Queer Kid of Color

Since being the Queer Kid of Color I have had the chance to interview lots of people–that was since August. This title has brought me a full page in The Advocate, two pages of whatever I want to write in Clik Magazine, three free trips, the opportunity to write for four magazines and I ask myself where the hell did that guy go?

Today, the Nat’l Black Justice Coalition emailed me asking if I would be interested in covering their event in March. I gladly accepted. It was this email that made me realize that I need to make a fierce ass come back. Not the personal queer kid of color comeback, but I need to go back to interviewing people, writing stories of importance. In short, go back to the way that landed me a chance in getting all this attention.

I’m coming back…soon.

Coming this Friday evening.

Logo, a division of Viacom Inc.’s MTV Networks, today announced that it plans to bring Noah’s Arc, its hit flagship series about four African- American gay friends in Los Angeles to the silver screen in 2008 as Logo’s first original theatrical film.

Noah’s Arc will join Sex and the City, Star Trek and The Simpsons as yet another fan-driven series finding a home at the multiplex, opening the door to greater storytelling depth, expanded creative opportunities and new audiences. Currently in development, the film is expected to pick up after the show’s second season cliffhanger finale and continue with an even bolder and provocative storyline. The film will leave the door open for sequels, additional television seasons and specials. The series is created by and executive produced by Patrik-Ian Polk and his Tall Skinny Black Boy Productions.

Ok, here’s my update on college! Yippy! I arrived on campus at 3PM. I asked a girl to show me to my place and she agreed to. The trucks were ridding the campus of the snow and so the girl said to me “Since the paths are being cleaned up right now, we’ll have to go through the icy grass. Be careful you might slip and there’s dirt inside the snow.” I looked at her and was like “Honey, I’m a queen. I don’t walk through snow.” Ok, I’m lying. I didn’t say that. I asked if we could just wait. I guess she was impatient because she then said “ok let’s just take my car.”

When I arrived to my apartment what I found was a complete mess! I kid you not. The living room was filthy, the kitchen was ugh, and the dining area a mess. The apartment definitely needed a touch of gay. I was more than happy to touch it. I entered my room and found that it was too bland. There were no colors in it. It just looked like blah. We can’t paint the rooms, so.

My suitemates are Jamaican or Haitian. I can’t tell which one they are. I mean, they speak a different type of English. They’re cool.

Story time! A girl saw me and greeted me and she saw my rainbow chain and she was all like “oh that’s so cute and retro.” I looked at her and asked “where you from?” and she says “ Syracuse .” I thought in my mind oh hell. I was like “well girl you is fierce” She says, “I am? Thanks…What does that mean and oh my God I love your chain. I need to get one.” I said, “oh that’s cool. I wear it because it symbolizes my pride.” She goes, “Pride? Wait a minute…You are not…gay?” Gosh…I can go on.

College is freaking expensive! Goodness. My suitemate has to pay $800 in books. I spent $30 in two days just on food. Goodness gracious Lord almighty.

Im moving to college this sunday! I’m so excited and nervous at the same time. I have my own room, but my dorm I have to share with two other roommates. I have a kitchen, stove, dishwasher, dining area, stove and a refrigerator.

Yippy!
