Stay?


since i'm going into my last year of school, i have to start looking at grad schools. among my choices are UPenn (current), Temple, Drexel because those are in my area and i used to not wanna be away from my now ex-girlfriend and daughter. but i cannot STAND to be in this area anymore. so i've included 3 NY schools in that. yup, 2hrs away. i'll have to sign custody over to her mother, and i'll visit her as often as possible.

I'm Doing It...


i'm growing a set and getting another tattoo
i HATE pain. and i'll admit, i have a low pain threshold
the first two tattoos were out of STRICTLY good causes
(the year 2006 on my tricep in roman numerals to recognize what a lifechanging year that was for me, and Sidney down my side)
this a "Black Light" tattoo and it's very rare that you'll find some place that does it. i found the only reputable place in philly that does and i'm doing it.
It's completely invisible in regular light, but glows in the dark under a black light. The ink is 100% safe, but it's guap-o as hell.

im thinking:
"love. a luxury i can't afford"
"the goal isn't to live forever; it's to create something that will"
"couldn't wait for success, so i went ahead without it"
"don't wish it were easier , wish you were better"
"minor setback for a major comeback"
"Let Go. Let God."

[in NO PARTICULAR ORDER]

"if the bitch doesn't do it to my liking
i make the bitch do it all over again"

pump your brakes...BITCH!? there is not a word in the english language i hate more than the word BITCH when used as an adjective. i'd rather have a white man call me a nigger, than hear a male call a female a BITCH. that's how much that word pisses me off.
but anyway, these kinds of maury episodes really get to me, because in MY situation, my girlfriend doubles as the mother of my child and i would never ever think about doing that to a female like i got a daughter and shit, that just makes me look at females in a whole different light. any nigga that makes his female cry, or doesn't wipe her tears when she does is no friend of mine. you're a coward if you take pleasure in someone else's pain and misery. growing up with so many sisters, aunts, neices like im SO tight that i just watched this and it could possibly be true.

hope everybody's back in school, getting educated.
i just started my junior year at UPenn and it's killing me already.
Calculus is a bitch. first day walking into that class and the teacher started off with a test
..talking about "didn't you guys take this in HS" yea nigga, but that's not the point.
i got a C on that test, calculus is WACK.
Sports Medicine is interesting.
anatomy is a battle to stay awake in.
Biochemistry is boring.
Media & Pop Culture Sociology has nothing to do with my major but it's way too easy to drop.
Graphic Design is the best elective ever.
why are this year's freshman females so BAD? like wtf ..

SidTheKid just started pre-school.
you know how some kids cry on their first day?
nah, she kinda forgot we were even there.

i coped with my brother's suicide well this year.
i never used to call it wat is was, just a death.
but i mean suicide...it is what it is...therapy helps :)

last time i will speak on this nigga because ... yea , im tired of hearing about him

so he went on larry king live, i myself did not get to watch it
i went to see G.i Joe with my nephew cause he's staying over for a bit.
but i'm listening to it right now.

i sit on BOTH sides of the fence
a) i think he needs to be in jail . idc. i went to jail for the aggrevated assault of a grown ass man who HIT ME FIRST. how come he gets to be free?five years probation? i got 2 andd community service. mike vick killed some dogs, CB almost killed a human....

b) mannnn only two ppl have been affected by this shit. that's CB and Rihanna. he doesn't owe anybody else any kind of apology, he has nothing to prove to you guys, he is not GOD so his actions don't affect you directly OR indirectly.

when it got down to the knitty gritty, CB backs out talking bout "i don't wanna talk about it" probably legally but still.

i'm done with it. sucks for both of them. god bless the USA

people always say it.
it's cliche.
it's the thing to say when you realize that someone is suffering a loss.
but honestly, there's nothing you need to be sorry for.
unless you killed the lost one,
in that case you need not be in my face .. EVER
and you'll never be sorry enough for certain losses.
certain losses aren't even LOSSES anymore, they're just like
"i'm sorry that you don't have a working kidney anymore"
being sorry isn't going to give me a functioning kidney...
...why even remind me my shit is jacked...
or "you're family is in my prayers" . bullshit . will you REALLY think about me
before bed that night? NO lol

a simple "feel better" will suffice.

yep folks, it's THAT TIME OF YEAR :D
august 28th , 2009 . the biggest sob story ever told.
RSVP today!

from the time i was 17, i went to therapy every week. i stopped when i was 19, but decided to go again in may of this year. everytime you tell someone you went to therapy, they assume you're all fucked up in the head, but you're really just all fucked up inside.

reasons why i went to therapy
A) i watched my oldest and favorite brother die
b) to deal with all those angry emotions that caused me
to get into a fight a week in High school
C) to "cure" my fear of clowns
okay, to clear that up. when i was 6 years old, my brothers tied me down and forced me to watch the whole movie "IT". i was traumatized, and until i was 16 lol. when i went to therapy, i kinda eased out of it. but i still hate clowns. they make me nervous.

i used to have a problem admitting that i go to therapy, but now it's whatever. we're all grown up in here. i'd rather be in a controlled environment than to be home, depressed and capable of doing shit you'd hear about on the 5 o'clock news.

the man thinks.

i'm doing 8hr shifts at Victoria's Secret to make up for the fact that i'm taking the next week off so Sidney.. basically been under her mom's care (YIKES) and apparently, Sidney Ray had gotten some sort of "cut" on her thigh and her mom cleaned it and put a band-aid on it and thought it was okay. i asked Sid about it when i got home and she said she fell and something cut her .. okay, cool enough. so the next day i'm taking her a bath and i try to wash her thigh but she wouldn't let me touch it (the band-aid was still on it) she said it hurt when i touched it. suspicious but you know how kids are. she gets into bed and tells me she can't sleep on that side because it hurts so much, but then again she hadn't cried or even COMPLAINED unless something touched it.. the morning after, i'm doing laundry (Laundry is for REAL men btw) and she had some bloody pants therefore i ask to see the "cut". i see it's an open bloody hole and i feel around the cut and there's something HARD inside this girl's leg. let's PAUSE for a minute. this child's mother simply bandaged an open, bleeding like crazy hole and didn't tell me about it? nigga imma certified EMT-III!!! so yea, took her to the Emergency Room, the nurse felt around it and she said there's definitely something in there. no shit. the doctor comes in, feels around, she said there's definitely something in there. really?. she orders an X-Ray. the X-Ray is taken and it shows that there's DEFINITELY something in there. by this time, i was more frustrated than a constipated pregnant woman. so, Ms.Doctor gets some kind of doctoral instrument and she says to Sidney "tell me if it hurts" because it was too late since she got the cut for anesthetics.... Ms.Doctor then proceeds to slide this into her leg, and pull out a 5 inch shard of glass from her leg.
Sidney didn't even FLINCH.

i've seen some bangin ass light skinned girls. i've also seen some halloween type light skinned girls. i've seen some bangin ass dark skinned girls. i've also seen some ugly dark skinned girls.
i've seen some bangin ass hispanic, asian, caucasian girls.
so on and so forth, you get the point.
at first, i think the whole Light skin dark skin thing came about over HAIR. most lighter skinned females tend to have longer hair because they tend to be mixed. most guys like long hair. i like long hair. (shoot me)
ME, personally, honestly, i've never dated an african american female.
my babymama is BrazilianSpanish. the one before her GreekDominican. the one before her GermanPanamanianBlack. before her Philipino. before her FrenchColombian
(yea, i have a thing for exotic females).

point is, neither of yall is better than either of yall.
and light skinned boys get it IN.

the man thinks.

Again

changed the name of my blog to A Man's Thoughts.
cause i'm NOT a baby daddy. i'm the best dad in the world
and cause i'm Ginuwine's biggest straight male groupie
and that's the direction i wanna go in with my blog
all about analyzing the common female and a male's thoughts towards her.

Mr.UPenn

idea stolen from http://meldenisesays.blogspot.com

3rd year at UPenn , one of the ivy leagues. against all odds of course.

What made me choose University Of Pennsylvania?
it's close to home, i already had a job in Philly, it's an ivy league school...

Where else did I apply/accepted?
applied to NYU (was accepted, spent one year there)
applied to Drexel, University of Miami (FL), Florida A&M, Rutgers
accepted to all but, those were on sports scholarships

Did I receive a scholarship?
yea, i'm on a FULL RIDE there :) (outside scholarships)

What were my high school grades/test scores like?
i was one of those people, who took all the AP's possible...but cut class all the time while still keeping up with the work. i was out of school suspended for the second half of my junior year but i scored a 2290 out of 2400 on the SAT, didn't take the ACT

What do I like most about my school?
best professors ever. they actually try and make class interesting, even LECTURES.
it's not in the middle of nowhere either

What do I like the least?
not that i'm a racist, but it's only around 7% african american..so it was a complete culture shock being that not only am i black/hispanic but i have a pretty weird southern accent. i always feel like somebody's judging me or looking at me sideways. plus ppl here think they're on top of the WORLD, too good to talk to you and what not. it's every man for themselves

Do I get homesick?
no...my mom and stepdad are less than 30 minutes away lol i live on my own tho and it gets kinda lonely if Sid is somewhere else.

What extracurriculars am I involved in now?
not a DAMN thing. i have to work all the time to pay my bills..

Campus Life?
lot of frats and sororities like u see on tv. um, Akon was here this past spring...
so it can get crazy at times. there are plenty of bars and nightclubs around too

What is my next step after graduation?
i'm actually looking at med school brochures THIS year.. i'm only applying to three. the UPenn one, Columbia, Johns Hopkins. that determines whether i stay in Philly, move to NYC or Maryland.

General advice about college?
FIRST SEMESTER FRESHMAN YEAR IS NOTTTTTT ALL ABOUT PARTYING! biggest mistake ever. u get excited about being free and all, but just dont go overboard. study EVERYTHING, tests are never easy. try and develop a relationship with all ur professors, it could be the difference in a pass and fail. and most of all, balance your time wisely...

10 more

1. because basketball was the ONLY sport i've ever been told i sucked at, i practiced so hard to spite that person, and was an all-league player the next season. i had an ego.

2. instead of porn, i own the world's biggest collection of barney, spongebob, dora and the backyardigans. oh, and the big comfy couch.

3. i drink ensure on a regular basis.

4. i'd actually watch the big comfy couch willingly. it's pretty amusing. especially when she reads the story at the end, those are always good.

5. i thought i wanted to have boys, but after Sidney. i want like 2 more girls and i'm DONE

6. i make my OWN jamaican beef patties

7. i'll never let a girl pay her share for dinner, movies, etc. being independent is cool, but let me feel useful

8. i always wonder what "menstrual cramps" feel like

9. i like the big comfy couch, yet im fuckin' TERRIFIED of clowns...how does that make sense?

10. i obnoxiously yell at the movie screen.
