This shows how much we like the Bajans.

Takes Place in Barbados

A first grade teacher explains to her class that she is Bajan.(Born in Barbados) She asked her students to raise their hands if they were Bajan too. Not really knowing why but wanting to be like their teacher, their hands explode into the air like flashy fireworks. There is, however, one exception. A girl named Charlene has not gone along with the crowd.

The teacher asks her why she has decided to be different. "Because I am not Bajan." "Then", asked the teacher, "What are you?". Im a proud Trini." boasts the little girl.

The teacher is a little perturbed now, her face slightly red. She asked Charlene why she is a Trini. "Well, my mom and dad are Trini, so i am Trini too."

The teacher is now angry. "Thats no reason," she says loudly. "What if your mom was a moron, and your dad was a moron. What would you be then?" A pause and then a smile. "Then," says Charlene "I would be a Bajan."
