Please allow me to be the Drama Queen that you all know and love for the 10 mins that you read this....thanks in advance!
Today I will attend another African Dance class…..I was exactly like a rabbit caught in the head lights.
In fact I think I might have even been hit my that car because I was an absolute MESS on the dance floor. I am no dancer people and despite me being black and all that stuff it made no odds. The routine was HARD! I have a memory issues as many of my friends family and ex-co workers can testify and so remembering a whole routine is a nightmare! A few weeks ago I met a girl from Norway who is a choreographer and we were watching some of the ladies practicing the routine before the class started. I got a little scared but she was like ‘nah Kamilah, don’t sweat it “we’ll” pick this up, no worries’. Zeze is her name and she is a choreographer so of course she’s going to say some junk like that! When she said “we’ll” pick it up, no worries’ I think she was concussed because when everyone was dancing on time Miss Bryan was trying to find her way to the back of the class while Miss Zeze was steppingto every beat! As I found the back of the class I discovered it was no safe haven and even the people at the back had the routine down…..first I thought sitting out was a little attention seeking as I was the only one out of about 40 people to sit out but I then realised it was ok…..its not attention seeking its more a case of you don’t want to shame yourself up as you will have to see these people again!
Im absolutely friggin starving….Its almost to the point of I cant be bothered to type. The time is 8.55PM and no food has arrived on the table. Im not allowed to prepare anything myself and to be honest I wouldn’t know where to start in the kitchen. I smelt and saw some chicken being BBQ when I arrived but now I don’t see the chicken and Im just really confused because Im hungry. I went out the house at about 6pm for a drink and some fresh air with some friends as the house is soooooo hot. I arrived back at around 8pm which is not late and I thought there might be something ready but NADA! Im not sure if I should ask as maybe they think Ive already eaten but maybe Im going to ask now because I think Im going a little bit crazy….so I went to ask and there is no one to ask…..Im going to cry! I had breakfast at 7am (Weatabix) then I had some pao (bread) when I got to work at about 9.30am…then lunch was at 12pm and that was rice and xima (xima – pronounced che-mah, its like a green sauce that’s made from vegetables. Its nice). I didn’t have any small change to buy a snack on the way home because I only had 500mtcls which is the equivalent to £9.50 and NOWHERE has change of such a large note. So I couldn’t buy anything from the street and so here I am STARVING like Marvin. Maybe I should just go to sleep and sleep through the hunger and hopefully wake up tomorrow morning (if Ive not passed out from lack of food) even more hungry than when I went to sleep……ooop…..there is light at the end of this looooooooooong tunnel. Melita, the house helper, just dragged me into the kitchen…..she said sorry for the delay but she didn’t have any serving bowls available to put my food into. WHAT! Just put it on a plate love….no need for all that fancy shizzal. So my people… food is on its way and all things in the world are good and great once more. Thanks for allowing me to talk about my lack of food….time check of eating was 9.24 PM….yes PM and I have now finished at 9.50pm. If I continue to eat this late it doesn’t matter how many Africana Dancer classes I go to Im going to blow up like a balloon….OMG! Just one last thing about the dinner tonight….there was chicken and then as like a side dish there was chicken feet. I never know what I should do with the chicken feet as I just cant eat them as its too real and very claw like…..but also what meat is there on a scrawny little chicken foot. Its no Gordan Ramsey restaurant so there is nothing on the plate justt for decoration so I dunno…..maybe one day this year I’ll give it a go. Im not there yet......I think you have to suck the flesh out.....too much information! Sorry x
