Hey!

Sorry for the hiatus :-( Classes have started, so don't expect me to post too much. It might be twice a week...or less.

So what have I been up to lately?

Well...packing, unpacking, african party, friends, church...pretty standard stuff.

Thanks for everyone's advice, but I guess I didn't need it, as things have a way of sorting themselves out. I actually have quite a bit to tell you about, but I feel like the story is not over yet, so we'll have to wait until Friday to know how the whole situation ends.

Some things that you might be interested to know is that I finally told A parent (my mom) about my AA boyfriend. She wasn't that happy...but she wasn't upset. She just wanted to make sure that it's not serious, and I assume that she is not telling my dad about it. She gave me the impression that he would be very very very upset. Drama surrounds that Ghanaian guy...which is the story that you all will have to wait for. And to clear things up...I hope that no one thinks that I am cheating on my bf, because I'm not. Like...when I kissed the other guy, we were on break...and we're actually on a break now. Classes have started...and I don't need ANY distractions. Well...maybe I could do with a couple lol.

Anyways, I've got e-mails and stuff to send out, meetings to attend, and I room that's not yet clean lol. I'll Talk to you all later! Take care and bye!

Advice

Sooo...

Life is going horribly wrong for me at this point. Well not HORRIBLY wrong, but it's just different. And let's just say that I can't really cope with it. So right now, I'm just going to ask for advice.

So since I last updated everyone, a LOT of things have changed. For the simple rundown of it all....
*Boyfriend and I decided to take a break
*The Ghanaian guy and I kissed...and got pretty close. Emotionally that is...not physical. But we have kissed...a lot!
*Boyfriend and I got back together after a day of being upset and crying.
*I also got sick and had to be on medication for the past week.
*Needless to say....the combination of all this and the fact that I had a third test and a final for my class resulted in a not so pleasing grade.

Now here is the major dilemma...I like both of the guys. I mean...I love my boyfriend. But I know at this point that my parents would never accept him. Though they did meet him and have a good conversation with him when I was moving out. This Ghanaian guy...he's cute, sweet, just a really nice guy. But of course, parents also met him move out day and they had stuff to say as well. My mom of course kept asking me about our relationship...like what kind of friends we are. She knows I would never admit to being in a relationship with anyone to her...at least not for a while. So anyways...my mom was like...stay away from Ghanaian men, they are loose. They don't stay in marriages (which ironically enough his parents are divorced).

And then part of me also tells me to forget about them both and just focus on school. I decided that I was still interested in going to medical school but I plan on getting my MD/MBA...but, I have to get good grades. And this summer kind of sucked for that. My parents are right, I am getting distracted...and that's why part of me just wants to dismiss them both and guys altogether. I don't know. I just need some advice here. Any and all is welcome.

And my boyfriend is actually fully aware of my feelings for this other guy.

Help!!!

Music Tag and CONFUSED!!

Well...I got tagged for music tag. Been putting it off, but I might as well do it now lol. So here are the rules:

Put your i-tunes/music player/Nokia N95 on shuffle

For each question press the ‘next’ button to get your answer

You must write the name of the song down no matter what!!!

After you’ve answered all the questions tag 5 other people and let them they’ve been tagged and to do the meme themselves:

If someone says ‘is this okay?’ You say:
I'm a G - Young Joc ft. T.I.
I usually say it is...unless I am seriously opposed to it. I don't like to be controlling...but don't take that to mean I let people walk all over me. I stand up for myself when I need to.


What would best describe your personality?

The Boogie Monster- Gnarles Barkley
I have a monster in my closet? Haha...well, let's just say that I'm really nice, but not everyone knows EVERYTHING about me. I guess that makes me a little mysterious.

What do you like in a guy/girl?
Anxiety - Black Eyed Peas ft. Papa Roach
I really like a guy who can make me laugh...not even like, that's a requirement. Everything else can be negotiable...well except the fact that he has to be educated, smart, has a plan, loyal, caring...and have a great smile!

I can only hope that I can be half as good a parent to my children as they were to me.

What do you think about very often?
Boyfriend Girlfriend- C-side
Hmmm....very ironic. I think about my boyfriend/ex-bf a lot and still do. But I also think about school and my future a lot...I just need to stay really committed.

It's either 4 or 22...depending on how you look at it.

For the story today:

Well, my bf/ex-bf are in an odd place right now. We are taking a two month break...but we still act like we are going out. Holding hands and kissing and stuff...but things changed last night.

I hope you recall from a couple posts back when I said that there was this Ghanaian guy that I wanted to set a Ghanaian friend up with. He came over to my apartment yesterday...and long story short...he kissed me...for a decently long period of time. And I kind of let him. If you all really want details...I can post it later. I shouldn't have let that happen...but I am somewhat attracted to him. I know that's the point of this break, to try other people. Just so that we are sure that we are meant for each other. The break was moreso for me because he really wants me to tell my parents about him by the end of the year. But you all know the story, I'm not sure about telling my parents. They would be completely against the relationship because he's black-american.

And of course bf/ex-bf is sending me mixed signals. Keeps telling me to try him out...and that hopefully soon I will realize that he is the best guy for me. But then he at times tells me to just tell him that I am in love with someone else and not interested. To be honest...I am a little interested. Maybe it's because I want to take the easy way out. But at the same time, I don't know what my parents will do when I tell them. Will they make me change schools, stop paying my school fees, force me to break up with him...etc? This all referring to bf/ex-bf. I guess I should let things play out for a bit...
