SPORTS TALK: Texas A&M Aggies

Aggies...why you mad son?! lol...UT pissed them off for real! Well today the Aggies announced that they plan to leave the BIG 12 by July 2012 if they are offered acceptance into another conference. This will be interesting...

The Aggies don't appreciate University of Texas getting its own network (amongst other things) but I bet if they had the same opportunity, they would do the same! Anyway, the Big 12 has formed a committee to look for replacements. The BIG 12 has already been cut down to 10 teams with the departure of Nebraska (Big Ten) and Colorado (Pac 12) so it will be interesting to see how the conference reacts with filling the spots. BUT, I didn't know there was an "EXIT FEE" to leave a conference! There's a fee for everything! lol...If the Aggies leave Big 12 they will likely pay a very expensive fee...Nebraska paid $9.25 million and Colorado paid $6.9 million. That's some crazy loot!

A move to the SEC will definitely give Texas A&M more exposure and funding but the competition will be TOUGH. Regardless of where they end up, I hope it doesn't back fire on them. The SEC previously said it was cool with its current membership but left the door open to expansion. The Aggies would need the votes of nine of the 12 presidents from the member schools for the SEC to allow them into the league.

This move by the Aggies could set up the University of Houston to join the Big 12. U of H isn't a powerhouse but the move will help them gain notoriety and possibly a better recruiting class. It will definitely take them a while to be able to compete at the higher level of the Big 12 but it is possible.

I'm eager to see how this all turns out! The Saga Continues...

Bar Study...

Maaaan this shit ain't no joke...but i'm a G so y'all know i'm gettin it done! lol...naw but for real, I'm just tryna stay focused and not get rattled under the pressure. This exam is just a mere formality of what I've proven through three long years of law school. I'm taking the challenge as it comes and embracing the journey.

The test is almost here...please keep me in your prayers. If God says the same, it will be a major celebration when the test results come in November. Until then...

Moving On...

Sooo I finally got fed up with the continuous lies, disrespect, lame excuses, and false promises. I'll just wait for God to bring that special person into my life. You can't change a person...either they're gonna do right or continue to do wrong.

BUT, on a lighter note...I'm about to graduate from LAW SCHOOL! It's been a long time coming and I thank God for guiding me through. It's gonna be a celebration indeed! So even through disappointment and heartache...there is still joy!

Please keep me in your prayers...God Bless

Trust...

Being in a relationship is hard...especially when you're continuously doubting your trust in the other person. Why is it so hard to commit to one person? Why is it so hard to respect your partner in the relationship? If you really love someone, why do things to question it?

If I met someone today, gave them my number, and starting talking to them on a regular basis showing extreme interest...would you have a problem with that? I THINK SO! So why put me through it thinking i wont find out...I do believe in a woman's intuition and I think I'm right that my trust in you should probably be questioned. I don't like to be lied to or blatantly disrespected in the comfort of my own home as you put your phone on silent trying to secretly text. I know the game...it's not new. If you wouldn't like for me to flirt with someone, then why are you doing it? Why do you think everything is ok as long as you don't have sex with her? The way I see it...all of your actions are just leading up to when you will eventually have sex.

Can anyone relate? I guess its true that a good man is hard to find. I could be trippin and thinkin about the situation too hard but i doubt it. I just wish he could be in my shoes right now...

I guess what im trying to say is that the person I thought would be the love of my life actually might not be...and it hurts so bad right now

I'm BaaAAAaaaCK...!!!

Soooo I've been gone for a minute...but I'M BACK!

What's good?! It's 2010 and wow there's been so much that has happened already! Both good and bad!...maybe I'll spill the beans in a later post...idk

Anyways, I hope everyone has a blessed and prosperous year! TTYL

Time to Bring in a NEW year...

2009...it's been quite a year

Some bad...but definitely outweighed by the GOOD! I thank God for all that he has done and will continue to do in my life. I don't do new years resolutions, but I hope and pray to have a great 2010. Hopefully someone special will come into my life in 2010...time will tell. This single life thing is kinda gettin old...i think i'm ready to let go of the partyin ways if that special someone comes along. Hey just keepin it real with y'all!

Anyway, enough of the mushy stuff! lol...I hope everyone had a good/great 2009! I pray 2010 will be even better!!!! Happy Holidays

This is for the ignorant people...I LOVE HBCU's!!!

Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs)
In the late 19th century, colleges for black students were started in box cars (Atlanta University) and church basements (Spelman College). Mary McLeod Bethune, one of the nation's foremost black educators, opened a college in 1904 with $1.50 and 5 students. Today, there are 106 historically black colleges and universities in the United States, who can count among their graduates such luminaries as W. E. B. Du Bois (Fisk University), Thurgood Marshall (Lincoln University and Howard University), Toni Morrison (Howard University), and Martin Luther King, Jr. (Morehouse College).

How Dare You Question The Value of My Education...

I saw a video of a young lady...who refused to identify herself as black because she felt as if members of the african-american race are "coons" and "niggers"...She disrespected HER RACE and the value of education at Historically Black Colleges/Universities (HBCU's).

I took offense to it because I know the value of my education as well as the millions of others who have attended and graduated from HBCU's...I am a proud graduate of Prairie View A&M University with a Bachelors of Science in Mechanical Engineering and worked my ass off to earn it.

For anyone who has the ignorant mindset and lack of knowledge regarding HBCU's google it because I don't teach ignorance.

Waiting Patiently...

When is my time? Don't know...but I'll wait.

I have a lot of friends but...

nevermind...God when you feel the time is right...I'll be here.

Random Act of Kindness...

Senseless Killing...STOP THE VIOLENCE

Another young life taken at the hands of another...for absolutely nothing. This has to stop. R.I.P. Derrion Albert...gone too soon.

Closet Rebel...?

Ok...feel me on this.

There's so much that i could've done and been into were it not for me caring about the feelings of my family and religious values...

I do see that the life I've chose to live is better than what I could've lived...but damn...sometimes i just wanna break out and do what i wanna do.

I try to say that law school was all my idea and it's in my heart...but that's not the case so you read between the lines...BUT...it was my decision to go through with it so I'm gonna stick it out and become one tough ass lawyer in a few years. But are there days when I wonder WHY? HELL YEAH.

But, I digress...

The one thing that I am gonna go through with that is probably against how my fam feels is gettin a tattoo...I've been contemplating on gettin one for years but never had the guts to go through with it. My dad doesn't like tats...but his ass has about 5 fraternity brands...yeah, gon and say it...WTF?! I know...i say that too!

So...yep i'm gonna do it...hopefully soon. I plan on gettin a tat of my astrological sign...which is Gemini...yep, Gemini's are the best...don't hate! lol

It is said that:
"Geminis are multi-faceted souls who enjoy knowing a little bit of everything but generally not too much about one particular subject. It's just that variety is the spice of their lives! In Astrology, Geminis have also gained the reputation of being the incessant talkers of the zodiac. Those Twins that don't have the 'gift of the gab' are usually talented writers or have a special interest in foreign languages. In love, they look for a partner who can keep up with them mentally and physically! And, to quote Oscar Wilde, "there's one thing worse than people talking about you, that's people not talking about you." Whether Geminis like it or not, people are usually "talking about them". Together with Scorpio and Virgos, they are a sign that is often discussed, dissected and sometimes even put down by the other signs of the zodiac. Sometimes this is a subtle form of jealousy by others, because Geminis do lead very unique and unusual lives. The Gemini personality can appear mysterious or detached to others and therefore they are often misunderstood and unappreciated for the talents they offer to the world at large. "

WOW...that description fits me to a T...I'm not sure how far i'll go with the tat design wise but it won't be anything too big...just wanna keep it cute and sexy...Pics will be posted when I get it done.

So he apologized...

Ok Mr. West...I still meant every word I said in the previous post...But, I'm glad he saw the wrong in his actions and apologized.

Jay Leno struck a nerve with the "mama" question...cause she probably turned over in her grave after that display of sheer ignorance by her son...but I digress.

Good job on apologizing...

KANYE WEST is IGNORANT...PERIOD.

Publicity stunt or not...Kanye West is the wackest BITCH MADE negro on the planet.

How in the hell you gon' steal somebody shine on an award that didn't have shit to do with you?! You're IGNORANT, DISRESPECTFUL, AND FULL OF SHIT.

Kanye should feel stupid...cause HE DEFINITELY LOOKED STUPID...that rant was just disrespectful on so many levels...Hell I wanted Beyonce to win but SHIT HAPPENS! BUILD A BRIDGE AND GET THE FUCK OVER IT!

Congrats to po' Taylor Swift...Kanye ass betta repent...cause you reap what you sow.

My Honesty Box REVEALED...

You can be anonymous about it...but I don't.

Here's just some of the stuff that ends up in my honesty box...

It's about to get real...!

Dear Maia...

Dear Maia,

Where do I begin? You are a beautiful black woman who has fallen from grace. The drugs, lifestyle, and lack of positive people that have surrounded you over these past years has made you into a demon. Everytime I hear something new about you, it's negative. There's always something about you being strung out or selling your body for money. WHY?

You had the life that so many people would kill for and you let it all slip away! You have to change your life around...it's not too late! The life you are choosing to live right now is not your destiny. WAKE UP!

You will probably never read this, but I pray you decide to make a change for the better before it's too late. The next headline I want to see is 'MAIA CAMPBELL IS CLEAN' not 'Maia Campbell is Dead'...Only you can make the decision to change and I pray you do. You are a beautiful black woman who has a life that's waiting for you to live happily and in a positive light.

Beautiful Woman

Beautiful Smile

Amazing Actress

Unlimited Potential

Maia, please get your life together. There is power in prayer. So, I will continue to pray for you because I know you will eventually see the light and make a change for the better.

God Bless You.

The Death Angel is Busy...

Man, it's alot of celebrity death goin on...R.I.P. to DJ AM...you may remember that he was the guy who had survived the plane crash with Travis Barker last year...well today he was found dead in an apartment with prescription drugs surrounding him.

Of course the biggest shocker was the death of Michael Jackson...but to be honest about the whole MJ situation, it just seemed like people weren't gonna stop until they could blame MJ death on somebody. His death has been ruled a homicide and somebody is gonna take the wrap...that damn Dr. Murray went from bein on top to lookin at jail time for a long time...DAMN!

But, I hope everything works out...R.I.P. to everyone who has passed away this year...

Get ya lives right people...

A manly lookin woman?

Um...is Africa tryna pull a fast one on us or is this really a woman? After viewing the pics, I'm still baffled...but she's probably just a manly lookin woman...with a deep voice...this has got to be a self-esteem killer! lol

According to Yahoo: 'South African teenager Caster Semenya easily won the 800-meter gold medal Wednesday at the world championships...Her dominating run came on the same day track and field’s ruling body said she was undergoing a gender test because of concerns she does not meet requirements to compete as a woman...Her dramatic improvement in times, muscular build and deep voice sparked speculation about her gender.'

LOL...You be the judge.

9.58

THE BOY IS BAD!

If you missed it...kill yourself! lol

Usain Bolt shattered his own world record at the IAAF World Track Championships by finishing the 100-meter at a time of 9.58!...are you serious?! Like I said...THE BOY IS BAD.

But the scary part is...I think he can run even faster than that...I would be shocked but not surprised if he ran under 9 seconds. HE'S A BEAST.
