Just a couple more, for your pleasure:
Abby: This is a paraphrased passage from a teachers manual. What!?...Two dudes were traveling down a muddy road. Coming around a bend they met a lovely girl in an ultra mini skirt and a half shirt, unable to cross the intersection. One lifted her into his arms and carried her over the mud. When they reached the mosque that night, one said, we don't go near females. Especially young and lovely ones. Its dangerous. Why did you do that? The other says, I left the girl there. Am I still carrying her?
Julie: All students are taking a break in the day for a faculty meeting, but we are really just roasting corn while students run wild.
Julie: I even had to sign a paper agreeing that this is a faculty meeting! I have already had 2 cobs of corn!
Lily: O my god. I think the mosque moved the speaker to my roof. When it started I jumped about 3 feet in the air. Its so loud
Jessica: I just put in School of Rock... I hate being the one who picks the movie at the stodge [PC transit house] because people just walk in and out for two hours judging your choice
Responses to a text I sent out telling everyone that my neighbor told me that there are ghost devils that live in a tree in my school that come out and attack the fair skinned girls once a year...and that I was screwed because I am literally the fairest of them all, being the only white person in a school of 1400. So since my life was about to turn into a made for TV horror movie, the only question left is what should the title be?? These were some of the responses:
Dylan: Sweaty Sheets
Samantha: `Toubab and the Kabafita Curse` a story of a strong minded young woman and her peppy friends who came to Brikama to teach science and math, but who soon realized Kabafita was about to teach them a lesson of their own that they would soon not forget...and I think it will have an underlying moral story about how you should always sponsor young Gambian doctors to go to America. This is obv the only way to break the curse that the ghost puts on you.
Marnie: Native Haunting?
Abby: Scary Movie TWO-bob!!
Lily: Toubab Row? a not so clever play on sorority row
and my favorite...Jessica: The Tourtured Toubab
Abby: Have you ever heard a Gambian fart?
Abby:I was just sitting here in the dark thinking about how Ive never heard a Gambian fart! What are you doing?
Dylan: The med unit will issue you a product similar to GoldBond if you ask on the refill request form...and its TINGLEICIOUS!!!
Abby: Someone stole my friends bike. In response, he said `I will go to the maribou and he will not urinate for 3 days. Then he will die.` The Gambian justice system at its best.
Dylan: What would you do right now for a BigMac, a large fries, Heinz ketchup, and an ice filled soda so huge and with such a wide straw that you can take great frozen tongue biting gulps between handfuls of crisp-sweet-salty-savory fries...and now I'm really hungry.
Me: What would I do? I would probably walk all the way to your village and STRANGLE you for making me think of such things!
Julie: Went on my daily 2 hour bike ride this evening only to get soaked half way through- imagine the show I put on crossing into town in a sheer tee and shorts stuck to the tops of my ghostly thighs-particularly as school lets out.
**sorry for weird punctuation, or lack of punctuation. I am on a french computer where everything is moved around...it took me ten minutes to find the @ sign, after that i just gave up...if i couldn't find it, its just not going to be there.
