Notes to Self... and You

do not leave used plates
dirty for more than a day
more so if it's sauce,
it's hard as heck to get off
unless you use hot water




cleaning up your room
is better from time to time
than once per one long time,
same goes for doing laundry
and taking out your garbage

if it's cold outside
and you are Dominican
do not fear more clothes,
you may look weird to gringos
but they don't know what it's like

First Monday at College... and then some

wake up for math class

it is review from last year

sheep jump in my head,

think I'll go to sleep right here

wish I could go back to bed

period almost up

one more problem on the board

man I know all this,

he still writes on the blackboard

when will we get dismissed?

----

where did Kermit go?

now we have a new teacher

I think we changed blocks,

our teacher is now Asian

she says she is Sucking, man

when I don't sleep much

I get naturally high

hey, what do you think is that?

I don't get the new teacher

flat cat splat lalala hat

you shape it dis way

you can shape it dat way too

one, two, tree, sursday,

you can handwritten it suit

blippity, bloppity, blew

Friday Mornings & Saturdays

Yesterday was quite interesting, today seems promising too. College life has proven to be extremely spontaneous with a touch of hilarity. I think I'll stay.




too late to English
the teacher is now later
maybe he forgot,
I would like to surrender
to the sleep that I just fought




I wake up at three
of the afternoon that is
will not stop yawning,
last night was extremely fun
that's my Saturday morning




seeing people drunk
good music material
let's write one more song,
it will be about a friend
after ten rounds of beer pong

writing some lyrics
computer program homework
sleeping in the hall,
so many things in college
today I shall try them all

Starting Off

“College is a refuge from hasty judgment.”    
- Robert Frost


At some point during my second week as a college student I encountered this quote from a man that seems to be wise, at least he sounds so. I also learned about a form of ancient Japanese poetry called Tanka, predecessor even to the Haiku. Let us report from this "refuge from hasty judgement".




college has its ups
but it also has its downs
so I'll start this blog,
Engineering teacher speaks
somewhat like Kermit the frog




now Kermit the frog
lulling everyone to sleep
speaks about something,
nobody understands what
not even somewhat trying

Kermit dismissed us
about ten minutes early
pretty merciful,
now on to math discussion
this might be sort of better




walk to math classroom
it is full of strange people
this is not the same,
I realize I'm quite early
Kermit the frog is to blame
