Ep. 10 First Semester Done!!
First semester is a wrap! I'm grateful but I'm also really tired and personal life crises have been popping up and making school take a backseat. With that, this quick episode covers some of my lessons from this semester and how I'm going to try and move forward better for the new semester. RIP to Aaron Watts.

Ep. 6 Grad School Sacrifices SUCK.
This week I was way off. Pretty sure it's because I missed the Greatest Homecoming on Earth at the illustrious North Carolina A&T State University (kinda, not really lol). This is the first of many sacrifices I'll be making but it hurt me to my core. Listen as I walk through these emotions last week.
