What's going on????
ok...look at the post below if you're from chicago or that area, well even if you're not........also WTF is wrong with blogger? people's blogs are disappearing and stuff....hopefully i'm not next....ok...i got home to Chicago on Thursday...my mama's b-day was Saturday....Sunday we didnt go to church....so me and her friend and her went to Bally's to go work out...after leaving Bally's i was hungry, so we stopped at Wendy's to get me, my brother, and stop father something to eat....then we stopped at the curency exchange to get quaters to wash clothes...iw as supposed to stay out witht hem because my mama was going to take her God daughter's older sister shopping...so they had to go back into the city on the westside...my mama lives in hillside...well ok...since there wasnt going to be any room in the car because my God sister's boyfriend and his lil son was going to be int he car, i decided to get out...i went up stairs to give my bro and step dad their food...about 15-20 min later we got a call, and my step father gave me the phone, because he doesnt speak english too well....
...on the phone was my mama's friend calling from my mama's cell phone, she was crying...all that i could make out as to what she was saying was "your mama, the car is on fire"...i was like WHAT? i instantly started to freak out....i asked her to repeat her self, and she said the car caught fire....so i instantly thought she meant my mama was still in the car when it caught fire and burnt up with it, especially since she was calling us from my mama's cell phone and not my mama....i felt so sick..i thought i lost my mother....i kind of froze up....then i kept asking her again, then she said theyg ot out...so i felt a lil better, but id idnt because i was thinkin that she was saying they both were in the car and it went up in flames and they got burned, because my mama's friend was crying so hard...so i kept asking questions, and i was telling ym step father and brother to let's go to where they are at....
...so she told us that they got out ok and that the car just went up in flames...so ok, they're ok, but i sure did freak out...i need to learn to remain calm...so they said they got off the E-Way at Central....we got there and they were there....a fire truck was leaving...there was a police car and 2 officers...my mama and her friend were standing....and there was the car...burt up...nothing in the inside.....i was like OMG...all i could do was thank God...i just walked back and forward, shouted Hallelujah....and i just kept saying thank you God, Thank you Jesus...my brother told me to calm down again...but i was, i wasnt upset anymore, i was just thanking God that my mama and her friend were ok....the whole inside of the car was gone....i just couldnt believe it....
...so they told us what happened....my mama's friend was sitting on the passenger side...and as they were getting off of Central, her friend said "the car is smoking"...she said that there was smoking coming from under her seat....neither one of them smoke...so it was like dang...it must have been electrical.....so my mama said that she stopped and parked the car immediately....she said that maybe a few minutes before it sounded like the car double locked...so when my mama was getting out, her friend tried to get out the car, but couldnt...she told my mama her door was stuck....when she told me that, that sounded like some "Final Destination" type shit.....so my mama told her to come out the drivers side...my mama said that when the got out, she hurried back to turn off the car and get her keys out, and grab her purse...she said as soon as she close the door, the car went up in flames...they ran across the street...they were under a viaduct... because it was right off the express way, and they ran across the street...and the car had a mini explosion....my mama said that they were both crying so hard, especially her, so thats the reason her friend called instead...i couldn't believe it...i took some pics of it, though they didnt come out so clear....
I just thank God for keeping my mama safe..because i was thinking in my head "OMG her birthday was just yesterday and now she's dead!"...thats what i thought when her friend first called...THANK YOU JESUS for them getting out ok...and her friend couldnt get out the passenger seat...my mama said all the doors locked up except for the drivers side....that is so weird....man....and that was just in like one minute that all of that happened....if they took any longer....God had his hand in that....then i started to think "Well what if i stayed int he car with them?" ...knowing me, always being nervous, i probably wouldve freaked out....and might've slowed them down, or been the last one to get out as the car was going up on flames, ohhhhh *shudders*...Thank you Jesus! i don't need to think like that...but my mama said it wasnt meant for me to be in there...and i was sitting right behind the passenger's seat.....Lord Jesus...but thank God that they're ok...
...ok with all of that excitement....my aunt, my mama's youngest sister, she's 9 years older than me, and her son, who's 16 (she had him at 16, she's 33 now), got into a fight...YES a fight! WTF??? a mother and son fighting!! when i say fight, i mean they were fighting like first fighting....my aunt said that her whole living room was messed up...stuff broken...i was like WTF? not my Patrick! (my lil cousin's)....after my mama got off the phone with her, she told me what happened......ok...the other day my aunt went out to party or something i guess....and her son asked "where you at Bitch?" so she was like "Excuse me?" and he said it again....so she called the house, because i guess she wasnt in, and asked him why he was still int eh house, because he had to go to school...he said "i am going to school bitch!"...ok WTF??? i was like ok...how dare you cuss out your mama!.....so when she got home...she was waiting on him to come in...when he came in, she asked him what did he say on the phone....and he was like "yes i called you a bitch, you whore, you out everynight partying"...ok WTF?
so my aunt went to whoop his ass, but he hit her back, and they started fighting, like for real....and then he kicked the front door in or something...and her daughter, my other lil cousin thats 13, told her "mom please stop, dont hurt him"...so she stopped and he ran out the house...she called the cops on him...i think they said something about they cant keep him because he's a minor, or something...but she told them not to bring him back to her house when they find them, because she'll kill him....so it was like RIGHT aftert hat happened when she called my mama.....i just couldnt believe that! not my Patrick! my mama couldn't believe that!....and she sometimes treated patrick like that was her favorite too, he's her older, she had a 15 yr old son, and a 13 going on 14 yr old daughter...patrick will be 17 in July....i just couldnt believe that at all....and i told my mama that that was nothing but pent up anger....and my mama was like "See i tell people you have to be careful about how you live your life in front of you kids"....
...see my aunt use to party alot...she had him young, at 16....and got 2 other kids but different fathers....even tho she wasnt the best mother when they were growing up, abnd cared more about material things (she use to buy them alot of name bran stuff, Jordans, Guess, Sean John, whatever else...) that we thought she shouldnt have bought since they're gonna grow out of it anyways and it was a waste of money.....she didnt have a father figure...she had a boyfriend when they were younger...but she turned to a homosexual lifestyle, so she had a girlfriend for the last, i think 9 years...she came out when i was in 8th grade....but they just broke up...so i guess she has women coming ina nd out of her house....and her son see's this...i remember one time i called and asked them where she was at...he was like she was out partying....she cleaned up her act a little bit, and become more of a house mom...but she still had the occassional party here and there...i dont think she partied everyweek....but to her kids, it mightve been...so he was probably mad at that...and she wasnt in the house this past weekend...and he blew his lid...that doesnt give him no right to...but he did....but he's wrong for that! no matter what, you NEVER disrespect your mother like that...i told my friend about that yesterday and was like "my mama wouldve killed me"...he was like "That's because you respect your mother, obviously your lil cousin doesnt respect his"...it's so sad...so now he's out in the street...i think he went to my other cousin's girlfriend house...my mama said she talked ot her today....he came by and asked his mom if he could get his jacket, and she told him no....i can't believe it thought...that's where you cross the line...he alreadyed crossed it at cursing at her....then he fought her? SMH! i am SO diappointed in him....so sad...he's only 16...his mama kicked him out, now he has to grow up for real....she said she doesnt want to have nothing to do to him...i know she wasnt expecting that, and were weren't either....cars blowing up, and children fighting their mothers...WTF is going on????

You hum to tune to "bang bang bang skeet skeet skeet"

IF YOU THOUGHT R.KELLY AND CRUCIAL CONFLICT SHOULD HAVE MADE A VIDEO FOR GHETTO QUEEN (i remember this song, and NO they shouldn't have done a video, lol...)

ok i added to this list as you can see....lol...all ya'll chicago folks what ya'll think? if you not from Chicago, you probably think this is silly....
i got one for ya...and only the Westside folks might remember this....Remember Buddy Bears?!? there use to be on over on Cicero (my old neighborhood out west, Lamon, and Maypole!)....i think it was by Cicero and Lake...i think the side street it was on was probably West End...i'm not sure.... lol, also, people form Chicago also gotta say the intersection of a street to describe where they're from, when people from other cities will give you their adress...i had someone not from Chicago at my church down here at school ask me why people from Chicago do that...heck i dont know...we just do! ALSO if you use to listen to 107.5 WGCI you remember that "It's all about the Bad Boyz" song that had alot of those Chicago Rappers on it (Common, Twista, Do or Die, Crucial Conflict, and some other folks), that song used the "It's all about the Bejamin's" beat....LOL....
More drama...
...maybe i'm creating it my self...i dont know...maybe i'm over reacting, or being too needy for friendship....heck who knows....the final is over...it went well...hopefull i'll pull a B if not an S off in that class...i'm sitting here now trying to pull together 40-50 more pages of my final play thats due at 4pm today...it's 10:50am now...i have 22 pages already...which i've had for 2 weeks...why am i such a procrastinator??? but it seems i write better and the ideas flow better under pressure...i have a 6-8 page paper to type tonight and my make-up final for Stage make up class and i'm done...also...did you know that you swallow up to and have 2 litters of mucous in your stomach every day? that amount doubles when you have a cold!!! ewwww, gross! thats what the doctor told me when i went to health services the other day....yesterday i babysit this girl's child so she could take her final, it wasnt that bad....
now back to this....this IM...i talked to my friend earlier this morning...just to tell her about this dream i had, which was weird...about this guy from high school that i havent talked to in like 4 years...he got arrested with a few other people we went to school with...maybe i'm being super sensitive...and needy...and maybe i'm looking into things too much and over analyzing...maybe i'm just not listening to my self and sounding like an idiot...maybe i do have a problem with my friend because i feel like she isnt there sometimes...maybe i'm too needy for a friendship...maybe i have a problem with her and when i talk to her, instead of telling her that, i get attitudes...maybe just because you've known someone since 5th grade doesnt mean you'll be friends forever...maybe people grow apart.....thats scary to me because i dont have many friends to begin with....maybe you dont know people as well as you think you do.....hey, who knows...but heres the IM...what do ya'll think? maybe i'm being selfish, maybe i'm being a bad friend and not understanding....just want everything on my time and not worried about other people time...but what is taking 5 minutes out your day to call and say "hello i'm just checking up on you"....maybe i do just need to shut up and listen...because i wont stop talking until i say what i got to say...not that i have to have the last word....but i got to finish off all my thoughts before i shut up, and the other person can have the last word...maybe i was being a jack ass, i probably was...i need to learn to just shut up sometimes.....

Craziness
i dont know what's going on with me or whats wrong with me....today in class, i got into it with my professor...i know i was wrong, and as a Christian i was especially wrong, but he is such a jack ass! OMG he just pretty much called all of us undergrads stupid in a "pretty" way....he just belittled us in class...just to us, not the grad students...acusing us of not having our group performance, that he ONLY gave us a week to do, together....and we have to do it on a sunday! he came in class and snapped on us, so some of us, well some people left, but i know i snapped back...then tears started to come..he gonna say "dont expect me to say (whatever he was blabing about) to make you feel good"...i was mad because he assuemd we weren't working...when you give a group of 6 people who all have different schedules a performance to put on a sunday, and half of these people have other performances themselves for other classes...then you're going to have a problem...2 of our people are going out of town this weekend and wont be back until the day we perform...it was a mess...one girl went to talk to him already becausee she said she needed to get it off her chest, and that as a Christian she was wrong because she knew she already had a problem with him before and didnt go to him a tell him...maybe thats what i need to do before i really snap off...i was cursing, and i dont even curse....well not at the teacher, after we all left class and was venting in the green room...someone said "you know Toya is pissed because she dont even curse"...and i was...and i was hurt...he's the only black falculty in the dept...and not saying he has to give us special attention (the ones in ouir class thats black), but dont try to make us seem like we're stupid...that hurt, it really did....that makes him no different then the white falculty that might act that way here, or any other teacher for that matter...and he's talking about all of this African this and that and being united and double concsiousness...he needs to cut all that bulll...he's wrong for coming at us like that...so this happens....i am friendless, well feel friendless....lonely...i'm stressed...been having to go to the doctor, my body dont want to act right...womanly problems...a cold, and a possible sinus infection...and feel like my body is going to shut down any day now...and my mama is laid off of work once again starting tomorrow...i've been doing things i probably shouldnt have been doing....i feel like i've lost a connection with God and i'm just slowly slipping farther and farther away....and i still gotta type up thos 80-110 minute play, damn...God please help to make things better...i know they're not even really that bad, i know people go through worse, but i feel awful!
