Reminiscence of campus teams.


#teamFocused
This team materialized in the exam room alone. Just a threat that there is an exam to be done in a few could not make one focused. The sight of an actual exam paper was the only thing that made me to join the team. Other guys joined this team as a well worked out ploy to net the hot chic in the library. It takes a lot of mega-calories to sustain your soul in this team.
#teamUnfocused
Just like everybody I spent most of the time here. It required doing everything your mother will scorn and nothing academic. The sun usually rises at 10 am and sets at 1 am. The growing need for an extra time for movies leads to extension of time for 1 to 2 am. Class time tables are vaguely heard of. Just a handful of classes are lucky to be attended. These are the classes that involve CATS or threats of impromptu CATS. A semester can easily end without attending a lecture.
#teamLastminute
It was never my fault to be in this team. I blame it on the bad influence I had from my close buddies. Mnajijua. Here,it is basically unlawful do anything on time. If it is so urgent, it is done at the last minute. All assignments were done at the last minute. The time that was supposed to be allocated for doing them is usually spent in thinking about the font size and the lecturer’s official names. Needless to say that I attended the few classes, late. One time we almost ran into trouble when we showed up for a CAT, 1 hour late. 60 minutes late. I still insist that it was not my fault. I blame the guys I hang around with. Anyway we did it in the remaining 30 minutes and …wait for it…passed with As.
teamEPL
No premier league passed our watchful eyes without scrutiny. It also involved a lot of ridicule when one’s team is beaten. This team also encompassed other competitions such as Champions league and la liga. 12 o’clock matches are comfortably watched to the very end, together with post-match analysis. This team has members with PHDs in clenching their bottoms till some guy in a UK stadium fails to score a last minute penalty. In the process, the electricity might go off for some minutes or DSTV might hang. That’s how sp(ass)ialized they are.
#teamMafisi
This team had people with hyena blood. The members were mandated to do anything in their powers to ensure their sexual orientation is well broadcasted. Everything involving females was tackled by this team. Shule hazijafunguliwa, Parental discretion is definitely advised.
#teamUji
This team comprised of four guys bitten by the uji bug. Porridge was to be consumed daily in huge amounts. Given the tight schedules of running other teams, it was mostly prepared and taken at 1am. That was an appropriate time also because there was minimum interference from third parties. That was also the only time in which it was lawful for Kevo’s cup and Funk’s bowl to be used. Otherwise 911 calls would be made reporting alien items on earth. Those two items were definitely stolen from the planet where giants live.
#teamAwesome
This is a combination of bright minds taking life on a normal gear. Awesomeness ooze in every step they take, every word they utter. The guys I interacted with were all simply awesome. The team that makes most of the campus memories… memorable.
