What I like about being Somali:
- Generosity and Giving. The feeling every Somali has in them that if there is a need, Somalis will come through to help you out regardless of clan.
- Poetry - We are called a nation of poets.
- Beauty - Our women are world class beauties
- Intelligence - Fresh Off the Boat and poorly speaking English at first, Many Somalis with no serious education make to colleges and do the best degrees. I have seen Camel Herders doing engineering Degree and wondered how the f*ck are they doing this? I say this compared to me who was born in a city and to educated parents, yet Somalis in their majority today who didn't have that background are Nurses, Engineers, Lawyers etc. It is that Somali attitude of "I can Do It if a Gaal did it" that makes us very smart and adapting.
- We got the coolest Party songs that bring together old and Young, Hijabi and non-Hijabi
- This ONE IS THE BEST --> PRIDE IN BEING SOMALI. Almost always a Somali is proud to be a somali.
