It's cool to make a post on the first day of the year, don't you think? I do. Especially for people like el that does it like quarterly! Well, just got home 4 days ago to spend the new year here in lagos. Lagos can be fun. I've spent a total of about 14 hrs in traffic, in just 3 days! Where else can this happen?? Only in the center of excellence!!
Port harcourt has been a blast (that's were i've been in the past 8 months), with females trying to 'land' you at every turn. Its really a fun place to serve at. I guess the only downside to it is the teaching thing. But even that in itself has not been so bad. What with students in SSS3 (i believe that's the equivalent for high school) that can't spell their names correctly, or can't communicate in English or pidgeon english. I've had some good laughs.
For example, in one of the exams we had, i came across a the script of a certain student in SSS2. This subject paper was physics. Now, i had to hold on to the script cos it was like something i had never seen. I now type verbatim. Viewer discretion is seriously advised.

I need to stop here cos its hard work typing stuff that's not english, you know what i mean??
Now to decipher this puzzle. Did i hear someone say "you're kidding, right"? How does this relate to physics? The first line is supposed to be the question ''list 4 properties of metals''. He couldn't even copy out correctly, let alone answering the question. He even had a drawing of something that looked liked an umbrella! I have to know if he was some kind of genius answering the questions in his local dialect! And since this was a promotion exam, i knew he couldn't have been messing around. He must have burnt the 'midnite candle' reading for this exam! Really had a good laugh.
So Rivers state is an interesting place to stay at. I spent my christmas days in calabar, that's in Cross Rivers. Their carnival is rerally of the hinges! By this, i mean extremely fun. Incase ya'll didn't know, calabar hosts a very colorful carnival, annually. I hope they keep it up 'cos it puts Nigeria on the world tourism map every year. I have pictures, but i appear in most of them and that would nullify the anonymous, effect won't it?? Sorry!!
So, i'm not cutting ya'll off on wots being happening to your boy el. Just trying to make my first post this year. Hola back. Holllaaaaaaa.
