Dom Kennedy- "Locals Only"

Don't call it a comeback...!!!

Damn I've been off this hoe 4 a while...so much has changed but so much is still the same...I'm still broke as shit, still in college, still fly...
I'm now 1 week away from being with football 4 good...not completely but playing-wise I am...and its wierd because alot of my fellow seniors have been experiencing nostalgic moments and reflecting on games while on the other hand I can't seem 2 conjour up such feelings...the only things I'll miss will the games and being around my teamates...but as far as the practices, 6AM workouts ,jammed fingers sprained ankles, bone spurs, bitch ass coaches, scholarship issues...that shit is 4 the birds...after this Saturday I doubt if I have anything else 2 do with Angelo State Football...I'm simply burned out...it gave me alot and I gave alot but I think they benifited more in long run because i dont think I was ever allowed 2 do everything I wanted while in college due to constraints from football...with that being said the only way I could see myself playing football after this is if some random NFL, CFL, whoever called me outta the blue talking about a contract...just talking randomly...I'll be back with more soon

The Life and Times of Zeus

Hell muthafuckin' yeah nigga that's me!!!! lmao....but real talk this pic has been plastered all over campus 4 the game we just had against Eastern New Mexico last Saturday. So I been crazy attention when I walk 2 class...shit's hella weird. Anyways, we won 41-38, it shouldn't have been that damn close but they got this crazy ass offense...picture the spread, on crack...i thought i was gonna pass out after the 1st quarter....

I've officially abandoned Twitter...that shit is fuckin' wack...I had hella followers and some crazy ass convos but I don't have the time to maintain that shit...between school, football, studying, and my gal I barely have time 2 sleep let alone tweet about some shit that everybody knows I'm doin'

So I been bangin' Dom Kennedy tough lately...dude just has a nice ass flow that I can lay back and kick it to...I never really been into SUPER LIVE music unless I'm at the club or b4 a football game or something... but if I'm in the car or walkin' to class I'm listening to something smooth

Laugh of The Day lmao!!!

Stroke of Genius

the Power video is a tremendous visual for the Greek mythology story of Dionsysus and Damocles and genius on kanye's part because it really goes perfectly with the song and the concept

 

heres the story right here in a nutshell...

Damocles exclaimed that, as a great man of power and authority, Dionysius was truly fortunate. Dionysius offered to switch places with him for a day, so that Damocles could taste first hand that fortune. In the evening a banquet was held where Damocles very much enjoyed being waited upon like a king. Only at the end of the meal did he look up and notice a sharpened sword hanging directly above his head by a single horse-hair. Immediately, he lost all taste for the fine foods and beautiful companions and asked leave of the tyrant, saying he no longer wanted to be so fortunate.

Dionysius had successfully conveyed a sense of the constant fear in which the great man lives.

"no one man should have all that power"

the "Sword of Damocles" hanging over Kanye's head thru his halo...

it was all portrayed perfectly in the moving portrait.

Not Video.

Its a Moving portrait...

Kanye Played this one too cool.

Everyone's waiting patiently the whole week expecting some outlandish beautiful artistic video...

And no we didn't match on purpose lol

Nigel Lott > All your weak ass friends put together, lol.

Like seriously though. This is my muthafuckin' brother...through thick and thin, this has been my right hand man...And we have the best memories, like the most rediculous shits happens when we team up...nobody understands my opinion on fashion, music, etc like him...I'd break your leg for this guy lol

Day 6: My Day

Today I been chillin', woke up at 12PM, did some laundry and came 2 the computer 2 write this lol...just happy to be off from work, and being able 2 party and sleep late...

Day 5: Definition of Love

According to Wikipedia, Love is the emotion of strong affection and personal attachment. In philosophical context, love is a virtue representing all of human kindness, compassion, and affection. In religious context, love is not just a virtue, but the basis for all being ("God is love"), and the foundation for all divine law (Golden Rule).

With that being said, I personally have my own 2 different definitions of love.

The first being complete and unconditional love. This is the first kind of love someone recieves and typically last the longest. The people that realistically recieve this kind of love would be God and family.

The second is romantic love...typically the most talked about but the hardest to find, true romantic love is one of the best feelings but can also be one of the worst and hurt the most if used against you...

I'm keeping this short 'cause if i really go into it this could end up being like 3 pages long lol...

Day 4: What I Ate Today

NAWWWW...this ain't what I ate today but I wish I was eating this at this very moment...I actually haven't eaten anything yet because my diet, like 90% of college students in the world, is absolutely terrible....

Day 3: My Parents

Wow...I dont even know where when talking about 2 of the most important people 2 me...Words can't even explain the love, adoration, and appreciation I have 4 these 2 people...Without them I can't imagine what kind of person I would've turned out 2 become...I honestly can never re-pay them 4 what they've done 4 me 4 the past 21 years...the closest thing I can come 2 that is 2 be the God-fearing, well-educated, caring person that they've raised me 2 be...

Day 2: My 1st love...

You can spot us all the way on the right side

Man, where do begin when I'm talking about this one? Off top I'm gonna try to put away all ill feeling toward this person in order speak on this objectively...I'm gonna say some that nobody knows about, not even my mama knows...it gets crazy and you WILL be surprised!!!

Well........she was pretty much my 1st everything...we met my freshman year in high school 'cause I played basketball and she was the team manager 4 the girls freshman team and we all practiced at the same time so we would often see each other and eventually hit off from there....in the beginning everything was great but once we hit that 1 yr anniversary she pretty much lost her entire damn mind, cheating and running away from home, and me being an inexperienced 15 year old didn't know how 2 handle it so things were rocky 4 a while until sophomore year when the best thing that could've happen did...THAT BITCH MOVED AWAY 2 FLORIDA!!!

I know that sounds harsh but that's really the best thing that happened 4 me 'cause I finally got a chance 2 see what or females were out there because I had been so consumed with her that I gave nobody else a shot but the problem was I didn't really trust females my age so I became mean as hell 2 chicks I dated...then I started 2 talkin' 2 so many chicks that i started developing a reputation as "player' that still kinda follows me around whenever I go back home...

Soooo fast forward 2 years to senior year in high school...by that time puberty had transformed me into a 6'2" 235 lb football star that treated females with an utter contempt, probably coming from her...I was one of the dudes u wouldn't have liked in HS...anyways I get a call outta of the blue that she wants 2 go 2 prom with me...my initial reaction was BITCH FUCK NO!!!...but after a few days I eventually decided 2 go ahead and do it if she was willing 2 come from Florida which she did...

Fast forward 2 late April 2007, a couple days b4 my bday and right b4 prom...she arrives in Austin and the minute she touches down she's all "I love you" and "We should start over" and 2 honest I was kinda hearing it 4 a second but I shut that down....so we have prom and it was SO LIVE!!! If I could relive that day a thousand times over I would besides the part about me having 2 go home @ 3 AM but that's another story lol

So we say our goodbyes at the airport with the thought that she would go 2 Texas Tech and I would go 2 Angelo St. on a football scholarship...so the 1st day of class comes and I'm an 18 year old freshman on my own 4 the 1st time ever, and on the prowl...as I'm walking 2 class I see a chick that whose body looks familiar, and as I  get closer..."NO!!! IT CAN'T BE! FUCK!!!!"....she fucked around and followed me 2 college...

The whole time she was there I didn't see her as anything more than something 2 smash whenever nothing else was available but she had it in her mind that we were gonna be together 4ever..."HUH! I'm 18!!! WTF!

So she finally leaves after a semester because she realizes I wasn't that same 14 year old little boy that she had met 4 years b4...I was turning into a man with my own thoughts, my own goals, and NO time 2 deal with her and the drama that she brought...so she went back 2 Austin and became a SUPER JUMPOFF!!! It had gotten 2 the point where it started affecting her health and then it became a life or death situation...and then she had the nerve call me saying that it's MY fault because if I hadn't treated her so bad then she wouldn't have started sleeping around and got her health fucked up...I felt bad 4 her situation but I'll never feel guilty about it 'cause I didn't have anything 2 do with her laying down with X amount of people and getting what she got...

Now...after 7 years...all I can do is pray 4 her...

DAMN!!!

Julio Aparicio just had the worst day ever. hey – at least his mouth was open! there’s a silver lining to every bad situation.

and now for a close-up!

A couple months ago while turning down one chick and setting up a chill session with another a question popped in my head that I never took the time to address. As I sat there texting the chick I’ve found myself spending a lot more time with I pondered what must a woman possess to make a guy like me settle down and be committed. I thought about it for a while and here is what I came up with.




The Funny Chick: When I settle down I would need for the women I spend the rest of my life with to be funny or have an amazing sense of humor. No man really wants a dull woman and even if she’s not funny we need to share in the same type of humor. If I like to see bunnies getting blown to smithereens, then the girl I’m with should share in me laughing until tears fall from the ducts of my eyes.

The Do Nothing Chick: We’ve all been in relationships where the only time we could really stand our mates were when we were having sex. Well, in order for me to settle down I need to be able to actually want to be around the person, even if we aren’t doing anything fun. I need to be able to just sit on the couch with her while she’s reading a book, I need to be able to surf the web, while she’s in the bathroom curling and flat ironing her hair. We need to be able to do nothing together, without that why even be together?

The Respect Chick: In order for me to settle down I would have to be able to respect the woman. A lot of times a woman will depend on a man, or use a man, even if she loves them. This often eats at a man’s respect for them. Ladies, a way to maintain your respect is to offer to pay for a dinner, buy a just because gift or a hey I thought you would like this. There is no reason why a woman can’t take the lead in a relationship sometimes.

The Interactive Chick: Another key thing men think about when they settle down is how do we interact with one another? Are we constantly arguing over the dumbest things? Do I find myself calling her outside her name when she’s not around? I’m sorry BUT, I don’t want to argue over things like the toilet seat being left up or for buying Kraft cheese when she wanted sharp cheddar. I would like to have intense debates about the BP Oil Spill and Obama’s response and even “discussions” over what’s going to happen next on True Blood or whatever our favorite show is to watch together.

The Like Me Girl: The bottom line is I need a girl who actually likes me. I need the girl who would pick me out of a crowd of millions so I could be her Prince Charming. This is important to me because at the end of the day if I’m going to settle down that means I like her more than every other girl in the world. These feelings can’t be forced, I don’t want her to settle for me, I don’t want to be an option in her life I forever want to be a priority. I feel like a lot of dates are options. Not doing anything on a Friday night call this one. I never want that to be me, I never want to be just the option.



There are a lot more things men want out of a woman before they settle down, but these things are pretty much standard and men don’t say them all the time. Yet, trust me when I tell you a man has to be able to do nothing with you, in order to do everything with you

Laugh of the Day

See more funny videos and funny pictures at CollegeHumor.

Everything about this clip is pure comedy!!!

If I ever see this in real life she's gettin' cuffed up on sight...

Let me tell y’all something; forget what people think of you and forget what they have say—to your face or behind your back. They’re just words and thoughts. Their words and thoughts—not yours.



At the end of the day, all those little opinions and observations won’t mean anything. All that matters is what you think. What you feel. What you believe. What you know.


When it’s all said and done and you’re placed in that little pine box (or whatever kind of wood your loved ones can afford) none of those superficial things will mean a damn thing.


So what you had some Prada shoes or a Gucci belt. So what you had 10 zeroes in your bank account. So what you drove a Mercedes-Benz. Who gives a flyin’ fuck? You can’t take any of it with you when you’re gone. So fuck it and fuck anyone that takes more value in the superficial than what lies beneath the surface.


What lies in a person’s heart.

It doesn’t matter how successful your career was, how many countries you traveled to, or how diverse your mutual fund was. What matters most is who you are/were, how you lived and how you will be remembered.


When I die I don’t want to be remembered for my job. I don’t want to be remembered for my GPA. I don’t want to be remembered for my personal property. I don’t even want to be remembered for this blog.


When I die I want to be remembered for who I was beyond all of the above. Remembered for how I impacted others. Remembered for more than what only the naked eye could behold.


When people say my name, I want them to say…


Good dude, good friend, good soul.


When people describe me, I want them to say…


Loyal, honest, trustworthy.


When people define who I was, I want them to say…


Son, friend.


When people reflect on how I lived my life, I want them to say…


Just, fair, impartial.


When people think of me, I want them to say…


Loved, treasured, missed.


So forget all the bullshit, I want to be remembered for what’s most important.


If not, then I messed up somewhere. I failed myself, you and my legacy.


No matter what, though, I will not succumb to your standards, observations and limitations. As long as I’m remembered by at least one person for something positive, some kind of meaningful impact, then I’m good.

Quick question: Who still say's the word "swag" anymore????

Beauty

I find, in being Black,

a thing of "Beauty";

like a joy; a strength;

a secret cup of gladness ...

a native land in neither time nor place ...

a native land in every Black face!

Be loyal to yourselves;

your skin;

your hair;

your lips;

your speech;

your laughing kinds

are Black kingdoms,

vast as any other.

-- Ossie Davis

 

Track of the Day Pt. 2 Lupe Fiasco "I'm Beamin'"

I been bangin' this shit tough 4 the last 2 weeks...

Track of the Day "Wale" Diary (Video)

This is where I feel Wale is at his best: discussing issues that the normal guy can relate to rather than talkin' fly...and the main chick in the video is fuckin' gorgeous 2 me 4 some reason...I can relate this song completely 'cause 90% of the chicks I've ever dated have had problems getting over what their last boyfriend did and that in turn affected their relationship with me and 4 me that is often what has killed a good relationship....

Curren$y – Role Model

Anybody who knows me knows I am a HUUUGEEEEE Curren$y fan!! His most recent mixtape Smokee Robinson was fire. He has been droppin some tracks lately and this one has been one of the best by far. It’s a chill song and definitely worth a download and spot on your playlist.

Theophilus London - Life Of A Lover

Mental Throw up!

Right now I'm just letting my thoughts roam and just typing whatever I'm so this might come out a little hard 2 follow...

 

 

 

"Its the Boondocks, I swear I'm like Heuy mixed with Riley, Thursday I be tryna save the world and then on Friday I hit the club, hopin' that my dick get rubbed by some phat asses, niggas get to scrappin' then you them gats blastin'" -j.cole

SOOOOO...the NFL Draft just past a few days ago and I got a chance 2 witness 224 young men experience a life changing event...and i got 2 thinking "this could be ME next year"....now a lotta people at my school think I'm not because I'm so in other things besides football....and 2 be honest I can understand their opinion because many a time I've discussed how much burned out i am on football and how I'd rather be doing something else so i can change the world and how I just want the free education...

I know football isn't my meal ticket in life but if i can make it 4 a couple years I can use the money 2 do something productive in life rather than being known as a life long athlete...it's SO much more 2 me than that...sometimes it frustrates me when ppl see as "Zeus, that big nigga that plays football"...I would rather be known as "Zach, the intellectual" or "Zach, the one that's always fly" or "Zach, that different guy" or "Zach, the writer" or"Zach, the guy that discovering himself" or "Zach, the guy that still wants 2 change the world"or even "Zach, the guy with the blog"

So I went back home this weekend and got chance 2 be with my family and just recharge and on Saturday I went 2 the infamous 6th street...and its just old 2 me...i feel like whether i was in Austin or San Angelo the night still would've been the same...I'm just bored with it...I'd rather have a movie night and cool out...but i don't really do that 'cause i don't really fuck with anybody at my school like that lately...I'm not lonely or anything but I just been lazy when it comes 2 socializing with people as of late....if u saw my facebook you'd think i was a boring ass person but once you get under the layer of bravado and "steez" that is Zeus you can really see me 4 what I am, a cheap, kind-hearted, loyal, moody, expressive, ever-evolving person.

Man where are the females at???? 4 the 1st time in life i don't have someone I can knock down or cool with on the regular...2 honest I'm used 2 having multiple females checkin' 4 me...it's gonna take some gettin' used 'cause since I hit high school I've always had chicks tellin' me how fine I am and how nice I am, etc, and over the years I kinda bought into it....I started thinkin' that because I'm an attractive, well-dressed, athletic, articulate, educated, black man that the world and everyone in it is just supposed 2 fall at my feet based off those facts alone and it doesn't always work that way

Me and some of my teammates are starting an organization 4 black male athletes called GQ: Gentleman of Quality. We've tried many a time but I feel about this go'round because we got a group of 16 people that appear to be very committed as whole 2 getting this group up and running and serving the purpose that it was created 4: getting young african american men 2 serve in the community and become a group that can successfully provide an example of what a young black man should be in college...

I'm might blog like this more often...y'all might not understand this...but it was very cleansing 2 write exactly what I was feeling at this exact point in time...I gotta lot more 2 say but I gotta class in a few minutes....

Man Crush: Kelis

There's an obvious reason why I have always loved Kelis and its not the big ass tatt down her back which is definitely sexy but the fact that I think she is fucking weird as shit and its intriguing... her music, her style, her whole image is outta this world!!!

Not to mention she thicker than a snicker...

and had every female across the nation screamin "im bossy" and cuttin their hair all crazy.

even has some celebs biting her style...

Wiz Khalifa- Kush and Orange Juice

Summer Goals!!!

Sooooo...outside of summer school and working I really plan on stepping my steez. For those who don't understand I'll be making significant strides in my fashion game....I'm doing a pretty good job as is but I haven't reached that level of fly that I want 2 be at lol...that reason being between college and football I've never had the chance 2 work during the semester and have my own money. While I been in college I've always depended on my parents 4 money, food, gas pretty much everything and it's getting old. I'm not saying I dont appreciate it but I want 2 be able 2 not have 2 call home ask 4 money all the time...it's like damn I'm about 2 be 21, I can't do this shit 4ever!!!

Anyways b4 I digress, since I'm gonna be working I'm gonna have a steady cash flow and with that being said I'll have access 2 a lot of items I've always wanted but couldn't get and these are just a few of the items I plan on copping b4 summers end...ENJOY!
