long time no SEE huh?...

 hi fam....

yeah. definitely long time no write. This year I am loving being a Truman student. I see so many things here and have so many oppurtunities that i wonder if my peers in other colleges get to experience. I love our professor and all the wierd shit they say. I got keys to shit. makes me feel important. Life as an upperclassman aint been bad at all. My apartment... messy and still kinda unorganized. but thats juz cuz im poor. FUCK what ya wanna say. my shit is nice and will prolly be laid out right in about a week or two. Sadly im waiting for payday. Thats the other really funny thing. So this semester i have started worked at ONE of our Kirksville McDonalds. Thats right im a representative of the Golden Arches . The people i work wit is hilarioius. From the various black people to the zany ass white people. I get paid to laugh my ass off at a place that smells delicious and feeds me. wtf... sounds like a good thing to me. maybe im just a simple bitch. but im pleasantly pleased.

As far as class... I see my goals. Ive figured out my hurdles but i still havent managed that perfect techinque to conquer them. I let stupid shit get me unfocused like drama, or clubs, or i might just randomly start working on this puzzle im tryna finish. I know. not good. Im not good at waking up in the morning. Yep, its a sick sad truth. My body naturally wakes me up a lil bit before nine. BUT my class start at 8:30AM which is a lil more than a bit before nine. Fuck that man. it like pisses me off when i miss a class. I like want a refund or something. YOU... right there teaching. Give me $2. Damn RIGHT!.but naw i know its my fault. Im working on it. I still get the homework done. Mostly because my on campus job is the shiznit. thats right is said it... shiznit. I get paid to sit on campus when would been there anyway to zerox some papers for like 10 mins and then do my home work. Sound like just another sweet deal. Im Blessed. Thank God!

i think i have expressed all that i wanted to so now i must go. yall stay strong and be up and all that other cool shit people say. :)

WOW... so its been awhile huh?!?

ok so yeah... if your my friend and youre reading you this your probably like "hey that chick never called me and told me that". true... but not on purpose. This weekend was hell on wheels (not to say that it was all bad but definitely above and beyond hectic) and then there was Montage on Monday which i had to act and STEP in. i know right... OUTRAGEOUS. and i moved in on monday after throwing a party on sunday. Well enough excuses... now for the goodies.

This weekend was good all in all. I attended a retreat and got somethings off my chest which is good cuz most of em werent mines to have anyways. While being at the retreat i also had to make time for Montage practice on Saturday and Sunday. Montage definitely caused some problems with scheduling my life this past weekend. I just had to much shit to do and i knew that this morning i was heading out of the ville so i had to get stuff done. On sunday the party was a sucess. I definitely appreciate those of you that came and for those of you that didnt there will always be a next time, right?... RIGHT! people managed to enjoy themselves yet still be out of my house before 2am. which is good since most of u had to wake up for stuff in the morning for Montage practice and the freshmen had class. Some funny shit happened that night though. 1) the people that hooked up. random props to you all. more hook ups need to happen at truman. seems like we just arent go getters here. 2) the biggest woman of my life was drunk of her ass. She had fallen once in my doorway outside blocking the entire entrance in her drunken stupor. Then later that evening her boyfriend threw up outside and within an hour and a half her silly ass fell in it. I was tryna run and turn on the porch lights and shit so i could take pictures but my camera phone aint shit. but my girl barbie caught that shit on her camera. HILARIOUS... u feel me? 3) My freshman girl homie... who shall remain nameless was hilariously drunk. lets just say by the end of the night i had pictures of her drunk ass falling out of the chair. not so hilarious since i was helping take care of her but still definitely a KODAK moment. Many of my peeps werent there at the party but like i said next time could be anytime. so everyone should always be prepared for a good time at the Double Aces (that me and Robyn's house for the asses who dont know). I was sad that yall wasnt there but i kicked it for yalls asses. Its all love.

Sometimes a stranger can be your best friend-

Sometimes being angry is the best mood-

Sometimes seeing you feel good makes me feel even better-

Sometimes hunger is the best food-

i just thought this was very interesting. stole it off my boy chad's facebook.

Just like old times...

Seems like in the past few days i've been able to do some things that i just havent done for too long. In D.C. I attended my family reunion and saw some cousins that i havent seen in years. I may not talk about it much but family is important to me and it saddens me how distant i am with the majority of my family(partly due to the fact that everyone lives on the EAST coast). My importance of family has actually been strengthened mostly threw people who are not my blood at all. In elementary school i had a grandma that came to all my stuff. A grandpa too. but neither of them were blood. just loving church members. A lot of my friends families are close to me also and I love that they love me not a stranger but as their own child, sister, or other relative. But yeah... it was still hood as hell. Nothing that we did was what was actually on the itenerary. For some reason my intenerary said SEAFOOD restaurant and i ended up at some janky all u can eat Chinamen Buffet. Im sitting there over mongolian bbq and shit like.. if you from the lou like i am we not real big on other cities chinese foods... so u know i was pissed

In addition to the family reunion I got to see my sister and my brand new baby neice. My ONLY niece. I hadnt seen my sister since her shower since her shower way back in early March. I miss her and she was definitely my ROCK last semester. always holding me down when others couldnt. Gotta love her cuz she is THAT big sister (Tea u know what i mean) she forever and always got my back, front, and side to side

Last but not least I went to the muthafucking Cheese Cake Factory.... I know some of u are sitting are your screen making boo boo faces like "that place to expensive u should went to applebee's" but the Factory is a fucking TRADITION in my mind. Almost as important as standing to the national anthem. Me and my girls wreck niggas minds and we celebrate that with delicious cheesecake. It hadnt been done in a while and Im glad that it happened before my girl QWEET returned to her school town ATL for Spelman. Im uber proud of that chick... thats right i said UBER!

So since the summer is almost over I encourage everyone to do something that u have never done or celebrate and do something u used to always do.

and OH YEAH!!!... Congrat u Fucking LATIONS to Tiara Chanel Williamson and Nicholas Jordan Ferrer... each and both seperately my niggas and im am glad that yall have and support each other. Stay Strong. I year is minimal in all that is promised in both of you alls live

And im OWT this bitch...
