People Say I'm YOUNG ...


Shad Shaddy is 19

I was 18 for a whole 365 Days and Today I wanna reflect and give you some Insight on my Experiences ... But before I even start I just wanna let the people involved in my life that 19 is gonna be BETTER, so I hope yall REASY! :-) Life's Too GOOD! Anyways Let's Go ...

College has dominated the last year of my life but the experiences have taught me a lot and I am very grateful for the people and opportunities I have come across most of which I will list below:

My FRICKEN MOM


A lot has happened to me and I'm sorry if I didn't acknowledge it above, but I made a conscious decision at 18 which I believe is probably the BEST decision I have made in my 18 years, people might disagree but I don't really care LIFE is TOO SHORT to get MAD so with the Help of my "Little BIG Brother" Ibro I gave up getting MAD ... It has made my LIFE better and I try to spread the wealth of this incredible knowledge everyday because people are mad or complaining way too often and I think LIFE would just be better if you everyone became more aware of how invested we get into being annoyed and I believed if people could learn to channel that ENERGY to something else they could be way more Productive. You know how they say when you get older you get wiser, that's not really TRUE, as people get older they get MADDER, It's the weirdest thing ... I LOVE kids and you'll notice they are Happy 24/7 for the MOST Part! :-) So Take Notes next time you see the KIDS Playing and I wish that EVERYONE is Happier in my NEXT YEAR of LIFE! My GOAL at 19 Make Everyone around me Happier, Minus my Difficult Actions that are NECESSARY to Strengthen a Relationship ... lol Basically anything I do with friends is with good intentions so I hope people done take anything Personal!

Anyways This Year, I plan on doing some things that I've NEVER done, let me know what yall think:

Going to Brazil

Going to California

Visiting Friends at College

Invading College Friends Homes

Bringing Friends back to Philly
Making More Music Videos! :-)

Girls ...

As DUMB as this sounds ... "I think I got yall FIGURED OUT!"

Details to COME! lol

Jay-Z and The Blueprint III (3) ...


To Hate or Not To Hate!



I'm not a Jay - Z Fan ... I dunno the guy just doesn't make the hairs on my arm stand up! lol
But I do like some of his songs off the Bluprint III:
"Run This Town"
"On to the Next One"
"Star is Born"
"Empire State of Mind" (Kinda)
"Venus vs. Mars"

But my Favorite of ALL is

"HATE!"

I don't hate on Jay - Z, I just don't like him, his lyrics are good but his delivery doesn't appeal to me but on this album I think the beats compliment his flow and these above songs are cool!

lol ... The best part about this album is that "Ima Hater" and this song speaks right to me ...

His line: "I made my self so easy to LOVE!" Cracks me up Every time ...

I don't think ima hater I just think I'm not a fan and people think that he's so good that there must be something wrong with me to be in disagreement!

O Well! :-)

How To Be a GREAT Friend ...

A Few Things I've Picked up in MY Day!

There are Three Phases to a RELATIONSHIP/ FRIENDSHIP! Enjoy ...

To go along with each phase are some key points ... There are 3 Key points then there's 1 Major piece of advice I wanna leave you with ...


1) Initial - This is the 1st Meet and Greet this stage usually has high implications b/c most people foolishly make up there minds about a person entirely after their first encounter but try your best to have a good first impression.

The key to mastering this phase is leaving a lasting impression is REMEMBER the LITTLE THINGS! For Instance a Middle Name, Hometown, or Hobby, Birthday ... If there aren't any Little Things generated from the conversation create them yourself. For Ex: What's your favorite color, favorite food, favorite sport, etc. This will make you "seem" personable and score you bonus points if you actually remember these things and bring them out at the appropriate times.

To Counter REMEMBERING the LITTLE THINGS you have to REMEMBER the BIG THINGS ... lol Like Names, Other Major Info (Academic Major, Age, Year in School) ...

If you can do these two things you will successfully navigate phase 1) ...

2) Developmental - This is when you begin to feel a person out and see what there really about, so if you make it here you've either accepted the person as a friend or they somehow keep showing up in random places or have clung to someone else in your circle of friends.

One way to master the Developmental Phase is to be Respectful. This is easier said than done, but in order to be respectful you should give people there space, next you should have good body language and eye contact when your talking to someone or in there presence. Lastly, you should speak at a decent volume because if you talk too loud or too low you'll seem disrespectful uninterested or displeased to be in their presence so it's best to have a good volume.

The best key to being respectful is to LISTEN. Too OFTEN people don't listen and this is an easy way to ruin a relationship. Also a very important feature to any relationship is being able to hold a conversation with someone. If you have a tough time listening the developmental phase will be virtually impossible, so I highly encourage you be a good listener and your relationships/ friendships will develop smoothly.

3) Progressive - In this face you determine how serious you wanna make things. Either you want to be good friends, you want to "use" this person for lack of a better word or you want to rid of them altogether. If you make it to this phase then I'd say your doing pretty good and that person will likely be a good friend, but its your decision to make.

The Final Phase requires you to take some responsibility for your actions. in order to have a successful Progressive Phase you need to be accountable. This is simple, don't make promises you can't keep, be honest, respond to text and calls, and finally be honest with your friends. If you've successfully managed to work through the previous steps they won't take it too personally if you tel them bad news or are unable to do something as long as your straight forward with them. As a friend you should want people to be able to count on you and vice-versa it's at the root of all successful relationships and will help determine whether this person is worthy or a long-term commitment.

You and your friend should have more in common then both thinking Brad Pitt or Beyonce Knowles are HOT! That won't take you friendship very far it should be about MORE! If you have similar Goals, Motives, or Purposes for your LIFE then there's a good chance that you'll both be happy and growing simultaneously to your friendship. Otherwise when you surround yourself with "negative people" you don't tend to see results or and you lose site of your priorities as you'll notice most people look to there friends for support so if you don't choose them wisely, your setting yourself up for FAILURE!

Being a GREAT Friend isn't EASY ... Nor is it Always PRETTY, but if you take what I said above into account no matter how rough things get for you and your friends if you have a bigger purpose of a FRIENDSHIP than BEYONCE you will be just FINE!

Unless someone is your BEST FRIEND your going to have problems! It's the way of the WORLD!

Text Message Mania ...

As WEIRD as this may sound I "LOCK" Text Messages ... I feel like now is a good time to reveal to the world what some of these text say ... They are good, bad , and ugly ... I'm not going to put names next to the text, but I will color code them to tell whether the text was from a Boy or a Girl. Boys Text will be in RED and Girls Text will be in PURPLE ... Without Further Ado Here they go ... I find them Entertaining and I think useful as its interesting how quickly someone may feel about you at a certain point in time then a few days later things change but anyway ...

Let's Go ...

Rashad Campbell's LOCKED Text Messages 2008 - 2009 "The Goods" lol

I think we each have to complete our OWN circles. At least I have to complete mine! That's why I've said to you , I don't deserve you right now! (My Circle will prolly never be complete till I'm married ... But I'm liking the circle that I have right now ... "You don't deserve me ... I really don't understand that whole thing but hopefully that makes sense sooner rather than later")

"Your growth is stopped when you become addicted to another person." Even if it doesn't apply to you , it applies to me. (Addicted ... I dunno In Love Definitely ... But things are changing so ...)


I think your a great guy and a good friend. Your sweet and caring and reliable. That's completely unedited =) I just enjoy being difficult (She still holding back, O well denial is kinda sorta like insanity so she must be crazy! Not bad crazy, but crazy none the less)

Yes I am a QUEEN. Yes I sleep wild, Don't know how I feel about being a FREAK, and sleepovers are a MUST so we'll see! (Girl is SOOOO Conceited ... lol Definitely a Freak and I bet she goes with the Queen Size BED! :-)


Lol, you always make me laugh ... (Try my BEST :-)


I'm not talking to you right now, so when I'm ready to talk I'll let you know ... (Guess I messed up, get it together Shad)

You might be my best guy friend ... I'm so LUCKY (Boy be Cheesin the MOST! lol)

Sorry, I went to sleep on you but text me when you can ... (I'm not gone front I was sorta pissed last night! :-)

Aww, Rashad because you love me but I miss you too, I keep on getting ready to text youand ask you what your doing but then I remember you're far far far away :( (Dang, Definitely Miss Her :-(


So you left and I didn't see you but I will be texting you daily to see howyou're doing and we can talk about how we miss each other ..... :) (I like the sounds of that plan! :-)

That Wraps Up the LOCKED Text ... Now I feel like I can get rid of these things now that I actually have them saved somewhere else ... I encourage people to lock certain text because you never know when they might come in handy! :-)

Thanks for Tuning In ... Hope this was Somewhat Entertaining

Hope You Enjoyed ...

Trey Songz - Fabolous - Mario October 4th @ Cornell University

From FB Description of Event Invitation:

Cornell University's Minority Concert Fund Advisory Board (MCFAB), Cornell Concert Commission (CCC), and the African, Latino, Asian, and Native American (ALANA) Program Board present Fabolous, Trey Songz, and Mario.

Trey Songz, a male R&B artist from Virginia and formerly known by the alias "Prince of Virginia" debuted in 2005 with his album I Gotta Make It. Rising in popularity ever since, Trey just released his third studio album, Ready, in August 2009 followed by his infectious summer smash "I Need A Girl." Trey Songz has also been known to collaborate on many songs with Fabolous, giving a swaggering croon to Fabolous' smooth rhymes.

Fabolous is a rapper from Brooklyn, NY who first hit the scene in 2001 with his single "Can't Deny It" from his hit album Ghetto Fabolous. Heavily influenced by southern hip hop from ATL, Fabolous has kept strong for nearly a decade and just released his fifth studio album, Loso's Way, in July 2009 to great critical acclaim. Now Fabolous, riding high on his summer success, makes his way to Barton Hall at Cornell University on October 4th.


Mario is not only a popular R&B performer, but also a Renaissance Man of the entertainment industry with credits in acting, modeling, dancing, and philanthropic activities. He catapulted onto the scene in 2002 with the hit single "Just a Friend 2002" off his self-titled debut album and kept the success going with "Let Me Love You" from 2004's Turning Point. With his fourth album, D.N.A., to be released on 10/13 (just a little over a week after the concert) we'll be sure to hear his summer single "Break Up" and hopefully many more new ones.


Show should be GOOD! I'll be getting there LATE, but There none the less so I hope people can make it out ...

Students: $17.00 Advance, $20.00 Day of Show. General Public: $22.00 Advance, $25.00 Day of Show

Rashad's Academic Portfolio Fall 2009

So the Course Load this Time around isn't TOO BAD

CourseNameCredits
AEM 2210Financial Accounting3.0
BIOPL 2400Green World/Blue Planet3.0
COMM 2010Oral Communication3.0
DSOC 1101Introduction To Sociology3.0
ECON 1110Introductory Microeconomics3.0
Total Credits:15

With 15 credit I should keep busy, but I shouldn't be in the Library 24/7 like most of the other Cornellians! :-)

AEM 2210: Financial Accounting seems like a cool class b/c so far in every Entrepreneurship class I have take they say that no matter what route you take in the Business World Entrepreneurial or not you better have a good handle on you Finances and the Accounting. Professor Little seems like a decent person and he has a cool personality so I'm looking forward to the Semester!

BioPl 2400: Green World/ Blue Planet seems like a very interesting class. I haven't taken a Bio course since my Freshman Year of high school so 'm touching up on all of the terminology and what not. Professor Silva has a great passion for the topic so this should bring some excitement to the class.

Comm 2010: Oral Communications will be a Fun class. As most people know I somewhat enjoy public speaking so this shouldn't be that difficult for me but with a more intensified evaluation I'm eager to see how I'll do. Our Discussion group seems pretty cool so I think the environment is healthy it will just be a mater of me executing or not. Professor Berggren loves what she does and you can feel her enthusiasm in every lecture, plus the TA's are pretty cool.

DSoc 1101: Developmental Sociology is a Weird Class that analyzing things you think about but on NEW Levels. lol I think it often confuses our professor when he poses a question to the class, but I like how it requires a diverse set of skills in terms of thinking it seems like it will be a FUN class so we'll see. Professor Hirschl is a cool down to earth person and I like the way he leads the class and how he covers the material thoroughly.

Econ 1110: Microeconomics ... I really dunno what to say Other than I hope it goes better this time around. It's a NEW Year and as a Sophomore I'm confident in how I will perform Academically so this class will be a testament to if I can really CHANGE! Professor Burkhauser is a iClicker FEIGN and so far I've done pretty good ... lol ... But it's week ONE so lets see how this goes ...

Schools IN I'm OUT!

Promise not to BORE yall with Academics, but I had to get this out there ...

Emile Chang woke up for a 6:30am Practice at 6:17am, then gets to the stadium at 6:23am but still manages to make it out to a Full Padded Practice on TIME … His Belt wasn’t buckled and his Shoes weren’t tied, so when Coach decided to start practice off with “Conditioning” Emile wasn’t too HAPPY to say the LEAST!

“Never Give Up & Never Give In!”
