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..

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...
