Yardies at home and farrin (part 10)

[TRELAWNY PARISH 10]

So for those who aren't Jamaican and didn't know patois, how long did it take before you could start to catch on to most of what you were hearing?

The other day I talked to his Grandma and it seemed like either she was speaking more clearly than I'd heard before or I just understand what she says better now. I try so hard to understand but when it gets going fast and furious, I might as well be listening to French! My honey has been speaking it to me because he wants me to start understanding and I think I'm doing better but there are times I have to tell him to say it so I can understand.

I swear though, one night on my first official trip to visit him, a full car load of us were coming back from the club and I'd had several rum punches and was feeling good. I don't remember the exact conversation, but I do remember that it seemed like I was really understanding what they were saying and it was hilarious....we were all rolling! Maybe being buzzed help me open my ears better! LOL!

Anyone else have any experiences understanding patois?

ells if you want to know patois well just only read tre post dem because she full a patois fi all of us.

i went to groom my locks yesterday and i foolishly request for it to be done tighter. lawd the only place i didn't try to sleep on was mi face.i turn till it look like i was dancing in mi sleep.

LMAO...mi wan fe see wan pictra please ma'am. Mi nuh wan fe sound hignorant...but mi neva see too many Jamaican women wid locks when mi go. Mi love locks but mi tuh scared fe do ie.

my locks are fine so they look like braids. it took a couple of months well before 1 of my employer knows that i have locks. i will try to get a pic on here

I want locks, I have been growing my hair out for about 1.5year now, everytime i see someone with nice locks I say i am going to get mine, this I see someone with their natural hair and I change my mind. Now sure how I would wear it for the wedding if I did have locks, but I see some really nice up dos.

Yardies this is ur laugh for today First I put myself on GYM PUNISHMENT due to the 4 huge pounds I gained during the Holiday( didn't work out and had a love affair with a Sweet Potatoe Pie) so I have to go to the Gym everyday before my trip in January. I got to the gym and low and behold I had left my workout clothes at home. I restarted my car stating "The devil is a lie I will not break my punishment" . I went to TJMAX and found a pair of Gym shorts($5) and a shirt ($5) pants large shirt XTRA Large. Went to change in the gym put the pants on said damn they fit not loosely( the belly roll showed). Put on the shirt to cover the belly and looked like I had been in KIMMY'S , SUS or PORTLAND'S closet. I looked like the Michelen MAN in BLACK. Every roll that I thought I had showed . Being the Diva that I am I proceeded out of the dressingroom into the Gym untill I past a mirror. . I took my fat Azz bact to the locker and put on my uniform top that did not match in any shape or form to the pants and worked out. I had a kids Xtra large top . Lessoned learned try my clothes on.

THAT is some determination though right there!

I can "feel" the stuggle trying to get back out of that top. LMAO...
