Face Full of Dirt: My Funniest Sports Day Memory

June 9, 2025

As a child, I was never particularly interested in sports. I didn’t play sports, I didn’t watch it, and I didn’t know much about it, nor did I care to, for that matter. I vaguely remember taking part in a few sack races for sports day or during P.E. class, but that was it. Later on, while in high school, the disinterest didn’t change much. However, during the Olympics, I would watch gymnastics, diving and a few of the field events. I attended sports day at school mainly to hang out with my friends and occasionally cheer for my house. When I started university, I was almost back to square one. I had no business participating in sports events, but if I hadn’t, I would not be able to write about it now.

Life before the internet was marked by a slower pace, different social interactions, and unique ways of accessing information and entertainment.

Gran’ Market Chronicles: A Reflection of Gran’ Market in Jamaica

December 24, 2023

‘Twas the night before Christmas and all through the streets people peddled their wares, while children enjoyed their treats *snap, snap, snap*. Growing up in Jamaica one of the things I looked forward to the most at Christmastime was our Grand Market. Gran’ Market is held annually on Christmas Eve and is a huge event that takes place in towns and cities across the island. It is generally an all-day event that involves food, music and shopping. Christmas is right around the corner and since we are so close to the big day I wanted to share my memories of Gran’ market.
