Insert nonsensical crap here











so......

I dont even really have shit to say

I got a new bootleg weave

I honestly walked my black ass into the store and took the cheapest/curl-like shit i could get
8.99 a pack baby
dont judge me
I forgot the shit wasnt human hair for a second(i usually get the human one but im doin this protective challenge thing where i keep my hair weaved up or braided for the better part of a year...uh that shit adds up n its a recession hence the 8.99 hair weave. DONT FUCKIN JUDGE ME DAMMIT)
anyway where was i
yeah i forgot it wasnt human hair n my dumbass went and tried to curl it with a curling iron
weaveologist fail
the front crap is all crinkly crackly



meh

no biggie smalls


Hmmm

I'm on a 'eat better so u look good for ur damn birthday' meal plan
This is not a New Years Resolution despite what my brother might tell u
Three comments in the past coupla weeks about the extra poundage (sounds dirty right?)
The first was to the effect that i was eating good(otherwise known as i can see the imprint of the bigmacs struggling to burst free of ur body)- this from my best friend's pops
Some old bag at church who told me i was at the edge of a cliff ready to jump into obesity ocean (well not quite like that but thats wat the fuck i heard)
and the third from the ole haitian immigrant who keeps bringin up long lost Bally memberships in conjunction with boyfriendlessness (cue 10-second long side eye)

Now
i was good today
sorta
two salads(with a lot of dressing, but dont even come out ur face n say anything)
2 fruits
a granola bar
orange juice/apple juice/and water drinks of choice
Tomorrow is not even promised so i aint even gonna front like ima be good tomorrow

Update

both my uncles and aunts and their kids on my dad's side are ok
Spoke to my cousin via skype
Told her she looked a damn mess
She said, and i quote, "I've been through an earthquake.Wats your excuse?"
lol
Bitch got jokes

Their houses are damged pretty badly and theyre staying at a different location
My dad's house that he was going to retire to suffered some damage as well
but it's still standing
My aunt's place of work basically fell down around them but she made it out
I'm so grateful for all ur prayers
I was hoping for the best but honestly i was imagining the worst


Still havent heard from my mom's side of the family yet
My uncle went into Port-au-Prince on business and we havent heard anything
Sigh
We've been trying to get in contact with friends and family
Askin folk if they can check on others and stuff
The road conditions arent that great in the best of times so.....


I'm gonna just keep hoping for good news
Praying that Haiti can get thru this
If it's one thing i know the Haitian people are, it's resilient and proud (yeah that was 2 things.sue me)

the first, and the only, successful slave revolt in the history of the world.
(no pact with the devil needed. Pat Robertson needs to sit his ole ass down somewhere. quoting the devil and shit like he got access to HELL TV transcripts)


We got the heart man
just need a helping hand



Now get off ur asses and do something
I'm watching you

Wat if....?

The what if's are playing in my mind and i'm really trying to not think about it
If i do, ill cry
and i won't be able to stop
so i pray
hope
that everything is....ok
ill be happy with ok
with alright
haven't heard from the fam yet
can't contact anyone
shit sounds bad
My dad was supposed to be in Haiti today
I fucked up his ticket and scheduled the wrong flight date
so he's at work right now
He would've been in Port Au Prince right now instead
They say everything happens for a reason
I'd be feeling this way times 5 million if he was down there
sigh
Can we get a fuckin break?!?!?
Can Haiti get a fuckin break?!?!??
Please

So.....

i'm just lookin out the window when she asks me
the same damn question she asks almost every time i see her
"So. you gotta man yet?"
(Really tho??!?!?)
me:*sighs* No
her:you sure? You better let me know if you do cuz if you go around tellin people you're not seeing someone and u end up pregnant....well people are gonna think you sleep around...you're a ho. u know what i mean?
me:*grimace* I'm grown. When i get a man you'll be the 2nd person to know.ok? I don't have to hide anything. I think at the age of 24, i can safely assume noone's gonna be alarmed.
(enter awkward silence)
"Do any guys try to talk to you...ask you out?"
(oh thnx mom. your doin wonders for my self esteem here.)
"yeah.sometimes"
(drop it already old bag. No need to beat a dead horse. I'm single and my ovaries are shriveling up as i speak.got it)
she looks over quizzically

"It doesnt go anywhere" *shrugs*
one minute later
"Do girls try to talk to you?"
(rolling eyes into the base of my skull)
"yeah.Sometimes"

Why's she staring into my eyes like that?
"What do you do?"
(I usually just say yes. "I'd love to be your lesbian lover" takem home and showem a good time)
the hell u think i say?
"uh.I say thnx for the compliment and keep it moving"
"oh.ok"

siiiiiiiiiiiigh




happy new year everyone
here's to hoping these types of conversations between the moms and i will cease



(just finished going thru old posts and realize that i miss yall guys)
come back
u can blame it all on me
lol

Don't Stop til u get enough

I still dont have a life so you'll have to put up with the mundane til exciting shit comes along

Love

nada goin on in that front
I still always manage to find the crackheaded fellas anywhere i go
Went out with some friends last Saturday
sigh
This Middle Eastern dude who kept referring to me as 'big girl' *side eye*
no concept of personal space
tryna dance all up on me
thought he was the lovechild of Janet Jackson and Usher. dancing like a friggin idiot all night
swore he was doin some hot shit
no hon
u just look like ur having an epileptic seizure
a very enjoyable epileptic seizure, but an epileptic seizure nonetheless



Poetry
sigh
I've been stuck
it kinda hurts
I need to get my mojo back
until then here's some rhymes revisited stuff:
reverse evolution
tryna bring the past back on counterclockwise revolutions, they say that love brings absolution
so I guess there's no solution to the plight that plagues her the
ills that face her
cuz it was a night of stolen innocence and hate that made her
and since she can recall her mother has despised her,
evidence of past crimes so she tried to deny her
therefore
Admittance
into her heart was forbidden,
No entrance but on a good day a smile as pittance





music
Yall know my girl Sade's comin out with new stuff

Gonna cop it cuz come the hell on
IT'S SADE DAMMIT!!!!



I need to go shopping
I saw these nice knee high boots i wanted while i was chillin down in the Bronx last week
tan and brown and pure flyness so
yeah im gonna gettem tomorrow probably
need some over-the-knee boots too
pics will be forthcoming

in the meantime here are some pics of some shoes and crap i picked up last week














that will be all

Why don't you have a life? Does that count as a real question? Wait, does that count as a second question?

I don't have a real question... just get back to blogging. That is all.

I dont have a social life cuz apparently some higher power doesnt think i deserve one. I must say tho, that ive been goin out a lot more recently
Indeed it does count as a second one smartass

blogging doesn't always have to be about what's going on in your real life- make something up and tag it as a piece...lol

what's been the most shifting experience you've ever gone through that you felt change the trajectory of your life?
Moving to Lancaster pennsylvania after highschool
Fucked my whole life up.lol
I didnt wanna move there but i didnt really have a damn choice
got all depressed and shit
lost two years of my life to that Godforsaken place
NOT TO MENTION THE COLLEGE CREDITS THAT WOULDNT TRANSFER
ARRRRRRR
