Based on personal experience, I wish to combine this list of people you will probably meet in a foreign university, like U.S, Cyprus, Canada, U.K. .. Let’s get the ball rolling. This is meant to be fun, please do not get all serious on me.
1. The Patriots.
This set of people can do anything and will always do anything to defend their home-country from outside attacks/jabs. They are just so patriotic. I will take myself for an example, I took a course this past semester called “Global Issues” – where you discuss happenings in the world, the problems, how to tackle them etc. WHO had declared Nigeria Ebola free when my professor still wouldn’t stop including Nigeria as part of the countries suffering from the outbreak, I’d walk up to his slides, go to BBC and show him, he’d see it and apologize.
2. The Nationalists.
This set of people’s dressing will always tell you where they’re from even without them telling you. Like some people’s dressing – white T-shirt, green sweatpants, white shoes, green snapback, white backpack, you already know they’re from Nigeria.
3. The Attention-Seekers.
This set of people will do anything – I mean anything to seek attention especially from the opposite sex, you will see them asking incoherent/irrelevant questions not related a bit to the topic being discussed in class. Just for them to get noticed.
Questions like, “If I throw a triangle out of a car and the car is going 20 mph and wind resistance is a thing that exists, how many cupcakes can Pedro buy with one human soul?”
4. The Accent-Fakers.
This set of people have only been in Canada/America/UK for a month, but you will see them faking accents, which makes it more difficult for the Natives to understand them, be in class, mall or church, they have no idea how silly they sound when doing this.
5. The Accent-Fighter.
This set of people, especially Indians, will ‘forever’ have problem with their accent, vocal cords not changing. When people have spent so many years and their accent is already blending/changing to the country’s, their own never change – Akure, Ekiti, and Calabar etc are not excluded.
6. The Geeks/Nerds.
This people will not utter a single word in class, you will see them with glasses glued to their eyes they have no social life. They spend almost 15hrs of their 24hrs studying. …and you wonder why they whine when the result comes out and they have 90.
7. The Flamboyant People.
This set of people always will dress in a deliberately way to impress other people, in a -20 degrees weather you’ll see them wearing Calvin Clein, Jordans, snapbacks when other people are dressing in layers, wearing winter jacket, snowpants, snowboots etc. After being outside for a minute, you see them shivering from their head to toe. Some even land in hospital, all in the name of impressing. Aunty, Uncle, dress to survive not to impress. Lmfao!!!
