Thursday: Me and my young self

March 12, 2009 · 13 Comments

Had the most boring class ever today….okie usually Thursdays are slower than ever…but today there was something extra-slow about the last lecture….half the class left after the first hour…and the rest fell asleep/ played with their phones/twiddled their hair/ propped eyes open with their fingers (Last 2 so apply to me)

I feel like I’ve been digging in a shamba the whole day! (Thats what Mama Val says when I say I’m tired…she will have to ask if I’ve been digging in a shamba the whole day…if I haven’t, I shouldn’t be complaining)

But I digress, I just dropped by to give salaams/ shout-outs…and ooh yeah..talk about jana. So my pal dropped by after class…ati we take a walk to the student bar and chill…so I say okie…and we head off…as we were walking, we were both lamenting over how old we feel we’re becoming. Then I mentioned how I no longer get Id-ed  by bar staff/ supermarket staff/corner shop staff when ordering alcohol….

Yes apparently I look under age to some people and they sometimes stop me from purchasing my bottle of yumminess….and guess what happened when I got to the student bar….I got ID-ed! I was laughing so hard…..thank goodness I’d carried a huge bag with my cards and everything….He actually said that I looked like a Fresher..and when I gave him the eyebrow showing my disbelief, I was told to consider it a compliment…..I do hope I’ll be one of those women who age beautifully….kinda like Iman….seen the new cover of the Essence magazine? I’m so going to get it….and dream about looking that good when I’m 53..

Will do proper reads and comments on your blogs soonest…Now, me and my young self need some sleep!
