A Twitter user with the name ‘Gambit’ posted a shot of a list of items a son of his working colleague had written.
The petition titled ‘Things to bring to my Our Day’ and dated July 29, 2021 captures Oswald detailing to his mother the items he would expect at his Our Day which is today, July 30, 2021.
Oswald, after penciling down all the items which include packs of biscuits, bottles of drinks, and his Ipad, reminded his mother thus: “It my day on Friday so please don’t disappoint me. Otherwise, you will ruin my day that if I don’t celebrate well, I will have to wait for a long time again.”

The young lad then capped it off with what can best be described as emotional blackmail, jogging his mother’s attention to the fact that “I didn’t disappoint you in the exams so please don’t disappoint me.”
The post quickly blew up with raved reviews of the child’s writing skills as well as a shock by the number of items captured on the list.
