See…I was just about to say that your hiatus was unacceptable, but I actually liked this post. Ironically, I was all set to go to Howard (who knows…we might have been linesisters lol)…had a full scholarship and a laptop, but chose to follow my knuckleheaded best friend to FAM. But I’m so glad that I did because I ended up making connections with people there that still impact me to this day. I truly believe that there is a purpose attached to all of our encounters, big and small.

Enjoy your va-cay…

There’s a reason for everything. If I hadn’t gone to Carolina I wouldn’t have met Mu’s best friend J and if I hadn’t answered Mu’s ad in the city paper it would have probably taken me longer to make that six degree of seperation connection or I probably might not have met you or O. Or most of the other people in my life outside of my family and one friend from H.S.

When I was in High School, there was a south eastern college tour that a couple of my friends and classmates took part in. For some reason or another I didnt go. I just didnt want to. Its like I already knew without even knowing at that time, that I already had a place at another school. Alot of my friends fell in love with this one particular school that many of them visited while on the trip…the free laptop perk sold alot of those bastards…lol. The thing is, I know for a fact that if I would have gone on that trip, I too would have probably fell in love with the school, and gone there in the fall with the rest of them. I would have never ended up at DSU. I would have never met some of the people that I did. I would never be interested and passionately pursuing some of the things that I am now. I just know it. There were times when I’d be like, damn, I should have went down there with the rest of the gang (which was full of other DC folks I might add), but looking back on it now, I dont regret my choice to go where I did for the world.

Ooh, I like this game. Unfortunately, K has taken my relevant “if i hadn’ta” stories. I applied to six HBCUs, and had no idea which I’d attend. Come to think of it, very little in my life prior to about 15 suggested i’d take the route I did. I don’t live with regrets, not usually, so I believe things happened how they were supposed to. Life is good.

Me, I was born to hustle, I knew I was going to have to hustle, and I am glad that I do hustle. Those who have crossed my path have made me the person that I am today. Shout outs to all. Happy Vaca, K. I will prolly do the same @ some point, once I post atleast 2 entries in a week, lol.

Funny thing about my school (FDU). My freshman and sophomore years my school felt very white but by the time I became a junior the vibe had changed and it had become a predominantly black school.

Interesting. The thing about life choices are you never know what turn took you to the destination you are at, and if another turn would have been better or worse and we don’t know where the end will be. What is making me happy now might be something I reflect upon as the beginning of my future misery. It’s too much to even think about.
