Hanging in there....(and happy birthday to me)

Life has been a little rough lately. I recently made one of the most difficult decisions of my academic career. It's inappropriate to discuss here, but I will say its left me kind of numb. Tomorrow, August 25th is my 24th birthday. 24 years old: dam! I cant believe pretty soon i'll be saying that I'm closer to 30 than 18. Jeez. I feel like an old-man now, but I guess in this day and age that's truly a blessing. I move out my apartment in Harlem next week. Darryl will be here with me starting tomorrow. We'll also be at the Latex Ball this Saturday night (you all should be there too, its free and over 4,000 people will be in attendance).This fall will mark the beginning of new outlooks and new priorities.
More soon,
Frank Leon Roberts
More soon,
Frank Leon Roberts


Happy Birthday.
Don't sweat over the academic decision, you can always change your mind.

Happy B-Day kid! My birthday was Jul 25, but it does not get as bad as you think the closer you get to 30. I am 28 now and when I was 25 I felt the same way you did.

Celebrate your birthday and use 25 to move in a positive direction. You have a great blog, great intellect, now move in a direction that fully thinks about everything before you make final decisions. Good luck in what can be a prosperous future.

24. Yeah, it's one of those birthdays inbetween major ones. Counting down used to mean something before you hit 21. After that they are a succession before you get to 25, 30, etc.
But hey, enjoy.
