Controversial with no chaser.

Everything that will be posted below is from my mini-rant I had on my personal twitter account. What triggered it? A girlfriend. Or as I should say ex girlfriend of a known college basketball player. She was on a mini-rant via twitter about love, relationship etc. So, it had be revisit my feelings on a situation (women who date/d fraternity guys). There's a lot that comes with the territory if he's an undergrad in college & some don't grow out of that college life & what comes with it. Anyways in quotations is what I tweeted.

"It amazes me how male athletes, entertainers, baller$, frat guys will let a good woman slip away."
"Everyone sees it but them (the hims). She doesn't want you for your money, letters, but for you!"
"I don't get it."
"We ain't perfect. But dealing with you & the groupies is a task. Oh well..."
"Not to say their not good (boyfriends). Because obviously that's the case (Since we dated them). But the ending results. Yea."


-someone chimes in-
"RT me: Everyone sees it but them (the hims). She doesn't want you for your money, letters, but for you! (One of my followers says): yes girl...say it"


"A certain associate of a college known ball player sparked my rant. We get looked at as the "bad guys" when we hurt from the aftermath."
"You don't know our situation so have a seat. & to the homewreckers. Good luck. Because not everybody is nice ::shrug:: lol"
"I know chicks from all categories I mentioned that had been holding their man down for 4+ yrs."
"I'm so lowkey when it comes to my personal/love life. No one knew who I was dating. All you needed to know was that he treated me well.."
"Loved me for me & supported me in all shapes & forms."


-There was a gentlemen who was Greek (fraternity) that would chime in & give his opinion, that led to responses like...
"Like I've said before. No one knows but those in the situation. An explanation does little justice"


Sigh...

Old Post: My Top 5 Things I Miss About College

1. Free gym membership- With me doing this fitness challenge and trying to stay fit and active 5-6 days out of the week, I never would have guessed that I would miss the gym the way I do. And not only that, the perks of being a student & living on campus is being able to go to the gym anytime and for free. That gym had all of my faves (elliptical, treadmill, bikes, and the lovely sauna).

2. Free food- Yes! Free food. Anything from nachos, pizza, energy drinks, and candy. Although that would defeat my purpose to a healthier lifestyle but I do miss oh so much. You can't beat free food.

3. Events- Everything from Apollo Nights, Open Mic sessions, Gospel events, Greek parties, and different guest speakers. I won't forget the day that Angela Davis (look her up) came to speak at my school. A true activist indeed. Love her.

4. Random Conversations With Roommates- Sigh, I miss my roommates. We would have random convos about  guys, school work, any and everything. All it took was one of us coming out of our room to take a break from studying and sit in the living for 5mins and another would come out of their room to see what's going on. 10mins later all three of us would be in the living room having a 1-2hr conversation. Lol, it never failed. Their company is what I miss the most.

5. Office Hours- Lastly, office hours with some of my favorite professors/counselors. I started a great bond with my professors and counselors my Freshmen year in college. I wasn't afraid to go visit them, and ask questions. If I didn't ask about something, then I wouldn't know the answer to the question. At times I would just drop by to have a brief conversation with them. I may not have been known on my campus, but if I needed a letter of recommendation letter from one of them, I would have one without a doubt. Those are the type of relationships you want to build while you're in college. Network and build relationships.

Since I've been transitioning from college life to reality, it's been interesting and a bit laid back (something I'm not use to). I miss the little things that comes with being an undergraduate (lets be clear on that) lol. Graduate school is a whole other ball game. And speaking of graduate school, I'm still undecided if, when, and what I want to go to school for. I have an idea but not really sure. Anywho, take care!

I would love to hear what you think below....
