About Me

I am a grounded and focused person in pursuit of my dreams. I am currently in college trying to do big things and maintain my 4.0 (yeah i'ma nerd lol)... I will not let anyone or anything get in the way of me becoming something phenomenal. I believe I control my own destiny and to me that means the sky is the limit ::smile::... *this is what it says about taurus, lets see if it's right*

.. ..so many times we forget our history, we allow the past to be forgotten and because of that our progression as people has been hindered. this ignorance allows us to be continuous victims of institutionalized racism... educate yourself and others... don't allow yourself to be a victim. and if you cant help start the revolution atleast be aware of what is occuring... ignorance can be fatal. damn i'm on that revolution kick!!! all i got say is the revolution will not be televised... are you ready?
