Self-Awareness.

What I breathe.

"The world's seen me lookin' in the mirror,
Images of me, gettin' much clearer,
Dear Self, I wrote a letter just to better my soul,
If I don't express it then forever I'll hold, inside..."



Give Up the Goods...



So it's pretty much the end of the week (friday duh..) and the day's been
kind of busy
..I picked up my homegirl from the airport, haven't seen her in
two years, she's
beenout in D.C. and Detroit, and is now moving to Jersey..
Now she's stopped by
for a month to chill with the peps / fam..etc....

Man i had the craziest ride. Trying to find some
parking - impossible, Ended up driving around the damn airport..AAAAHH!
Then her plane got in at what.. 12.48 or something..We actually been there
at..11.30(FUGG!)..(Hates waiting.) C was in a bad mood, bitching all day a
bout some pity shit, working my nerves. We ended up arguing at the airport
and on the way back like 2 yr olds I was like wtf. We argued about
flowers, about people, about moods, about plans, about
fucken shoes.! Bullpiss. Some days just aren't made
for human beings.



Other than that, her return made me rather upset for undisclosed reasons..
The situation I'm dealing with..reminded me of..Life's a bitch and then you die lol..
Thanks Nasir. You know some people are lucky enough to just have shit undeserved.
Fams, friends, Love, dough..Most of us, lack these "qualities" or just have single
particularities of them...and sure, we acquire personal wealth instead..
Those that face struggles all their life, grow up more mature, deeper, wise
beyond age, mentally less dependent..but made dependent by the circumstance
of their surrounding. It's sad..How much is either one of those depths worth,
while one brings you forward in a matarialistic scenario, and the other "just" makes
you the "better quality" person, while you're being shitted on.
Shit still smells right..Either way you put it. Euphemizing the circumstance is a bitch.
While money might be the most influential issue, when "creating" your life, the way
you want it.

Um..I was thinkin bout hittin the club tonight with everyone "celebrating" her visit,
but I'll pass onthat..(Thinking: I'm 23, it's friday, and i'm at home, while all of my
friends are out..what a loser.) It's just one of those days,
i don't feel too great..
Been crying yesterday, now I'm still upset cause the
problem's unsolved and I
don't really see a way how to solve it just yet, So this "nowayout"-mode drags along.

Frustrated with everything, This adds up to: I
don't know what to wear, don't wanna do
my hair or walk in the rain, don't wanna miss my dear bed tonight, and get home at 5
am with my clothes smellin like shit...I don't wanna get hit on by these dudes..I don't
wanna see my ex. ETC. I don't want
this and i don't want that..

SHORT CUT: I'm bitching. Blaaaah!!!! Why not just stay at home..
Even though
right about now I feel like I'm missin out on partying with them for once..
You know this shit irks...
It's like..DAMMMIT...I wanna be there..but then...NAWWW...
Stay your ass home now, do laundry,
get some pizza, read a book and chill.
(How Boring.)

randomness

I did wanna go..Fucken bs..I don't even know what i want right now,
something just doesn't seem right..I been contemplating going out
for the last 4 hrs..and ended up wanting to stay home just to question
that decision again.

Blah..i'll go..get my pizza. spaghetti.

October in June

Awoken by the penetrance of a 7am call by some jerk, my eyes crawled into the day abruptly. A thought hit me, terrified me, scared me so bad I couldn't fall back asleep. It was the thought of october. The thought of october 1st alarmed my mind and weakened my heart. Not only is october the month of all of my pain, it's the birth month of both of my ex men, of whom one definitely..is ..that one. The person, who while hurting me more than anything in my entire life at our quits, is the one that I as well love more than anything or anyone else in it, while having subtly erased him out of my life after all the pain never left. I knew this week was something else, a nightmare, or maybe a prophecy of something terrible yet to come..but this uncertain feeling of october 1st, on a june 21st, caught me.

My eyes shut wide, my heart racing, almost certain that one of these days I was going to face a confrontation with both of these men that hurt me... This entry is kind of personal and i'm almost feeling embarassment or rather shallowness posting this, but as I don't post much , i will give this a shot to get over it.

It was june 21st and I was scared that time fast forwarded me 4 months ahead, to october, while little ole me - hurt.. unhappy - would have to congratulate those men for their mothers giving birth to them..congratulate them on the insertion into this life's existence..that happens to be nothing but a menace to my own.


Hasty, still confused in my sheets, with my long hair on my eyes and lips, sweating, i grabbed my cellphone to check todays' date and make sure this was just a nightmare...And thank God, it was. A sole month scares the bones out of my skin.

Looking at the datebook, i saw it was June, but i didn't register it as june just then..All that mattered - it wasn't october. I was relieved..my eyes shut..I fell back asleep confused by this sudden emotion..this fear.

I didn't know, neither did i remember it was june..june didn't matter.
I am scared of having to face those, that brought nothing pain and sufferings to me, physically, emotionally, and this fear makes me weak. While having moved on...with no glimpse of hope, pity or remorse left inside me, it threatened my soul, to have to face him.., still so unhappy...just as unhappy as he left me, after all we've given to each other, with nothing but my pride left. And i'll still always love him..because he's a part of me. He - my best friend and my lover..once..still left a void that could not be filled by anyone that followed....What hurts the most, he'll never again have the chance to know how much i really loved...unconditionally..and still do.

Who would have ever thought, we would once just be memories..

Once the love of my life, he is now my worst pain...because once, forever, we said,
"he is I and I am him"...



It's not a - holding on- entry...take it for what it is..it's just what i feel...just simple & real.

Bus Stories: R-e-s-p-e-c-t.

Hit-ons on the bus. Lack of tactics never ceases to impress me.

Situation:

I get on the bus, sit down, trying to call my homegirl...
See this dude approach me..Dude gets all up in my face.

[70% are "stage directions" simply because i wasn't talking. excusez-moi.]

Dude: Heyyyyyy!!!
Me: (not looking, dialin number)
Dude: HIIIIIIIII!!!! (sits down behind me, leans over his seat to smell my hair)
Me: - silence - (leans forward to talk to homegirl, and get the boy outta my neck)
Dude: (watchin me, silence, still smelling my hair)
Me: (hangs up the phone, sits chillin on the bus)
Dude: (leans over again) Hiiii baby, I'm sorry i didn't wanna
interrupt your conversation, didn't know you on the phone!!!"
Me: It's cool..
Dude: Maybe you wanna call me too???
Me: Naw, i'm good..
Dude: Whyyyyy?
Me: I got a man, he wouldnt appreciate it. (best excuse ever.)
Dude: Well, I got a girl! But it's whatever!
Me: Well, I'm happy for you..

Dude: Do you really think your man is faithful?
Look at me! I got a girl, but i'm still here!!
You think he's not cheatin hahaha?
Every man cheats!

Me: Well as long as i trust him..[thinking: i should slap the fuck outta you.]
Other than that, it's about what i do. Step off.

Dude: Well, we can still talk!!! I wanna talk on the phone!! You thinkin so far ahead!! [allusion - I just HAVE to be feeling him!!! ]
Me: I have enough friends to talk to, i don't know about you..
Dude: I got a lot of friends, but im always up to making more....
(grins and blows in my neck)

Me: I'm not interested, leave it alone.
Dude: What's wrong?..maybe i can help you!!!
Me: Naw it's all good, thanks..
Dude: I can help, I'm good!!! (gets ready to get off the bus)
Me: Naw , you good, take care.
Dude: Take care boo, good luck with everything!! (unexpected)

- End of conversation -

A bum ( a real crack bum -) who was sittin behind the dude and
obviously watching the conversation gets up... Passes me by..

Bum: RESPECT YOUNG LADY!!!! Goood Job!!!
(claps while leaving the bus)

I bust out laughing. The situation couldn't have gotten any more awkward.

Niam I'm tellin you, it's the bus stories son! LOL
