Ivory09′s Weblog

Dang time has flown by…I remember being excited about going to orientation 4 and now I am about to walk the stage -1 PM on Satruday May, 16, 2009!!! Crazy huh….I have learned a lot over these past 4 years (graduated on time)…From relationships, friends, new experiences, God, LIFE in general…

I was looking back at pictures from Freshmen year…(I’ll post a picture later in the blog) Its crazy how things have changed. I’m looking at the pictures like what happened to her or him, or I dont even talk to that person any more….People say that college is the best time of our lives…I hope not…College has been fun but hopefully life will keep getting better and better…I kept true to my goal: No prison, no babies, (not that I was worried momma*lol) graduate…..

I’ve done a lot at UNT:

Orientation Leader 06

NAACP VP  – went to detroit Summer 07′ for the NAACP Convention and saw this Black guy by the name of Obama Speak about running for President…heard of him

Pledged Alpha Phi Alpha – won President of the Year and Chapter of the Year 08-09

Homecoming Court 08′ – Prince

Eagle Ambassador – for 2 years

Step Shows, Parties, Traveling from city to city –  including LA this month, Atlanta in June for the Greek picnic, and New Orleans in July for my fraterntiy’s National convention

I know it has been a minute, but I’m back in the blog game!!!

I saw Wolverine: Origins…. It was cool…Gambit is one of my favorite characters so I really didnt like him too much but hey…thats life…Sabretooth was done very well..But it made me think, if I had a superhero power what would it be (that i already havent seen before)…I would want to be able to teleport and my fighting attack would be to make things heavier, like if somebody was about to hit me, I would make their arms heavier, or make my own body heavier so it could be stronger..something like that…what would YOUR power be? try to come up with something new and post it….

What it’s like to date a Taurus Man:

The Taurus man is very sensible, he is not the man to sweep you off your feet. He is practical and down to earth. He wants a high quality woman, not a woman for one night. He will survey cautiously before he makes his approach. He is very patient when it comes to a relationship. He will survey the situation and make sure the woman has something to offer him, before he offers himself. Taurus man is a romantic man, he will put his woman on a pedestal, protect her and cherish her. Once he has chosen his woman, he will be very generous, loyal and faithful. He is not a boring man, but he is not for the woman who craves adventure and excitement. Taurus man is for the woman who craves stability and comfort, he is an incredible provider and is a very fine choice as a partner for the right woman. He is in it for the long haul so commitment is no problem for this man.

Favorite Commercials - Geico and McDonalds:

Hey everybody, I know it has been a good minute, but im finally back with another blog. This is my last semester at good ol’ UNT, and I am about to go out with a BANG (hopefully a good bang….lol)

My homegirl Tyondra showed me two dances from ATL on youtube. Swag Surfin and Whoopin Rico (you can check them out below). Swag surfin the song is cool ,but the dance seems a little lame……they probably feel the same way about the Stanky Leg lol. Look up Swag Surfin on youtube and tell me what you think - I couldnt find a less explicit version for this UNT endorsed Blog….

Check this out:

P.S. Go to the 3 rd Annual Touch of Gold Party Thursday, January 22 at Hattricks brought to by way of the ‘Notorious” Eta Epsilon Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha and the “Ferocious” Phi Gamma Chapter of Omega Psi Phi!!!

Whats up World? Did you hear the news? MICHAEL JACKSON the King of Pop is outta control sick. Jackson’s biographer Ian Halperin has been quoted saying that the pop star is suffering from a fatal inherited diease that has left him increasingly frail. Mr Halperin was quoted in the Sun saying: “He needs a lung transplant, but may be too weak to go through with it. He also has emphysema and chronic gastrointestinal bleeding, which his doctors have had a lot of trouble stopping.

“It’s the bleeding that’s the most problematic part. It could kill him.”

Mr Halperin alleged Jackson, 50, had developed an alpha-1 anti-trypsin deficiency, in which sufferers lack a protein that protects the lungs. Treatment includes a lung transplant.

Come on y’all, have a heart. He made: Bad, Beat it, Billie Jean (Moon Walk), THRILLER, not to mention the Jackson 5 (thats another ball game right there haha)

Most underrated Michael Jackson song:

Funny MJ Pepsi commercial featuring Carlton Banks:

Hey Everyone, I love this time of year because I am out of school, and I love Christmas. I still have to work, but thats not all too bad. Right now I’m getting my graduate applications prepared to be sent off for physical therapy school, so wish me luck. By the way, I graduate May 16, 2009 at 1 PM.

My Grad School Choices are:

1. UT Southwest
2. Howard
3. St. Augustine – in Florida
4. Angelo State

SOMETHING RANDOM:

Top Rated Musicals haha:

1. The Wiz (All Black cast of Wizard of OZ featuring Michael Jackson and Diana Ross)
2. Grease
3. West Side Story
4. Sound of Music
5. Sweeney Todd: Demon Barber of Fleet St. – Johnny Depp (video)

P.S. I think that the T-Payne and Kanye West Cd’s are overrated and are not that tight AT ALL. Kanye is creative, but I am personally not feeling it overall (there are a few tracks that are alright). T-Payne made every track sound the same and be uptempo besides his singles and a “ringleader man”. The Ludacris cd is pretty good though here are two songs:

I expect to see a lot comments on this one folks….. If you know me personally than you already know that I think Batman is the greatest superhero.  He has the gadgets, the girls, he is human so he gets hurt (unlike most superheros), he has my main man Alfred, he has to use brawn & intelligence, and he has the best villians like the Penguin, Mr. Freeze, Poison Ivy, Scarecrow, and my favorite villian The JOKER…shot out to Heath Ledger and Jack Nicholson .  Hopefully, Johhny Depp will play Riddler in the 3rd Batman.

The X-men and my mother Also deserve a little shout out too….

Dark Knight DVD release December 9th

P.S. Superman is very Lame…yep, I said it….lol

CHECK THIS OUT:

Well that beautiful time of year has come once again…..Thanksgiving….I will be eating real meals starting tonight lol. I will be celebrating Thanksgiving in Shreveport, LA….sooooo AS SOON as I get off I’m dipping out and kicking it with the fam. UNT needs to start just letting us have the full week off, but Winter Break is longer this year so I can’t complain too much. Hopefully, those Dallas Cowboys can put up another victory tomorrow against the Seahawks; that would be the icing on the cake.

FOOD For Thought:

Also, has anybody been watching these McDonald’s commercials lately. They are definetly targeting the Black audience. Even when they have cartoon characters, they are normally African American. But this last R&B commercial about the 10 pc McNuggets is just ridiculous. Do Black people eat more Mcdonald’s? Don’t get me wrong, their chicken selects do go hard haha, but most of friends go McDonald’s because of that good ol’ dollar menu not because of the quality of food…..

This is Funny Video for my girl Jackie!!!
