The repose of sleep refreshes only the body. It rarely sets the soul at rest. The repose of the night does not belong to us. It is not the possession of our being. Sleep opens within us an inn for phantoms. In the morning we must sweep out the shadows. ~Gaston Bachelard

Another Invite...
Another girl who goes to Meharry has asked me out on a date. She wants to see a movie tonight. I don't know what it is but its been happening a lot lately. I've been gettting a lot of attention from the opposite sex. CL says its because I have a glow. Maybe so.
Life of a Graduate Student
Sometimes I love being a grad student and sometimes not so much. This post is for one of those things that I hate. I get a monthly stipend to attend grad school. Great right? No. Not so much. I only get like 1700/month. Which sounds great until you realize that you live the life of a regular job working adult. Rent, food, utilities, car note, car insurance, phone, etc. 1700 goes by very quickly considering these factors. On top of that we are not allowed to work. Shit sucks. Anyway i'm done complaining about my financial situation because I realize that it could be a lot worse.

Catching up with old flames
So I had a conversation with CL about wondering what happened to old flames and friends who seemed to drop off the face of the earth. After our conversation it got me wondering about two old flames. One is a girl named Mari whom I used to go out with my senior year in high school and she was my prom date. The other is a girl I haven't thought about in a long, long time. Her name is Dominique. She was my first real crush. I went to elementary school and middle school with her and I liked her the whole time. We went to different high schools because she ended up going to a private school.
So I ended up googling both of them. I found out that Mari works for the Enviornmental Protection Agency. So I emailed her to see how she was doing in life since I haven't talked to or seen her since like my freshman year in college. She emailed me back and let me know that she was doing fine. She moved from Oxon Hill to Alexandria and she has a four-year old daughter. It was good to hear from her.
I ended up emailing Dominique on classmates.com because I couldn't find any other contact info for her. Hopefully she contacts me because I'm really curious to see how she has been doing. I haven't seen her since the 8th grade (circa 1995).

Hypocrite
One thing about CL that I really don't like is that she gets mad at me for things that she does herself. For instance she doesn't like when I'm on the phone with her and people are in the background making noise. Her reasoning is that I could walk away from the noisy area. I agree but she does it herself at times which really irks me. She also doesn't like it when I'm preoccupied and don't pay attention to her while I'm on the phone. Yet whenever she is on the phone and watching tv she doesn't pay attention to things that I say. I know this because I bring up things that I mentoin and she will have no idea what I'm talking about.
Today I am really pissed. Reason being because of this blog. When I first started this blog CL had a link to it so she could read it. I didn't mind but then I asked her one day what her link was and she said I couldn't read it. So me being me I changed the link to my blog because I didn't think it was fair that she gets to read my thoughts and I not get to read hers. So anway she got mad because she found out that I let other people read my blog and not her. Her main reason was that she didn't let anyone read her blog and it wasn't just a slight against me. My reason was that no matter what its not fair if I don't get to read hers and she gets to read mine. She made me feel really bad about it. Told me that I don't take into account things that she tells me.
So today I found that she gave her blog link to someone else a while ago and he's been reading her blogs. She said she didn't remember telling him about the link. This really made me mad. She made it seem like the only reason she created a blog on blogger is because she didn't want anyone reading her thoughts. And now I found out that that wasn't true. Shit pisses me off. She really made me feel bad about giving my link to other people and not her. SMH.

At the Gym Yesterday
First let me say i'm gonna cancel my YMCA membership at the end of the month. My reason???? Well one of my friends got her locker broken into yesterday and her car and house keys were stolen along with her debit card and braclet. To make matters worse on Sunday eight lockers were cut and broken into. I don't understand how someone can do that without someone seeing them. Also the Meharry gym is now open so I can use their facilities for free. I don't see the point in paying for something that I can have for free.
So yesterday I went to lift and shoot around for a little bit. I had fun. As I was leaving I saw one of the bruhs that I'm cool with. I talked to him for a little bit. Catching up since I haven't seen him since before the holiday. As we were talking I noticed one of the girls that is in my program on one of the bikes.
After I finished talking to him I stopped to tell her to be careful with her stuff and the breakins. As I was walking away she called me back and asked me if I had a girlfriend. I said "No". She said she thought that I was a really nice and she thought I was attractive. She then asked me out to dinner. I told her that I was flattered but I'm not trying to date anyone right now. The fact that she told me that threw me for a loop because I never thought she would ever be attracted to me. Oh well.

You've got to be kidding me...
So this is my third blog entry today. So as you might have guessed i'm bored in the lab. So anyway the other day I get a text that goes something like: "Its my birthday and I really want to feel you inside of me."
First of all, you and I don't have that type of relationship. Second, if I don't fuck with you like that why would you send that type of text message. Anyway that text didn't require a response on my part. I just wonder sometimes where some people's minds are.
Had I been a fucked up dude, I would have just had sex with her and not fucked with her anymore.

My weekend.
So this past weekend I had so much fun. I went out Saturday to this spot called the Place. DJ Drama and the Kappas were having a party. We got there around 10 and the line was around the building. Since it was cold outside we decided to do VIP. They tried to charge us $50 a person. I was like yeah right and luckily I knew one of the Kappas at the door and my man who promotes parties in Nashville. We only had to pay $40 for 3 of us. I had a bunch of fun. I also found out that I would get approached by a lot more females if I wasn't so cocky. I don't think and never thought that I was cocky but that's food for thought I guess.
Saturday the Deltas had their founder's day celebration at the Place. I had a bunch of fun. Saw a lot people that I knew. A lot of bruhs that I haven't seen in a minute. We partied and drank. When Atomic Dog came on I set owt a bunch of hops. I realized that I might not be in shape like I thought I was because I was really out of breath. After the club one of my homeboys got into an altercation with this Kappa who basically overstepped his boundaries. But besides that I had a great time
Sunday I didn't get up until noon. I then watched football over my boy Kurt's house. It was a good day for upsets. San Diego beat Indianapolis and New York beat Dallas. After that we watched the Sarah Conner Chronicles, which I thought was really good (all i need is another tv show to add to my list lol).
