So this week is JASAC week- Jamaica Association of Students at Cave Hill. It started decently with a church service on Sunday, which I attended. Monday (Heroes' Day) was a flag raising ceremony at 6 a.m. which I did not attend. Today was the culture and food day. Disaster is a word I would like to use to describe it.
On Sunday, I volunteered to help out at the cultural showcase. My shift was 2 - 3 p.m. I got there and started to hear all the "mishaps" happening with the food. I wasn't overly comfortable with the whole situation either, but hey. After my shift, I decided to try and get some food cause now mi ungry! I go into the place, seems rather disorganised and food didn't seem to be available or ready. Ok. Left for a bit and went back. Decided that since they had nothing I wanted (chicken), I was gonna get soup. So I paid for soup. As I was waiting to get said soup, a man, clearly J'can, started to cuss. Instead of serving me my soup since I was standing in front of him and trying to get his attention, another man (server clearly) decided to tek on di odda man. Needless to say it got rowdy. I just took my ticket, walked out, and went home. I ate food that I had here waiting for me, no drama involved. I count the $5 I paid but a loss. I didn't think it made any sense trying to get back my money if I couldn't get my food without waiting til they decided to calm down. Not inna dat.
The play and concert is on Friday. They claim it should be good. It better be!
