Life ain't too shabby... ain't too shabby at all.

It's a little difficult to give you a good story when there is no drama in my life. Everything has been going pretty good for the last few weeks. So I think I'll just start talking about other peoples' struggles. OMG OMG JK JK MY BFF Jill!! I wouldn't do that. Wouldn' ha' no riiight! So I'll just tell you about the great things that have taken place and try to make it as exciting as possible (with it still being truthful... I don't 'lieve in dat lyin for a good story.)
So... Me, Motown, Bobby, and (making her debut in my blog... pronounced Lee-see) Licci, went to the Atlanta Botanical Garden this Saturday. It was free, because it was the first weekend of the month, and we are all part of a special cult that allows its members to get in certain places for free on the first weekend of every month... Ok... so it's not a cult. But the organization will remain confidential. hehehe!! So anyway... We had the opportunity to see SCULPTUUUUURE... IN... MOOOTIOOOON!! A COLLECTION OF SCULPTURES MOVED BY BIOKINETIC FORCES LIKE WIIIIND... WATEEEER... AAAAND ELECTROMAGNETIC FIIIIELDZZZZ!!! Along with the Sculpture in motion exhibit was the Scarecrow exhibit which showcased the creations from different people and cults... ok they were just organizations in the community. Amongst these scarecrows were displays of all sorts, including a Martha Stewart scarecrow, displays of hood-rich lifestyles, and reeeeads for ya A$$!!! They were quite interesting if I do say so myself. Along with these great exhibits was of course the expected phenomenal vegetation of many species. The part that impressed me most was the tropical vegetation greenhouse. Though it was hot and humid and I dropped my phone, scaring me half to death, my expedition partners and I managed to enjoy it as we walked around with a gait like Lorraine's and produced sound effects to match. We didn't get to see all of it, because they couldn't handle the heat. (I was feeling lite-headed low-key...) So we concluded our expedition and went back to campus, where we finished the evening off with movies and late-night rations. It was a good day. Next time we'll start it sooner though. Cuz we got a little lost on the way to our destination. Tti!!

Life... Sometimes it ain't that bad.

I know! I know! I know! It's been forever and a day since I've done a new post. But it's been up until this point (in the AM hours on my friend's computer) that I have had the time, energy, and spirit to write a new one. Since the last time we met, I have left from my place of summer employment and am back at school for my junior year. And y'all?? Junior year is going soooo much better than the previous years of college. My weeks have not been easy, but hey... it's not supposed to be. The thing is, I've been able to overcome these challenges. At the end of every week I am able to say "I worked my a$$ off and it showed!" This is how it's supposed to be. This is how my life story is supposed to go. The trials this artist goes through are supposed to conclude in victory. So right now... I'm happy. Sometimes life ain't that bad.
