Part 3.
I did it.
At 5:00 on the dot, I did it.
And it was a test, I kid you not.
After I left to find those classes, it turns out that the teacher for the last course I wanted had left that class altogether. Enter panic mode.
At 2:50 I enter the Student Academic Center, almost begging for help to no avail.
At 3:04, I wandered to the Tech Center and did a desperate last second search for open...

Grind, part deux.
This isn’t a well-thought out post. It’s just a stream of conscious thought about my day so far.
It’s been roughly four hours since my last post about the ongoing grind.
As it stands, I now have three instructor signatures and 10 credit hours-worth of classes on my schedule slip. Almost ten minutes after I left for that meeting, I got an email confirmation from Temple telling...

Grind.
I have a brief second before I get back into it. Thought I’d share my daily hustle before I dive head-first into the fray again.
Due to a combination of loans and delayed bill payments, I finally managed to remove the hold on my student profile here at Temple last Thursday. The catch, is that the last day to register for classes without instructor permission was last Monday. As of now, you...

"By the time you turn 18 you'll hate cartoons &...
My dad told me this back when I was like, eight or nine. Those were the days when going to sleep early Friday night meant I could wake up earlier on Saturday to catch my favorite morning cartoons on Fox Kids and WB Kids (old school stuff, knawmean?). He also thought I’d outgrow video games.
I may not wake up early anymore, but here I am at 18 years of age, still perfectly in sync with my...

This has been the longest two weeks of my life.
I came back to Philadelphia not knowing at all that I would be able to work this thing out, but I had nothing else to try.
Somehow we’ve managed to pay off the last part of that bill through sheer fucking luck, but now I have barely a weekend to get the signatures from these professors so that I can qualify for late registration, and if I don’t get them by Monday, that’s it for...

I was going to write something profound.
Something passionate.
Something personal.
Something about heartbreak.
Something about betrayal.
Something about isolation.
Something about depression.
Something about defeat…
I was going to write a tale, I guess. A story, if you will. Something… something…
Something about hope.
Something about faith.
Something about inner strength.
Something about struggle.
Something...

In the not-too distant future, I’ll most likely be one of those adults who has a very strained relationship with his parents. The more I think about the lies that I’m consistently forced to tell one or the other, the more I start to resent them for putting me in this situation to lie in the first place.
Just now, I talked to my mom. She found out about the secret bank account that my...

First I am going to say that I am not being “offensive” and that if you read it as offensive, then there is something wrong with you.
Next, I am going to jump head first into a racist/sexist/homophobic/transphobic rant. I will refer to groups as “those people” or…

You people need to get laid already. Jesus Christ.
I’m about to hunt for more movie soundtracks. The composition scores on some of the films of the past decade were nothing short of incredible.
Tron: Legacy ALONE had a Grammy-worthy soundtrack.

The Night Is On My Mind.
I’ve been in this area too long. I’m familiar with all the homeless people on Broad Street and Cecil B. Moore now.
When you know the routine/begging habits of a person you barely interact with, there’s a problem.
World Star HipHop has been shut down.

Now she has the entire hipster community drooling over her, posting her pictures about, and talking about how they knew her “before the fame” i.e. Jackie Burnhart from That’s 70’s Show.
All because she ate out Natalie Portman.
And still Natalie Portman gets no love.
I got mad love for Natalie Portman. She was Padme in Star Wars. And who can forget her song from SNL...

Sometimes, tumblr gets personal. Real personal. Past the point of comfort-type personal. Learning the deep, dark secrets of individuals that you’ve never met face-to-face type personal. Not knowing how to react when you talk to that person the next day type personal.
Sometimes, you scroll down the dashboard, and there’s a post that’s just so… real, that there’s no...

I’m going to the gym for the first time since October tomorrow morning.
It’s been a minute, but I’m trying to regain the momentum that I lost so long ago.
With all the stuff that’s been going on lately, I need more than one outlet to relieve stress all the while working towards a palpable goal. I have my artwork, my music, and now I have my body.
It’s going to be...

At this party tonight, this bad joint grabbed me by the hand, pulled me close, and said “I think you’re really cute.” Then before I could react, she shouted “I just wanted to tell you that!” and disappeared.
Now, either she is a really cruel individual who preys on getting young men’s hopes up, or she was really genuine. So, basically, I can’t tell...
