Browngirl Speaks

I am officially a college student….again!!!  I have not been this hyped about school in such a long time.  I’ve gone through my "shoulda coulda wouda" phase.  I’ve had my pity party.  And now I’m back in the game.  Studying what you ask?  African and African American Studies.  I’m attending an online university and I just registered in my first course.  What course is it you ask?  Only what’s probably going to be my most favorite course ever– save for African American Lit.– The Black Woman.  The course materials include Audre Lorde’s Sister Outsider.  This is going to be orgasmic.  Needless to say my current mood is…stoked.

a dear friend reminded me of this product from "back in the day".  i never really forgot it, i just stopped using it.  upon the first use in probably ten years, i couldn’t remember why i had pushed this one to the side because my curls were pleased.  but, then i remembered after i finished my shower: the lingering smell leaves much to be desired.  thank goodness i discovered essential oils…

i’m always telling my best friend i never know what to write about on my blog.  she says just write whatever i feel like sharing.  well, i usually don’t like to expose myself, but…

i’m having an "early life crisis".  i’m stuck in this place of nothingness. i have nothing to show for my life thus far.  i’m at the doorstep of a new decade.  most of my friends have achieved some success professionally, educationally, financially, creatively, or otherwise by now.  i was the person my family had such high hopes and i’ve not delivered, even to myself.  i can’t finish.  it sounds like a pity party.  i just need a chance…
