Che -Guevara Posted February 16, 2007 I think Xaawo Taako was our nemesis. Apparently they were better than us. Are you talking nimco gaabee in class B. Her brother was in sixth grade. Midoo gaaban oo kibir badan aheed. Dadka walaalkeed looga cabsoon jiray. The two nimco's Iam talking were in class J or X. I missed the fights at the taalo. And remember the ladies selling bajiye and bataati at the front. N what was principle's name? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
me Posted February 16, 2007 GRRRR Xaawo taako! btw Xaawo Taako was not better then us school pride please. I don't know the principals name, I know how she looked like, she was tall,dark, used to wear glasses and she was tuff, everyone was scared of her. I remember the bajiyes, and the bread with tuna or bread with sambuuse sold at school. I also remember this female teacher bringing sisin balls or laws balls. Mannnnn now it all makes sense the teachers had it bad in those days and she was trying to make some extra money selling those candy at school. What was the brother of that nimco called?

Zafir Posted February 16, 2007 I believe her name was Zaynab or Samsam one of the two, I am not too sure. But she was a lovely lady. Does either of you remembers that cure lady teacher who use to teach science's name? she was too young for a teacher wasn't she? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar Posted February 18, 2007 Meeshaas monument ku taalo Daljirka Dahsoon waaye. Magac qurxoonaa. Daljirka Dahsoon. Indeed. Agagaarkaas waligeey ma gaarin. In fact, Fiya-eejito iyo Dahablaha oo Ceelgaab iyo Xamarweyne ka tirsanaa waligeey ma u dhaafin dhanka waqooyiga Xamar. Fiya-eejita hooyadeen u raaci jiray markee baqaaraha xaga ku yaalay wax ka doonan jirtay, oo bodyguards u ahayn, I and my older brother. Boorsadeeda ilaalin jirnay because once iyadoo iska warqabin sakiin la mariye boorsada, oo wixii ku jiray laga baxsaday; since that day, gadaasheeda socon jirnay marmar ee Ceelgaab, Xamarweyne iyo meelahaas aado, even as a 8-year-old and 9-year-old boys. Watch this , by the way. It is a recent video laga soo aaday that area, including iskoolka Bartamaha, Baar Fiat, wasaaradihii, wakaaladihii iyo madbacadihii meeshaas ku yaalay, iyo hoteladii caanka ahaa too, sida kan Jubba.

Foxy Posted February 18, 2007 ^^ regarding the clip> one would imagine hadii magaaladii ay qabsadeen they would make an effort to atleast look after it not take out every glass window, every gate, everything that could be dismantled? and they guy who is filming goes on about how safe its is to film ever since the bloody courts came to power? what a joker? the bililiqo started agian the minute they took the cimaamada out and brought out their guns out.

Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar Posted February 19, 2007 Isbitaal Banaadir, meesha la igu dhalay. Dankis Daa'uud Waraaqle, that site really has some wonderful, rare pictures from Soomaaliya. How indeed paradise-looking the country was, especially Xamar, which always reminds us what we single-handedly destroyed on our own hands. Shame. Eebbe ha idmo, we will try to rebuild. A typical xaafad with typical houses in Xamar, sadly reminding me how our xaafad looked like. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms DD Posted February 19, 2007 Salaam Thanks for this walaalayaal. I was just thinking about my old school Xaawo Taako and the theater and the library.. Then i was thinking of Yusuf Al Kowneyn and its surroundings...We had a country. Keep these pictures coming Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
me Posted February 19, 2007 ^We still have a country it needs some dusting off, thats all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms DD Posted February 19, 2007 Salaam eedo Salaam aleykum Me Long time no see. Inshallah you and your family are well. About the country needing dusting off..I think it needs much more than that. Who built Mogadishu? Surely Somalis built some of those marvelous buildings with lovely architecture after we got our independence from the Italians.
