RACK 'EM BITCH

RACK 'EM BITCHBeckxy says (21 Aug '12)
Today was my first day of college. I have decided to take it slow because as a 37 year old, I was afraid I may be quite rusty. I feel like Billy Madison except I don't see an imaginary penguin running around nor do I subscribe to any dirty magazines called 'Drunk Chicks'..lol
Anyway, I am starting off my first class with a writing course. I had been nervous as all hell because I was scared of everything imaginable. My clothes are not the greatest. I haven't had my hair done, or cut since April so at this point, I'm looking like a long haired wildebeest in need of some serious night games. However, all of the fear subsided when I got into class, looked around, smiled, said good morning, and saw the teacher who was wearing crocs, stretchy pants, and an older style sweater. I thought, "Okay cool, I got this". I took a seat up front. I was one of the first to arrive. I thought I would get a lot of crap from the kids being that I'm a big girl. I was prepared to be bullied, but to my surprise; as they started to file in, most of the young guys took seats either in back of me or right aside of me. Well, that was weird..lol Must of smelled good or something, idk..lol But it made me feel more comfy knowing a lot of the youngens chose to sit up front aside of me.
Anyway... to get to my point. I had worked myself up all weekend long, and all night long while at work. My anxiety level is an all time high over this. The teach wanted to get to know us. So, she had us write some personal things down to her as a first class assignment, like; what was our major, what are our goals, how do we feel about writing, and to explain anything that may help her get to know us. Lastly, she wanted us to tell her something about ourselves that made us who we are as adults, something out of the norm that individualizes us. This would be something that she said she may put down on paper for everyone in the class to see. Well, the first thing that popped-up in my head that I was this extreme, crazy Kid Rock fan and that I had traveled and gone to more then 50 shows, and three 'Chillin the Most' cruises...lol
So, I come home after my first day of going back to school. Pour myself a cup a coffee, come into the living room, and there it is. The framed Kid Rock poster adorning my wall. It's a picture of him at a pool table in a semi-dark room with a lot of light coming in from a single window. His look is very serious with his eyes focused on a the cue ball ready to take his shot. Underneath it reads "RACK 'EM BITCH".
There's a first time for everything, but I never looked at the picture as inspirational until now.
~Smiles~ Yep, I got this bitch :)17Filed Under: Express The Kid Rock In You!

just to comment on the vet
just to comment on the vet hospital---the Detroit Facility (named after John Dingell) has been really good to my dad. The doctors took good care of him when he went for occasional visits up until January of 2011 when he took a turn for the worst. The problem was he could no longer make the trip downtown from Downriver. Ironically, the old VA was located in Allen Park (which is Downriver) but it was razed after the new facility in Detroit was built. All the years it was Downriver, my dad didn't need the services, but when he did need the services, he had to travel downtown. Long story short, Dingell (who is so powerful in Washington) was able to procure money for the Detroit VA. I wish every vet hospital could be funded similarly but sadly, there just isn't enough money to go around. It is a shame.
Beckxy: keep us posted...and you go girl!
RJL... you're scaring me with
RJL... you're scaring me with the statistics class..lol. Great advice.. very inspiring too :)
Missy.. awesome story !! Thanks for sharing it. Kinda funny how our dad's don't really share stories like that unless they are out and about amongst their brothers. Sad to hear about the VA hospital. I never had the chance to look inside ours, but it's location is horrible for our elder vets here in town. They have to drive a good 45 mins from here to get to it :(
Thanks for sharing again, you, by all means, did not hi-jack the thread..lol. I believe it's great timing to share especially with the news of the wonderful things that Rock has given with his heart... keeps our awareness continual and makes us think about what we can do, as well. Good things are heard, but Great things have done inspired :)
Hey Bex-*I know* it was a
Hey Bex-*I know* it was a lame attempt last night but that is all I could muster up! I tried though and wanted to give you encouragement & return the smile to you I just saw & read your post and it made me smile in the midst of my evening last night So Thank You- I am so proud of you & your courage to step out of your comfort zone to better your future for you & your family! Please don’t ever doubt or psyche yourself out! You do Have this!! No Doubt! & Thanks for Sharing your First Day with Us! It was a great read!
I have some writing to do myself-Had an emotional day yesterday- happy, sad, disheartened uplifted, mad, pissed off , dis-belief, etc etc~ just a wave of emotions and I need to type it out & I want some MAJOR awareness and action taken in a *constructive way* in a forum that makes a change! *not here* yet it’s a start! Maybe because you had/have to write something personal it made me think I too have to start writing and Move Mountains if I have to!! Believe me once I start I don’t stop! For real! I don’t stop til I see good results!!
Sorry It took 3 post to convey this message OMG lol continue on 3 part post
Oh, and fuck the dress. I was
Oh, and fuck the dress. I was so poor through college and I had friends rich and poor. They didn't care if they were good people. I drove and awful burned orange datsun b210 my first semester that I paid 500 for and one day when my tags were out my good friend who drove a new Fiat helped me throw mud on the plates so that I did not get pulled over. We laughed so hard. Thanks to my hard work I now have a 2004 dodge 1500 truck w 5.7 hemi, 2005 ford 150 xlt w triton, 2009 dodge challenger RT w 5.7 hemi, 1972 mustang Mach 1 saweet!, and a 1988 Nissan sentra I gave to my son to save him on gas, a 1970 enduro bike Yamaha, 2 2006 jet skis , and 2 fishing boats. Not to mention a 400,000 lake house that is paid for complete. So keep that in mind as you are struggling through school as it is all worth it. By the way, I paid for all these things my self as well as my college. No rich parents and my student loans are paid off. You can do it!
You will do great ! I had
You will do great ! I had been out of school many years and went back and graduated twice with honors. I helped teach anatomy and physiology if you need help. Their were days I cried over my books laid out over a king sized bed until 2 in the morning and when I passed my statistics course I sold my book and bought a cross necklace and prayed to God that I never had to take another math class especially having to do with statistics. But the math , which I thought what in the hell am I going to use this for other than drug calculations- which pharmacy did, taught me a type of reasoning that you can't learn from anything else and I am so grateful to have made it through those courses. Just try not to look at the big picture all at once and set small goals and then those small goals will eventually add up to bigger ones and before you know it you will be done. And whatever you do, do not!!!! Stop. Keep going through summer sessions even because you can get a lot out of the way in a short period of time. Take some easy classes with some hard so that you are not overwhelmed and you will do just fine.
Great read! You're going to
Great read! You're going to do just awesome! You've got it in the bag, Becky! So proud of you, girl!

Missy... been a long time since that song pop-up.. rarely if ever - one of them forgotten gems. Love your take ; )
Cedar...wtf lol Well it's kinda crazy but I saw on the news today that it was exactly one year ago today that last year's big earthquake shook from Virginia Beach on up to New England. They were touring down in Bristol, VA and then we went to the show down at Virginia Beach the next night, the day of the earthquake... (this is what happens when Kid Rock and TBT make an appearance on the east coast..lol) Saw the poster for 10 bucks at the merchandise stand, and had to have one. I have a picture of it somewhere.
Becky: Where did you get that
Becky: Where did you get that poster? I tried to Google it... came up with a bunch of porn...lol
I hope you share some more of
I hope you share some more of your work with us.
Hahaha.. Laura, ya totally
Hahaha.. Laura, ya totally made me laugh out loud. mmm hmmm... She said she likes to posts songs and pictures up on the board for inspiration to write. I thought to myself.. love for her to post up "You never met a mf'er quite like me" tff. Still have to mention how old I feel experiencing the class room, for all the older folks like me who have not been in a classroom in quite some time, they now have a projector unit hanging from the ceiling that is directly linked to their computer. So for anything she wants to write on the white marker boards.. (for you real old folks, it's what they call blackboards back then where they used the chalk..lol :)~.... but all she has to do is type what she wants up there. Wild!
Thanks Blue.. she may not
Thanks Blue.. she may not care for some of the words but if she wants to see personalized.. that I can do..lol. Thanks Ma ! The picture is nostalgic - classy cool like James Dean, Rebel without a cause... except this is modern day - flying high, Kid Rock, Devil without a Cause. Now all I need is a picture of TBT chilling playing cards.. Top Dog Playing Poker picture ; )
The best piece of writing
The best piece of writing advice I have ever received was this: write about what you know. I suspect you will be writing many papers on your Kid experiences. Good luck on your endeavors!
Bex, you could just turn in
Bex, you could just turn in this piece as an assignment and get an A. Best of luck, you will love it and do very well.
