One of the random things I will miss the most about last year at college was getting dressed for the day and stepping out only to find out what the rest of the crew is wearing. It's crazy where our mind wondered the first two hours of the day, playing music, grumbling about the schedule we each have and stepping out cohesively in our attire. Screaming to the world how we feel, where we are headed and what were all about.

At first, literally. I hated long skirts. The only words they spoke to me were, "Mom", "Nun" and "I want none". Now I see the class, the eclectic side of it and most definitely only a certain few could pull this look off. Upon taking off one of my maxi dresses last week I let it sit on my hip and I was wearing a bandeau cheetah bra. TOTALLY WORKED. I'm looking to purchase an army green, silver/gray or true blue maxi or full length skirt to add to my collection. Who knows I may be forced to make one!
Ooooooo LA LA!

I got chills watching this video made by my friend @KingJaffiJoffer .
How realistic is the scenario of stressed out R.A's?
My mother suggested I be one with free room and board or maybe a paycheck every week.
But does the success of being an R.A balance out with the amount of zeros at the end of a check?
Being a R.A is like being a confidant,
a manager, counselor, adviser, janitor... and the list goes on.
While balancing your schedule as well as others there are only a few special individuals who could
handle being an R.A in college. Even the most successful ones seem to be ones that do not attend the school
but live in the dorms and to be honest that seems heartbreaking.

What up world? This will be my last message from Forrest City. Just reaching out and sending my love, respect and appreciation to all who have been ridin’ with me throughout this chapter in my life and not just recently but since all the things started happening one after another back in ’06. From Big Phil’s murder to my beautiful little angel Leiah being called home to heaven, to my arrest in ’07, the 1st prison sentence in ’09, to this last journey that I’m nearing the end of. A lot of people who are aware of all that has happened to me in my life say that there aren’t many men who could have endured and withstood so much pain, pressure and turmoil while managing to remain sane and keep their wits about them. I must say that I wouldn’t have been able to do so without God’s grace and having a strong support system behind me every step of the way. So often we spend time acknowledging the presence of “haters” and all the negativity they send our way but we don’t take the time to acknowledge and appreciate all the ones who love and support us and supply us with the positive energy we need to overcome. We complain about the pain so much that we don’t even notice how much stronger, wiser and better of a person the suffering has allowed us to become. I heard Pac say once “To live is to suffer and to survive is to find meaning in that suffering.” I later found out it came from an author by the name of Friedrich Nietzsche. When I heard Pac say that it was just some hard shit to hear your favorite rapper say before he kicked a verse. Now that I’ve gone through it and grown from it those words have a real true meaning to me. I know this won’t be my last battle with adversity but it has truly prepared me for whatever else may come in the future. For that also I’m thankful. Now it goes without saying that I hate I had to come back to prison for these 10 months but I am truly grateful for the knowledge, growth and understanding I’ve received from the experience.
Next time you hear from me I’ll be back out there with you. Doing for those who can’t do for themselves and speaking for those whose voices are never heard. When I touch down, I’m going all the way back to square one, like I’m fresh in the game and never sold a record. Back on some I’M SERIOUS, TRAP MUZIK shit… But until then RESPECT to all who deserve it. I’ll be back at you in a minute.
