End Of Campus Party - Buruu

It was a Monday. But not any other Monday. You know it's a special Monday because it's the last Monday before you start your exams. It's a Monday to be serious & start looking for class notes you didn't have. It's time to collect group works of other groups and study them. It's the last Monday before the last exams of my 8-4-4 education.

The seriousness expected on such Mondays is beyond the normal serious Monday at a court house. It's a Monday to step up your studying. It's a Monday to step up your copy-paste material & version. If it was version 1.013. It's time to shift to version 1.014. It's a generally serious Monday. But here we were, an End of Campus House Party and bonding.

This wasn't that normal house party. It wasn't that bring a mzinga for every 2 people you come with. It wasn't that house party. It was a family house party. It was about the family you've made throughout your 4 years or 3 years of your campus life. It was a neighborhood party. You cherish such parties because of that one neighbor.

That one neighbor that you once borrowed salt from. That one neighbor that you once borrowed sugar. That one neighbor that you once borrowed tea leaves. That one neighbor that you once borrowed a packet of condoms. That one neighbor that you once lit a spliff with. That one neighbor that you once had a boner for. That one neighbor that you once thought would look so much better with the lights off. That one neighbor.

We partied. It was lovely. We ate. We drunk. We laughed. It was a memorable party.

This post is dedicated to Biko (you are a badass at slaughtering chicken), Willy & his girl (mkiwa hakuna kupanic mambo na food), Martha (thanks for the kuku), Chege (always high but we never know what you're using), Eugene (thanks for the accommodation), Koi (nunua mattress refu kukushinda), Winnie (congratulations on obeying God's command; go to the world and multiply) ... and all other people I haven't mentioned. Thanks so much. I cherish such memories.
