So we were over here watching cartoons.
Mikey said something mean to me, so I pinched him---like I always do. He attempts to get me back a couple times, its playful....so i hit him with my iPod cord.
I accidentally hit him in the face though...
He starts pouting, gets quiet and pissed...stays till his cartoons are over--even tho I told him that he should go home early if he is going to pout like that---then he leaves. Just gets up an walks out.
He's gotta walk home. Unless he can find a ride, it'll be about an hour walk.
I apologized. Said I could have given him a lift.....
before I closed and locked my door, I told him to stop getting mad over stupid shit. I wanted to tell him he was too old for that, but I thought thatd be a little too immasculating.
When i deal with children, I gotta deal with their childish problems. I know this, I anticipated it. Thats not a big deal. He's still my best friend, and a good one. Nothing explicitly romantic going on, he buys me cupcakes. Its different, it's nice.
Still, I walk this line between being honest...and too hard on him. Something tells me I should cut him some slack....for his egos' sake, and because it feel like a fair fight. I always say what's on my mind. People can get mad at whatever they want.....but when your friend gets angry, should you risk making it worse by being real? Should I have just kept my mouth shut? I know if I hadnt said anything, everything would be fine by tomorrow---but now I am not so sure. I know if the roles were reversed, I would just laugh this shit off......but it still doesnt seem the same. Cuz im sitting here feeling like someone's nagging mother.

+School Woes I
+I want to know who turns the air conditioning off in August? It doesnt matter if it is noon or night, what the fuck are you thinking?
+I want to know why my roomates friend kept calling me girl last night. I dont care if she was drunk, or that she used to live here. Shut the fuck up.
+I want to know why A&T still hasnt given me my money. Do they know that 5k is a pretty big deal, and would significantly alter my plans--for you know, rent, groceries, a phone that isnt falling apart.
+I want to know why my friends had me driving us around another campus looking for a party. What the fuck, how old are we. Honestly, maybe because I am sumb frustrated right now, but I have no other words to describe that besides---below me.
+I want to know why I have been soo irritable lately. I knew that I would come here and somehow not be able to adapt to being around groups of people again. Even if they are my friends, the group element just gets old. I like being by myself. I dont like people in the back seat of my car telling me how and where to drive. Turn around, no dont turn around. I dont like people in my house telling me my garlic crazy bread smells. What the fuck, its supposed to! Its garlic. I know everything I am saying is soooo petty---but I keep getting sooo angry, and I do not know why. I feel bad, because theyre my friends...but sometimes they make me want to scream at them. I know I have problems with suggestions--and criticism from people im always around. It bothers me, but I gotta stop being so mean about it.
+I want to know why that tequila gave me a 24 hour hangover last weekend.
+I want to know why i didnt have a drop of alcohol last night and i woke up slightly dizzy today.
+I want to know why the only people I can stand to be around for hours and hours at a time are Mikey and my sister. Preferrably either/or.
+I want to know why I sort of miss the dynamic between me and this guy that lives across the street. My ex bestfriend. I wonder if he is still in school.
+I want to meet more people.
+I want to WANT to contribute to this blog. But I cant. It crosses my mind a lot, but im usually too tired or too busy--or cant be bothered. :-/
Being at school presents problems too. I knew everything wouldnt be perfect but at least it is better than being at home. Im okay, just wondering why I have been so unhappy lately. I feel bad, like I have not been nice to be around. I guess I am just a little stressed--probably by the money issue.
I am really planning on doing better this year. Im sad that it is my last year and I feel like I havent---really satisfied my thirst for academia. Honestly, a business major is soo busy with major requirements that there is no time to really take exciting courses. Like Hiphop Discourse, or Human Sexuality, or Advertising Design, or Ceramics, or Eastern Religion, Philosophy, Genocice in the Modern World, blah blah blah.
I have been doing all my homework...and making it to all my classes--good job. Im trying to get more involved--by joining Couture. Im too clumsy to be a model, but I can tryout for stylist. I have to put together an outfit for someone else and bring them in. Im not reeeaally worried about that, I just wish I could put together an outfit for my self. Much easier...and cost friendly. Im also trying to join the American Marketing Association. Interest meeting next week, Couture first look interview next week--we'll see what happens.

++Finally at AandT
What's been going on???
Well in the last two weeks I packed up, moved to the boro, started school, blah and blah and blah. Thats why I havent been around. The first week of school is over---not quite done with the second hangover of the year though. Im still in bed, dizzy like shit. So I thought i'd post
I had a lot of art from highschool hiding in my closet. I didnt really know what to do with it. I was sad because I had to throw a lot of it away---thats always hard even if it is outdated crap. I def brought some shit though.
At the apartment, im still at a loss for space. I have a black bag full of clothes in my trunk because there's no room for it in the room. Ridiculous, I had no clue I had so many clothes.

True Blood Delivers.....
Finally..
after many episodes, True Blood finally satisfies me like it used to. Last week was wack, it built up this huge battle scene--then ending with a whole lot of talking--and a bomb you dont even really see? Boo. This week though, it was deep. It was touching, it was uncomfortable.
Im pretty tired of pussy emo vampires. Bill and his self hatred makes me sick. It is boring and annoying. But Godric, I finally understand. I mean, he's been on Earth for over 2000 yrs, nigga is tired. What he said to Sookie at the end was so soft, but in a beautiful way. The conversation was about God...not religion so much, and Sookie didnt show her ass. She is a caring person....i guess. I mean, she is usually completely and childishly enveloped in her love for Bill. Last week's girl fight didnt show her strength, or courage---it made her look weak and childish to me. But this week, she was a little more mature. Maybe next season she'll be a lil likeable...?
Wow, the Maryann plotline is finally getting interesting. Like...foreal. I loved watching Eggs getting his ass kicked!!
Eric has been really different lately. I mean last week he was all flirty and smiley with Sookie. It was annoying. Id still like for him to be dark and brooding---even though he has a crush. But he was extra smooth this week getting Sookie to suck his blood. I loved seeing Eric's evil trickster smile---not the googly-oh its sookie one. Then the dream....wow, he was gross. During that boring pillow talk, I kept thinking about him tearing that rednecks arm off. Mmmm, so much cooler.
However, the scene with him and Godric, amazing. He cried, like a bitch. And it wasnt soft, it was really sad. Its called acting, and some other members of the cast should take notes.

+Brave New World: The Movie
++It has been officially announced that Ridley Scott will develop Aldous Huxley's amazing futuristic novel, Brave New World, into a movie.
Scott will be the producer and also hopes to direct. Leonardo DiCaprio will also produce...maybe even be the star. Holey Shit!!!
+Plot desciption: Aldous Huxley’s tour de force, Brave New World is a darkly satiric vision of a “utopian” future—where humans are genetically bred and pharmaceutically anesthetized to passively serve a ruling order. A powerful work of speculative fiction that has enthralled and terrified readers for generations, it remains remarkably relevant to this day as both a warning to be heeded as we head into tomorrow and as thought-provoking, satisfying entertainment. When the novel Brave New World first appeared in 1932, its shocking analysis of a scientific dictatorship seemed a projection into the remote future. Here, in one of the most important and fascinating books of his career, Aldous Huxley uses his tremendous knowledge of human relations to compare the modern-day world with his prophetic fantasy. He scrutinizes threats to humanity, such as overpopulation, propaganda, and chemical persuasion, and explains why we have found it virtually impossible to avoid them. Brave New World Revisited is a trenchant plea that humankind should educate itself for freedom before it is too late.

+Good Hair
Looks interesting.
This was posted on my favorite blog Jezebel and some of the comments really disturbed me. One person kind of condemned every black person with straight hair. Whenever a topic like this gets some serious exposure, people like to divide the issue into black and white. Natural vs relaxed. Like the entire black community is plagued with self hatred and women with relaxed hair have an insurmountable burden upon their backs. Well---like I have stated so many times before, I go to an HBCU with some talented, educated, and amazing black students. And I have to say, many of my peers have completely moved beyond the "good hair" issue. The guys that wear locs dont do it to make a statement, they just like them. Not all women with straight hair struggle with it--well at least I dont. Of course there are a lot of people that do struggle, but the issue IS NOT black and white. Women with natural hair do not embrace their roots any more than I do. When my hair was natural, it was never a political statement, it as an aesthetic one.

+Ghost has it all wrong
Men and women are not equal?
Well thats what Ghostface Killah was talking about in the interview.
Do you agree with this?
Do you think that the double standard is the way it should be? Men are allowed too fuck around while women should not?
I do NOT agree. A woman's body, to me, is no more of a temple than a man's. I am not about to be fucking around but I do not judge anyone that does---as long as they dont step on my toes.
