leadership/service junkies.
ITS FRIDAYYYYYYYYY !
remeber when WPGC used to do that?
they probably still do that i just never listen to the radio to know.
But umm heyyyy i’m at my internship today and I love it. It’s just exactly what I love doing right now ( coordinating a service program to turn average students into active civic service-minded agents in their communities :)) lol
this weekend is cookout galore !! yum yum yum yum yum
soo excited to eat all this FREE THAT SPELLS FREE food !!
Oh and yesterday was too legit cause I got a job offer from a manager at the Sunglass Hut wayy too randomly. I was just telling my friend how I was jobless and the manager goes oh well go next door and apply ! lol thats hilarious !
but yeah i applied and it was good i hope i get it !
I am home now. Graduation was cool. I had no time to blog which is why I’m doing so today from my cube at school.
this internship is so much fun, but im not gonna write about it here. you’ll have to read Day 8 :)
******DISCLAIMER******* THE WORD DISLIKE AS USED IN THIS BLOG DOES NOT MEAN “HATE” IT JUST MEANS YOU DON’T PARTICULARLY CARE TO BE FRIENDS WITH. THIS IS A PERSON YOU CAN SMALL TALK WITH AND TOLERATE BUT IT PROBABLY SHOULD STOP THERE. THE WORD LIKE REFERS TO YOUR HOMEGIRL/BOY. A FRIEND BLAH BLAH BLAH******* ok, continue :)
Everybody pretends to hate fakeness but why are all the fake people “cool” ?
Because we’ve made them to be.
I think people are really afraid to be that person who doesn’t like the “super sweet pretty girl” so they just go with it rather than living out their “she’s actually not that nice” beliefs and seeming like a hater*i hate the word hater by the way. it just sounds like only 6th graders should use it*
Anyways…Unlike most people who don’t know much about this person past facebook statuses or tweets, you’ve had a personal experience with them and have seen beyond the “hey hun, sweetie, boo, babe, gorgeous *insert obvious I don’t know your name filler here*
I’m victim to this too. Idk why but theres this pressure to be nice to certain people and its not necessarily a “go-out of your way creepy fake nice” but you find yourself sometimes doing things and then walking away thinking “why did I just do that….-__-” An example of this would be saying hi while passing them and then stopping to start a conversation about something you know they may care about but you personally have zero vested interest in but you start the conversation anyways. The whole time you’re in your head like “why am I doing this ?! I really don’t care about these shoes or that upcoming party! oh gosh, why didn’t I just say hi and keep it moving ?! this is annoying -_-……..Am i fake? 0.o” *lol i went a little far but its true*
I think this happens because it’s super hard to explain why you don’t particularly like some people especially when it seems the whole entire world does. The funny thing is all you can and should do is continue to be nice to this person. Small talk is perfectly appropriate but end it there. The extra conversation really makes it seem like you’re egging on a friendship and then…..yeah you’re fake lol. But no really its not like you’re gonna broadcast to the entire school that this person is fake because that’s weird and pressed.
I’m learning to love all but keep it real. lol
PRAISE GOD !!!!
Graduation day !!! WOOOOOOOOHHHHH !
Today me and mommy are going to Towson for the pinning ceremony. I’m excited! All this graduation talk is really inspiring. Its kinda overwhelming and stressful cause its had me thinking tooo much about my future, but I’m just crazy like that, its actually really cool. People are beginning to enter this “real world” thing we always here about…..woahhhh.
I kinda know what I want to do “when I grow up”
*pause* What is with all these coined conventional phrases that are so indifferent towards the present or in some way insinuate that the present is unrealistic . All our lives we are saying things like “when I grow up” or in the “real world” and disregarding the significance of our present day lives. I think this makes people into dreamers and not doers. i mean maybe i’m just crazy but did you notice i just said “when I grow up” and i’m currently 19 ! Like when does that day come….how long do we have to talk like that. How about today I’m gonna be a*fill in blank with a daily goal* rather than spending an entire day dreaming up days that are years away. Its just like the present doesn’t even count its all about reaching some “never coming future reality” that we don’t even know what its gonna be like if God willing we get there.
Now take all this with a grain of salt as I just stated that I myself am a “panicking planner.” I understand wanting to map things out for the sake of security and stability but I just want myself and others to start appreciating the current day instead of dreaming up the next.
verse of the day Matthew 6:27 “Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?”
Oh lol btw I want to go to the Peace Corps after graduating under grad and then return to UMD to get a Master’s in Public Administration. :)
God is goooooooooooood.
Last night I twisted a piece of nude colored yarn around one of my Solange braids and i kinda liked it. I slept with it in but then when i woke up i looked ghetto and so i took it out and threw it away.
Me and mommy went to buy some stuff for Doubra’s party today. YAY shes’s graduating from nursing school !!! woot woot *does party dance* Everything is black and gold because she’s graduating from Towson which i love cause those are legit colors.
guess what…….I did my own make up today ! it all started when i bought liquid eyeliner since it looks way better and then i just decided to go further from there.
It was pretty and natural and i can see myself getting pretty good at it. I’m happy because this is something I wanted to learn how to do myself because i hardly ever like my face when anyone else does it. I would seriously post a picture but im as photogenic as a rhino.
But yeahhhh….to end this great day I’m about to eat some fufu and soup ! yassssssssssss
