Most of my life-long friendships were built in boarding school back home in Cameroon. If you went to boarding school in Africa, you probably spent 9 months out of 12 with about 15-30 other students in a large hall filled with bunk beds and called dormitories. Life was hard, challenging, and fun, but most importantly, the values and relationships that were achieved cannot be quantified.

Sometimes, I look back and reminisce about my 7 years of life in boarding school either with friends or in my solitude. So, I decided to call up a few of my friends to share some of their fondest memories while they were in boarding school. This, indeed, was such a fun episode for me and to say I felt nostalgic is an understatement. I hope you do too!

Tweetable Quotes

“I think it's boarding school that taught us how to be very independent. Because think about the schedules - like at 5:30 in the morning, we wake up. Now they even have 7-8-year-old kids waking up and going through all of that at a very young age so, by 10, 12 years old, you're gonna be so independent and so resistant to stress or too hard life that you can only go onwards.”- Anyoh Fombad

“The best part about [an all-girls boarding school] is that it grows your womanhood. It really does create sisterhood, it helps you to appreciate your fellow woman, and it just grows you and helps you focus on things that are naturally feminine.” - Antoinette F

“A lot of Africans tend to do well in the United States because you have to be disciplined to do certain things at certain times. In fact, the system itself puts you in a situation where you have to be at work at a certain time, you have to be able to be back home, cook, do certain things, and go to sleep at a certain time. That discipline is something that we grew up harnessing [in boarding school] as little kids.” - Abermo M

"Boarding school helped shape me into the woman that I am today. Many of the friends that I have are folks that I met in boarding school. I have friends that I have made along the way [in life after boarding school], but those relationships are not as strong as the ones that I made in Boarding school.” - Sharon N
