THINGS I'M GETTING OFF MY CHEST & OTHER THINGS...

hey people wassup, i see i have posted nothing in a while, almost 3 weeks but anyways i'm back at school now, chillin in my new apartment, lol, well my trailer, listening to jim crow "holla at a playa" (lol that song is so dumb, but its just funny to me i dont know why, but i really don't like their group name), but my place is nice, but there was alot crap that happened when i first cam down here last saturday on august 11th.......

well first off when i came down a day before my cousin that was on saturday night, we got down to Carbondale from Chicago at like 7:30pm, ok where get here, the sun went down and all, but its still light out, there was NO water or lights in the place im like what the hell, so i call my cousin on my cell phone, she calling around to try and see what happened, but the people that own the trailer park couldnt turn that on, and they was closed, and the electric company and water company was closed, so me, my mama and step father ended up staying at the Best Inn for the night, which was pretty nice, but i've never been to a motel before so i always thought they were dirty, lol i dont know why, but you know how like they show on tv programs, but anyways, we left there before 12pm, around 11 or 11:30am sunday, and my mama took me shopping at wal-mart for some stuff for our place, since my cousin's b/f left his keys down here with his friend cuz he was up in Chicago too, we went to his place, so my mama and step father waited with me there until about 1:30pm, so i went to see how far it would be fore me to walk to campus, well to the student center it took about 20 minutes, so some of my classes are like 5-10 minutes from there, so then my mama got to Chicago before my cousin even got down to here and when i called her, my cousin, she said that she been left out and was on the road, lol she musta lied, cuz she got down to Carbondale at like 9pm, and my mama got to Chicago at like 7:30, its the same time lenght, its only like a 5 and a half hour drive, but anyways, her and her boyfriend got in at like 9 om, and it was so boring there cuz he had no cable and we was watching the same movies over, and i was by my self there from like 1:30-9pm, so i was really bored......

so ok then we stay there until like tuesday cuz i got up that morning to check if the lights FINALLY came on, cuz i had to get them on in my name cuz the light company was on some bull shit with my cousin's account, and we got the water and phone on monday, so all we was worrying about was cable, so we was just buying lil things we needed, we been in here for about a week now, since last tuesday, so its still a lil junky, but way better then it was, i just need s lil stand or cabinate to put my lil knick knacks at and we need a vacuum cleaner for the carpet, but other then that, everything is cool now........

i started class yesterday, i with to my first class it was Ethics it was ok, it seemed like it was gonna be interesting, but i dont like the fact that we only have 4 papers and no test, i rather take the test then have all of those papers, and they have to be 6-8 page papers, ugh, now don't get my wrong i like to write, but only creaive writing or informal writing, i hate research papers and analyzing books and stuff, but anyways, i missed my Psychology class that was later on that day, cuz i didnt feel good, but i'ma go tomorrow, cuz i need to start this year off right, cuz i dont wanna make the mistakes i made the last 2 years, but i went to class today, i had a Black American Studies class which seems like it will be really interesting, cuz its just dealing with black culture in the U.S, so i think that i will really enjoy this class this year, also, i had a 20th century history clas thats a retake cuz i got a D in it my 1st year, but since i do have the credit hours for that class i think ima drop it and either take the creative writing class that i wanted or retake the english class i got a D in this last semester cuz i needed to at least get a C but i dont know yet, i'll figure it out by tomorrow.......

but walking to class today i almost fell out, but today it took me a while well i walk fast and i still got to class in 20 minutes, instead of the 30 minutes that i thought it would takei thought i was gonna have a heart attack, i should've been ready earlier so i didnt have to rush, and since i walk fast anyways i couldnt help it, and on the way back to my place i was walking fast i was thinking OMG i was about to pass out, so i needed to slow it down, plus it was hot out, about 90 degrees, but when i got in i had to turn up the air and drink alot of water then i passed out on the bed, well i flopped, not passed out, but i had to lay down for a few, about 20 minutes, then i got my water.........

oh yea something funny happened yesterday, well its funny now, it wasnt yesterday, but i was walking from class yesterday i went to walk down the street where i can get to my place quicker then the long way, why the hell did 2 dogs that just popped up outta no where was across the street, no owner in site, they ran across the street to where i was, i was scared as hell, cuz im really scarted of dogs and spiders, but they following me and im so nervous, but i try not to be cuz dogs sense fear they say, but i couldnt help it i was about to pass out cuz i was so nervous and i was starting to hyperventilate, so i walk across the street, one of the dogs followed me over to there i was getting scared, cars coming and shit, im walking in the middle of the street and people acting like they wanna run me over, so i walk back across the street to where i was at first, and i was praying to God that that dog stayed over there and it did, cuz i was really scared, and i was about to cry, but i didnt cuz i dont like people to see me cry, so i didnt, but i was really terrified, but now it seems funny, but before it wasn't, but thats all thats been going on so ima go now, hopefully i'll have something more interesting to write about cuz this doesnt seem like much, lol, but anyways peace people and God bless.....
