Today while sitting in Advanced Online Media, I had the sudden feeling that I hadn't learned one useful damn thing this whole time I've been in college! I became angry, I mean I'm listening to a visiting professor talk about things we should, but dont know about? WTF? Why am I paying so much darn money to learn 1/3 of what I have to know to compete? And when I say compete, I also mean globally. Why am I sitting in 400-level classes unaware of basics? Why are most of my professors suddenly ex-reporters or camera men? Why are my textbooks costing more than a down payment on a Ford Focus? "Required" Textbooks that professors write, barely get cracked open and then are "discontinued" so you only get $4 back if anything? Why is tuition constantly going up? Why am I so afraid that I don't know what I'm supposed to know? Why do I feel like my university sign should have a -Mart ending? You know, like ASU-Mart, or UofM-Mart?
Why do I feel like I'm on an assembly line like a 5 ft. tall Mrs. Potato Head with people attaching parts to me that they think I should have, but the parts are always mis-matched so when it's time to come out of the box all of my fake, half-heartedly placed attachments will fall right off because they weren't carefully considered if it was a good fit or observed or placed with care in mind.
I'm out.

I Don't Want A Man-Boy!
Listen up. According to statistics in this country, I may never get married. I don't pay attention to those statistics, but I do pay attention to the reason that could happen; Man-Boys.
If you don't know what a Man-Boy is, then you probably are one of them or putting up with one.
I'm a woman of a certain age. I grew up with my grandfather telling me how beautiful I was and all the great things little girls need to hear, so a Man-Boy telling me I'm beautiful is a compliment, but not a ticket to ride.
Correction, a Man-Boy doesn't use the word 'beautiful,' he uses words like "sexy" and "hot" or compliment a body part.
If you cannot dress like a grown man, don't even approach! Cornrows, while nice for some, is not something I care for in a grown man as well as; sagging pants, sneakers, jerseys, baseball caps, gold teeth, no job, living at home with mom, no car, wannabe rapper or promoter, plays video games, swears a lot, can't look me in the eyes, lying, clubbing, drinking/drugs, felon, not educated, never wants to be held accountable and of course only brings his dick to "the table."
When did so many men decide to be triflin? Why do they think we're supposed to accept that?
I recently had a "scare" with a Man-Boy. It didn't take long (One Week) to figure out that I had a loser on my hands. This Man-Boy wasn't very good at communicating and when I say that, I mean he never called, would only text me and always had an excuse. Excuse me, but I went through that in the 9th grade, so you know what? Unh-unh!
Man-Boys need not apply. I don't have a problem with being single because I'm okay with me and I'm not going to roll it in powdered sugar because it sucks at times, but the peace I have is better than the drama a Man-Boy brings any day!
Maybe I won't ever get married, but since when does that validate my entire existence? I'll never lower my standards Man-Boy, so you better man up.
