The Update!!

          Omg I have finally returned to the blog circuit after like weeks it feels like. So much has happened in my life over the last month and then I didn't have Internet access until the middle of last week but anyway here I am and I have somethings to tell you guys!

        OK first off I have been doing some thinking over the time that I haven't been able to blog while being bombarded with questions  and worries(which BTW is quite entertaining) by my really good friend who has started her own blog (goldsequins-blackleather.blogspot.com) that I find amazing so far and is only going to get better I'm sure. I think that I want to change up the topics of my blog a little and cover more things about myself and my experiences as well as fashion and other related things. I think when I first started this blog all I wanted to cover was forward men's fashion, which I love, but I never gave any insight into who I was and what makes me fall in love so much with these designs.  So yea long story short, because I feel like I'm rambling, I will be changing up the topics a little more than I have in the past.
 
SO I have officially started my life as an out of state college student!! I moved from my hometown of Cincinnati, OH to Atlanta, GA about two weeks ago now. I have never been this far away from home on my own, I mean I do have family here but still. I go to a school called AIU which stands for American Intercontinental University where I'm majoring in Fashion Marketing. I had my first week of classes last week and I found them to be interesting to say the least. I pretty much like all of my teachers so far because they all seem very REAL. My program chair is a riot she reminds me alot of my highschool sales teacher. From the orientation that my family and I sat through I got really excited to be here and plan to take full advantage of the resources and opportunities that the school has, and they have PLENTY.
 
As I'm sitting here in my apartment listening to Erykah Badu and wondering why the hell my roommates sleep ALL day, its almost noon, I'm realizing how truly not used to having roommates I am and I have two. Move in day kind of set the tone for what this living arrangement would be like. Being who I am I tried introducing myself to everyone, one of my roommates totally rejected my approach, we will call him roommate A. Through a conversation later on with my other roommate, lets call him roommate B, I found out that roommate A was homophobic, oh fuck here we go. I thought in this day and age when you go to college encountering homos would be something you would just get ready to deal with. You know, I love how some people always assume that the gays want them *NEWSFLASH* they don't! So for now I play nice. I did have a third roommate but I think he is moving to the other complex.
 
I have gone out on the town once since I've been here, I was beginning to worry I wouldn't have time to get all jazzy and have some fun. That night was quite an experience for many different reasons, I did enjoy myself though. As usual I felt over dressed and did notice that the locals club attire is a bit different from what I saw back home. The atmosphere was definitely what I would call hood, and I loved it! Every now and then I feel the need to go out and dance to some ratchet ass music in a club full of smoke, naked strippers, and interesting fashion choices (what I'm sure some think of mine). I would like to experience the other side of the Atlanta nightlife at some point as well but for now that night will suffice, don't want to get too caught up in partying and lose sight on what I came down here for. here is a pic of what I wore, the blurriness is caused by all the smoke in the air oh and excuse the tag on the belt, it was the test picture before I left haha.

 
Well guys until the next post im off to get some of this homework done, TTYS!
