Some of you will know what this post is about ( and it ain't all about the title).Recently I was giving the blow off.... not a particularly interesting thing to say the least because as one of my good friends told me " I wasn't vested" and the truth of the matter was that I wasn't.
So the question becomes how can you be blown off by someone that you weren't all that into in the first place????
Now as I marinate on that one.... I realized the truth of why I was so upset in the first place. The reason I was fired up was because He Lied!!!!!!!!
Now those of you who know me know that is my pet peeve..... do not and I repeat do not lie to me in a serious conversation now matter how big or small because that shittt is not funny, cute, nor does it make you the bigger person. (Vent Over)
But yeah He lied and did so as a reassurance.... like that lie made things alright.... absolved him of any guilt and set us both free..... Very funny.
So I stopped being angry... because I realized that like I predicated before anything began..... nothing was going to come of things because he was too closed to allow anyone into his world. So again that is me stressing over nothing.....
After some very insightful conversations with two of my best friends (you know who you are) I have simmered down and am completely in my understanding zone and ready to call up my favorite ex..... hehehehehe..... he is always up for a phone call .... when we are talking.
So the school year has started and I haven't done bad so far..... But I would really like to make this semester a much better one than the last semester was.... I have vowed to be more on top of things and not let them catch me off guard.... if that is possible.
So I got chewed out tonight..... because I was being robbed of my help by someone else..... But hey I am not a hater just didn't appreciate the slight... So I will step out of this corner or little shell that I have placed myself in. In order to get more effective feedback into my education.
Enough venting for tonight... I am going to get some sleep.... ENJOY the MLK weekend....
Peace

What the Hell were They Thinking When They Made Our Schedule!!!!!!
What the hell was the administration thinking when they created our schedule this semester. On Monday we are in class from 8:00 till 5:00 with an hour for lunch and some of our teachers don't respect that. What were they really thinking!!!!!
Once in high school I had a teacher who was telling me about college and Grad school and I was told that I need to get prepared for classes that last 2-3 hours with few breaks in between. I actually had classes like this in Undergrad, but I can't understand how anyone can expect you to go an entire day, learning information, but really you stopped paying attention after lunch but your body switched over into the postprandial state and is trying to digest that McDonald's hamburger that you had to run out to get in the 30 mins that you have between classes that is supposed to be lunch.
Ok, so I am done venting about the horrible day that I had yesterday with the marathon teaching sessions that my teachers tried to have. I have turned over some new leafs for this semester. Now don't get me wrong. I don't believe in New Years resolutions because when you resolve to do anything at the beginning of the years that odds that you will accomplish these things are slim to none... and they tend to stay on your list for several years before you actually make the effort to do something about them.
I decided to do something about a number of things that I have been actively working on. Here is a brief list and most of the things on this list are things that I feel everyone needs to focus on:
1. Finances = I feel that everyone in their 20's need to start thinking about finances. We are only getting older and now is the perfect time to mess somethings up but then we have plenty of time to fix it.
2. Health = Now I am really bad about this one. I am about to become a physician and I put off going to the doctor myself ( usually because I think I already know whats wrong with me, or I don't have the time, refer to the first paragraph).
3. Positive Thinking = Last semester I spent a lot of time thinking negatively and negative thoughts only lead to negative outcomes.
4. Prayer = I am a practicing Christian and I realized that I need to spend a lot more time in prayer, speaking to God and seeking direction. Now if your not that is ok..... but spend time in quiet reflection, We as young professionals spend so much time rushing around with different things that we forget to take the time to reflect on our choices and their effects on future outcomes, or just remembering the Good things that occurred during the day ( we always find time to dwell on the negative things)
5.Control of my personal life and situation = Nothing or no one can make me do anything that I don't want to do ( except someone with a gun and then only for so long). I have allowed things that occur and comments from people to derail my personal progress. I need to relearn how to stand alone before I can stand with anyone else.
There that wasn't so bad.... these are all things that I feel are constants things that no matter what the year we all need to be looking at doing for personal growth.
So over the next couple of months enjoy yourself, and watch your money.... ( make it growth)
Ohhh.... Pray that I can make it through these longs Mondays..... ( I might have to start skipping classes..... craziness.)
