| Basically... that's the story I went to visit my homegirl because I ain't seen her in a while and some of her homegirls were goin to her room while I was walkin out and the room was on the way. I poked my head, in the door, said wassup, you know the drill. While i was in there, however, chick manages to pull my shirt up just enough to see my abs, and she was more like "or lack there of... you need to handle that"... in reference to the love handles. My only response was "But it's been a rough semester..." she was like "It ain't been that rough, boo.... Well, maybe it has but it ain't rough no more so you can work on that." I agreed and then contemplated... and then proceeded with my day Good news is that i'll be home december 21st | | |
| i leave in 7 days, or monday, august 14th. And like most ppl, i've learned something over the summer. But i'm not gonna write all about it on xanga, cuz that would mean i didn't remember what i learned last summer (don't put drama on xanga).
Spiritual thought: The most recent trend that the business people of duncanville have gotten on is Tahitian Noni, Incorporated," or, Noni Juice. With TNI, you basically make as much money as you want as long as you get ppl to sign up and tell more people about it. It's an all-to familiar marketing ploy, borrowed from JESUS. It's the same technique: tell people about this product you have, (Salvation or juice) and then once they recieve it/buy it, you tell them to tell more people about it, so eventually the whole world has juice, I mean Jesus. So my question is, why isn't everyone selling Jesus, but is quick to sell juice? My new job title is gonna be "financial evangelist" I'm gonna tell people how to free themselves of the financial labyrinthe, and free their souls from the bondage of hell. Then i'll be rich in all senses of the word | | |
| Man i just read my last entry, and i was on some trippin stuff when i posted that...
Well this time i'm better, and because of some events and some people inspiring me, I have a new philosophy in life. No, I still do big things, and I will continue to do big things, but sometimes doin big things can't really explain what i'm really trying to do.
I have found myself hooked to Common's CD, and his first track still gets me. The bassline stays in my head, and i'm just feeling the way that mug was put together. And i was thinkin about all the stuff goin down in my life, and that bassline was buzzing through my head, it came to me; I just want to "BE". Simple as that, I just wanna be. I still do big things, but i just wanna be.
I came to this enlightening revelation because I couldn't figure out what was going wrong between me and some of my friends. Granted, it has been a long semester, and me and this person have gone through alot already, and i think we were caught up in trying not to "be" (in a relationship), but i found more peace when i would just "Be". And I mean "be" on an individual level; i can't try to fix outside stuff without my insides right first. So I'm gonna be....
Spiritual Thought: In addition to just trying to "be" I found that puts me in a state of submission. It takes me out of the situation, and puts it in God's Hands. I feel releived when i'm "be"ing because i know it's all good, and i don't have to try to fix it myself, I'll let God handle and I'll just "be". So while yall are busy worrying and stuff, it may be school, it may be family related, it may be socially, I'm gonna sit back and "be" and put it all in God's hands. | | |
| Most recently, I've been busy traveling with basketball. My relationship with basketball has changed since last year, when the only thing it did was give me 2 100's every six weeks, and early release @ the end of the year. This year, it pays me (well sometimes), and takes me places i've never been, and it puts me down with the people I need to know, and gives me the jobs i need to have. So that brings me to last week. I traveled with the varsity team to Nebraska and Michigan where they played Crieghton and UMichigan. Creighton was a heck of a game, where we got ran off the court by the fans, even tho we one by won... i mean won by one. Then we went to michigan. We lost, but it was a good experience. Their fans are very intelligent, as in they had a whole mini-paper about us for this game....
This weekend i went to gainesville, and we played in a tournament. I hurt my knee in the first game, sat out the second game, and then talked to the trainer @ their Rec center. Because it was just jumper's knee, i resumed playing the next day. We lost in the semi's, and that was my first loss with this team ever... and it pissed me off to high heaven. I don't like losing, and if i ever play another team wearing green they will get punished personally by me, and i will not wanna stop for mercy rules...
In other news, I've concluded that it's best that i remain oblivious sometimes. Mostly, I go with the "don't ask don't tell" policy, but i decided to ask one day, and it got me no-where so i'm gonna stop asking.
Similarly, I was asked one day which i prefer, "Absence makes the heart grow fonder/stronger" OR "Out of sight, out of mind." I chose choice B cuz it's alot easier.
I've also realized that if i'm single much longer... i'll be single much longer... I will have been single a year come april 21st, and why i know the date is a problem in itself. I mean the solution is simple, either settle down or not, and it's not the settling down that i have a problem with, it's the word "girlfriend" that i don't like. I really don't want a gf, or a girl, or a gal. I mean, "she don't even have to have a big ol' ass; just somethin round, proportontionate to her body, you know, a nice lil' tail," ("God" by Outkast, The Love Below/Speakerboxxx).
What was i just saying, i love being single! | | |
| i made $60.00. When i was up there gettin bid on, i felt like a piece of meat. They had me doin some really degrading things... like standing behind this sheet in nothin but a towel, and boxer-briefs. and then I was drenched in baby oil and baby oil "gel" or somethin...
On my way, tho, tonight is saturday, and i'm gonna do big things... | | |
