Life with Jamike: When The Carnival Came...

So on Thursday 4 weeks ago, the AMSA Social Director - Alex Omotoso, with his capable team, decided to throw some flavour into the soup that is medical life in Ido(ABUAD).

Here are a few highlights of the Super Duper Flavourfest.

First I'd like you to meet the organizers. The spices.

(Do you recognize them? Give them a shoutout in the comments section if you do, and send them the link. ;)

So now, it's pretty simple. All you need is a ton of money, and lots of slave labour in the shape of friends.

A friend in need, is a friend indeed.

We had canopies everwhere of course...

Yknow... To shelter us from this everlasting fire called sun.

Let's not forget the beautiful band

Playing music I really didn't understand a single word of.

Then the people hired to wiggle-jiggle their bodies around for our apparent entertainment...

wiggle, wiggle, wiggle...

Of course, the DJ was on point

You know... playing other peoples music.

We can't forget our wonderful MC

It was funny when he told jokes that weren't funny...

Now remember, In every carnival, there just has to be games like pool

Let loose!

Chess

You can see this poor med student losing to the genius child

Ludo

A classic game, really

WHOT became a serious something that day

Enemies were made. Friendships were lost.

Table tennis

So you can dab with the tennis paddle

FIFA, Basketball, Naruto

Because HD graphics + air conditioner = happiness

We had lots of categories of people around in the carnival...

Because you know Nigerians like turnup too much

From the people who always look cute...

Wink wink*

To the doctors who still know how to have a great time with their students...

♫ ni ojuelegba o, dem know my story..... ♫

To the Ido Complex officials who made sure we had fun, and didn't let us do it alone...

Youth is all about perspective!!

To the nursing students who graced our occasion, like flowers to our grass field...

*Snap*

To the people that came to slay, with their hair waving in HD slow-mo...

swish, swish....

Then the people that are just photogenic....

I should be here Hehehehe

To the photographers looking for that perfect shot

Move to position!! You think this is a joke??

To the financial Secretary trying to calculate how to get all this spent money back...

Alex...

Of course, we can't forget the protocol people, they slay everyday, and every way.

♫She woke up like this... She woke up like this...♫

Then, you just can't forget about the multifaceted business opportunities that sprouted up

This recession is not a joke again.

Makeup to hide away, and mask, your sorrows

Because beauty is now expensive

Facepaint; to bring out your inner child - and for the children, to bring out that beautiful unburdened-by-the-life-changing-experience-of-puberty smiles, abounding in every corner of your cheeks.
