Your life is fucked..

WOW... just wow. (via FML)

*Today, I received my passport in the mail. They got my birthdate wrong. Then I picked up my birth certificate that I had sent in with the application. Turns out my parents have been celebrating my birthday on the wrong day for 16 years. FML

*Today, I heard my sister masturbating in her room. I took the dog around the block to get out of the house, and I came back to see her leaving her room... my electric toothbrush in her hand. FML

*Today, my husband dropped me off at work, ten minutes later I got a text saying" I just dropped the b*tch off I'll be there in a few baby, miss you". I asked him about it he said he "I dont know what youre talking about Megan". My name isnt Megan, not even close. FML

*Today, my daughter asked me when was the first time I had sex. After I told her 22 she quickly shouted, "Beat ya!" She's thirteen. FML

*Today, my boyfriend and I decided to try anal sex. When he was done, I turned around to see him holding a strap-on with a smile on his face and said 'Now, do me'. FML

now that is just.. wow..

I like... this..

You dont know what you do to me...

Life is hard.. its not always easy to keep a positive outlook on things when all your faced with are pebbles and boulders of negativity in your path..

I try...

I've tried..

I'm trying so hard...


to get my life together.. what is my purpose? I see myself being successful and so happy and surrounded by people who support and love me.. but.. how can i get there?

sometimes the hardest thing is the easiest.. and the strongest person externally can be the weakest internally..

Finally..

This is what went down 2 weeks ago.. super late... thanx to Goldberg!

Tupac is Deep..

I randomly bought Tupac's Poem book, The Rose That Grew From Concrete... I always knew Tupac was a complicated and intelligent man but you get to see the depth of his thoughts in his writing.. I'll be posting my favorite poems from time to time... starting with this one.. it speaks to me..


The Eternal Lament
By: Tupac Shakur

From my mind 2 the depths 0f my soul
I yearn 2 achieve all of my goals
And all of my free time will be spent
On the 1's I miss I will lament

I am not a perfectionist
But still I seek perfection
I am not a great romantic
But yet I yearn for affection

Eternally my mind will produce 
ways 2 put my talents 2 use
and when I'm done no matter where I've been
I'll yearn 2 do it all again.


FYI: lament is a song, poem or piece of music expressing grief, regret or mourning..

College Sucks..

I've had a horrible academic week...

I feel like just when I get my shit together.. and have a definite plan to get out of college.. something happens to set me back.. Every semester it gets harder and harder for me to stay focused on the lame ass mandatory classes.. because...

If im not interested.. I check out...

If im not passionate about it.. I dont feel like I should do it..

So many internal conflicts about college..

Freshman year.. mann.. i had straight As.. I was involved in my classes.. basically.. I gave a fuck..

Now.. 3 years later.. I've changed majors 3 times.. which at Baruch costs me about 2-3 semesters... which then leads me to graduate in 5 years instead of 4.. Still an undeclared major...

Its not even the timetable that bothers me.. because.. really... whats out there in the real world for me right now? the economy sucks=no jobs..

The problem is... my heart isn't in it... the bestie Ginnette motivates me everyday (even though i act non chalant about it haha).. Her determination to get to her goal of being in medicine and her sacrifices inspire me so much..

I know im smart... I know I can bust down these last classes and get the fuck out of Baruch.. but i feel so defeated.. and worn out.. mentally & physically...

Maybe this summer I'll get refreshed.. & have tons of motivation...

IM GONNA DO IT!..

BA in Graphic Communications coming soon to a wall near me..

Classic Kanye..

Never before released video for "Two Words".. off Kanye's College Dropout..
The concept is simple, yet verrrrry creative.. I love the old school/movie feel...


Skinny Jeans are winning..

Yo this shit is hilarious.. the homie Jonnie S. of Mad Mic Music made this vid about how dudes wearing skinny jeans can lead to mistaken identities...



Hear more of Jonnie S. HERE.

DISCLAIMER:
I do love a dude in fitted/moderately skinny jeans..
If you know me at all..Then you already know my type..
... Just had to say that... haha

Its My Heart, cookie...

Here's a new artist that I've been obsessing over.. Meet Jade... She's a singer..down with GFC New York.. also home to Mickey Factz and Fki.. Her EP, entitled It's My Heart, Cookie is loaded with infectious lyrics and a unique voice that's sure to reel you in..

"
...It’s safe to say Jade knows what she wants and she appears to be getting it: playing regularly all over the city to an exploding fan base at venues such as BB Kings, SOB’s, the Knitting Factory, Europa, Club Element, and city wide music events such as the Brooklyn Hip Hop festival and Howl festival, as well as having opened for notables Lupe Fiasco and Slick Rick. Along with her many shows, she has just wrapped up her EP entitled, "It's my heart, cookie." with production from J. Carmelli, Precize (GFCNY), and Inglish (The Cool Kids) and features Theophilus London...

'Jade is planted on the frontlines of a musical revolution of the mind, heart, and outer body. She represents a new age of honesty where the truths of our generation are derived from individual experience, not perception. Watch her fly'

1st Saturday at the Bk Museum...

I've never been to First Saturdays before.. and Emily had to go for her class so I decided to tag along.. First of all, I cant believe that an event like this is F R E E... but i dont ask questions lol.. We got there around 7:30 and the place was PACKED.. We couldnt decide where to go first so, Emily and I headed straight to the cafe..

There.. we had some bomb ass mac n cheese.. although it was tad salty (haha)

THE TRUTH!!!!

Hundreds of people get the swine flu and now everyone is wearing face masks. Millions of people have AIDS but no one wears condoms..go figure..SPREAD TRUTH!"

5.01.2009

Is it ME? Nah.. Its really YOU..

I've been single a little over a year now.. & dated 2 dudes seriously during that time and the rest were casual.. With all this alone time, I've learned soo much about myself, what I want and the way dudes think (or don't think)...

Based on my friends' & I's experiences I have a theory (my girls laugh may laugh at me but they KNOW its true):

If you have your shit together, meaning going to college, working, & have goals, etc.. Dudes don't want you NOW, they want you 2-5 years from now.. When they're done running through the rest & want a "wifey/real commitment"... Then if your attractive/sexy, be prepared for the bang out requests..

Ugh! Its so retarded.. And most guys do some variation of that..

Logically there's nothing wrong with that type of thinking given that we're all young & single.. However, girls are emotional creatures.. It takes a strong girl to separate emotions from casual or sexual relationships in order to not get attached... I can do that but eventually, I want to let that guard down & have something real..

I think I'm pretty well rounded.. I go to college, I work, I intern, all while building my unconventional career along the way.. Plus I'm kinda cute, my dimensions are excellent & I have good teeth..

So why wouldn't a dude want to have an intelligent, driven, motivated, cool, sports loving girl by their side? I mean.. could you really ask for anything more?

Ill never understand..
