First Year at VCU

This was a great year for me. Graduating high school and then attending college were two major steps in my life. My freshman year at VCU went by very fast. I learned a lot down here in Richmond academically and about myself. This year has helped me to grow a lot mentally. I will take this year and use it towards next year to further educate myself in college

Summer Job

While at home over spring break one of my dad's good friends asked me where I was going to work over the summer. I told him I still had my job where I had been employed the last 3 years but I was seeking career advancement. He told me about a job opportunity up in Falls Church, Viringia with the Department of Homeland Security. He told me to apply for the position and since he is a director there he would look out for my application. One of the ladies in the hiring office called me about three weeks later confirming that I would be receiving the job. I cant wait to go back home and stack my money

Swine Flu

This is crazy I hope that there aren't any cases that come up in Virginia. I will be washing my hands 5 and 6 times a day now. SMH

Mom

Mothers Day is in a few weeks and once again my mind began to wander. As I look back on my life I believe that I have one of the most loving mothers ever. When I was younger I dont think I appreciated her as much. I would often think she wouldnt let me do certain stuff because she didnt want me to have fun but now I realize she was protectin me. She didn't want me to get involved in those things that everyone out in the streets were doing. I appreciate her for that now because if she didnt do that then there is no telling where I would be now. I may not have even reached the point where I realized what she actually did for me in my life. I love my mom more that anyone in the world and I still dont think that I tell her I love her enough. I Love You Mom

Inked-Up

I did my research paper on tattoos in our society now. Personally I have 4 tattoos and I think that my collection will continue to grow over the summer. I dont think that I am addicted to them I just like tattoos a lot. I wont get any tattoos that will be visible when I go to work but as for everywhere else I will be covered with tats LOL. Shoutout to my cousin Duke for showing me the way LOL

Need That ONE

For years I have been what everyone calls a "player." I have messed with many girls from highschool to college and never have really had a real girlfriend. I may have told a few girls that they were my girl but in all reality it was just to get into their underwear....LOL...but as of lately I am starting to think that I dont want to live that life anymore. Its too much going around for all that and these girls cant be trusted. Now I want a girl that I can chill and spend time with and even be faithful to. I figure i cant be a player all my life so I might as well settle down and see how these relationships work out.

Is College Really Worth It?

Before I fall asleep at night I do a lot of thinking. One night I began to think is going to college really worth all the money, stress, and time that a student has to go through? I know that in our society now that without a college degree a person can't get that big money like we all want, but as I look around I see a lot of people who do have college degrees and the jobs that they have aren't all that. We have to spend all this money to take all these classes that don't have anything to do with what we want to do after college. I dont know maybe I'm thinking too negatively right now but I just pray that when I leave college that I have a career path for success.
