Check it Out... Straight from Brooklyn!! I am Sam. Sam I am. Or, Sam am iz. I am a Biblical Studies Major, for now, and by His Grace I am actively pursuing to be the man that God has created me to be. In meeting this demand, I have chosen to be a writer of different disciplines that reflect my culture, maturing convictions, and my aesthetics in regards to art. I long to see the original Creator of the complex world who filled it with nature and humanity, who currently sustains creation’s existence, and who structured the world’s redemption and demonstrates it in history. I will see Him, the Creator in the image and form of the already glorified LORD Jesus Christ.

Its Ray Ray!!!

This is a project that I am happy directing. One of the most personable and honest people that I have met on this campus has agreed to do a little radio podcast so here is the promo. More to come. Also, "The Real Ray Ray Show" has nothing to do with PBU, nor is it connected with any PBU staff or personnel. This is a side project that I am sharing with you all so you can get a different perspective. Stay tuned folks for more. This is one of the projects I have been working on.

The Petition (Visit My Facebook Page)

Okay here the deal ya. I have heard some crazy notion that my style is outdated. You say Im stuck in a past decade, I rather say that I am a walking historian, a collector of culture, educating my generation about its roots through its fashion. These... are not mere clothes to me, they represent ideals and values in which I subscribe to and I think that those things are what the current generation is missing. Social conscience as well as personal awareness.

But enough of my defense. There are people who would like to see I change for a day. They would like me to leave the narrow path I tip toe on and run the broad road of today's current fashion trends. Some people are even offering to take me out shopping to pick out outfits. So for once in a lifetime, once in history and only this time, Sam Cornet will put his convictions, beliefs, comfort and pride aside and he will explore the current world of Hip Hop. For my hip hop heads do not call me a sell out. I will find you....lol....nah im serious..... I am only building bridges with this new generation.

So if a hundred people vote in favor for this task, I will do this.

If you are in favor of this reply:
Change the Game!!

If not then reply:
Represent the Raw Real!!!!


So stop by my Facebook page and vote ya'll.


For those that dont know.....

I dont understand you..... Write English Please!!

As I sit here finishing up homework, I realized that too many of the books we read do not do a good job of communicating to us. Lofty speech and sentences does not impress me. Lofty speech and sentences tend to anger me and I tend to walk away with no interest. Which brings me to my question, should reading be a language of its own?

Ive been told that I sometimes write the way I talk. Which is why I try to correct whatever I write. To some degree, I do not see that as an issue. If my audience in which I am writing to understands my dialect should I not write that way? I mean we can go to the extremes of broken English and Ebonics. Though I am a black man from the hood, I am not an advocate for that. Speech should be clear to everyone. But some "scholars" write material that do not communicate ideas well because the presentation of their ideas are way too technical. We as Americans do not talk as technical as a written grammar demands. For example, we talk in contractions.

I question the idea of an intelligence that does not allow successful transfer of information. I question the idea of an intelligence that enables one to flaunt his years of study in order to intimidate those who have less of an encounter of the subject matter. If you are a teacher or a writer, do me and the millions of college students who do not understand what you are saying a favor, TALK AND WRITE CLEAR ENGLISH!!!!

A Thought

Whats up PBU perspectives. Its been a minute now with the amount of blogs I've written. There is so much to express and of course being that I am writing on the public domain of the internet, there is a lot to filter.

PBU is going through a lot of changes. Renovations happened throughout the summer to accommodate the new students and of course you guys the perspectives. Courses and curriculms are being thought thorough, the dorms on campus are constantly being evaluated and student organizations are thinking through how to foster a more socially diverse student body. The blogs site is an example of that endeavor to get people who are interested in Philadelphia Biblical University connect to the education is offers. It with that that I realized that this blog site that I write on is a contribution to not only the perspectives of the incoming freshman but also the perspectives of the upperclassmen that are already here.

So it is with that that I announce that I am working on a radio show with probably the most personable people here at this school. Look out for that. It will be social critiques from the perspectives of the students on campus. Also, PBU's own Inherit the Fall and I will be working together so look out for what happens with that.
