How to know when you have found genuine, lifelong friends

They would not let you get lost in Fort Jeudy, but would rearrange their entire day so they can accompany you on your exploits


They would make sure you don’t do things you might later regret, like going on a moonlight hash with persons of questionable morals

They would buy cane juice, dhal and conchee for you when the vendors pass by their workplace (because they know you have never tasted it before) and then call you and tell you that you have to pass by them to collect it

They would accompany you to a fishing village one hour away on a Friday night so you would not have to make that drive for yourself to do an ISCF promotional


They would keep you up playing Blitz until midnight while your Trini friends’ flight has been delayed (thanks LIAT). They would also come to the airport in case all the luggage can’t fit into your car (which it couldn’t), drop the luggage at your house and then get home after 1am, and not complain even though they have to get up early the next morning to go to work

They would come home after a hard day of work and spend over an hour making Tannia Log for your Trini friends who were going home the next day.


They would know the details of your job so well that they will be able to alert you when a major sporting event has been scheduled on the same date as the proposed ISCF student launch

They would put you in touch with all their friends and acquaintances on television and radio so the ISCF student launch can be promoted for free

They would let their ride leave them and take the bus to work (forgetting home their lunch in the process) so they can tape your television interview so you can see what you looked like on TV

They would invite you to a birthday lime for a family member you only met once because they know how much you would love a Sunday afternoon yacht cruise


They would not let a day go by without checking in with you (usually multiple times a day) to see how you are doing



Love my Grenadian sister and brother!!!
