A TRUE LIFE STORY
I was buying food at our school cafeteria when one of my
plantain pieces fell on their counter, considering my pocket condition and how hungry I was I had no other choice than to pick it up. A girl standing right beside
me who had been noticing gently tapped me and the following dialogue ensued
between us;
ME; really? WOW (pauses for a moment)……………………what department
are you?
GIRL; (smiles) microbiology
ME; no wonder, I’m in mass communication and your principle
doesn’t apply to my field. I’ll just have to poo it out later.
GIRL; (laughs) it
doesn’t matter, it’s very wrong
ME; eeya maybe next time, but definitely not today cos this
plantain is going down my throat.
GIRL; (shakes her head) okay, suite your stomach.
ME went
ahead to eat the plantain and I enjoyed every strand of fiber, drop of oil, and
heat of fire that went into making the DODO.
