unleashed. here i go!

Top Student. That’s what they call me back where I was as much an icon as I was an upstart. Not sure what it means, but I guess you could say that I scored really well on a bunch of tests, wrote a couple of profound papers and somehow managed to appear wise beyond my circumstance. Maybe even broke a few records to the point where the BigBoyz opened their fat wallets to give a saintly, impoverished student the ticket to her dreams. But like I said, that’s who I was back there.

Not so much now. Today (and please pardon the cliché-nesssss) I’m the small town chick in a big city, inevitably going through changes in this here new environment. The difference here though, is that my losing my homeliness may not be as bad a thing as can be expected. More of a necessary evil, if you will. By the way, where I’m from and where I am now are both irrelevant at this point, especially since the story will remain the same regardless of my position on a map. It’s the people that are different; the physical place: not so much . Plus we’ve only just met.

Been here a few years now and the CoolKidz have been chiseling away at my walls. To the disappointment of my protégés, a few holes have indeed been created. I suppose I secretly always wanted to do those things anyway; just needed the right amount of impetus. For the record, I’d rather confess to secret deviance than to open malleability. I like to choose my poison, seen? So why did I need to be uprooted before I could ‘free the me inside?’ Well you see, there are 2 main reasons why I did and still continue to embrace the goody two shoes name, even amidst my occasional undesirable desires:

1. I believe in Jesus and thus I genuinely try to be a moral person. To me it makes sense. You don’t have to like it, but I’ve seen Him work.

2. I believe in doing what I have to do until I can do what I want to do. Chances of the BigBoyz being nice to a drugged out village bicycle are slim to none.

In Recent News: I took off for a little bit to work and all the while address my pesky inner conflicts...on an island actually. The plan is to figure out what’s really important to TheTopSutdent and then return to the DreamLand where I’ll continue to read for my awesome degree in style... but this time, my style.

With that being said, this blog will track my progress on the island, then my consequent stylingzz in DreamLand, before finally, the triumphant return home about a year from now. I must admit however, that the posts may not necessarily be regular. I’m far too busy for that, but I will make a valiant effort. Most likely once per week; or at least no less than fortnightly. And, if you’re lucky, I may even talk about something that you CoolKidz actually care about.

Oh, you should jam to my music. It’s important, I promise.

T’was a Pleasure!
