Those Were The Good Old Days by SeanT21(f): 5:08pm On Apr 07, 2008 |
since i move to the U.S i love it here but Liberia is still my home. There are things i miss about Liberia so much. I remember me and my brothers and our neighborhood friends use to go to the well or the creek in our neighborhood and fill our playtoy guns with water and have a waterwar. I remember us running all over the neighborhood and screaming. Mostly the guys will beat the girls because they could run just a little bit faster. I also miss swimming in the river. When it rains the river at the well gets full and we will all just swim in it. It was so fun and relaxing. I also miss waking up early in the morning to get the mango from under the tree before my family wake up. Alphonso always woke up just a little bit early before me and i use to be piss because he took the good ones and went and sold it at school or the town nearby. He use to give me only a few. I mostly miss hangin with my grandmother and brading her hair(eventhough i use to suck at brading). I remember when she use to cook pepper soup her favorite. she use to have all kinds on meat in it. I remmember her telling me stories of the old. Damn i miss my grandma SO much. R.I.P ELIZABETH COX- see u in the beautiful heaven. make sure you meat me at heavens gate when its my time. WHAT DO YOU MISS ABOUT YOUR COUNTRY? WHAT DO YOU MISS WHEN GROWING UP? |

I miss waiting for NTA to start @ 4pm daily. Remember those green,yellow,brown, and red stripes? And the National Anthem before they actually start. I think Voltron used to be on then. I miss Tales by moonlight I miss table soccer I miss making bird cages and catapults to shoot down birds I miss that thing in class we used to make from paper that you'd write all sorts of things on and ask someone to choose from. I miss making paper boats and aeroooplaness. I miss palm wine I miss monkey post soccer I miss going to the secondary school library just to get some air conditioning "OYE" In short, i miss my childhood |
