Rapper + Teenage Angst = Hit song!

I know I'm supposed to hate this song, but I don't. I know I'm supposed to hate Wayne for using the autotune and then sing on top of that. I know I'm supposed to dis Weezy F. Baby for selling and going rock.

And for some gosh-awful reason I'm not sure why I like this song. It's hip-hop-meets-teenage angst.

I like it.



She had it all figured out/ But she left me with a broken heart/ F@#ked around and turned me down/ Cause she didn’t think I could play the part/ But now the prom queen, the prom queen/ Is crying senseless outside of my door/ She never know how/ How everything could turn around

Someone cue up that one Ice Cube song I like

I woke up early this morning and aced my bowling final.

It was a multiple choice quiz.

Yeah, I said bowling final. Bowling a.k.a. KIN 105 is a course that is worth 2.0 credits at Southern Illinois University. I guess I shouldn't be crying FML as much as I have recently.

I then went to Wal-Mart, picked up some food and laundry detergent before making myself a grand homemade breakfast of extra cheesy scrambled eggs with biscuits. Ooh, and I had two glasses of orange juice because I figured OJ usually makes me feel better when I'm sick.

I'll be darned. It did.

After that, it was all up-hill. I came into the newsroom wearing a smile while holding two boxes of Krispy Kreme donuts. I felt as if I should be in a giving mood because usually when I'm making other people happy, I tend to crack a smile. Again, it worked.

Watched a productive softball practice. I have a feeling I'm going to absolutely love covering this team once they finally start the home portion of their schedule.

The Cubs beat the Dodgers. Finally.

SIU beat Drake to snap its lengthy losing streak. Finally.

And while not everything has gone my way, I figure that I hit rock bottom this week and I can just climb out of the hole slowly. I assume I've been in worse places in my life, so what's another climb from the cellar.

I can't honestly tell you why I've done a complete 180. Why I'm in a really good mood. Why I feel like I am in a happy place. It wasn't too long ago I was contemplating quitting life. Not really, but kind of. I felt as if I was failing at life and there was no way out.

But for some reason, things turned around. And I appreciate that. I think everyone who came in contact with me the last few days knew something was wrong. And I downplayed it. Now, they can tell I'm in a better mood. And I'm embracing it.

All in all ... well, I'll let Ice Cube take you home.

I really do wish I was on a motherf*cking boat

How I'm going to get through my day.

Playing this on repeat.
