Life is really great sometimes

I graduated college!

I got a new job!

I moved!

I made new friends!

I really honestly believe the last year wasn't as great just so I could be set up to have such great things happen to me now. School was a drag. I took a lot of classes that I felt were pointless. I'm excited to start law school and do something of interest to me. I'm not going to be naive and say that I'm never going to do something I don't want to do ever agin, because that is not life. I really think that most everything I do these days is because I want to.

I really care about others and I let it affect me, even strangers. I'm glad I moved out of that house of aint-shit people. I cannot stand to watch people don nothing with their lives. I can't imagine doing nothing all day. Even if I don't leave the house, trust me, I'm doing something from home. I'm being productive. Facebooking is not productive.

I have 2 months until school starts and I think I should have a great summer.

Over It!

I used to be obsessed with my natural hair. Now that's it's about to be 2 years, I could care less. I'm tired of protecting it. I don't want to be gentle. I want to color it. I want to cut it, curl it, straighten it. Fuck it. I'm doing whatever I want to it. I cannot keep up to unrealistic standard in the natural hair community. I want to wear my hair straight as much as I wear it curly. I flat iron when it's damp. (SHOCKER!) I never wear my bonnet, I let my boo get entirely too rough with my delicate strands. I don't care. It's versatile. It's cool. It's no longer an obsession.

Ummm yeah

That is Wallpaper covering the air conditioner at my mama's house!!!!

She still has a wall unit SMH!

She also has a converter box on a 13 inch TV in the Dining Room.

She uses chair covers so she can store stuff under most of the chairs.

Most of the lights in the ceiling fans do not work.

Y'all live in houses like this too. Don't play.

I know better but...

So I have had two run-ins with hood (urban) black males in Atlanta. I usually don't even bother but I know a lot of guys that act like they are standing on the block all day or hustling in the streets but in reality they went to college, have jobs, take care of their parents and siblings, and would rather play Xbox than think about taking an illegal substance.

These men are rare. They will scare you with their hood-like activities. They drive drunk. They hang with real OG's and they will cuss until the ends of the Earth. The two I have encounter have both been sweeties but after a while I realize it's not my thing. I cannot listen to Gucci and Boosie. I don't know if you are quoting lines from a song by them or disrespecting me. They always have a million people hitting them up. They are usually the only person in their circle who is reliable. They still find time to hit you up all the time. They seemingly never have to work. They are enigmas.

Sometimes I can hang with a hood man for a minute but then when it comes to intimate encounters is usually when I am running for the door. Worst kissers ever. Activities tend to be short-lived and rough. Well rough to me. If you like rough then this is for you! I think that I usually feel so disconnected from them because to them and in their crew it's about how many women you are with, it's not about the specific girl. They take no time to figure out what you like. It's like a checklist of things they heard you should do. I would like to sneak this in that I saw the most beautiful penis I ever saw in my life yesterday, the sad thing is I knew he had no idea what to do with it. He is the first man I've ever seen pull out a magnum who actually needed it.

I'll be dating better in 2011.
