Blackface.

 IS NOT COOL. for any reason. people find it offensive. so you shouldn't do it.

If you haven't heard two NU students dressed up in blackface for Halloween, or should I say as black people, not sure of their intention, but it definitely came off as blackface.

I don't think they should have done it. I would like assume that those gentlemen didn't know about the history of blackface, and maybe that's why they felt it was alright. I would hope that it wasn't supposed to be a stereotype of black people. But this just demonstrates the  lack of awareness people have about race on the NU campus.

I myself am not that upset at the incident. I just hope people know that blackface not cool. And I expected people, especially the black community, to get upset about something like this. I think it was kinda stupid for them to post the pictures on the facebook. but hey.

there's supposed to be a discussion of the blackface tomorrow, educating people about it. I myself didn't know that much about it. If you want info now you can check wikipedia, as I did.

yes this was a serious post. I will do that from time to time.

PEACE & CHICKEN GREASE!

On a Serious Note..

so recently did a text cloud on my blog...
(i did this for my final project in my Comp Sci class...check it out here..not sure if the thing actually works..but whatev.)
oh a text cloud, is like a representation of words from a text or whatever...the words that appear most frequently are the largest..the ones that appear least frequently are smaller....yeha..

i see that my blog is really not about anything at all...
you know for some strange reason i wanted the text cloud...
to be like so insightful about my blog (and essentially about me...because to me...my blog = my life.... you know i pour my soul in to this blog...ever time i decided to make a post....<----UM JOKING) anywayz....you know thinking about it more...about this blog in relation to myself....the text cloud, the words of my blog (me) does represent me....im funny, random, crazy. but if only this blog could be serious (and by saying that am I wishing I was serious...i don't know....sometimes i do)....but there's not that much serious-ness in me for me to continue to write about this serious-ness....you know right now i perceive that in this post right here...it.is very serious...you know im doing some self-reflection and analysis.....you kno...(but in actuality, you probably don't cuz ur an idiot.....yeap) [ Some of things you may have read above may not make sense but I was too lazy to write it in a way where you could understand it]

but um this is really long...
i'll leave you with a random pic...cuz that's what i do....
