Yeah u guessed, I'm pissed. Especially when that person was originally from Africa until about six years ago. There's this guy in my IT class (Ghanaian). he finds it hard to believe I've been here less than two years. Says, "But you dont have the Ghanaian accent"... damn right I dont... neither do I have ur stupid cockney accent. Nor do I listen to your rubbish Garage music.
Why is everyone who comes from Africa expected to have no sense of humor whatsoever, be the the-world-is-coming-to-an-end-so-take-jesus-christ-as-ur-lord-and-saviour freak??!! What annoys me most is when the person is another Ghanaian who thinks that being here for 6years makes 'em non-Ghanaian, when their living in a cramped 1-bedroom council flat withtheir whole family [which by the way, I do].
See... I know i'm the stuck-in-the-past type. Always wanting to draw attention to my being African [not the let's-all-go-back-to-Africa type]... I would never want to fit in by talking "posh" cos that sucks.
After those that have been here a few yrs comes those that have been here too long to know that things have changed back at home. Those that refer to Ghanaians as "you Ghanaians". And have to put that in every other sentence or so[my mum's guilty here]. Putting themselves out of the equation. Yeah fine you've been here 10years or so, but you dont have to constantly remind me that you're NOT Ghanaian. For all I know when you go to Ghana you wont survive 'cos you'll be the NOBODY you were when you left after all this time.
That's why I never put anyone down 'cos I was one of 'em NOBODIES when I was there. Yeah I knew how to live big but I never did cos it wasnt rosy. Didnt have no cars to drive around like some friends did. And I still dont. So you see things havent changed much for me. I didnt have anything but my brain back in Ghana, and that's all I still have left. None of my parents are rich enough to leave me with something big someday so whatever I get now is what I'll be left with.
I have enough problems not to put up with, "So do you have DVDs in Ghana?". Fuck you!! I bet you dont own one yourself... you just see it on telly. I didnt own one.... nor did my Dad. I just had to be teased by it in shops like u're being teased by it on telly here.
"Did you know Jay-Z before you came to London?"... Your mother!!. I probablt follow hip-hop more than you do and always will, 'cos U're a Garage person. You listen to that repetitive nonsense which is only known in the UK cos no one else is high up on drugs enough to "bounce" to that.
"Did you ever see a computer in Ghana?" Arrrrrrrrrrrgh!! Wish I could punch you and get away wit it as easily as I woul've in Ghana. Thanks for such a stupid question, but if you may know... I shared 10 computers with some 1200 of my mates in school... and that's just the lucky ones, you ignorant bastard.
And the worst is probably with those stuck-up Ghanaian girls [and women] that go like, "...That's why I'll never go out with a Ghanaian guy" after telling you the most stupid of breakup stories. I mean... are guys NOT from Ghana NOT capable of that???!!! That's so shitty. Yeah so you wont go out with Ghanaian guys... who cares? There are a million other girls [and women] out there who would gladly go out with Ghanaian guys. Take your arrogant p**sy and do .... i dunno but whatever you wanna do with it 'cos like i said, there's million out there who'll gladly share theirs with the "piss-taking Ghanaian guys"
<sighs>
