I've been patiently waitin' to blow...Laides and Gentlemen welcome to the Everett Douglas Show!

7:04PM

Today was a pretty good day. I went back to Zion Hope for the second time in two years. It felt like the first time cause last I walked up in there late. I was some what surprised by the way I was recieved. I got a lot of love today. Of course there was a good handful who didn't speak but who gives a...I was kinda surprised that some people are holding on to anomosity toward me after two years. I mean come on, I didn't do anything to you. Your mind is gone on something a lie. Maybe in your mind you are mad at me because I didn't address them. But hey, I'm too big and good looking to pay attention to the rumors. Actually, I saw the peson who got it all started sitting one row over from me. I know she was surprised to see me there, and her little friend too. WHAT? Oh? They must have thought I was gonna come back to The Hope with a sad face looking like I just got out of rehab. Pipe in my mouth maybe? Ha. There is enough for your whole crew to swing on. Anyway, the message at church was good today. It was different from your typical Easter Sunday sermon. I didn't leave church feeling the same way I came in. I felt good. I was feeling good anyway, but I felt better. Knowledge of your faith is a beautiful thing. Speaking of beautiful sights, I talked with Jaime this afternoon before I went to my grandmother's house for dinner. Lord knows my granny can cook. Anyway, Jai and I had a good convo. She is so thoughtful and sweet. She was happy that I won the election. She even gave me mad ideas to bring to the group. Well, it's bout time to ride back to school. I got a load of clothes to see about too. Holla at the kid...

Elected on Friday...thought about what the hell I just got myself into on Saturday.

Dang homie...I've been so busy this week. I got sick during the middle of the week. My allergies whipped my tooter real good. Then the allergy medicine made me sick and gave me a nice rash on my arm. It's gone now though. But I threw up couple times during class. That was actually kinda cool. Anyway, we worked on television news in the studio this past week. Ya know I had to hold it down. I got threw off my focus when a classmate started laughing. I was doing good though. I also worked on my interview things too. This beautiful young lady named Regina gave me some of her time to help a young dude out. Even though it was seriously hot in the office, the mic barely worked, and we were both being silly it was pretty good. I can do it over again and maybe I can get her to come to the studio this time. On a more serious note, I was elected African American Student Association President this week. Whoa. (crickets...) Why lie? I'm nervous and I got a lot of work on my hands. I don't understand how the organization got like this, but I know who had a big part in getting the group that way, and that clown doesn't even have one chance to cross me. However, I've been getting a lot of calls and moral support from students, staff, and faculty. One guy stopped me in the cafe and told me he voted for me simply he believed I was a young man of principle and I wasn't in the race for a show. If he knew how much that meant to me at that moment. Right now I am really focused on finishing this semester strong. Then getting this thing back on the right track. It's funny, cause my mind went blank. I had so much to write because I didn't get a chance to write this week. I am so tired. I didn't even go to sleep Wensday night. I tried, but it just didn't happen. That happens about once every year in the Spring. Anyway, I guess I should roll since my mind went blank. Holla at the kid...EL PRESIDENTE! LOL!

Only thing I ever lost I couldn't find was time

2:29AM - I...

These day are too short. But I am enjoying each day. Even the hardships. I know lately it seems like I have been speaking in metaphors but sometimes you don't want to share all your thoughts, even in a private journal. My grandmother told me it's not good for your left hand to always know what your right hand is doing. It makes sense when you think about it. Anyway, the work is piling up but I say just bring it. Audra and I have been getting along for a change. It's okay thing when we can conversate and not fight. I think she is finally understanding me as a person. But unfortunately she still doesn't understand herself and the world around her. She needs someone to tell her how to feel. It's all a growing process, but we have grown apart. I hope this comes to a peaceful end. We will see what happens. Right now I gotta do this thing with my education first. Once I get established then I will start talking about that marriage stuff, but with who? HMMMMM? LOL! Whatever durty. We know who it won't be with. Thats another 21 questions. LOL! (Inside joke) Other than that, not too much has gone on. Beef is still beef, but beef is what a some have between their teeth. I'm something like a grown man, I know red and white when I see it, call it was it. But ain't nobody stepped to me yet, and those who run their mouth, do so at a distance. I can't do nothing but laugh. They can't even peep how I run mine. I'm gonna succeed and get there no matter what, and if I get elected African American Student Association President, I'm gonna continue to be me, and push hard to until the organization is the best it can be. This is something I really want, and I have a vision for it. I am praying that it all works out. Stay tuned. Anyway, my projects for classes are turning out real nice. I just have to get them edited this week and I can start doing some big things, and making big grades fo sho. Well, I need to write a letter and study. Holla at the kid...

Thats what I'm talking bout'

2:30PM - Feeling' Good
I feel like I got a lot accomplished today. I'm actually taking the time to get ready for tomorrow. I do that anyway, but it's 2:30 and I am doing this. I would normally wait until about 7 or 8 tonight. But I want to relax tonight. I'm feeling good about myself these days. Maybe I should splurge a little. lol! Naw. No extra dough to to do that. Anyway, my birthday was good. I got a ton of phone calls. As early as 6 in the morning. I was like dang homie. I'm gonna take the time to celebrate this weekend. Not sure what I am gonna do though. I have a ton of work but I ain't stressed. My sinuses and allergies are hurting me though. I've sneezed so much to the point I don't have to do any sit ups. Ain't nothing to run on about today. Jaime is back home again, she had to go back to the hospital but she is feeling much better these days. She sounds better too. Soon she will get her appetite back and be back on the grind. My cousin Andre from Atlanta will be here next week. The kid is a trip. I love him to death though. Everywhere I want to go he wants to go. Handsome too, just like me. But all us Simpson men are. And no, not OJ. Well, like I said I got a ton of work, but I rather do this than be a bum fo sho. Holla at the kid...
