I’ve been a fan of Aubrey Drake
Graham for a long time. Even as far back as when he used to play a character
named Jimmy on a show called, Degrassi: The
Next Generation. This was way
before he was rapping. I always thought he was cute and had the biggest crush
on him. The first time I heard, Best I
Ever Had, I was hooked. I couldn’t believe he was rapping, and to see how
much his career has grown has been incredible. I even got to see him in concert
once, when his Take Care album came
out. And it was a night I’ll never forget. It’s wild when I meet people who
diss him and his work, and say things like, he’s
overrated and corny, but I don’t
think so. I think he’s cool. One of the things I love about his music is that
he sings and raps, and that’s something special. I also used to have a bunch of
his posters hanging up in my bedroom, but took them down years ago – they seem
like they’ll be more fitted for a home office space in my bachelorette pad. His earliest album,
Thank Me Later, really showed his
range and all the following work he’s done, proves his staying
power. He produces great material, and I can’t wait to see what he drops next.
Ghosting: the practice of ending a personal relationship with someone by suddenly and without explanation withdrawing from all communication. I’ve been ghosted by every guy I’ve met within the past two years. About six to be exact. · The first guy pursued me and then got shady whenever I asked him about what he did for a living and where he lived. When he started dodging and avoiding questions, wouldn’t initiate dates, and slowly stopped keeping in touch with me altogether, eventually, all communication ceased. · The second guy was someone I met through a family member. He was super cool, very smart, handsome, and funny, but didn’t want to be in a relationship and acted like he didn’t want to be seen with me publicly. When we had plans to meet for an outing, he didn’t show up, and then texted me about a week later with an apology. We chilled at my place a few times, had a few phone conversations, and exchanged occasional texts, but eventually he stopped responding to me
