1.so its the cold season....or i think it is/should be. at least it's freezing today. to bad all i can do is wear socks and get into bed. it's too cold to even stay on the bed. aside from that it has been hot all week and the past weeks....more so yesterday. see i woke up and it was colder than it had been for the past couple of days.so i thought i could finally wear some of the warm clothes i had spent my time and money buying but can't wear them because our kenyan winter is turning out to be hotter than our summer. so i pull on a black tee, Burberry shirt,cosy brown wool sweater, Burberry scarf,cool trousers and some loafers.
|
of course i looked better than this....:-P |
i'm looking good and smelling even better....and the weather is favorable (at least in school it was). so i make my way in to town. just as i get to westy i know i'm in for a long day. i was faced by a two faced weather.just as i crossed sarit it went from glum and cold to JUA KALI...in an instant.
by the time i get to tao, sweating and wrapped the scarf around my hand and not around my neck. after some laps in town....i'm down to just the black t-shirt.scarf, shirt and sweaters held in my hand. i swear i was looking good(before i did went stripping in the CBD)...make that extra(i always look good) but now i just looked dumb.
i wanted to blame it on the weather forecasters. problem is, they are always wrong. so i blame it on global warming.hahaha. i'm going green...and i so not drive so rarely contribute to the pollution. but are there electric motorbikes?:-P at least that will help me dress a jacket and scarf....even when its hot.
|
electric bike...hmmmm |
|
|
weird looking electric bike |
|
i can dress a jacket even when it is hot |
|
|
or will this old school look b better |
2. i have had a cold/flu all week. i don't know where from. i was watching Hit list on tuesday and there came the sneezing...and more of it in a few minutes. then the nose blowing....crazy.
|
haaacheew! |
lucky for me i rarely get a fever when i have a flu.but unlucky for me, i was taught that no virus has a cure (blame it on the science teacher in primo...teacher Albert.i am so sure it was him.). so i do not belive in medicine for flu. i just sit it out and trust my immunity to deal with it(1st sign i do not have HIV/AIDS). i also blame the 'cold season' for the flu. i haven't been kissing of late and rarely leave the room.by the way, in the time as i was nursing my illness, i was given many tips on how to combat my flu, more so now that i did not use medicine.the one that stood out apart from the making a concoction of eggs(allergic), oranges and i do not know what....was that i should kiss any girl somewhere. those crazy moments when you wish it was Christmas and u have mistletoe swinging above your head...
|
mistletoe |
i did not all week...but the flu is gone. that brings me to cold season blues number 3.
|
nursing my flu |
3. they call this season the mating season.
|
i didn't say kill your mates when you mate |
4-6 months from now, you will realize many women are huge...not as in fat(they tend to get so any way) but pregnant. i am not at all getting cosy in this weather. it beats me( i don't fuck and tell....i'm not fucking and i'm telling...:-P) when you in campus, more so UoN...the sounds that you hear most nights are either room parties(i don't know what that chick who was dumped on waiyaki was doing in a 'room' party in westlands yet i'm sure they were a couple on campus) or squeaking beds. it's a new sem and all this is non existent. i think guys left their dicks home and the ladies got dildos...i blame it on people listening to ciku muiruri too much. that's why i do not listen to radio nor watch telly.hahaha
|
ciku...you killing us guys |
but why ain't i getting some?i blame it on the FWB line of mine not working.ladies are growing smart(ciku!!!). i can also blame it on the classes that are in session in school currently.we are just two classes.those above us look at us like kids, and those girls from out class...well, THOSE!:P
|
not working anymore... |
|
|
let us mate this season...hahaha |
4.increased prices. so those of you who live at home and parasite(accepted though) on you parents and guardians wouldn't know jack about inflation and the fuss on increased cost of living. i was on holiday so fell in that bracket. then i got back to school and reality hit me...on the face together with the cold ghasts of cold. in school there are 3 places to eat.
one is so expensive that only lecturers feast there. the other two are affordable. we used to eat in the school cafeteria(mess) because it was way cheaper(on of the few advantages of being in a public university) but now they only serve rice. no ugali and no chapatis. i do not know what they have against flour. i can't feed on rice for a whole week...let alone two meals in a day. so i try 'outsourcing' some ugali, chapati or bread from outside....tricky. everything has gone up by 5 shillings. fries, smokies, sausages, milk, yoghourt...
again, for those of you who live at home your faces are wry asking 'now what's the fuss about?' i won't even explain. i event wanted to buy an anti-janitor for my door. that has gone up also since last sem...by 100 shillings. i blame all this on the increased fuel prices...
and uhuru kenyatta.(someone/something has to take the fall today)
:-(
on the other hand, i can now eat less...i have got 'comments' on my weight increase.hmmmm....
5. is it too cold to raev? i think so.... i was out on friday...ALONE!!
first of all, if you are in nai...do not raev on friday. uptown thursday and saturday madness means friday has empty clubs. rhez was closed by 5(they had drawn the curtains...i can swear) changez was empty at 1AM and were unpitching their tents by 4.30...hmmmm. i like going out alone. it cuts down on the drama and you can let go and whatever you want.
|
and i did this like i never have |
i had tried calling up some people though so that we go out. you can guess what they said...'it's too cold'. there was however one group of people who did not seem to realize how cold it was....the Sudanese.
these guys were beside themselves(kudos to southern Sudan for attaining independence). that and their being dark enough(or is it too dark) to conserve enough heat. or may be its the light colored clothes they adore so much. these clothes repel all cold...hahaha
you could feel the difference(i was in the failed Eskimo attire i tried to pull during the day).:-)
6. ramadhan is around the corner....and all this cold.now how will that pan out?
