A Little Snippet of the Beast

This week has started off tough. Haven't got much sleep. Had two papers and a big exam due all on the same day. But even though its only Tuesday, the difficult part of my week is complete. Now to just run a successful event on Thursday and I shall be ready for the weekend. Even with all this going on, I'm still feeling pretty beasty!

Yea, I think the pic fits well with my beasty mentality lol!

And as the motto flows..

Change or Growth

The past couple of days i have been having some talks about change. People have been telling me about how, as they grow older and learn more things, they are seeming to grow apart from people they grew up with. I could not really offer sufficient advice since I can not fully relate to this; because the people in which I hold close are also as driven as me so our growth is happening at the same time. In this video, Jay Z makes an extremely valid point. "People look at you strange, you've changed, like you've worked that hard to stay the same." Change is part of life, and whether we like it or not, we may grow apart from certain people. If the bond is strong enough, the relationship will still remain.

To quote Joe Budden - "I didn't change, I grew some. And if I did change, then I welcome it to come."

November 6th

Its official!!!!! The dream that I mentioned a few blogs ago is finally coming true. November 6th is the day. I cannot give too much information right now, but just know that all this hard work that I have been putting in is paying off. If ever needed some reassurance that hard work pays off, the text I received today was it. To quote Wale "they some workers, we some workaholics".



so as the story goes, the motto still flows


no days off....

Gone til Novemeber

For those of you who do not know, I am in somewhat of a long distance relationship. My girlfriend goes to school up North, but is from LA. Before this summer, we really did not get too see each other as often as we would have liked to. This summer though, we got spoiled. We pretty much got see each other anytime one of us would call, and it felt good to be so close, so often. We built memories and grew together this summer. From disagreements to laughing extremely hard at things that probably were not even that funny. From Erykah Badu, Lupe Fiasco and Janelle Monae Concerts to movie nights. This summer was great.

Even though we spent so much time together, it was not until September 19th at 3 am, while sitting on the front steps of her house that the connection that both of us had been looking for was made. Every moment that we have spent together can be summed up by that night. We talked about everything and came to some realizations about our relationship and about us as individuals. In short, it was one of the greatest talks that I have had so far(and I've had some pretty deep talks). 

I use to think that I would stay single forever, by choice of course. But I realize now that finding someone that you care about so much is a much better feeling than being single. It's almost been ten months now and I look forward to many more. Deonna, I love you cuh!

She's has gone back to school now and won't be back until Thanksgiving. The next time I see her, it will be our first year of being together. Until then I will continue to text every time I feel the urge to. And I will continue to think of her every time the sun shines and when the moon glows. And on rainy days I will remember the foggy night in which we made that special connection on the steps.

Even in love, the motto still flows.....

No days off......

A Work In Progress

There is a thin line between brilliance and insanity. The problem with this statement is with the person who is tip toeing that thin line, how does one know which side of the line he or she falls on. I will either be remembered in the lives of others for being a great intellectual or I will be remember as the guy who went crazy. Let's hope for the first!

I have come to the conclusion that my mind works a little, okay a lot, different than most people. I tend to try and find some underlying meaning in everything instead of just taking things as is. This is both a positive and a negative for me. Take something as simple as a missed call: if I find myself in a situation where I need to call up one of my friends, I always expect them to answer the phone or call me back immediately. And when this does not happen I begin this whole unnecessary process and somehow turning that simple missed call into them not caring; instead of just taking it as what it is, a simple missed call. The funny thing is that this only occurs with the people that are closest to me. Maybe this is because I sometimes expect unrealistic things from people, like answering the phone every single time I call. That makes no sense at all, who sits around all day waiting for calls to come in from me? Hell, I wouldn't even wait for me call all day. 

With this being said, I know there are somethings I must work on, and I do indeed plan on changing these things.

To the team, I love you all and I KNOW the feeling is mutual!

I'll end this one no different from the first...

no days off!!!

Chances of a lifetime

If you had the opportunity to make one of your biggest dreams come true, isn't it obvious that you should take it. What if the decision was not that easy?

I have the opportunity to accomplish one of my goals in life right in the palms of my hands, but I am not sure if I will be able to fully give it my all like I would want to. It seems like so many doors are opening for me at the same time and I will have to choose which ones I walk through and which ones I let close. The funny thing is that all of these opportunities are all a priority. Some are obvious ones to walk through, but the difficult thing is which to leave alone?

I never realized that so much stress could come from good things. I'm just confused about what I should do.  I work so hard to get doors to open and I'm rewarded by being able to choose which doors to take, I guess I will just have to break down every opportunity and see which one will be best for me (and the team/ family) in the long run.

Either way it goes, the motto still flows

No days off!

Family Time

This weekend was just what the doctor ordered, time with the family. It had been a while since my entire, well most, of my family had been together, so this was long overdue. It was my grandfather's birthday weekend, so we decided together and go bowling. This turned out to be a really good idea. It was also the perfect opportunity to introduce my girlfriend to my entire family (big step right? I know lol). Here are just a couple of pics from the day.

No days off!

The Come Back

Lately, I've really been finding out the meaning of "no days off". Ever since school has been back in session, I really haven't had time for anything (including blogging). A couple of people have hit me up and let me know I've been slacking, well you guys are right. So I'm back on it. The blog will again become part of my weekly grind. Word!

But let me feel you in on my life as of late. The first week of school was hectic. Junior year of college really started with a bang. I felt ready, but in reality I had not switched back into school mode. My sleeping patterns were off, so I could not fall asleep for the life of me. So no sleep made the week feel much longer than 7 days. It feels as if the weight of the universe was on my shoulders and I began to feel overwhelmed.  Until I went to church and realized that this is what I signed up for. I have worked hard so that all these opportunities can open up for me. Since everything is happening at one time, I have no choice but to accept it. So as the message in church went last week, I can't complain! So I won't complain. I'm going to grind it out.

The second week of school was not bad at all, with this new attitude of mine I feel as if i have no choice but to go hard. Back to the basics!!

Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding - Proverbs 3:13 (my favorite Bible verse)


you know the motto,


NO DAYS OFF!!!
