Family Matters

I knew this was coming. Ok so have you ever acted on impulse and didn't think of the consequences but by the time you've done that it's too late?

Yea I'm tryna be proactive. Right now I'm at a rock and a hard place. As you know, I've been accepted to Tennessee State and I had plans on transferring there in the fall and leaving Kentucky State behind me. I was all game for that because I've always loved TSU and my best friend goes there so I was all amped up for being at school with him.

But my friend from KSU had a talk with me last night and so did one of my co-workers. Maybe I should look at the pro's and con's of the two and then compare them. Aight so here it goes.

TSU Pro's :

New scenery . New start . Bigger school . Better city .

KSU Pro's :

Brandon's there . I won't lose any credits . Established friendships . Big opportunity has been offered that means a lot to me, can't say it on here but it's awesome . The band is probably going to kill this year which means 2nd year at Honda .

TSU Con's :

Lost credits . No established friendships for real . (Well just my best friend Vincent and then my "friend" Shawn, plus Brandon and Jahmal) but two of those are in fraternities so that's just drama waiting to happen . I'd be the new girl on campus . NO band .

KSU Cons :

Small ass school . Same stupid, petty bs that I was dealing with last year .

I can't think of everything right now, but the biggest thing that's puzzling me about this is, no band? I mean I know what you're thinking TSU has a band so I can just join there right? NO WAY!! After all of the blood, sweat, and tears that I put towards MMT (Mighty Marching Thorobreds) I refuse to give myself to another band like that. No can do. Some of you can call it a stupid reason if you want to, but quite frankly it's extremely important to me. I've been in band for almost 10 years. A DECADE!! It's basically a part of me, it's like a person that has dedicated their life to basketball and just decides to give it up way before their time.

Plus during all of the stuff that I've gone through with these people, it's brought us close together like a family and I don't know if I want to leave that . MMT is my extended family and they meet a lot to me, so I don't think I can just pack up on them like that!

We'll see .

SO dope. *
