I wish somebody would have told me that as a freshman at Howard I would have to go through a process. They woulda got their feelings hurt. Thats the problem with Howard, everything you do gotta be a damn process. I feel like my **** is getting hazed everytime i gotta stand in line for a validation sticker or go to the A building about something. If you are itching for a process, join an organization. And... yall leave DJ Bout it alone! He was the only one playing that real undergound A-town Sh*t up in DC and he not even from the South ( i dont think). he aight with me. The only thing thats really "out" at Howard IMHO is being hella thirsty. **** that claim they from this or that city when they really from the burbs. Girls that wanna be Americas Next Top model walkin up the hill from the Quad in stillettos.. **** that KNOW they aint hard talkin about they thugs, or worse, they that crips. why do we supposedly have HU gang bangers? GANG MEMBERS DONT GO TO COLLEGE! alright, im stepping off my soap box. Wait, one more thing! Remember when, and i think it was this year or the year before, when it was supposed to be a big **** fight between drew and carver on the yard? And when they both met up on the yard what happened? **** started playing music and dancin and Sh*t. All im sayin is keep it real, if you hard then u hard, if you scared say u scared, and if you wanna be the number one hot girl then why the hell are you at Howard? I thought folks came to college to get an education. People is too caught up in tryin to have this image when they get up here that they not focused and end up flunkin the f**k out. I know college is the time that you "find yourself" but i think **** is doing a little to much searchin and just need to embrace whoever they already are without trying to be someone they not.
PREACH!!!
