Good evening,
So it seems like every time I find something new, it results in something old, turns me blue. They did always say that the summer time is wedding season. On a greater note, just wanted to keep the internet updated with the boring life of Dion J. Bullock.
As my economic situation continues to improve, my social life seems to dissolve. My mom and I seem to keep getting blessed, which I do not complain, I appreciate. I know there are others without. I received the revised financial aid package for the 2009-2010 school year, and it looks like I will be coming out with gains. This means I have enough for books and many other necessities. Today, my mom and I went to the eye doctor so we can get new glasses. We both felt it was time to update a lot of things in our lives. Her with the apartment decoration, mine with my wardrobe. I have been slacking on my dressing. It was one of the things I took pride in high school. Now when college comes, I will step it up.
With success comes hardship, I have learned that the hard way. I ended up messing things up with that cardiologist female that I wrote about it half of my entries. I take full responsibility, not the best moment of the week, but it happened. She told me off, and I probably deserved it. The ironic thing is, I was trying to tell her that I was going to take some time off to work on personal issues. I make her sound like a job, but that is how it felt. Making sure she was alright, always seeing if she was happy and if not I would make it that way. I think that was the problem. I won't go anymore into it, I actually think it was for the better.
Then, my mom's facebook gets hacked by some dude, saying the most random stuff. I just don't understand who sends this much time actually trying to set that up. It was some reckless statuses and everything. It just shows, even though someone is out to get us, we can always recover.
As the time winds down on my summer, I sit down and reflect. Even though I pretty much did nothing this whole summer, I came out on top with new clothes and extra money. I am just blessed. I made some new friends, probably lost some in the process. Losing friends is a natural part of life, and until I realize that I will be lost. I have two weeks until I leave New York City and resume my life in Kalamazoo. Just need to make it as eventful as possible.
Well, I will bid you ado.
With Peace, Love, and Melody

Your Presence Quenches My Thirst, Sorry Sprite
And even in my wettest form, I still feel good about chillin' with this young lady. It's a gift I guess.
This weekend was kind of cool actually. Friday was just even more boredom than usual, especially since it was a Friday. Being the cheapskate that I am, which is reasonable, since I don't have a job, I usually don't get out much. Some call it laziness, I call it educated saving. Anyway, I ended up going to Bay Ridge to practice my billiards. I swear, I am addicted to this 8-Ball game. It is lovely that I can go play for 2 hours and only spend $8. Much better than going to the movies. It just sucks that my legs were killing me after all of the bend and stretching from shooting. After that, just went home and talked to some people on AIM. Typical day.
Saturday, started too early for me to be happy with. My mom wakes me up at 8:30 am to go to IKEA in Hicksville. I am starting to like IKEA more and more, it is just annoying having to go shopping and taking stuff up stairs all of the time. And we still have to go back some time next week to get another dresser. The day was pretty much saved by Sasha's block party. It's crazy how I traveled like an hour just to do the same thing I do on my block. It was way more entertaining though. A lot of young ladies looking good. Si si. It sucked going home with soggy socks after getting carried into a fire hydrant on full blast, but I enjoyed every minute. Highlight of the day was taking the train home with Marissa. Even though it was like five minutes, she just made me feel special.
On the last note, I just want to say that it is too hot outside now. I am going to drink this Kool-Aid now, and relax under my Air Conditioner. Always remember: Education ---> Money ----> Women ----> Family ----> Too Much Stress. (Which can be good sometimes)
Peace be with you (and also with you)

Best Week of An Awkward African American's Life
I just wanted to update the blog for the non-followers and the random people who might read this every once in awhile when I put it on facebook links. Shout outs to Mark Zuckerberg or however you spell his last name. He started a cultural phenomenon, who would have guessed? It has helped me make a lot of friends and spread a lot of works and feelings. I was just thinking about myspace, where it used to be my life. Changing music every week, changing the background, changing my name to some silly punchline. For example "Your Girl Wipes Me Down Like A Mexican Bus Boy". I know I was stupid then. To the real reason I am writing this:
I am a faithful person, even though I don't spread it or go to church anymore. I feel that a person can still believe in God and pray without going to church. I have had a problem with church for awhile, as it has become a routine and not a spiritual service. Just a lot of singing and talking. I can do that myself. I have been praying recently, and all of my problems have been fixed. It is amazing. As most of you know, or don't know, I have been complaining about the lack of Psychology classes and how I was going to declare something else because the school does not want me to succeed. After a lot of (im)patience, I decided to check Portal, the new registration website that will ruin the school. It has been having a lot of bugs, which is expected for the first year of use, but it still sucks. I miss ARO :'( So yeah, I had to wait two weeks to register for the last spot in Intro to Sociology, but I finally go it! I had to leave Law and Economics, which kind of sucked, but still. So last night, I get a text telling me I should register for Cognition, since there is one spot open. I got it too!!!!!! After three months of complaining about how I wanted that class and with the teacher not responding to me, I finally got in!!!! I just have to thank Tanj now. It comes with bittersweet news, since she wants to leave. I mean it sucks that she has to leave, but the reasoning is understandable. I am just happy my schedule is constructed perfectly. My first class is a 1:15. I get out of class on MWF at 4 pm. I have Intro to Doc Film TR at 12:30-3:30, which might be long, but I hear it is a great class. I do want to learn how to film and direct. Another piece of great news, the Student Commission and Kate Leishman has decided to pass my Chivalry Club, WITHOUT AN ADVISOR. This week just has been the best week of my summer.
Also, I have realized that I want to drop Economics as a minor. It was only there for a back-up plan. I do like Economics, but I would only be minoring to try to get money. I am sticking with the Psychology department, and might be minoring in Anthropology/Sociology. Hopefully I can see if they can split the minor like they did in Economics/Business. Maybe anthropology will be good for me though. Oh well. I think I have finally found peace in my life though, nothing really bothering me. Girls are not of an issue at the moment. My cardiologist and I are just friends. It sucked at first, but I was able to move on. She is still amazing. I just went online shopping this week and ordered my clothes for next year. Oh man, "ficky ficky fresh" in the words of Alain. I can't wait to get to training though, the workload looks hard, but I think it will be good. Plus, I get to see my homies. That will be great, playing Smash again. I apologize if this isn't that entertaining this time, but hey, I am the President of the Chivalry Club baby! Oh shoot, that reminds me, I have to fill out that application. Wish me luck!
Peace, Love, Friendship
