The Best Laid Schemes of Mice and Men....

...sometimes go astray.

It's been a long time since I blogged. Well, I've just been away b/c things have been goin south; south of south. Three weeks ago, I got word that my older sister passed away (drop everything moe, you're back at square one). In a total state of shock, I went down to the waterside at old town to reflect on the whole situation. They said she was in great pains, a symptom of her sickled cell disease. I tacitly wondered what the money I sent home just three days before was used for (not that i send money home as often as I probably should, but nonetheless wondering). I took a tuesday off to finally break myself down and find some way to mourn. Otherwise, I'd go through the week in shellshock, being callous to everything around me including school work. So to the waterside in nostalgia of my younger days in fourah bay. I then caught a Matinee at Hoffman, "Capitalism". In that isolated theatre, I cried my eyeballs out for over an hour, fell asleep, woke up and went to Joseph's gravesite. From there I was ready to continue my week.
Besides that
it seems a lot of doors were closed, albeit nothing could really dampen the the great things that's happend this year, I've caught some Ls. But a the end I thank God for everything. Those Ls were battles lost in a war won by me. They were all related to my recent success, so they better had made me stronger-er. Success clouded by the unthinkable of course.

Rest in Peace M'Balu Sankoh, May Christ Always be with You.
