P.M.B 21090. DOES THIS RING A BELL?

Thursday, 16 July 2009 at 11:34
WAKE UP FOR MORNING DUTY!WAKE UP FOR MORNING DUTY!!WAKE UP FOR MORNING DUTY!!!,I so much hated does words waking me up in the morning for another school day. I always disliked Friday mornings because its the morning between THURSDAY LABOUR and SATURDAY JOGGING. we rarely had MORNING DEVOTION, I mean who had time anyway, the BELL FOR BREAKFAST was going 2 sound soon so no body wanted to waste time on any task. My MORNING DUTY was a fair one, PUSHING THE PIT was far better than working at the PIGGERY or SCRUBBING THE TOILET. Who wants to clean sum1 else's BOGS?. I usually rush through my duty, get to the reservoir to get water and dress up quickly before the breakfast bell. I love sitting on the FRONT ROW so that i can get 2 SERVE THE WHOLE TABLE so you are right if you call me a FOOD MONGER. Its always good getting HEAD OF FISH. On my lucky day, I always eat with the 1ST AND 2ND BATCHES. ....That TIME KEEPER self, he never rings the bell on time!

Was never a fan of the PRINCIPAL’S long boring speeches so I skipped ASSEMBLY regularly, you can find me hiding in the SICK BAY till we marched to the PTA block for the FIRST PERIOD. I was sitting in front of my CRUSH in class so my name was never missing in the NAMES OF NOISE MAKERS, besides the foolish CLASS CAPTAIN never liked me since i never returned his DRAWING BOARD. In CLASS, when young minds are concentrating on d AGAMA STYLED FURTHER MATHS TEACHER, all I was thinking was the BELL FOR BREAKTIME.I was 50 naira rich, but was torn between choices of where to spend my little fortune. Buying MALTINA AND SCOTCH EGG at BAKDOS was for the extravagant and i just dont belong there yet, MODECOM was too far so i couldn’t risk losing all i ate 2 walk back to CLASS was sick and tired of TANDY so QUDEX was not even an option ,and why should i buy AGBALUMO at FRUITY when i can simply pluck it for free at the TURAMPA?.KOKO VILLAGE, RISKY BURGER, BREAD AND PETIT and SHOW RICE were no go areas so those were never options .then I thought i just settle for my favourite MEAT PIE..oh sorry, I meant YAM PIE at the TACTUK.my tactics never failed me here, all i do is stand by the door, and wait for a friend to buy 1 SOLO COKE AND I YAMPIE and keep repeating “CUT SMALL FOR ME” over and over again till I get filled up without spending a kobo. It keeps me agile till the LAST PERIOD.

some times i use to think the TIME KEEPER was fasting because he never rings the BELL FOR FOOD on time! Wish i was the TIME KEEPER, I swear ill always live by the bell. As a regular SERVER in the DINNING HALL, I always had enough to eat even after the daily routine of SCALING OUTSIDE SCHOOL. If I m not in DOWNTOWN buying BEANS BURGER,im at BLESSED eating POUNDED YAM. All i had 2 do was settle BAMBAS at the GATE HOUSE or wait at the RECREATION CENTRE looking for honest DAY STUDENTS to send because they always end up running away with our money I remember I sent one to FAJOL PLAZA d other day to get me a rose and a card for VALENTINE, he never came back with my money or the gift, not until .I later learnt he had changed to MEIRAN COMPREHENSIVE ,damn!, cant wait 2 get that “D” BADGE on my UNIFORM.

Life in the BOYS HOSTEL was never fun, we all look like prisoners in our CHECK SHIRTS and CHINOS. All you hear is LAST JUNIOR everytime,5 SENIORS could be calling LAST JUNIOR at the same time and all we had 2 do was look at for the SENIOR with the smallest BUCKET to run to. Carrying that IRON PAIL from the RESERVOIR was never easy! If you think am joking, ask SEGUN ADEOSUN,its like a MOCK EXAM differentiating his neck from his head.thanks 2 the IRON BUCKET if you are so lucky to escape LAST JUNIOR, you wont escape being sent to look for ARODAN(journey without end) or being told to LIE DOWN FLAT. well except u stayed in the ANNEX of course, even the boys in the NEW HOSTEL never missed out. All we do is hide in the LAUNDRY or COMMON ROOM, we lie gently on our FOAMS ,SOAKING our GARI CAKE, drinking GARIUM, soaking RAW NOODLES with SARDINE or once in a blue moon, Kellogg’s. Kellogg’s was not for everybody, its only for the few, I remember the 1st time i tasted it,I never ate anything else d whole day, wanted 2 cherish that feeling in my stomach 4 ever. GARIUM was d most cherished possession however, especially during SAP.even if sum1 JACKS ur LOCKER,he will rather FAP ur GARIUM,rather than steal ur POCKET MONEY.

EVENING PREP at the USHAPED BLOCK was always fun. I get to read the LOVE LETTER i wrote over and over again. Wrote d letter in 2ND TERM of JS2,its SS1 3RD TERM now and i wonder if im ever going to give her the letter to read. If only she was a BOARDER, we would have met at the LOVE GARRDEN after PREP an maybe I may find the courage 2 give her. I always prefer the WALKWAY by the INTRO TECH LAB, there ,M K and his OPC boys will never catch us. Walking to the HOSTEL after PREP, what usually comes to mind is what 2 buy when you get to the hostel. Hear, you hear MELLOOOO..MASSUNNN ,there, you see boys trooping to STAFF QUATERS 2 buy AYORINDE’S DONUT and SOBO ,if u are d lucky 1,u get 2 watch PRIME TIME JAMS 4 free!. Back in d HOSTEL was always very uneasy, all we waited to hear was LIGHTS OUT but u pray and pray your HOUSE PREFECT does not shout does words you never want to hear, ALL BOYS TO THE COURTYARD! because if you do, you may end up MARRYING THE POLE.

Saturdays was always boring, all we do is WAKE UP FOR JOGGING and CLANING THE HOSTEL like there was an INSPECTION. Who even liked their YAM AND BEANS self, its only the EKO WITH VEGETABLE AND FRIED FISH. we enjoy. Every other thing about Saturdays was just play, play, and play. well except APO was in a good mood to allow us organise SOCIALS. That was always the highpoint of any good Saturday. Who wouldn’t want 2 show off that BUTTERFLY DANCE or the OPEN AND CLOSE STEP to that special girl. We end up in the hostel jisting about who danced with who and who mimed what song. We the HARD GUYS always have d best stories because LEVELS DEY!. At the end of the day, we all sleep off, with most of us sharing the same dream. Sundays BREAD AND EGG!

no be say NA MOI MOI,NO BE SAY NA OLELE,we always look forward to Sundays, I never had WHITE WHITE but i always EAT BREAD AND EGG. I never had a COMPLETE SET OF CUTLERY but seldom miss my JOLLOF RICE and FRIED FISH. I was like a forgotten boy back in school so i don’t get visits on VISITING DAY, but as a good BLENDER,I make sure i eat everyone’s GRUB on that day. Sunday ends up with visiting the BACK OF HOSTEL because i had more than enough to eat on d day.


MEMORIES OF MODEL COLLEGE MEIRAN WILL ALWAYS FOREVER LINGER IN MY HEART,JUST LIKE ANY OTHER MODELITE,I MADE MY BEST FRIENDS AND SOME UNFORGETABLE EXPERIENCES.LIKE MY PHYSICS TEACHER USE TO SAY,“THAT IS JUST THE GOSPEL TRUTH”.

UP SCHOOL !!! UP MODEL!!!

Please note that this story is satirical, my idea was to put together popular model college Meiran slangs and terms into a short story to give the reader a good understanding of the piece.
