Look, this isn't easy for me to say so I'm just going to say it. My name is Tina Jane Connell, T.J. to my friends, and I'm a biracial woman living in the City of Ottawa, Ontario. I was born in the City of Calgary, Alberta, to a Jamaican mother and Irish-Canadian father. Expressing myself through writing is one of my hobbies. A lot of things have been happening in my life lately, and I want to clear my head. See where I've gone wrong and retrace my steps, you know? I recently moved back to Ottawa, the town where I studied for my B.A. and my MBA. I miss Calgary but I got unfinished business in Ottawa.
Recently I went to visit my alma mater, Carleton University, the place where I earned my MBA. I missed my school, even though it's been five years since I graduated. I am thirty years old, a time when most women are getting married and having brats. Me? I'm unsure where my path lies. I am attracted to both women and men, and I've had disastrous relationships with both. I don't see myself as some woman's partner or some man's wife. I see myself walking a lonely road until the day I die. And that's just unacceptable.
While walking through the Carleton University library, I ran into my former classmate Khadija Wahid, who was apparently a teacher's assistant now. Seeing her brought back so many memories. Khadija looked real good in a stylish white blouse and dark gray silk pants, along with a dark gray vest. Standing five-foot-nine, chubby and dark-skinned, with large breasts and a booty that just won't quit, the woman I once called my Somali Goddess was as lovely as ever. Hello Jen, I said, and gave her a hug. Hello Tina, she said, hesitating a bit. I resisted the urge to give her big, heart-shaped ass a squeeze ( for old time's sakes ) and complimented her on her figure. You look wonderful, I said, giving her the once-over.
