My Bad

been busy with school and work, havent posted in a while. i got a new schedule at work, so ill get this thing up and running again.

Big Ass Snake

$12; are you serious?

guess this is what you get when you're poor, live at home with gma, and she claims you. lol

step show

mexicans; boy i tell ya ..

beats going to the "shop" to buy a new axle and get it installed. this is where the asians that build their cars sent me. man, if that shit woulda fell ..

class started 2 hours ago; oh, am i late?

11:OOAM-12:15PM: HIST-181 Black Perspective is what i have Monday & Wed. today i woke up at 10:45 and was 10 minutes late to class. now, that's okay. i just missed some papers the teacher passed out, and when i walked in, we were starting a movie.

so, its 12:10. and the door opens. and this guy walks in, with 2 tennis rackets, and a towel on his head, and really sits down for the remainder of the class. c'mon my nigga, 5 minutes left? what are you really going to get out of that? smh ..

Blue Collar?

or in my case, for the last 8 months its been a red collar. i work at the gym, and im mostly in the bball courts, and i don't do sales. and they had me wearing a collared shirt. i had asked MY manager for one of the Nike Dry Fits that the trainers wear, and everytime i got a "no, you can't wear that". so, today i came into work, and the Club manager tossed me a new shirt. NO collar. feels good.

Cancelled

this time change is fuckin with me. i haven't got the hang of it just yet. so today as i rolled over to get up for my 11am Black History class, i said to myself "fuck it .."and just go back to sleep. 20 min later i get a txt from the home girl jay saying "hey, what's your last name? class got cancelled and there's a sign in sheet." woohoo. lol. good thing to make friends in class so they can sign in for you when you don't even show up.

so, that class got cancelled, and my 8am class tomorrow is cancelled too. its my public speaking class. nice way to end the week.

Ending Week 6 Update

man, its been a min. i havent posted in a while, because ive been busy with school and work. lets see. last week, math test, this week english midterm, and a speech in com122. this week is done thos still with A's in all my classes. so thats a plus.

my DL has been suspended since the summer. yea, i've been riding dirty for a while now. i even got caught, with a certain sum1 who bad luck back in jan. and they wrote me a ticket, and took my DL because you're not even spose to have it on you if it's suspended. so heres the run down. i had an outstanding ticket, from the summer. then the new ticket. when they suspend your DL, you cant get it back, untill you pay ALL fines. so, i go to the court house, and all i have is the ticket from the summer. the ticket from jan didnt post. so, im like, this is a set up. go to the DMV, all they have it the ticket from the summer. i pay my $475 for the ticket, and $55 for the reinstatement fee. now i have a valid DL, and dont have to get spooked everytime i see a cop.

Week 5 Re-Cap

missed school last thurs due to my illness. ended up having a quiz in my public speaking class. (tth). didnt study, read, nor have any notes. still aced that bitch. black history, we still have yet to turn in one assigment, or have any hw. im loving it. english, i have an essay due next week, and a midterm. math, we had our 1st test this week. there was one problem i spaz'd out on, shouldnt affect me too much though, as ive gotten 100%'s on my 3 quizzes, and my 2 hw packets up untill now. thats pretty much it. schoolin' workin' having no social life. but it'll pay off during the summer. got my eyse set on the prize. and its a pretty nice one. end of week 5, still got str8 A's. fuck with me ..

Thanks to DAUCHE

Update via sidekick

this is coming to yall from the back of math 103. lol. were going over our quizes, cuz we have a test on thurs. the 1st one of the semester. lets hope i do good. anyway, i missed school last thurs because i was sick. last thurs i ended up missing math, and public speaking. math we turned in a quiz (turned that in late today) and public speaking, ended up taking notes, and having an outline due today. oops. see what happens when u miss school. if i email my teacher the outline before midnight, shell only deduct 5%. so, ill knock that out today. AND on top of that, we had a quiz in that class too that i wasn't ready for. hopefully i get at least a C. that's what i got on my quiz last tues, that i didn't study for. i guess by just sitting in class, my brain absorbs 70% of the information. ha ha. [not funny]. that's my day so far, now im about to go to iHop BY MYSELF cuz every1 else is wack, and im going to get my free pancakes ..

Another night in the jungle

niggas, basketball, back flips, and fades.

this was wed the 18th (while im feeling like shit).
guy does a back flip after a fast break score. lets label him A. so, the guy he scored on, (label him B), told him to do it again, the back flip that is. (keep up now).

so A does the back flip, and Bs dumb ass flinches at him while hes doing the back flip. so as A comes to the ground and catches his balance, he gives B a quick lil 1,2 combo. B is dazed by it, and you can tell he doesnt want any. by this time, im over there, its broken up. everythiing is spose to be "all good". i told B, you dont play around like that, and a busted lip is better than a law suit is A would of landed on his neck or something of that nature.

game goes on.

about 2 possesions later, they come back down to my side of the court, and B, trys to get a cheap shot in on A, when A is going for a rebound. 1st of, A isnt even paying attention, and B str8 misses. they get into it, B starts to get worked again, i go and grab A, try and settle him down, hes still talking shit to B, while this is going on,i forgot A had come up there with someone. so as im pulling A away, As partner comes, and just knocks out B. with a smooth uppercut. it was so loud, it hurt me. by this time, other ppl that were playing, had grabbed every1, and stopped everythig, and both parties left.

theres prolly more to it, that i left out, but hey, its friday now, i wasnt feeling good, so give me the benifit of the doubt. ha ha, i love my job ..

Death Proof

at least as of now i am. i felt like dieing the last couple of days. my throat was killing me. i even missed school yesterday. idk, i hardly ever get sick. and i wouldnt even call this instance being "sick". the ONLY thing that was wrong. was my throat. oh well, a couple lemons, salt water, vicks sore throat spray, and some soup, and im feeling a lil better. lets hope im 100% by monday at the latest.

(i was told) The worst fuckin GUNDOWN i have ever witnessed

"Yogurt and I are chilling infront of 7-11 on Paradise Valley Road with one of our homies that works there. Its about midnite...

We hear a bunch of people at the Hooka Bar arguin and shit (nigga skyline this skyline that). they were arguin with a bunch of mexicans..then it all stopped

We all got sad that nothing happened then a dude starts creepin up on them and shoots 6 times from about 20 feet away. He fuckin misses everyone...EVERYTHING for that matter (no glass no building no NOTHIN)

son of a bitch.."

President's Day

woke up to the rain. which wasnt too bad. no school because of the holiday. still had work however, 4-10. wasnt bad. broke up about 5 fights. i swear niggas dont know how to act. me and my nigga steven went to wings-n-things, watched around the horn, and PTI. soon as we were done, the "itis' kicked in. got home round 2:50, with work at 5. good thing steven was using me to get into the gym today, he called me at 3:45 asking what time i was heading up there. if it wasnt for him, my ass wouldve slept through work. that would have not been a good look, or a smooth way to stat off the week. tomorrow i have comm 122 (public speaking), and math. comm 122 at 8am, with a quiz on ch. 1, 2, & 5. so im about to do my best to absorb some of this info, and take my notes, so going into week 4, i can keep my A.

first and foremost, i would like to say "FUCK Jim Jones !!!". that nigga didnt even got plat. how are you going to advertise an event, make it 18+ & 21+, have the dress code on the flyer, and it doesnt say a damn thing about dress shoes. your special guest and birdgang dont even wear dress shoes. fuck downtown, dressy is not my swag, so i will reframe from taking my black ass down there untill i turn 21. at least thats how i feel now. we got down there, and they turned away EVERYONE no matter the age, without "proper attire". oh well, i aint trippin, we had bought our presale tickets, for 25. the cover down there was 35+ so we just let our tix go for the face value. took that 25, and spent 20 to go to wack ass decos. well, it wasnt THAT bad, cuz everyone that got turned away, ended up being there. not THAT bad of a night. could have been better. oh well, theres my vent.

Week 3

Im on a roll like the Lakers. class is going smooth. got my grade for my intro speech: 19/20. math grade:105%. english, book store ran out of our book, so our paper isnt even due till next wed, turned that in early, getin extra credit. black hist: we still just take notes, and this week we watched a movie. the ball is bouncing my way. with no school monday, and things going the way they are, week 4 should be a piece of cake too.

is when: everyone goes left, & you go right.

today's been a good say so far. started the day off in my public speaking class, and we had our intro speeches today. i went 2nd. got it out the way, and knocked it out the part. lol, that class is a piece of cake. some people really need that class though. it was funny seeing people make a fool of thmeselves. shit, for all i know i looked stupid too. oh well. some girl even got sick 5 seconds into her speech, and threw up. shits nuts. then, i have 105% in my math class. and math isnt een my strong point. but i got myself a tutor, so ill ace that class. we did 2.5 and 3.1 today, so i got that hw to knock out, and the ch. 3 quiz due on the 19th. the 16th the school is giving back 5$ for books, so next monday, thats a cool lil fast food meal on the school. BUT we dont even have school monday, (prez day), so ill pick t up on tues. aside from all that, its pay day. tank on full, pockets on full, straight a's, things are going smooth. couldnt ask for too much more. well, 1 thing, but only time will tell. welp, i got this english hw to do, math, reading for public speaking, and history notes to review. so ima end this here, and hop on that and try and do some of it before i have work at 4 ..

0ne Scary Ass Game

Resident Evil 5 - i used to watch my uncle play this series on the PS2. now it's about to drop for the PS3 and X-box 360. as i type this, i'm downloading the demo, to give it a try. i don't know if i'll be able to make it through the demo, let alone actually go out and cop the game. this game, is very graphic, and frankly scared the shit out of me when i was younger .. lol, lets see how i fair against it now. take a look at the video, and let me know if im hyping it up, and if you could sit there and play it.

Knock knock

who's there?

Homework.

yup, it's been a while since i lasted posted something. main reason being, there's nothing exciting for me to post. since parking at school is a bitch, i'm waking up a 6:45am daily regardless of what time my class starts. so it's been school - work - hw - sleep, then repeating itself over and over again. i'm handling it alright though. like this weekend for example, i have math, 2.3 & 2.4 hw, plus a take home quiz. public speaking, re-read ch. 1,2, & 5, plus my intro speech. black hist. reading as usual. then English, these learning logs, and summary's of these essays. plus do my tax's, so i can update this fasfa. and fill out these apps for this financial aid that my advisor gave me. it wont slow my weekend down though. later on today i'ma hit the barbershop, and handle this hair of mine, then who knows what i'll be doing. but i do know come Monday, this hw will be knocked out ..

"I G0T CAKE LIKE EVERYDAY MY BIRTHDAY"

February 1st, 2009

Super Bowl Sunday (my money is on the cards), Rachelles 20th Birthday, and the day in which my raise goes into effect. Pretty good way to start off the 1st of the month.

i need these in my life

Another day at the office

"32 ways to be a champion in business" is the book Mr. Earvin "Magic" Johnson was promoting at my job today.


it was a really busy day today. from 8am-3pm was my shift. running around handling stuff here and there for my managers. it just so happens i work at the 24 Hour Magic Johnson Sport club, so it's HIS club. he was on a book signing tour. my major is business and marketing so, this will be a good read for me. the way it worked today, was the book for 20 cash. for each book that was purchased, the members were allowed to have one item signed. (this didnt appply to staff). people were there lining up at around 5am, waiting for his greatness to araive. its not everyday, that Magic Johnson just strolls into your area.





the above pix, are from when he 1st araived. he did an interview with fox 6 news, then headed to the courts for the signing. he's 6'8 but makes that reporter look tiny. it's funny, he looks exactly the same, and speaks the same as he does on tv.











he was real down to earth. very friendly. answered a lot of questions, signed damn near about anything. the way management said the day was going to go like, they made him seem as if he was an asshole. but he wasnt at all. even after the signing, he walked the club, spoke to members, asked them how their workouts were going, he even used the bathroom. we walked in there with him, and one of the guys is in the stall, and magic, just goes to the one next to him. guys all like, "hey, hows it going?". ha ha, that was funny. then he came and worked the front desk for a while, took a couple more pix, all before the headed out to his next stop, Bakersfield.


now this guy right here is super chill. his name is Andre Johnson. i couldnt tell that magic was his dad. i actually started a convo with him, because of his tatts. he has some DOPE ass ink. then i was like "soo, who are you? you work for him?" he responds "yea, ha ha, thats my pops .." i swear i dont see it. maybe im trippin. anyways he gave me his contact info. not only does he want some of the pictures i took, he said he'll see if he can plug me with an internship. durring the summer of course. their office is in beverly hills. but HE stays "near the water". i asked him, why he didnt hoop. and she said "don't get it twisted, im nice on the court, i just dont like being compared to my pops, and being held to a higher standard, so i just went to UCLA and got my degress, i was asked to play for the team, but turned it down. i like to stay lowkey .." so i mean, we'll see, i'll stay in contact with him, and see what happens. hopefully he's not blowing smoke up my ass.





Don't think i left empty handed. i got all this signed, a ball, name badge, the book, and this poster. i need to get a case for the ball, and i'll be set. how was your day at work?
