The other evening, i was yapping with a few about school and the words we used to use and generally things of "great import". As per usual with memories..some things u just had to be there... im wondering if you didnt have some of these happenings tho...
Class entertainment: where u were expected to wow the school with a beautiful well chorographed dance number (s). (((now that i think about it.. y did we always have to dance???))
But anyway..wonder if you had that lead "dance person" with all the instructions who would drill them in so that by the end of practice you are sooooorted.
How ever, the next morning, none of you could remember the steps.... even the "dance person"...LOL... those were the days...
lets see... words... ((interpretation is loosely based on my interpretation of said words)))
Suzi or suziee i suspect this was another way of saying "you joshin... kidding, joking, lying...
Bongo again-lying as in "u just told a fib" or u aint saying squat!
Fibbing....Spinning... see above
Jazzing yapping in short as in "can i jazz u" or "we were jazzing when....."
Banner/ burner/bana emerged from the bunsen burner oft in reference to s1's
Bana Bo/burner bo to date...i havent the slightest!
ki kati/stole ki mwana guy/charlie wats the plan??? whats up now? whats going on... whats the story? the mwana guy bit i always suspected was to just make it seem longer but anyhu..friend maybe?
charlies are usually young peeps about the town..myt also be shaddy by nature
Ki kati also in reference to the orangy/reddy look ur teeth take on when u have been innocently chewing on still husked ground nuts
Kiromo eve before holidays begin... which would be celebrated by housing oneself at the canteen right after "community work"
Housing/"giving in people" treating yourself and/0r peeps to some snacks or whatever
Community work cruelly invented term to get the school to clean up and give back to "community"
Earlymo scottish dancing in the morning 6'am style. Reserved for higher classes (s3-6) like highlight of your junior existance.
Green blooded turn coat juniors who suddenly felt sweet when they became A'levels
cata/kata/Mbogo misinteprete, mispronounce, misuse english
Onlie/onliay kinda like Only but with a twist on the end emphasis on whats being said..as if to say "munange!"
Zibs/bizibu problems
Be connecting word as in "You be there as i be here and we be meeting at that time then we be hanging okay?"
Split/bounce/burst/ blow this joint.... self explanatory
okay... need more input...as one foxylamb says... holla back!!!
ooooo please pass by skunk, interesting explanation/reason going down.

F I R S T!
kiromo was the best... so much excitement... you could practically feel it in the air... anticipating going home to be with family, to lounge, play, watch tv till 3am... basically all the things you couldn't do at school.
and you would eat yourself silly, banange to be young and innocent!
"in and out and Ladies ACROSS!"
"Moooooooooooove YOU LAZY COWS!"
"Don't forget the Bottrol standing in the middrol...Maho!Maho!Maho!"
"I must, i must, i must increase my bust! the bigger the better the boys that follow. i must increase my bust!"
"Diarrhea! It shoots from the bum like a bullet from the gun. Diarrhea"
.......
that's what some of your words have conjured up from the graveyard of my mind.
ugly ghosts.
Well Well
Haven't used "housing" in a while...
Eh...
What about For Shizzle Ma Nizzle!
Reading this slang reminds me of how old I am. Almost all of them were way after my time. Ahhh ...
Apart from earlymo of course. Damn you Gayaza High!
Very interesting that we shared none of them, does that mean i am eons older than this lot here?
Blue does become you
((bounces before she can retort in Tandraesque style))
Kiromo=Night more...
OMG, this makes me feel old too...Tandra, don't disorganise my buttons by makin me look old.

What about "social- pronounced socho" and "consti" or "de-day pronounced "deedae"- and "cow dance"- surely these dancing affairs warrant a remembrance?
And for those in certain age-groups there were teachers called "Ancie and Morde"- to mean "Ancient and Mordern" like that ka hymn book we used to use (sigh)those were the days T- those were the days!
Can only relate to community work. Hated it, hated it. Ggrrrrrrrhhhhhhhhh
@B2B;for shizzle i remember that line though not in ma school but among smackists.
good memories tandra,
From kiromo i also recall term egenda...
@tumwi;this is your chance to turn back the hands of time
