Quick Updates

Quick updates but before I begin, men have got to stop bringing out their peepee and peeing anywhere then touching people all over. What a disgusting habit and I know the men reading this are guilty. Stop!

The governor has decided to change the school set up to something different from the whole Junior Secondary School (JSS) & Senior Secondary School (SSS) stuff. He wants to adopt the elementary, middle and the high school set up like in the Americas. So, I'm sure you understand why he gave the same uniforms statewide. When he starts moving and merging students from different schools, they will all blend together. He also is trying to rebuild schools so he is reshuffling students and breaking down and rebuilding.

However, all the information above, I gathered from others, I have no idea if those are the main reasons. I'm almost not bothered enough to research. What they did for example, my school, Osogbo Granmar School-Junior Secondary School 1 has been moved to a new site, where we are supposed to be joined by 3 or 4 other Junior Secondary Schools. The problem now is, the students have to walk with their desks on their heads or however to the new site. Is this ridiculous or what? The distances aren't close at all in most cases. When they reach the new location, the environment is not conducive so many schools that moved last week have moved back to their original schools. Perhaps, the middle of the school year is the wrong time to make such drastic changes. Seriously! (Pictures of my old and new school are coming soon).

The amazing thing is, of all the schools he's moving in Osun state, only one school protested. Fakunle Senior School students. They went to the Governor's office to protest, slept in their school so that they wouldn't demolish overnight. I'm not sure which part of the decision they are against but seriously, no one can explain to another person what exactly the plans are and why they are in motion.

I now imagined if every Nigerian citizen was like these students, it would be a better country. People don't fight in Nigeria, we just find a way to live around inconveniences. We are all to concerned about taking care of us and ours. You know, like adjust with the shitty situations. I mean, with this change, parents have to give more money for transportation in most cases and Corpers who have rented apartments close to their PPA would have to spend more on transportation. It's just ridiculous. I'm lucky because my new location is the same price and not too far from the current location but not everyone is as fortunate as I am.

Let me tell you briefly about the demonstration of craze at my CDS group (EFCC). In case you didn't know, I am a batch C Corper. Batch A Corpers are passing out on February 14th and the president, vice president, treasurer and general secretary of every CDS group had to hand down the positions to the newly elected candidates last Thursday. You need to see havoc, disagreement and controversy during the election. I was flabbergasted at the ludicrousness. It reminded me of one of the elections or debates or something in a Nigerian House of Assembly (that place might not even exist but please use ur intelligence to figure out where I'm talking about), where grown men were throwing tantrums and chairs at each other. Smh! That's how it all begins. I recorded but I wldnt't be able to upload.

Two last things, the abaya Corper and the student. I have asked around from people who have been there longer and they assured me it was a harmless relationship. I talked to the girl also and she didn't say anything suspicious and better still, the dude is passing out with Batch A so one less issue to worry about.

And oh! I found my crush!! BUT! He's not what I remembered. I think over the holidays I painted a different picture of him in my head.
