Wise's Questions

NOTE: I am so used to the other side of the table, the other side of the microphone.

1. If tomoro you were offered identical lucrative career opportunities, 1 in TV news, the other in edu diversity, which would you select.

I'd stick with journalism and merge my other passion. I was once told "It's good to have multiple passions." I'm trying to make my life proof positive of that saying. I want to create the opportunity which works for me. I could see myself if I don't make it on-air, producing making sure diversity and diverse voices are reflected on-air, and then doing recruiting and training for a major media company.

2. What's the best thing you've learned about life in the midwest?

I learned that's it's almost a different culture out here. It reminds you that America has such a rich tapestry which is reflected in the different people. All the different people reflect a unique patchwork and quilt. It's not about being a melting pot, but rather a quilt which has everyone's identities sewn together. Some parts of the quilt going look more aesthetically pleasing than others though, east coasters we got our style.

3. When was the last time you saw your dad?

I never saw him. He left before my mom had my twin sister and I.

4. Whats the worst fight you and Epsi ever had?

LoL ok I don't know if we ever fought. We have disagreements of philosophy but we always try to end balanced, and sure that we're respecting the other's point of view. Something we disagree on most often these days my holding on to hope that this one girl will see what has been right before her all along, and Epsi's belief that I should just let go. HARVARD GIRL could have me if she did said yes. He thinks HARVARD girl needs to be left alone. But honestly if we ever stopped talking it's because one of us is just really busy preparing to conquer the world.

5. What if your dream girl was non-black and lived on the other side of the country, would you go for it?

Ummm these friggin questions got tougher. Hmmm non-black uh fine because we must have had a connection if I'm even contemplating moving, but non-Christian not so fine. I ain't the most religious person, but I'm getting back to an understanding of the role religion plays in my life. I've always been intensely spiritual. I'm a bit traditional, somewhat old school, most certainly refined. She'd have to meet my mom, and mom would have to approve. I'd be willing to move but I'd have to be sure if the right opportunity came along for me, she'd be willing to reciprocate.
