She’s got it!

I don’t know what it is about these Rwandan women.

Back in Dar, we had this neighbour kid. She had to be, what, twelve? Fifteen at most; she didn’t even have proper … rib-padding yet. But when she walked, you just couldn’t help staring.

Here was a tall, polite, pre-pubescent girl in an extremely unflattering school uniform, but you still couldn’t take your eyes off her. She’s tall [er than me. At 12! And I’m 5’6!!] , light, graceful, and when she walks I swear I hear music playing … and I’m straight!

Yesterday I saw another one. She was full grown, 5’8, semi-light-skinned with glasses and a bob. She was wearing a blue v-neck t-shirt, pedals, and strappy sandals, nothing remarkable. But she had style and those Rwandese hips.

This girl walked like a cat. I don’t mean she was cat-walking in the choreographed way of trained models, no. She was just strolling, off-guard, yet she could have put any beauty queen to shame. Yaani her walk is just sheer grace. I glanced at her once as I walked past, then looked again, trying not to be too impolite. I noted that she looked good, in an effortless, unpolished kind of way, then walked on.

But then I noticed a few watchmen literally breaking their necks as she passed. You know that thing wolf-cartoons do where the eyes are glued to a person and the neck swivels trying not to break contact? They were doing that.

A few metres away I noticed some … people having the same reaction. Except these people were girls. One girl had actually stopped and turned to watch Ms Rwanda even though she was now almost 100 metres away.

What can I say, the girl had presence. They call it je ne sais quoi sijui X-Factor sijui nini-nini. They say it can’t be described, but that you know it when you see it.

Me, I saw it, and I know it.

And the coolest part is she didn’t even know it. She was just strolling along minding her own business, totally unaffected, with her handsfree thingies [or possibly an ipod] in her ears.

Ai, kweli huyo, ameumbika.

In less jaw-dropping news, is it just me or that billboard, the Fanta one, the one where a guy and a girl are sharing a drink out of one bottle using two straws [there’s one on Mbagathi roundabout and another on valley road] … is it just me or is the Fanta in that bottle yellow?

Queen of randomness-ness-ness-ness etc.. does it again. The fanta ad? *high-pitched* Randooom!. As a random person myself, wow.

but it’s yellow!?

I know this Rwandese girl though & she ain’t got it. Maybe she’s lived in Kenya too long she lost it. 😉

hehehe!

les Rwandaises are just different, unique in their appearance, demeanour, the way they carry themselves and the way they speak in that seksy french/kinyarwanda accent. *le sigh* All these things just add to their mystique.

It makes me wonder how nationality creates these effects. I mean it’s not like being born between a lake and a bush tree in some way makes women tall, light and mysterious… does it? I know the genes affect their height an skin tone, and it’s possible that their culture and upbringing makes them sweet and demure, which automatically translates into alluring and mysterious, but what about the X factor? Like, if I were to go to deliver a baby there, would she osmote grace? Coz that’s an idea right there…

The problem with these Rwandese women, and Ethiopian too, is that they rarely date guys from other countries. Or maybe their country men are more protective. I wonder if I shud include them in my bucket list.
