MALIVANI

"Nani anataka kwenda boarding school?"
My mother asked as we just sat there starring at her wondering what she meant by boarding school.
Oh! And so it happened I was the only one who didn't understand as my brother replied saying he would never to to boarding and if it reached a time for him to be in high school then my parents should be living in the neighbouring.
 
 
So now my parents turned to me with a warm smile, explained what it meant by boarding school. The fact that I'd leave behind my new friends, ( in case i forgot to mention, we were just a few months old in this town #80403 so i managed to pick out a few friends in the school i was at ), made me be hesitant.
"You will have new uniforms, new shoes, anything that you'll want you'll have it new" that's my father saying.
My brother just shook his head as if to pity me.
 
 
Mmmh...new shoes! I thought to myself. I've always wanted to have these bata toughees shoes that were trending in that time. This was my chance.
"Nataka bata toughees" I said happily.
And so that was it. I was in. Not knowing what i had gotten myself into.
 
 
School was just about to reopen for my 3rd term in standard 5.
 
 
Within a blink of an eye, we were there UKAMBANI! Makueni to be precise. In this school, Malivani A.I.C Boarding Primary School.
 
in my time, there was no school bus

 
The kids here seem happy, just like my former school. Well, I said former because I did not want to go back there, I wanted bata toughees, Hello!
It is my interview day. A math test is brought to me where i sat on a desk under a tree shade. It was easy. Math is my main. (Don't ask what happened) English was next and after, I see some lady bring me food.
 
Ha ha ha! Excuse me, but is this GITHERI!!! Githeri? Why? I had my parents around why would I stress myself out with it. I'd eat fries. And my final test was Kiswahili.
In an hour's time, we had the results and the headmaster, (wait, this you should know, is soooo huge I felt like an ant) told my parents that he'd be glad to have me enrolled in his school.

DRY WINE

By
When someone tells you they are experiencing dry spell, it simply means they have just realized they haven't had sex in a while and want to change that probably because they think you are the best option they could have.  So run, and run fast. Well, unless you want to hit or be hit by it. Haha!  Well well well, public opinion is extremely a mutable thing. we can go out to feel pretty We all know that you are most likely to meet people through friends and friends of friends and that you also have to get yourself out there. we could choose to go with our boyfriends But bars and clubs seems to offer a better chance of getting noticed, flirting and touching to build sexual attraction more so short - term sexual goals. By the way, Would you get yourself into a relationship with someone you met in the club? Actually, I'd say you are too judgmental if you consider all the girls in the club to be sluts. ...

SHOULD WE WAIT?

" Usifanye tabia mbaya" As a kid every time I asked permission from my folks to go out and play, that's what they would tell me. Sex in my time was referred to as tabia mbaya, you would know if you are among the late 80's and early 90's kids. (early 90's ends at 1993,tusibishane) " Genital sex is an expression of intimacy, not the means to intimacy. True intimacy springs from verbal and emotional communion. True intimacy is built on a commitment to honesty, love and freedom. True intimacy is not primarily a sexual encounter. Intimacy, in fact, has almost nothing to do with our sex organs. A prostitute may expose her body, but her relationships are hardly intimate." Alice Fryling. Remember THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL? It was the alarm for bed time. SMH it saddens that cartoons/animations nowadays have sexual scenes and the most targeted market is our kids. At age 7, during my elder sisters' birthday party (she was 19 at...

EASTER FORBIDS SEX

By
MOLA ATUPE IMANI ZIUNGANE NYOYO ZETU There's so much about Easter I actually dunno what exactly to put across today. With this Easter I think it'll be the longest weekend ever in 2018. Kwanza with us being Kenyans kuna watu 'watakufa' on Thursday evening and 'wafufuke' on Tuesday, almost literally. The likes of kina Joe Muchiri - okay silly guts, just don't crucify me. 😂 ENGAGE IN PHOTOSHOOT With Easter and the 40 days lent period I think it's more of the same as Ramadhan period for the Muslims. We all know the Islamic calendar is based on the cycle of the moon. Now, why do Muslims celebrate Ramadhan? First of all, it is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar.  And it is believed to be the month the first revelation of the Quran to the prophet Muhammad to have taken place so... During the Ramadhan period, Muslims abstain from eating, drinking, smoking, sex and are only allowed to eat very early in the morning before sunrise and in...
