Since March I’ve been an Editorial Intern for Wonderland & Rollacoaster Magazine, and I have to share my experience thus far.
One Year…
My web hosting service just recently charged me another year for csays.co. I knew it was coming because they sent me countless emails beforehand. But after receiving the email receipt I’ve been thinking about how I’ve dropped the ball with my blog. I started csays.co a whole year ago and the big plans I wanted to achieve within that year were not reached. Goals like design, writing posts OFTEN, promoting it on social media, getting the readership up, way up.
For The Love of Hip-Hop
In university I read “And It Don’t Stop: the Best American Hip Hop Journalism of the Last 25 Years.” It’s a collection of articles spanning back some 30 years recording the rise and ultimate growth of hip-hop. Recently I’ve been reading it over and wanted to share my thoughts on it.
The book did a couple things… First it inspired me.
I Hate To Love Drake
I’m a lover and a hater type fan of Drake. Here are my reasons why:
He’s Fine
He’s a cornball: I imagine Drake to be that goofy friend that randomly says the corniest things, and laughs at his own jokes. There is something about the way he carries himself. He effortlessly makes himself a target. His meme appeal speaks for itself.
Reflecting
It’s been one year since I’ve been working at a pub in London. If someone a year ago told me I would still be working here right now, I wouldn’t have believed them. This is not where I imagined being a year later. But that’s life, it hardly goes as planned. Or it’s better to say life has a way of doing the planning for you.
