Sorry I haven't posted much of anything in a while.  Been quite busy lately.  However, I have more poems coming.  Also, I've debated writing a Wattpad novel. :)

This morning, I heard about the following news story:
          "The University of Wisconsin Madison and the University of Colorado Denver are now offering a 'Problems with Whiteness' course."  These colleges claim that white people in America "consciously and/or unconsciously" consider themselves to be better than other races.
          
          My reaction:
          Guys...that's not true!  I'm white and I don't think that way.  And I know tons of other white people who don't think that way, either.
          
          As I heard about this, the words of Martin Luther King, Jr. echoed through my mind.
          "I have a dream that one day, my children will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."
          
          NOT by the color of their skin, but by the CONTENT OF THEIR CHARACTER.
          
          I can say with certainty that Martin Luther King, Jr. would've been shaking his head while hearing about this news story.
          
          Please, pass this message on to other people.  If anything, at least pass the quote on to other people.  I am convinced that it is a message that people need to hear once more.

Thank you SO much for 10 followers! :D
          ...
          Lol I know it's a tiny milestone that many, many Wattpad writers have achieved.  I probably look so silly for sending a message about this.  However, you can't get to the top without taking the first step.  And progress is progress! :)
          
          Congratulations, @jaynadpatel!  You are my 10th follower! :)
          I'm glad I've been able to put smiles on your faces, poetry aces! :)

I've realized that Wattpad already puts "by TheTyphoon" on my writing to begin with.  Therefore, I don't need to write it whenever I post something.  What will I do about this?  I'm removing my "by TheTyphoon" lines from my already published works, and I won't write that line on any of my new stuff.  Just thought you guys should know. :)
