in a lot of activities like; doing some experiments with my classmates in the science lab,joining the athletic team and even taking kung-fu classes 😂. ![Screenshot_20240527-153557.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmYfeqjEL9rdZKAHghs5uPpc3tCM3ttZvzQsMAKRiej7tp/Screenshot_20240527-153557.jpg) ![qjrE4yyfw5pJD9LKQ1BG3NbSyKTowh8wnMyt99dddua4U41rZmpEeZf2o8BwWGgNBRCrCf9Rmzna4biVLCpU9f9uPbkBv73RzRynuaVKDqeD3ohUhbFD1znr.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmQZAUZQs2T6MzFsZsVYS6wJjvk8jXwHrFSv8eKVHE1tfj/qjrE4yyfw5pJD9LKQ1BG3NbSyKTowh8wnMyt99dddua4U41rZmpEeZf2o8BwWGgNBRCrCf9Rmzna4biVLCpU9f9uPbkBv73RzRynuaVKDqeD3ohUhbFD1znr.png)

I've always dreamed of becoming a lawyer so in my senior high school I joined the art/social science class. When it was time for college, I gained admission into the university of Nigeria Nsukka in the year 2021. Due to some circumstances, I could not go further with my dreams of studying law so I decided to pursue a degree in economics. ![IMG-20211002-WA0049.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmR3snE8pi65kcSu4FyyCU2Xe565iRbbvXYQuQEJMMD5kX/IMG-20211002-WA0049.jpg) ![IMG_20211002_132521_528.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmPp67qv77H7QN9aKz8qYGVT3mSmnF9oqn2HR7zhwf6kWi/IMG_20211002_132521_528.jpg)

I didn't think I had what it takes to study economics cause I performed poorly in mathematics and anything that has to do with calculations, but my parents were my biggest motivation. They told me that I can do anything if I'm dedicated and intentional about it and I held on to this words and currently I'm in my final year ☺️. During the course of studying this degree I joined an organization which is call Economics Press Association Of Nigeria (ECOPRESS) and I was given an award of punctuality. ![Screenshot_20240429-135308.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmd7fkA2r3QVuuXSGVp3CxnWH9V875Phxc3z35egLFUVY2/Screenshot_20240429-135308.jpg) ![Screenshot_20240429-135334.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmeYaSS9qJukANNxTdbtzjEtdas6DzMiB4fqqNuLHecXbs/Screenshot_20240429-135334.jpg)

In my free time, I enjoy dancing a whole lot, so I sing and dance to ease off the stress. I visit the library sometimes to study. I also love to read novels especially romantic novels and also fantasies, they take me out of the world of reality for a moment. One of my best novels so far is called Married To The Devil's Son, the context,the plot,the characters and above all the romance in this novel was just exceptionally good. ![Screenshot_20240429-132407~2.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmdWupiPzt3pnYkm8v3xM4mk3iy9ANo6BDafHgyYrLZXp2/Screenshot_20240429-132407~2.jpg) ![Screenshot_20240429-130832.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmZ12zyGSwox2rzxy5HqdY2LudW5Eu4oJdjgSdg4ar2bR2/Screenshot_20240429-130832.jpg) I enjoy listening to music especially afro beats but my favourite artist is Alan Walker. His song are so inspiring and motivating. He wears a mask while he sings and the idea of him wearing a mask is so that we can picture our faces behind the masks singing the songs he sings ☺️. I can sing and I love singing but I'm a shy singer . When I want to feel good about myself I take lots of selfies. It's kind of like my hobby and I do it all the time. ![Snapchat-562427204.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmP641sA1RaY2FpW7arzy65raYSSD5H3ztMQjFxWi9Vvmf/Snapchat-562427204.jpg) ![Snapchat-1594467219.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmdySKhKL7hybgb7e1gqXQo3rG73oCT1nHnZ35BEh5mRVp/Snapchat-1594467219.jpg) ![Snapchat-2017175958.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmfFkk7EPPFFR6orkzuPDc47RRT4wYMZsTHWTbUg6DJ8FM/Snapchat-2017175958.jpg) ![qjrE4yyfw5pJD9LKQ1BG3NbSyKTowh8wnMyt99dddua4U41rZmpEeZf2o8BwWGgNBRCrCf9Rmzna4biVLCpU9f9uPbkBv73RzRynuaVKDqeD3ohUhbFD1znr.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmQZAUZQs2T6MzFsZsVYS6wJjvk8jXwHrFSv8eKVHE1tfj/qjrE4yyfw5pJD9LKQ1BG3NbSyKTowh8wnMyt99dddua4U41rZmpEeZf2o8BwWGgNBRCrCf9Rmzna4biVLCpU9f9uPbkBv73RzRynuaVKDqeD3ohUhbFD1znr.png)

My worst moments were the days I was admitted to the hospital. It was so bad that sometimes the doctors couldn't figure out what exactly caused the sickness. I was always placed on series of drips and injections . The year 2019 was my worst year ever because the sickness grew worse and I could not eat real food for weeks. The doctor had to conduct series of test and the result came out positive to a pregnancy test. I was shattered. I was still in high school then and I could see the disappointment in my parents eyes, they were at the verge of disowning me because in an African home, a child who gets pregnant out of wedlock is a disgrace to the entire family. So while trying to figure out the whole thing, my dad who still had little faith in me asked that a second test be conducted. The doctors conducted another test and it took hours for the result to come out but when it finally came out it turned out to be negative. They found out that their test machine had some issues and it was the reason they gave a wrong result initially. I was very relieved and I had to be transferred to another hospital that night. It was indeed a terrible experience. I love foods and like I mentioned earlier, I like to cook. My favorite food is egg sauce and yam and I can live on it for a month. I will be sharing some of my egg sauce recipes here in this platform and I assure you that you would love it. ![Screenshot_20240429-125622.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmavVWuE2fkh3kMZgzCcPJZ3FUp4QUtrsWHJnCLfSNcub9/Screenshot_20240429-125622.jpg)
