ABOUT ME

I used to wonder why Lucy liked those songs so much. You know what I mean? She sits in the dark and listens and cries. Music does that to her...I didn't understand for a long time. But I do now. The sad songs are a safe hurt. It's a diversion. It's controlled. And maybe it helps you imagine that real pain will be like that. But it's not. Lucy knows that, of course. You can't prepare for real pain. You just have to let it rip you apart.

Interests

I love reading. Especially, books by Cornell West, Michael Eric, Bell Hooks, James Baldwin, Octavia Butler, Toni Morrison, Ralph Ellison, Stockley Carmichael, Huey P Newton, Ivan Van Sertima, and slew of other Africans writer, rhetoricians, activist, novelist and scientists.

In my spare time I like to watch anime and old kung fu movies. (LOL)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Last year one of my best friends and I, went out in the beginning of the spring back in my lake. It was frozen but we did not know that it was only about half an inch thick ice and could be broken. I ran across the entire lake, like a fruit cake and my friend was to scared to go halfway, so he went back while we went seperate ways, all of a sudden a hear a help help! Im drowning! scream and I run back and my best friend is stuck in the freezing lake. He couldnt get out because the ice was to slippery to grab on, and the water was deep, about 10 feet by the shallow area, and 35-90 feet in deep area. I ran for him and luckily I saved his life. This is one of the most AMAZING things I have ever done in my life, be a HERO.
