Well, I have finally made a LiveJournal thanks to my friend, David! Thanks David! You are awesome!! I really don't know what to and what not to write in this journal as others will be able to see my feelings! OMG! lol. I guess I will just write what I feel and mean what I say. Just talk from the heart I guess. So, here goes nothing.
I am just sitting in my Neuroscience class today and very bored. I HATE NEUROSCIENCE! And that goes to show in my first exam grade which I received yesterday. I knew I would have made the lowest grade in that subject. Damn the brain! But you gotta do what you gotta do. I know I want to be a doctor and I KNOW I don't want to become a neurosurgeon so I will just get through this darn course and move on with my career. That shouldn't be that hard right? I never pay attention in class and maybe that's the reason I didn't do so well on the exam. But I will fall asleep if I pay attention! I know it!
Well, yesterday was a very weird day. My family and I were just talking about battered women only for my cousin to call me and tell me that her boyfriend beat her. WHAT IN THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THESE MEN! I just do not understand nor will I EVER understand a man beating on a woman. And don't get me wrong, I know people deserve second chances since everyone makes mistakes. Lord knows that I am a clear example of that. BUT, this guy has not been treating her right for YEARS. I do not understand why she stayed with his things long from the get go. But only time will tell if this is the last straw and if she will go back to him or not. It's so weird because the ones that get beaten are the ones that take the same beating man back so casually. But, I guess that comes from fear. She told me she changed her locks and his brother came get his clothes so he should not be able to come back. But I am PRETTY SURE he was very upset when he found out she pressed charges. She said she thinks she overheard him crying AFTER he put his hands on her. And he should feel very bad! I just do not understand this at all. I just wish someone would be these men's asses to show them what they deserve! They feel like they are bigger than the woman so they can beat her, but what if another man bigger than him came along to beat his ass! Maybe that would teach him. I just hope she moves on with her life because she could do bad all by herself. I want what's best for her and I do not want my Godchild in that kind of environment. Children like that get scarred for life and I love my family TOO MUCH to be put through such turmoil. Children are very impressionable and he deserves the best.
I called my dad early this morning and left a voice mail on his phone apologizing for what I did last weekend. I have not talked to him since then and frankly, I was afraid to call him because I did not know what to say or where to start. But I finally built up the courage to call him and felt so much better after doing so. I let him know I was sorry and that I never meant to hurt him in anything I may have done to hurt him. Now, I just sit and wait to see if he will call me back and if so, what he will say when he does. I really am nervous to talk to him but it has to happen right?
So, yesterday one of my friends gave me the link to Letoya (from the "initial" Destiny's Child) performing on Soul Train. Here it is:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2aphdKZ39EWhat I don't understand is why is she clowning herself? I know she will not sale close to as many as the group or Beyonce did so. The song is "mediocre" and I am pushing it when I say that. I heard about her coming out a long time ago and kept on wondering when she would do so. Only time will tell how successful she will and may be.
Until next time,
Doctor D
