+Some Girls They...
Being at Morgan State for the last 5 weeks now, I've been around a ton of really different things.....Some even bizarre. On a serious note though, there's some things I can't really make out....others that disappoint me, and some....that I'm surprised would even be considered the norm.I don't know. But out of all of that, instead of doing another Bling Cuisine, which was what I was originally planed on writing at the beginning of today....I'm going to just make this one into another tip piece.
1. Bras were meant to not be seen?? - I don't know if this action is done on purpose, or if it's done on accident....? But, whichever way it's done in, it's done wrong. I'm getting a little blinded from seeing girls with there clearly visible bras, just walking around like that shit was meant to look like that. It's not. A bra is made strictly to hold up your tits. It's something that is like a woman's secret you know, one of those things that is supposed to boost up a woman's shape. It's like when you put a bump it in your hair to make it look more springy, but you don't want people to actually see the bump it? Yeh, like that. It's like when you get out of the shower, you close the blinds and throw on a towel because you don't want anyone to see you naked.....But that's exactly what you look like when you're wearing a see-through shirt with a visible bra right under it. Not a good look.
2. Coochie cutter shorts though, like.... - Alright. There's nothing wrong with shorts. I wear em'....everyone I know wears em', and I'm sure like every girl has those pair of shorts that are like real short no matter how you wear them. I have some shits like those, and I mean hey, if you don't think it's that bad then you just gotta wear what you have, BUT....there's an issue when your whole entire ass is hanging out, and your koukah is pow right in someones face. It's disgusting. Gross. And it's mad unprofessional. In high school, I remember I was always that one girl that was always getting called in because of my shorts, and they were never that short. Going to University, there is no dress code. You wear whatever you want to school, and no one is going to go out of their way to say something to you about it. But does that mean because we know we can wear whatever we want...we should wear the things that make us look skimpy....? I mean, no. It's OD. And believe it or not, it disturbs a lot of people in class watching it. I know I'm not the only one, because the kids usually commenting on it are their own friends.
3. Tummy tricks. - So I mean, the whole wearing cropped shirts that are cropped all the way up to your bra....??? You're doing too much. Everyone has some kind on belly ring to show or some kind of tramp stamp that they want everyone to see, and that's cool and everything....But when you do shit like wear shirts that are just way up high on the crop charts, you're trying way to hard to show something that is really not that significant. And the image is disturbing....! I can't stress that fact, more than enough yung. I'm sitting in the cafeteria, with my roomate trying to grab a bite to eat, and I see these girls come up in there with there nasty lookin' stomachs, which more than half of them do not take care of but insist on exposing to the world. That type of shit makes me lose my appetite. It's really just not needed.
4. Keep what's yours, yours - At this point in time, I truly and honestly consider everyone in my class my friend. I mean, we work together great, you know we crack jokes, It's just the really nice setting. At the same time, there's a lot of people, mostly the girls, that do not know how to keep their conversations within the vacinity of themselves. I hear so many uncomfortable things on a daily basis that I really don't need to hear. This is a University setting. Things should be self-explanatory. You have girls asking the teacher about their sexual affairs and shit.....like wtf? You can't be doin' shit like that. It's highly inappropriate. I see my teacher as like, my boss. Like, if I was going to try out for a job, the last thing that I would have a conversation about is anything pertaining to sex or that persons personal life, because shit like that has a time and a place. And your teacher: Is not your friend. That's how people make their grades worse. Best believe that your professor will NOT take you seriously if you act like that, especially on a University level. I've seen this happen like, right in front of me. So I know where I'm coming from with this.
5. Teeth and tats. - So I've seen a ton of girls with several tattoos....and these like, real atrocious looking gold and silver joints in their mouths....being their teeth. Like.............Ew?? Tattoos are fine, ok, like it's whatever. But as a lady.....who is going to college.....to eventually acquire a job for a high paying job....you will not get hired with all that shit on your body. That's just the way it is. My very own best friend has needed me to say this to her, because she got one and wanted more. It gets addictive, because after you get the first one, you get all artistic and you get new ideas and you want another one......but you need to slow down on that, cause you can fuck up your future thinking that all you need is a degree.....shit....You need to groom yourself physically as well. Not just mentally. And as far as the teeth go I mean....If that's how you really feel then I don;t know. You sure as fuck won't get no job with a permanent grill stuck up your mouth neither. I don't even why girls do shit like that.....? Girls have such a femininity about them, that when you do shit like that....especially to something like your teeth...? That's a sensitive part of the female body. Females smile more than males do....Guys will always notice a females smile, because every girls smile is special to that females individuality....So doing that, really fucks up your face, even if it's not directly on your face. It's ugly. But I mean....do you I guess.
That was a little bit. Hope someone got something out of it.

-A While Away
Hey blog peeps. It's been a minute. Actually.....a very long minute since I've written anything out on here. Times have been very different....and I don't know if I'll even be on here that much till after next week, but something just made me want to try to get in somewhere tonight with it.
Right now I'm actually in another room doing an assignment with a friend. I also have an essay that I need to do. But that's easy.
I wouldn't say that I've been "stressed", but I haven't been my normal self. Anyhoo...I miss having the time to sit on here and write out my thoughts, and talk to the world about "worldly" things and such.
It's like when you are young, and people ask you what you wanna be when you grow up, you answer them, but you really don't think about it like that you know. Then when you get to be like a senior in high school to a freshman in college, you start to really just think like damn.....what the fuck do I wanna do?
I particularly don't feel like I have that specific issue.....If anything, I feel more that I have the talent to do so many things that at times I'm undecided, because I feel as though I can do so much more than what I'm limiting myself to. And that's another thing you gotta remember...
No one is ever gonna take a talent away from you, unless you're taking it away from yourself.
Explore what you can do....Ignore the school aspect of it, and recognize that your life is way more than just a couple years out of school. Really. There's so many people that don't explore their talents all because of a couple more years of school.....that's sad. Money problems are different......but laziness is on a side of it's own.
I also have been really finding myself.
I feel like I have more attitude problems now these days....? I don't really know. But it's safe to say that I haven't been the most happy. But no one's ever merry all the time. I get mad at a lot....very quickly. And I know this. I'm patient to an extent.....but I'm not always in the best mood. I guess that's really what I need to work on for myself...
But why....? I spent so much time in high school, and sometimes even now, helping other people out....
........I have to help myself now.
Anyways....for yungins that read me, know that when you graduate, shit is way different. I only talk to one person I went to high school with, and that's my best friend. It varies from person to person. Others may have more people to talk to, and some may not have none at all....but I can assure you, all your high school BFF's won't be, come graduation. So start thinking about yourself and your life more to benefit you instead of to benefit others, that are probably thinking about themselves. Also: your transition into college is not a piece of cake. There's a ton of kids that are fighting for your spot to do just about EVERYTHING. Get your housing on point, get your financial aid/ FASFA done on deck- FAST, get your stuff packaged to what you need before what you want, and bring enough money to start you off, because you will need that shit. And if you find that you're at a school because you felt as though it was your last option or that you really aren't with it.....don't let that discourage you. Being upset is never an excuse to fail. Because trust that if you're trying to transfer eventually, you won't be able to go anywhere of you don't do well there first. Make every step you take, a good one. Right from the jump.
To all the grown folk reading me: You guys were so right, and then some. I'm frustrated....because everywhere I turn I feel like there's shit that I gotta do. Mom and dad aren't here to blame my problems on anymore.....everything is really just my business. I have no money. Food. I wouldn't even have any clothes if it wasn't for my parents.....and I'm aware of that....and I feel like I have so much more respect for that fact now than I ever have before being out here at University. It's some real nigga shit out here....And to think for now it's free.....but in the fall, shit is gonna take a complete turn. But I have to do it. By myself. And it's mad true....when they say listen to what your parents say....it's for a reason. None of my parents have ever stepped foot into a University...but the shit that they told me before coming out here is all blowing up in my face now. So what....? I'm learning. I'm fucking stubborn. I may never admit to my parents how much they mean to me, but I know inside that shit is reinforced internally to me on a daily basis. I need not be like this all the time.
I'm glad that I got to do just a little bit, if not that much, blogging for tonight. At this point, I can only try to get on here more often, but time will tell that.
Blog peeps....regular peeps, lol.
Goodnight.
