So… It’s Thursday afternoon and after being late to every class since school started on Tuesday, I finally managed to be on time to one of my classes, it was the last class of the day which starts at two, but I made it on time and that’s the important thing. Lol.

I’m not going to lie, it feels good o be busy again. I spent a whole month at home sleeping in until 1 p.m. and doing little to nothing during the time I was awake. It’s nice, no lie, but after a while it gets old and boring. I wish I could have found a job and worked a few weeks but some of us were not fortunate enough to find work so I stayed at home “bumming it out.” Now I’m back and experiencing the harsh realities of the morning rush hour. I hadn’t taken a morning class for over a year so I didn’t remember how long it takes to get to school in the morning and how early I’ll have to wake up each morning to make it to class on time; it won’t be fun but I’ll have to do it.

Aside from not being bored, I look forward to coming to school because of a little project I started last semester. I’m a local DJ so last semester I decided to make a mix tape, or a CD mixed by myself, and give it to people as a promotional tool. The turnout was good and many people liked it so I decided to keep doing it. Due to the nature of returning to class, I named the mix tape “Class is in Session” which fits well because I release it on the first day of class and because I call myself Dj Tx Skoolboi, which is misspelled, yes I know.

The semester looks promising. I like my classes so far, my schedule is decent, and my music has been downloaded quite a few times already. Hopefully everything will keep going well and I will soon be writing about success both in class and at work.

That seems about it for now.

Until next post…
