N Word Publication (technically/untechnically)
In this week's edition of "The Montclarion," my university's weekly editorial, this comic strip by Keith Knight (who happens to be black) was posted in the newspaper.
Many are fumed by the publishing of this comic in our newspaper and an apology was released to all the students.
*You may have to click on the image to see the full strip.*
This can be seem in many lights, some may say this is positive, some may see this as having no justification. What do you believe? Are you offended by this strip? d why would a university-based newspaper publish this comic strip in the editorial?
One more note to state is that this is not the first time that the newspaper has been in bad terms with the minority students on campus (not stating minorities as being African-American, Latino, Asian, and so on, but minority as WE are the minorities in this school's population). But now a new group is involved, the majority; the women who attend this university. This strip perceives women as incompetent. Also, when a student confronted one of the editors about the strip, the editor responded in a nonchalant matter, as though it does not matter.

::Sigh::
Sometimes I feel like any situation that involves ME and an INTEREST never seem to work in my favor. Why is that?...
And it really upsets me in a way.
Why hasn't he called? He made it seem as though he was interested? Was it all an act?
As a woman, I have to always THINK before I ACT because those same acts can have a big effect on my future, in which guys don't really have to stress about.
I have a lot of pride and sometimes that's what messes me up. I need to learn to LET GO. Of course, I can not let go of my pride, but I need to loosen up a little.
...Easier said than done.

Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)
You KNOW I'm learning this dance! --I love the outfits too ;-)
If I were a Boy
-I can't really post this video up yet because it's not up on YouTube yet, but you can go to mtv.com and watch it there. =]
I've heard this song numerous of times before, but never before has it impacted me the way the video did today.
Yes, I even cried. (Maybe it's just an emotional day for me because honestly, everything has been making me shed a tear or two lately.
Until next time, From my World to Yours,

OneofMyFavoriteMoviesEverGrowingUp.
"Love & Basketball" is one of my favorite movies growing up. I can't get enough of it! Honestly, I think I watch the movie at least once a month, no lie.
This is one of my favorite scenes in the movie (ofcourse the first love scene is everyone's favorite as well as mine hehe). I get all choked up and mushy inside every time I watch this clip. Perfect song, perfect scenario, perfect movie.
With much love and much respect,

...
Lately, I have been feeling extremely nervous and scared. I am (hopefully) about to embark in a very serious and rewarding event that will determine something very HUGE for me. I am just so nervous, so many questions run through my mind everyday on the subject, everday!!!! I just want everything to go my way because I really do want it and I feel as though I will be a perfect fit. Hopefully, they see that as well.
