• hmmm…monday morning…8:30 class…damn…too early…this year so far has been very usual but very new at the same time….hard to explain…someone came up to me after reading my journal and asked if i was depressed….hmmm….i don’t think so…i know i’ve been adjusting to life without someone…and  at times i feel an emptyness that i haven’t felt before…but i seem in good spirits…i go on living my life…i have fun…but yet this feeling still lingers…i guess time heals everything…one thing i have realized is that i thought i was at a certain level…but i’ve realized i’m not there yet…been feeling down lately because a couple of my friends have just gone through breakups after relationships longer than mine…hits close to home…i don’t know what advice to give since i’m not sure of myself in that regard….

  
  

  don’t take this entry the wrong way though…if you know me…i live in the present…not in the past…or too much in the future…live and learn from experience…

  
  

  but anyways…this whole writing down thoughts really does work to relieve some stress…back to the story at hand…

  so wut else is new in my life?…legolos…lord of the rings…lol…no seriously…this xanga this is time consuming…its like i’m a tree(emp) from Two Towers…i don’t write anything unless its worthwhile to write and time is spent thinking and writing it….

  
  

  this weekend went to e-zone the lounge for the 1st time….that place is pretty cool…i was pleasantly surprised with the atmosphere…the only thing that sucks is that the jits tables are robertos…

  AA is ghey…everytime i try to update my page now…code keeps getting jacked from the bottom…i’ve given up…gonna redo the whole page eventually…

  
  

  another chapter from the book of ming:

  
  

  [Ming online] yes…this part of ming has become a standard part of ming’s life…sad to say…i never thought it would come to this point…at 1st i was critisized by friends about making “INTER-net” friends and fake cyber girlfriends….lol…and now…anyone not online is deemed ‘not with it’…wuddup with that?…lol…i remember i never really got into the net till i went to univ…i remember when i 1st logged on back in 94-95 all i could find online was damn nerd sites about doom and duke…hahaha…but when i went to univ…97 it was alot better….so many resources…so many ppl to meet…so much useless time consuming procrastination material available!..and yes…the AA adventure began as well…AA was the ish back then…pure happiness and no pseudo-thug retardedness…the skillz i had back then…i don’t think i could repeat…i’ve claimed i should write a book…but yeah anyways…ming’s head is getting too big reliving his aa truimphs in his head…but yeah…the internet…where the nerd is a superior…lol…analog = oldskool

  
  

  ok…i’ve spent way too much time doing this….so i’m gonna end it off with the lyrics from a classic hip hop track:

  
  

  Nas
  Illmatic (1994)
  It Ain’t Hard to Tell
  
  It ain’t hard to tell, I excel, then prevail
  The mic is contacted, I attract clientele
  My mic check is life or death, breathin a sniper’s death
  I exhale the yellow smoke of buddha through righteous steps
  Deep like The Shinin’, sparkle like a diamond
  Sneak a uzi on the island in my army jacket linin
  Hit the Earth like a comet, invasion
  Nas is like the Afrocentric Asian, half-man, half-amazin
  Cause in my physical, I can express throuh song
  Delete stress like Motrin, then extend strong
  I drank Moet with Medusa, give her shotguns in hell
  From the spliff that I lift and inhale, it ain’t hard to tell
  
  The buddha monk’s in your trunk, turn the bass up
  Nas, stories by Aesop, place your loot up, parties I shoot up
  Nas, I analyze, drop a jew-el
  Inhale from the L, school a fool well, you feel it like braille
  It ain’t hard to tell, I kick the skill like Shaquille holds a pill
  Vocabulary spills I’m Ill
  plus Matic, I freak beats slam it like Iron Shiek
  Jam like a tech with correct techniques
  So analyze me, surprise me, but can’t magmatize me
  Scannin while you’re plannin ways to sabatoge me
  I leave em froze like her-on in your nose
  Nas’ll rock well, it ain’t hard to tell
  
  This rhythmatic explosion, is what your frame of mind has chosen
  I’ll leave your brain stimulated, niggaz is frozen
  Speak with criminal slang, begin like a violin
  End like Leviathan, it’s deep well let me try again
  Wisdom be leakin out my grapefruit troop
  I dominate break loops, givin mics men-e-straul cycles
  Street’s disciple, I rock beats that’s mega trifle
  And groovy but smoother than moves by Villanova
  You’re still a soldier, I’m like Sly Stallone in Cobra
  Packin like a rasta in the weed spot
  Vocals’ll squeeze glocks, MC’s eavesdropT
  Though they need not to sneak
  My poetry’s deep, I never fell
  Nas’s raps should be locked in a cell
  It ain’t hard to tell
