Culture I donโt feel Jamaican enough
Iโm Jamaican. my dadโs side is fully Jamaican with a little bit of Chinese in there somewhere. and my mom is a whole bunch of shit(๐ง๐ง๐ฌ๐พ๐ฏ๐ฒand more) and she was born in England. I grew up around Jamaicans my whole life, iโve been home 4 times(went to a resort once when i was young but every other time Iโm at my cousins house, I love dominos, I can eat more patty in one sitting then my father,i love fry and boil dumplin and festival and when Iโm at my aunts houses theyโre always cook oxtail rice and peas jerk chicken curry goat curry chicken chicken foot. and they all speak patois. but i canโt speak patois and i struggle to understand someone speaking fast(i struggle to understand ppl in English too sometimes but patois is always and i need complete concentration). and my parents cant make oxtail or rice and peas or curry(my mom can she just doesnโt like the smell) my mom will make aki no salt fish cus my dad doesnโt like fish( I donโt love it either but ill eat mackerel, tuna, salt fish every day). and I didnโt use to listen to soca and reggae but my Trini friend was listening to it in the car once and i always liked it but i realized i can listen to it on my own too so iโve been collecting songs that iโve heard before and that my mom likes and that i like to listen to because its honestly my favourite genre. but all that aside being in university I see people including my friend that feel more authentic than me because they know the lyrics to songs i donโt because they went to caribana(carnival) every year and I only went as a kid and recently because thats when my parents let me and also they say i canโt wine but i remember my motha teaching me when i was like 4 she just never let me go out and i forgot. i have my ๐ง๐งcitizenship and my ๐ง๐งpassport but i want my jamaican citizenship and passport which i can get because my grandpa is jamaican and i want to have it so i can go back without a visa. but my grandfather is 81 and I donโt want to bother him. and my dad is always busy so he never got his citizenship or passport. but their both getting old I donโt want to wait too long.

Education Jamaica College "Punsi Tree" myth?๐ญ๐ญ๐
As a kid back in prep school I'd hear what could only be described as "horror stories" about how the JC older yutes would pretty much force the incoming 7th graders into some sort of hazing involving a tree which they dubbed "Punsi tree". Does anyone else remember hearing this shit?๐ญ๐ This whole myth used to have me scared to put JC on my list for schools of choice ๐๐๐

Real Estate Realtor Recommendations
My husband and I recently returned from a trip to Montego Bay and had a nightmare of a time trying to connect with a realtor. We are looking to purchase land in a gated community to build on, as well as a 1+ bedroom condo to make our homebase as we go through the construction process. We were finally able to view a property in Spring Farm after pulling some strings, but I have yet to get a response from a realtor from the inquiries we have made regarding the condos and are still on the hunt for land.
I tried reaching out from both my Canadian phone number and our Jamaican number (I am Canadian, my fiance is Jamaican-born and has been living in Canada for the past 20 years). The one realtor I was able to get on the phone told me she was too busy doing something else to talk to me and to message her on WhatsApp instead... And I never heard back from her.
Any tips for getting in touch with someone who is actually interested in a sale? I never thought it would be so difficult since we aren't just window shopping...

Help Shipping Lithium Batteries
I've been trying to ship 2 LiFePO4 batteries for over 2 months, but I'm having a hard time finding any sea-freight carriers that will ship them. Has anyone shipped lithium batteries for their solar setup, if so, any recommendations on companies? I'm located in Texas, but willing to drive them elsewhere if needed for shipping. Thanks
