FIRST, and foremost, I AM GOING BACK TO SCHOOL!!!!! Yes you heard right. Ya girl has decided to stop half assing and go to finish her education. It took me two years to learn what I really already knew. There isn't much you can do with a high school diploma nowadays. And thanks to our president's NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND act, the diploma has about as much credibility as your Cabbage Patch Kid's birth certificate. And that's real. I am excited as hell. I miss what it meant to be a student. I miss staying up all night doing research papers and cramming for that organic chemistry exam the night before. I miss trying to find the most comfortable seat in the back row of the history class so I can catch up on those Z's I missed while I was doing the research paper. I miss going to greek parties and watching all of them do line dances and sing chants and remembering how many of them were truelly squares before they pledged. I miss hearing all the gossip, like how dude's babymomma came and acetoned his car while he was in his dorm, or about that chic and the whole football team...............Maybe that's why I didnt do well the first time around. Anywho, I'm more focused than what I used to be. And I'm not getting any younger. (I'll be 24 on Dec 20th by the way). Speaki8ng of which........................ Do you know that some of my fellow co-workers told me I was gonna miss out on life simply because I told them I wanted to wait until I graduated from college and got into my career before I started a family? Excuse me for feeling responsible for my kid's future before they got here. You know, everyone doesnt take pride in standing in line to get an EBT card because they weren't financially able to raise a family on their own. I ,personally, don't want anyone's assisitance. Excuse me for wanting a stable marriage before I have children. Excuse me if I want to have a decent roof over my head reliable transportation and money saved up for my kids education. I know a lot of single women with children and I wouldnt switch places with any of em. Not one. I see their struggle. I see them get tired and weary as the burdens of single parenthood weighs down on them. I see them aging twice as fast as they should because majority of the time they are stressed. And if that means Im going die and old maid with no kids and a dry shriveled up twat then SO BE IT. Not to offend any single mother with kids. Yall got it rough, and you couldn't convince me otherwise. I admire y'all for handling things, but my name is not Neo. I am not the ONE. Not to mention a twenty-something single woman with no kids is a hot commodity. And having a degree makes it even better. With all that said, YES I AM GOING BACK TO SCHOOL. For myself, for my family(those who are here and those who are yet to come).
I think I've said enough for this session, please feel free to comment. I'd love to hear what you guys think(well most of you anyways). Until the next time I feel inspired. |
