Hi, for those that haven't read my previous attempt at a live journal, my name is Thomas. I'm just a young black man trying to make something of myself. I goto school full-time at BCCC on Scholarship and I work part-time at ATsystems' Davis street moneyroom.
My life in a nutshell is kinda complicated right now. As far as my romantic life goes, yes I am taken (sorry ladies). My dream is to live long and prosper and do the damn thing proper through the media known as Hip-hop. Yes,I've been rapping for five years now unprofessionally, and I dream of getting a mainstream record deal. So right now, my life consists of School, my music, my Girlfriend and Work.
Let me explain this rap shit first. I started in highschool just ciphering and then I found the internet, built a home studio and began working on tracks. I've put together three CD's so far and right now I'm in the process of working on a demo and beginning a press-kit to shop myself to labels everywhere. As far as school goes, I'm in my second year at BCCC holding down a 3.3 GPA and working on getting my A.A. in the May. When It comes to school, I'm a natural. I just enjoy myself and make the grade, plain and simple. My job is easy enough. I get paid 9 dollars an hour to count bags of money from armored trucks. It's so simple at times that the job does itself. As far as my girlfriend goes, she's amazing. I find it hard to believe that she's with me now, at least after what weve been trough. I haven't been the best boyfriend as far as the small things are concerned and I'm working on that, however I almost lost her for good when I broke up with her three weeks ago after an argument. Just today after three weeks of me begging to have her back and begging her to forgive my mistake of ever leaving her, we got back together. I wish I could explain to you all reading this how happy I am. We've been together for four months and I wasn't trying to lose something like that over BS.
For now, I'm still at home with my parents and my younger sister. I live on the Eastside of Baltimore, but I spent most of my life on the Westside. No car right now, and maybe not for a long time seeing as though just two weeks ago the transmission went up on my Galant. So for now I'm on the bus.
This is my second attempt at a live journal, my first one only lasting 4 entries, stretched across a month and a half. I'mma try to be WAY better this time around and keep yall better updated on this hell I call my life. My personal rules, since this is a public journal are no names. My name is the only one anyone will know unless they know me personally. This is a public journal and I wouldn't want anyone mad at me for writing about them, or putting their shit out there, so I'll just use pronouns for the sake of privacy. I hope that everyone enjoy's reading my life unfold, and I ask but one thing, and that is that everyone be open-minded when reading this, because this journal is gonna contain all the things I am thinking and that means even the things I would never share with anyone. Hello everyone and welcome back into my life.
