First Day of School...
Monday, January 9th, 2017 09:54 pmI. Am. In. Black. Girl. Heaven.
Like, first, I was already excited because my microbiology class starts at 6 o'clock in the evening and this is the very first time in my life that I ever had an evening class!! -SQUEE!!-
But ya'll...I walked into that classroom...it was like a fuckin' sea. Of. Black. Women. Only a sprinkling of white witches, lord have mercy.
I sat right smack down in the front right with them (I didn't speak, tho-Amarie can be shy, since she's an ambivert) and basically in the middle of them. So, so many black women. All of them a beautiful rainbow of brown shades and differing hairstyles. Natural 'fros, wigs, sew-ins, more natural 'fros, braids, etc...
It was much the same with my microbiology lab not fifteen minutes later (Mommy drove me quickly through the parking lot so I wouldn't have to walk in the freezing cold dark, teehee!). Black. Women. All. Over. The. Place.
And by the almighty lord, may it be much the same for the rest of the week!!!!

P.S Umm...also, I ain't told no one this because I'm still processing it. But, uhh...one of my dear friends' family bought me a motherfucking Windows tablet for Christmas because they know my broke ass ain't got shit. I have named her "Pinky" because I put her main page (?) background as pink. Her internet didn't work (...Microsoft, why on the lord's green earth are you still fucking with Internet Explorer?), but I just got her working not a few minutes ago!
I am so happy and excited to take her with me to class tomorrow so I can follow my notes!! :D :D
P.S.S My microbiology teacher? The dude is your typical Dorky/Geeky White Boy Wearing Plaid With Square Glasses And Always Cracking Jokes teacher. He is awesome and I love him already!!
