another racist post

There are 7(or more)chicken places that are withing a two block radius of the AUC. Every Wednesday is fried chicken day in the cafeteria. Last night we were working on our ephemeral project for ADW and why did 30 minutes into rehersal did Deandra run out chasing the Wing Zone car down the street screaming "slow down chicken car!!"?

The shit we do for some chicken. forget wings- chicken around here got wheels.

but thats a side note.

The time has come to leave. I've been watching people here packing up there things into their cars, mom and dads grinning- hugs from their friends. "Hey girl, where you gonna be this summer?" "Imma come and see you"...

Beautiful beautiful spelman, a far cry from my first days here when i sat alone in the cafeteria wondering why i left the warmth and coziness of my family in the bay area. Thats common i hear, few people like this place at first...it grows on you- at least its supposed to.

And it did. January 7th i landed on 350 spelman lane with a thud. It was in the middle of the year, didnt know a damn person. Spent a lot of time wondering how i could feel so lost and alienated in a school of all black women. i didnt give myself time- assumed that becoming a spelmanite would take an hour. Assumed i would have all my friends in the first week making memories.

It kinda happened that way. Mostly didnt. Things kinda even themselves out. I learned this song in church "count your blessings 1 by 1" so here goes some of them

Angel, Alysia, Adraea, Bettina, Chantal, Chris, Delaine, Dorothella, Indy, Intisar, Janell, Jocelyn, Judy, Keisha(all 4 of you), Kyja, Marilyn, Moya, Qrescent, Sarah, Shan/Shan, Tam, Tiona, Uzoamaka..

and im sure i forgot a few so ill add yall later

I promise

But for those people, thanks, yall mean the world to me.

Tear.
