Talking to this African kid really made me rethink things. He's grown up with a whole different set of experiences. He's like, "You guys have snow days? That's cute.

Ever tried explaining slang to someone from a completely different background? I'm with this African kid, and I'm like, "That movie was sick!" He's looking at me like, "Why would you enjoy an ill movie?" Then I realize, explaining slang is like trying to describe colors to someone born blind.

So, this African kid moved into my neighborhood, and we're trying to bond, you know? He's telling me about his favorite foods, and I'm like, "Cool, we should grab some lunch together!" Next thing I know, I'm munching on this insanely spicy dish, tears streaming down my face, while he's just sitting there, cool as a cucumber, saying, "Oh, this? It's nothing, you should try our local fire sauce!
