Necessary alterations to my character have been made to ensure my success! Really, all it took was a wrench and some enthusiasm. Not only that, I think I've gotten most of what I needed out of my system. Living dangerously, befriending strangers with substances, and forging forwards into adventure. Now I can quietly retreat into the crevices between calender days and go about my daily toil for the most part, overlooked. Quiet is what I need, and quiet chaos is what I'll get.
I say this each semester, but this time I mean it more than the last. This semester, the only thing on my mind is going to be academics. I have no time for social events, romantic endeavors, or personal enjoyment. Watching my GPA soar, building up my networks, and impressing professionals in the field will suffice for what I've sacrificed. What I am doing now is more important that anything else I've ever encountered in my short life. I am building a foundation that is going to last decades for myself and my family. I've always been a juggernaut once determined, but what is to come is not even comparable. I will wreck this shit so bad, a mother would fail to recognize and weap in her own maternal shame for this failure. i will do nothing but gloat while I stand atop the corpse of the Winter '09 semester. It'll be nothing but destruction.
The Skinny

- Detroit, Mi
- I'm in the process. I'd like to expand on that, but it's in the process. I go about my business under the guidance of gut-feelings and universal street signs. I see myself as a very quiet person. Not because I have little to say, only that my abundant thoughts know not where to start. As a child I fantasized about looking through a telescope to give me truth about the world. It amuses me now that what I am doing is looking down a microscope in an effort to reevaluate my holistic position. I am a loner, a drifter, a dreamer.
