00:00:00
one of the things I know I've really lit
00:00:01
myself down on is not being able to
00:00:03
speak my language speaks full samon
00:00:05
fluently and I can blame you know
00:00:07
growing up in toor there wasn't many
00:00:08
people to talk to but something when I
00:00:11
when as I go through life I'm still open
00:00:13
to learning but I'm GED I didn't learn
00:00:16
my language beginning of the year I had
00:00:18
the chance to take the um member of the
00:00:21
the the of the speaker for the
00:00:23
parliament of s take him through all
00:00:25
black experience just him and his team
00:00:28
but I couldn't sleep that night because
00:00:29
I was thinking to to myself how do I
00:00:31
greet properly respectfully and do this
00:00:35
properly so even when I was driving all
00:00:36
the way in I was just like man I feel
00:00:38
like I'm letting down my family you know
00:00:40
cuz as I walk in there you carry your
00:00:42
family name as well so and it wasn't
00:00:44
until I get to like Spaghetti Junction
00:00:46
no almost there I was just like well
00:00:48
you're just going to have to accept me
00:00:49
for who I am I'm a proud Simon I'm GED I
00:00:52
can't speak Simon fluently but I'm proud
00:00:55
of my roots
