Probably the most expensive low-budget music video of all time...



While this probably was the most expensive low budget video of all time, it was so much more. The first time I heard Otis By Kanye and Jay-z, I loved it, it felt like the were taking it back to their Heart of the city days. For those that don't know, Heart of the city was on Jay -Zs blueprint album and was Kanye's first platinum produced record. BUt anywho, i was watching the video with one of my friends and when it was over she was just like "That was terrible, extremely low budget, i expected so much more from them and especially for this song".. At that point, the only argument I could make was "That was a 350k car that they just destroyed... so this has to be the most expensive low budget video of all time".. But after watching it again, and getting a chance to sit back and actually think about what i was watching and the msessages that they were sending in the song, in the video, and throughout the whole album.. all I can say is... WHOA..
I was going to explain what i thought jay and Kanye were saying in this song, but i think im going to save that for a later post, and include it when I explain what "Watch the Throne" really means. Stay Tuned

I'm so tired..


Ever since I started my internship June 20th, I havent stopped working... I was in the office 40 hours a week, I was trying not to let my social life suffer, I was trying to pilot 2 initiatives. A college ministry and a Summer Business Program... Now i'm done with my internship and Ive launched the college ministry, and Im still working on the Summer Business Program, now i want to be a board member at a certain not for profit so ive been working alot with that.... I didnt want to stop, I wanted to do it all...But I'm exhausted now...

I slept most of yesterday and my body feels like its just working its way up to tired. Like... A girl that I use to fantasize about was recently in my bed at 3am... and i was too tired to even care... Unfortunately she went back to school now so im kind of regreting that... but ill talk about that later..

But im in dire need for a vacation... I just want to up and leave.... Spend a weekend out of this city
