i know this is old news, but here's a better look at Cassie's haircut

i hate it even more, lol. i mean, it's her head, she can do whatever she wants with it, but i do not understand this trend unless your hair is short. like, keyshia cole. but this cassie mess? i can't get with it.

what do you guys think?

have you seen a non-celeb rocking this look?

Why does PETA have to airbrush their ads to THIS extent?

ew.

i got pierced AGAIN.

i am completely out of control.

i got my rook done this time. i love piercings. =]

however, this is THE MOST painful piercing i have ever gotten, omg. but i like it. i like being different i guess, but not different to the point where people think i'm weird, haha.

i've just kind of learned to be myself & i love me. i feel so comfy in my own skin these days. la la lovely <3

weave on the ground.

is this just happening here in detroit?

i see it all the time. a weave track laying on the damn ground. how does this happen?! do you literally become SO frustrated with your weave, that you feel compelled to rip it out whilst walking down the street & then leave it there? does it itch? was it falling out in the first place? i just get so confused when i see this.

can someone explain to me WHY this keeps happening?

random thought: am i the only one who finds it completely hilarious when people named Chastity are CLEARLY not chaste?

she's with me always!

so, about a month ago (July 10th), it was my mom's first b-day in heaven. I was actually holding up better than thought. of course i missed her, but i was fine. i had a lot of thoughts going through my head so i just went for a walk to clear my head. then i chilled out for a little bit and on my way to the shower to get reay for work, *SOMEONE* took it upon themselves to yell at me. they shall remain nameless, but it was a relative, it was NOT one of my grandparents. it was just ridiculous. this person told me i had no initiative or motivation and i wasn't doing enough. i was in school 23 freaking hours a week and working 20 hours a week. leaving home at 7:30 am and getting home at 10:30 pm, and getting up at 6 the next day. yeah, i'm not doing enough. and dare i say it: i truly think grief is a full time job.it really is. it takes SO MUCH out of you. going to work is one thing, but going to school & trying to do well while dealing with that is just, ugh. i was totally fine til then, but after this person's little tyrade, i cried and cried for a good hour. normally it wouldn't bug me so much, but everything just got to me at that moment. but i got myself together for work. got there, did the usual. called people. answered the phones and took a couple payments from customers. so, this one guy comes in, and he always pays in exact change. i forget his exact total, but i remember the change was like, 24 cents. so, he gave me the cash and 24 cents in change, and i usually never really look, but something possessed me to look at the change, and i looked down, and my grandpa & i (mostly him, haha), collect coins, and a noticed one was what's called a "wheathead" penny. and they're old, they stopped making them in 1958 i think. so i just looked at it, and i flipped it over, curious to see what year it was from cuz i knew it was old, and it was from 1954! the year my mom was born! she knew i needed a sign or something from her. i had been feeling really down, and missing her so much. i haven't dreamed about her in forever and i guess she knew i needed that. i'm so glad she sent it to me. so i replaced it with one of my own pennies and gave it to my boss to take it to the bank & i kept the penny for myself.

it's just too coincidental to be an actual coincedence, or "co-een-kee-deenk" as my mom used to say, haha.

just wanted to share. to anyone who's ever lost a loved one, friend, whatever, even if you're feeling lonely, just know they're always, ALWAYS looking over you, even if it doesn't feel like it. my mom was the closest person to me in the world and it still feels like a really, really bad dream. even as recently as the other day, i picked up the phone to call her and realized i couldn't! i just wish it would feel more real already, but what are ya' gonna do?

the end =]


p.s., idk if you can really see the pic, but it's the actual penny. i'm keeping it in my jewelry box. i think i might have it made into a charm for my charm bracelet. i'm gonna cherish that measly little 1 cent for the rest of my life. <3

&& now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. ♥


'tis all.

Extensions: how long is TOO long?

i currently wear 14 inches, but i trim them, so it's actually shorter, plus i assume they don't count the inch or so that's wound up in the weft, so i've been thinking about going longer. like maybe 16 inches, maybe 18? but i don't wanna look like a video vixen, lol.

what length do you guys wear? i guess it varies a lot depending on your height; i'm 5'7", and the hair comes like mid-boob.

also what brand of hair do you guys use? i used Velvet Remi.

good stuff.

true, true.

kinda cute.

still can't believe he's gone.

"Good Hair"--the movie & the reality

so, i was watching "Wendy Williams" [boy, half my posts are getting to be about this woman, lol, but i LOVE her show!] and she played the trailer for a Chris Rock documentary called "Good Hair". i believe it's supposed to be released nationwide on October and i cannot wait to see it. long story short; the movie is about how we as a race feel about our hair. personally, i don't think how you style your hair has ANYTHING to do with how you feel about your race. i straighten my hair to the dickens & i wear 14 inches of remi hair [love it!] and i'm completely proud to be black! i just think i look better with long hair & my hair won't get that long on it's own. and i like how manageable my hair is when it's straight. why do so many "natural" sisters feel the need to say that women who use chemicals, etc. are shunning their heritage? hair is hair. do what you want with it. if you wanna wear dreads, cool. if you want a long, ice blond weave down to your ankles, fine.

speaking of "good hair", what is GOOD HAIR to you? i've always heard this term, and everytime someone would say it around my mom she would say, "everything God made is good!" (she was SO WISE, i miss her so much), and it's true. why is some hair "GOOD" and others' "bad"? as most of us know, lots of Black people usually will say it's hair that's long, curly, no "kitchen", smooth on the edges, & very soft. the fact of the matter is, most of us don't have hair like that! if you're 100% black, it's probably jet black, coarse, kinky & your edges DO NOT lay down, lol. and there's nothing wrong with that! i wish we could learn to stop calling it "good" hair. hair is hair & everyone is beautiful.

ever wondering how long Wendy Williams' hair actually is?

i wondered!

then i googled!

haha, here it is!

it's pretty long, i'm surprised. it's kind of thin though for an Af. American woman, but i'm still impressed with the length! i wonder how long she's been growing it out?

what do you ladies do to stay or keep in shape?

i'm feeling really *blah*, aka FAT as fuck. i've been eating sooo much fast food since i've had this crazy schedule and i feel like poo.

i'm done with this semester in 2 days (PRAISE JESUS!) and i want to try a fun new workout.

keep in mind: i'm a poor college student, lol. i like doing DVD's. have you guys done any fun workout dvd's lately?

i kind of want to do these strip ones, they look fun! i mean, i'm pathetically single so it'd never come in handy, lol, but it looks like a blast!

comments please =]

ok, i'm done talking smack, after THIS

this lady got arrested for stealing a sandwich. when she was caught, she was stil eating it. and she apparently didn't think to wipe her mouth before the mugshot.

=/

k, i'm done.

is it just me, or is this disturbing?

lol, this was on someone's google adsense thingy.

doesn't it look gross?

new nickelodeon logo

i disapprove.

bring back the old nick!

i used to love this channel, am i the only one? Disney fucking SUCKED back in the day, but i love it now. Nick was my true love when i was a kid.

remember "Hey, Arnold!"? ahhh, i loved that show! oh, and "Doug".

oh, the precious memories...

i'm still alive!

omgosh, so sorry guys!

i've been neglecting you all =[

i have been crazy busy lately & the craziness will continue! just got another job and i have training on wed-fri and it interferes with my work schedule and my final exam for bio! ugh, idk what to do. i really need this job.
