The MC

Hugh Augustine. If put into words, most would simply call him "beast" as he flows effortlessly over beats, submitting each one in less than one round. He has been referred to by many names, most of which strike fear into the hearts of lesser men, however one thing remains constant, that he always stays true to himself.

It's Your Birthday

---

So my pops bday is this Friday. I was walking through campus thinking about what I could get him. I'm flying home Thursday night, which is probably enough of a present anyways, but I want to get him something good.

Then I got to thinking about what my Dad's birthday really means to me or what it has meant in the past. Usually it was a day to go out to dinner, buy some generic gift that he'd use, and move on. My birthday, which is less than a month after his was always much more important to me and to him (or so it seems). My mom's born day is in May, and since she passed in January I didn't pay any special importance to what turned out to be her last birthday because I didn't see death as imminent at the time. This time around, for my Dad's birthday, I feel an added importance. I have a greater appreciation for the sacrifices my parents made for me to be where I am today. It's my goal this Friday to make my Dad's birthday as important as mine is.

I wrote all of that to encourage all that read this to put a little more effort into showing your parents the appreciation you have for them.

Speaking On Ye

I don't even want to touch this topic, but I feel the need to.

I just want to say that it annoys the hell out of me to see everybody talking about Kanye of Facebook or Twitter or whatever blog.

For real, the VMAs are an award show. It's entertainment. Not real life.

For the record, I LOL'd, then got back to thinking about more important stuff. You should do the same.

This week

I'm building a bike.

If you haven't heard, President Obama is planning to give an address to kids in school all across the country to urge them to stay in school and work hard. I was reading an article about it and I came across this quote.

In Florida, GOP chairman Jim Greer released a statement that he was "absolutely appalled that taxpayer dollars are being used to spread President Obama's socialist ideology."
