an explanation...

so...
i had an epiphany

well not really...

but!

instead of giving excuses...
(though i try to stay away from them...)
i tend to use them at times...

i have found the solution to my problem...
to elevate confusions....
the word has now been officially put to silence...
and replaced with "explanation"

i.e.: I didn't blog today.
the explanation: I decided to go to the library and study for my exam on Friday. I was sure my readers will understand.

though is seems the same.
Excuses makes it seem like I had no control over the situation
For example: my alarm didn't go off, i got a flat, the bus was late, My teacher don't like black people…

With explanations, I am making a choice.
For example: I pressed snooze 6 times before I got up, I stopped to get gas because I saw the price went done, I choose to eat breakfast before I went to the bus stop, I decided to go to the BlackOut Jam before I decided to tell my teacher I had no idea what she was talking about, failed the class and lost my bright futures...


Get it?
great...

Umm...
Thus said, I decided that I'd go ahead and finish my paper due tomorrow... before I get down to writing a good blog... and then... I changed my mind...
lol..

ta ta for now
one love.

i hope that losing bright futures reference was an anecdote, for literary emphasis.
