At the airport, Chicago bound. Just saw an old professor from college in the suicide inducing security line. I think we simultaneously recognized each other and realized it wasn’t even worth tryna say hi.
“Hey Dr. McWhorble, remember me, from Fall ‘04 Genetics?….What?….Letting me slide with a ‘C’ caused you to lose faith in the higher education system and inspired your departure from the profession? Oh, well safe flight!”
Luckily we passed each other without even a head nod— awkward situation averted. I just hope we’re not on the same plane.

REMINDER- JAY-Z (Latest “leak” from Blueprint 3 produced by Timbo) 1st impression: Jay sounds like a 6th year college student reminiscing on all the good times had freshmen through junior year.  Somebody should tell Jay, it’s not that the people on campus forgot, it’s just that everybody that remembers your prime has already graduated! I can relate to the feeling but sometimes you just gotta leave campus, bruh. Make some new good stuff and you can be the life of the party all over again. Simply having an album out is a reminder.

Me and my A.A.C. crew (Art as an Agent for Change- Do holla) messed around & made a series of “How to Become Famous” promos for our Poetic Notions event comin up on Saturday, April 18th.  It’s our 2nd annual poetry slam w/ talent to spare!  I’ll be hosting & it’ll be down at GCSU (Max Noah Hall) so come see about us, Middle Ga!  Can’t wait to bring this up to Atlanta.

  • Damion: It must be nice to be finished [w/ higher learning].
  • Me: It is but I always have this nagging feeling that I need to go back.
  • Damion: Hm?
  • Me: This nagging feeling often manifests itself in the form of every older Nigerian I meet.
  • Damion: lol
  • Me: ...at least once a week
