Think back to your classes in high school. You know that quiet chick in every class, the one that never raises her hand or speaks? The one that had little to no friends and wasn’t really on any team or part of any club? Yeah, that was me. Key word: was. See, one of my […]
Month: September 2010
My Bulldog, Demogorgon
Since it’s my senior year, this past summer was fraught with lots of thinking and talking talking talking about THE FUTURE. I can’t and probably wouldn’t be able to render what exactly that will for me but, by the end of the summer, I did establish a working list of resolutions for this school year. […]
The Great Gust of 2010
Gather ’round and let old man Prime tell you the tale of the Great Gust of Wind of 2010! I was deep in my studies at the time on that day of days, September 16th around 6:00pm. Sealed away in my micro fortress of solitude, a practice room in the music building working on my […]
Starting the New Last Year
Hey everyone! How was your summer? Did anyone get to go to the beach and enjoy the hot weather? Well, my summer was intense but very enjoyable! I took 3 classes. Two were retakes and one class was for auditing 1. A couple of my friends were taking the courses with me so that made […]
The Tornado and the Squirrel
Dripping amongst the bent and splintered trees, we stand around a puddle. A dozen or so mobile phones are pointed at the ground, clicking photographs as sympathetic murmurs and gasps escape awestruck mouths. My phone is idle in my hands when I see it writhing on the dampened lawn. It lies on its back, like […]
First Thoughts of Queens College
Only at the very beginning of my freshman year at Queens college, I would think that I would still be feeling my way around. But to my surprise, starting off here was barely an adjustment at all. I feel right at home here at Queens, and I love it. The classes, the professors, the advisors, […]
College Life: Musings of a Freshman
Freedom. That is the word I associate with college. It’s true, though. I’ve never felt so free, so able to be myself. I had been told that the freedom in college would hit me hard, and it’s completely true. It’s the small things that mean the most to me- being able to sit out on […]
From Class to Concert
So this week i didnt have many days of class. My week started off with two classes on Monday nothing to crazy though just the standard day at school until i recieved a text message from one of my close friends and labelmate Pr. The text read “yo has interscope called you yet?” Interscope is […]
The Tingler
First class of the Fall semester, two weeks ago, was like a William Castle movie. William Castle was a gimmicky film director of 1950s era grade-B schlocky pulp horror movies that employed interactive gizmos in the theater to shock the audience. Movies like House on Haunted Hill featured “Emerg-O,” (a floating skeleton over the crowd) […]
i can feel it.
September 2, 2010: I centered my first piece on the wheel. I have bee grinning like a fool ever since. I can’t get myself out of the studio (even on Friday nights!!). All day long I crave to be there. I don’t even know how to describe what I felt. Something like: the god of […]
