Why must one person come in and slam every door on the way to their room? Ok ...you mad but the door (well these doors) didn't do it!

Why on the soaps do they call everybody in their phone before they call 911? Or better yet why do they just drive to the hospital? I have ambulance insurance why don't you, you multi-millionaire rich folk?

Why do teachers call you to class to hand you a piece of paper then to say ok see you after the holiday?

Why do other teacher infer that you will know how to do something when you have no knowledge of it because (ahem) you are the student?

Why did one person in particular hear that I had a fish in my dorm room and he went out and bought one and now he tryna find somebody to watch it cuz he wanna go home? You gotta make some sacrifices for the fish. What you gonna do with your kids???

Why I run outta ketchup at the end of the semester? Now I gotta get a whole new bottle.

Why the people I live with so loud...why do I live with people?

I have lots of questions ...I wonder why?

Vinyl Last Night

It's the RocHarder Magazinr Release Party Week so Wednesday was the 1st night I ventured out. Blue Flame (a strip club) was Monday and Via some fancy restaurant was Tuesday so Vinyl was more my speed and my buddy Haze was performing.

It's by Atlantic Station but why is it soo hard to get there. i have been here for almost two years and I am lost everyday. 14th st is closed indefinitely so i really dont be knowing where to go. Anyway lots of u-turns later. Me and Mel finally get there. The RocHarder Artists performances went really good. I have no idea what Ra-Ra was wearing but i'm not the A&R lol. Then this guy who goes by Gangsta Nerd performed. He looked like Lupe and kinda had the same flow, so he won't go anywhere but local (oh well sucks 4 him), but I really thought I was the original Gangster Nerd but i guess I have a partna! Then this guy named Yelawolf performed. WE got free shirts!!!! But he was hot( his music) and looked like Justin Bobby from the Hills (not hot) but he was white and southern and a rapper with a electric violinist, banjo, and a DJ(sooo random I know!!!) His fans really turned out for him. Culture shock set in at this point. They wanted to "mosh" or whatever it's basically pushing and abusing people for fun to the song. He pulled some girls up on stage too and one showed her boobs. It was too much. I listened to his stuff on myspace ya know without the loud speakers and crazy white folk and it's much better (whew).

Then Yung LA performed. Grand Hustle!!! So the plan was for all the staff to hold up our mags so I guess he could see them. I dunno but i do know my arm was getting tired. I'm glad he let his center part go and got him a lil fro-hawk lol. Big Kuntry Kane did a song. Then La came bac did Aint I blah blah. Sooo Mel and I still have mags in our hands and Jesse comes and takes them to hand to LA and Big Kuntry. LOLOLOL I was like this negro dun took my magazine lol but I did have to search around to find Mel another one. I can get one later.

Good Random Night
Let's see what 300 Atlanta has in store for tonight :) LOL

Reading is Essential!!!

This blog could not wait , so I am sitting in class trying to get this out! As a child I was always reminded the "reading is essential" basically that means that without knowing how to read at a basic proficiency of English, you will be lost and confused in the world and everyone will think you are a fool.  So i wonder was I the only one that got this memo!!!

So it's the end of the semester and I have had numerous group presentations, most were ahhh but the one in my Spanish class today was ARGH!!!! Mel and I went 1st and there were no problems because we met twice, hang together all the time, and have a basic command of the English Language.  We talked openly with comprehension about Dia de los Muertos.  Then the mess began.  The next group spoke about Venezuela but they obviously copy and pasted the whole PowerPoint.  That one guy constantly mispronounces words.  Venezuela is really not that hard to say!!! Every group had at least one member that couldn't speak English.  Now I know why the teacher decided to have us speak in English instead of Spanish even though I speak Spanish just as well as English, but that's me :) 

To sum it up , it was terrible  horrible, and too much for a 9am class.  I'm pretty sure by the time you make it to the 5th grade reading aloud shouldn't be a problem anymore.  As I always say "who am i???" 

Let's go back to my hair journey.  I think I'm going to be wearing headbands a lot ( side note: a lot is 2 WORDS, why does no one know this!!!) I'm spending a lot more time moisturizing  so I can keep my ends.  AND my edges that is the goal!!! One day I'll take some pics but it's not now.  

More later considering I'm off today!!! How exciting for me but they don't get anything done.  There's nobody to transcribe their emails and to fill up their mini fridge!!1 Oh Well

Ned 

AHHH!

So I had a terrible nightmare about my presentation today! I dreamt that my teacher kept interrupting me and filling in the information because i was doing a bad job. I ran out of the room crying but came back to try to finish and couldn't keep it together. Then I woke up!

So I got a B+ on the presentation. I don't mind public speaking at all I would have enjoyed it more had it not been 9:25am or if I was speaking about something I cared about deeply. I mean I really do like Radio but how exciting can I make the Radio Act of 1912?

And she decided to give the half of the class that bothered to show up ,extra participation grade pts. Thank Goodness!!! Lord knows I don't participate enough!!! Whoo one weight lifted off.

On to my science class. I got back another test guess what I got a 75 that's the third 75 in a row! It could be worse he dropped that 60 i got on the 1st test. The Final is worth 20% and the lab 20% so with other stuff 60% of my grade is still up in the air And now we doing chemistry which I have always loved. Ionic and Covalent Bonding. Elements, electrons, and protons. OOOOH Valence electrons, Octet rule, and Compounds!!! Let's see how this goes.

DJ NED :)

Swag Surfin'

Well as you may or may not know...I am located in the A or hotlanta as unpopular people like to say. The music right now here is craaazy ahahaha. So or course since I have no CD player i was listenin to ya dirrrty J nicks on hot 1079 and around 9pm when i got in the car they had the best swag music mix goin on OMG it was the bizest!!!

Bust it wide open, bird walk, up thru there, some of the regulars along with about a chick, swag surfin, and anything else souljah boy or nonsense like that!!!

I wish as an intelligent individual that i didnt feel so compelled to start "dougieing" in my car but I can't help it. I love Atlanta!!! One that note:

My new fave show is Real Chance at Love

OMG its a MUST WATCH!!!

the boys on V103 described it best as real looks like a black Jesus and Chance looks like a knock off Ginuwine (LMAO!!! SO TRUE!!!)

its the funniest reality show to date. the girls a mess but its really about Real and Chance. Chance is sooo funny not on purpose. He constantly insults the girls who like him! I can't do it justice by describing it so just watch it!!!

In other other news: Vitamin Water needs to give my thirsty ass a contract!!! Im jus sayin

Dueces DJ NED lol

Bullshit!

So much bullshit from me, from people i kno, and poeple i dont (ahhhh)

So i say imma do something but i don't but its usually in regard to myself not other people but unfortunately others dont act that way.

If you say you gonna do something just do it...i wasnt finna ask you to go buy me China it's really not that hard. It makes me lose trust and respect for you when you cant do something simple.

I don't sell stuff! I work at a label as a intern/assistant. I type. I file. I get drinks. Go to QT for random things. I take messages. I stroke egos. I listen to y'all lil female problems. I tell you what not to wear. I stand on a cooler on top a speaker to put a Nappy Roots poster which I framed up. I do effin everything. I DO NOT SELL ADS, STUDIO TIME, OR ANY OTHER BS Y'ALL GIVE ME. YOU DON'T PAY ME SO NO MEANS NO!!!

To my next door roommate. I can hear you. I think you are not who you wanna pretend like you are. You tried to act like you all clean and high and mighty cuz you talking the LSAT's. Ummm i saw you frying chicken in the kitchen barefoot. That is not cool!!! And as far as the heat i can hear you! don't try to sneak out your room and change the temperature! I hate it!!!

More later!!!

HMMMMM :)

If i had seen this on any other day I would not have cared but today was th day I needed to see this! God works in mysterious ways!!!

The Mayonnaise Jar and 2 Beers When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 Beers. A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was. The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was. The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous 'yes.' The professor then produced two Beers from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed. 'Now,' said the professor as the laughter subsided, 'I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things---your family, your children, your health, your friends and your favorite passions---and if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house and your car. The sand is everything else---the small stuff. 'If you put the sand into the jar first,' he continued, 'there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff you will never have room for the things that are important to you. 'Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.Spend time with your children. Spend time with your parents. Visit with grandparents. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your spouse out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal. Take care of the golf balls first---the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.' One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the Beer represented. The professor smiled and said, 'I'm glad you asked.' The Beer just shows you that no matter how full your life may seem there's always room for a couple of Beers with a friend.' Please share this with someone you care about… I JUST DID!!!

MY HAIR

Well I've been educating myself on natural hair but I have had to resort to looking up mixed race and multiracial hair to find my hair type. I identify as a black person all of the time but when you have a biracial parent and you have the same hair as your black and native American grandmother, African American hair tutorials just don't help. The mulatto diaries on YouTube are the TRUTH! Most African Americans who go natural end up having to do the BIG CHOP but my natural hair and my relaxed hair are blending pretty well thank god so I'm not going that route.

It's been 2 1/2 mo.s since I had a perm and today I straightened my hair for the 1st time in a while because I had braids for the last 3.5 wks. Unfortunately I had to cut off a piece in the front that had somehow decided to lock ARGH. No detangler in the world was getting that aloose so it was real little but Imma just pretend its baby hair LOL for the next month or so. The rest of my hair was all over the place when i washed it. the bottom 6-7 inches on the sides dried straight from all the relaxers while the back was curly and all the new growth (2inches or so) was thick and dark showing that my hair aint really this color(darn!)

I'm looking forward to seeing if the natural hair is going to curl up over the next week or if my immaculate pressing skills will hold up!!! When it was air drying it looked soooo thick but then i pressed it and now its all limp again! UGH!!! I'm also looking forward to experimenting with color more now that I won't be relaxing! who knows what imma do
