Naira has no gender

When first reading this plays Program, I was not sure what to expect from this play. Thinking things were going to be dull and boring i sat in the theater of Backdoor Playhouse, slouching as i dropped my backpack on the floor below me.

The play actually came out to be very entertaining and actually made me laugh a few times. the characters were on point with their lines. I hadn't really noticed any mess ups or missed lines; maybe once or so.

The play was about Aina and her husband, Otunla, who are engaged to be married. Only problem is, Ainas' parents aren't supportive of the new ways of marriage. Her parents still want the traditional, expensive and extravagant weddings. But Aina would rather have a small marriage due to their financial situations. Her friends Dokune and Debbie attempt to figure out a way for them to get money for the wedding but they really didn't come up with anything.

Most of the play dealt with Ania and her parents arguing and bickering over the wedding and the lack of money. fast forward to the end of things they DO end up getting married regardless of the parents disappointment of not having a big expensive wedding and they live happily ever after, or close to it.

Probate Season now at an end

This year, of course, has been my first year in college. I was able to attend three Probates this year. Probates are something NPHC fraternities and sororities do. It is the coming out of the new members. This past month, i have been able to witness the Ques, Alphas, and Zetas come out. They have all been pretty interesting with parties following soon after for the Ques and the Alphas. I have to say that the Alphas had the best probate this year. They weren't as late as the other frats and sors. and had a lot of stepping and interesting things. Their party was also quite interesting with quite a few fights, ha. The first Caucasian ever to join a NPHC frat here at tech also came out this Thursday. Everyone was pretty excited about that, and he seemed very happy. I thought it qwas pretty cool besides the cold and the long waits.

December is here and that means Christmas!

Hmm, so now Christmas time has come from around the corner. The month of December has finally landed and everything becomes all Jolly and Merry... except many people now a days are trying to remove the whole "Christmas" thing and replace it with... "Holiday". Why? I feel as if its because society and government is trying to remove "Christ" from our country - slowly but surely. I understand other country's or "religions" celebrate Hanukkah and Kwanzaa, but really there is no need to remove the term "Christmas" just so we wont "offend" anyone. If you're out shopping in the month of December, then there is a 9 out of 10 chance that you're going to be CHRISTMAS shopping, not "Holiday" shopping. You buy a CHRISTMAS tree -not a Holiday tree. People sing CHRISTMAS carols - not Holiday carols.

I could only imagine if society really does manage to totally remove Christ from Christmas or even America, how things would change and are changing. When they removed Christ from our schools kids began shooting each other ha. Anyways the thought of replacing Christmas with Holiday is just dumb sounding.



All i have to say is Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
