More crime

This time on the campus of the university of the west indies. First it was the rape of a student on one of the newer halls, the one near the bowl (AZ Preston), now the hold up of a guy on Irvine Hall.

You know that I used to frequent there when I was a student? As the article says, any stray animal or person can get into there. In my time them never have no gate. Now them have gate what don't wuk.

Anyway, I like how the writer included the fact that Mr Buchanan was escorting the female student to her room after a night of studying.......

But this is clearly not trivial stuff. What am I doing in Jamaica for so long man? I need to fly di coop. For it does feel like I in a prison.

Heard about the rape, but not this latest one.

The security system on Campus and at the hospital are by no means fool proof IMHO.

I left since 1997. Since then, the longest I have been here is hmmmm, let's track it.

stayed in grenada until 2001

went to england to study from sept 2001 to may 2003
back in JA until august 2003 when i went to trinidad and grenada until november (work)

in jamaica from nov 2003 until went to grenada june 2004 until end of july (work)

went to st kitts from october 2004 until december.

been back here since 16 december. two months and counting....

So I guess the longest I have been back here aws from nov 24th 2003 until 12 june 2004. Seven months. And during that time I left to travel for cricket over about one month, so technically it wasn't 7 months straight.

see what I mean? Once 3 months pass, I get a little itchy to leave again, so hope something comes through soon!
