That means you are perfectly normal. you see, because it has been an oral language, there is no standardized writing system, . so what is correct and incorrect is totally subjective. There is a writing system developed at the university but it is meeting some resitance especally among older people. A couple of schools are embracing it. It is loosely called the Cassidy system and it was developed by two British Linguists who were in Jamaica, Frederick Cassidy and Robert lePage

No I did not. However, I took a team to canada three or so yuears ago when we were recording her CD and we havew hours of footage of Miss Lou singing and perfomring and telling sotires, along with Eric Coverley, her husband who has since died. This s is still to be edited, but it is really great material

Decide on your priorities, sometimes you have to drop some things out of your schedule. Organizing is crucial. My baby goes to daycare. At night before I go to bed I pack his bag, selec what he will wear in the morning, select what I will wear and take it out of the closet. AIf you leave it in the closet, when you goin in to pick it out in the morning you may see something a else and spend five valuable minutes wondering if you should wear this or that. Honestly, every minute counts.

Whenver you go somewhere and you are likely to have to wait, carry soemthing that you need to work on withyou.. a report you need to write, something yu need to read or whatever.. utilize the time well.

There is always so much going on. Depends on what your interest are. the newspaper is always a great source of information so you know what is avaialable, what is on. Jamaica is always happening
