i love Al Jarreau btw.
anii who i wanna watch knocked up but im too lazii to gt up and put it in, so football it is.
so i hve to write a research ppr abt slave narratives an blah blah blah but im extremely unmotivated to do this paper. first of all im tired of talking about slavery like it still affects us. slaverii was over 100 years ago. we (as blk ppl) need to let it go. everythingtht happens to us isnt because of slavery. we wont get restitution. we need to move on and jus do better. secondly my teacher has no vision fr wht he wants. he jus keeps havin terrets moments and blurting out random things we need for this paper. ugh, its quite irratating.
so today i wore alot of pink. it was low key because its breast cancer awareness month and im pro-save-the-ta-tas and the second reason why i hd on alot of pink was because i was feeln super girly. it was kinda an odd feeling.
in other news its monday, the start of anothr week. i finished 2 characters (Marleigh and Branston) but i hve two more to go. i really hve too much goin on and im extremelii undermotivated. okaii i need to stop bloggin and go write.
k bye bloggees :)

.x Spanish Class
i love the spanish lab in delco. its like the bat cave. I just come down here and get so much accomplished, like creating. I've managed to write six pages (front and back, handwritten) for my next short story. Its amazing how much you can get accomplished in a short period of time. I love this place, as i say it again!
in other news, i feel like everything in my life is in a grey area. my education is in a grey area because Im not exactly sure what I want to do after I graduate. I think i've found what I want to do but it requires me getting an actual job and save up [eek!]. lol, i can do it, i just have to get motivated.
so, a random funny thing, the new spanish teacher is giving a quiz in the lab and i just realized it because this lady is in here on her twitter and facebook. you should not be professor with a twitter page, unacceptable. Speaking of twitter, i need to start tweeting more {@_oniomaniac_}
I wish i could draw or paint, cause i always feel so inspired to get my emotions out that way, but it is.
Man, its Wednesday already, it feels like the weeks are passing by me at an unrealistically fast pace. its crazy. i still havent given my blog a purpose (on a side note).
Ugh, well, im bored and im off to do my usual Jamie-like activities :)

.x cn i please gt a quality education
Prairie View A&M University, we must do better. Its a new year on our horizion and we should voice our opinions and our expectations of our new student leadership. This is my soapbox.
A quality education is not just the responsibility of the student.
Personally, I chose to go to an HBCU because of the hertiage and the legacy that goes along with attending and graduating from an HBCU. There was once a time where going to an HBCU was a prestigious thing, now, its just the cheapest way to get an OP check and maybe a degree ... maybe.
I want to personally select my HBCU and voice my ideas about the university. Before I begin, I wanna ask the inevitable question: why not become SGA president if your just gonna keep complaining. The answer is simple. SGA is a popularity contest. If platforms and change mattered, we wouldn't be in the current state that we are in as an HBCU.
1. Administrative Accountability.
Without the students the administration of PV would be completely irrelevant. They would not have a job if it was not for the students. So why do they get 100% of the say so when it comes to deciding who makes the ultimate decision about what to so with student money. By student money I mean all the money that decides what kind of student activities coming to and happening on campus. If the money is for the use of activities for the students, why cant the students vote on exactly what they want. A prime example is homecoming. Who chose Charlie Wilson. Not the student body.
2. SGA Accountability
During elections I see the candidates for election coming around to classrooms, speaking to me around campus, and voicing their "platform" adamantly. But, the day elections end, I never see the winner ever again ... unless its on facebook in the photo album depicting their trip to various hot spot around the United States. PV needs an SGA president/ vice president that is about more than being in the "in" circle, getting free room & board, and building their resume. The SGA should give a monthly review to the students via the panther that tells about what they accomplished this month and what they plan to accomplish in the next month. Doing this will give the SGA realistic deadlines and a better chance for the common students (not their fellow SGA members) to know whats going on with their campus leadership and their campus in general.
3. African American History
From the moment we step into social studies we learn history. "American" history. So, by the time we get to college we know this history whether we want to or not. So, by being an HBCU we have the perfect opportunity to learn African American History. So, I personally believe that by dropping the two mandatory U.S History classes and replacing them with the two African American History classes that PV currently offers, we would enrich our students appreciation for HBCUs, for their culture, and for their history.
Well, that's my soapbox :)
