found this

Find a person who calls you "beautiful" instead of "hot." A person who calls you back when you hang up. A person who will lie under the stars and listen to your heart beat. A person who will stay awake just to watch you sleep. Wait for a person who kisses your forehead. A person who wants to show you off to the world when your in sweats. A person who holds your hand in front of friends. A person who thinks your just as beautiful without getting dressed up. A person who always makes you smile. A person who is constantly reminding you of how much you're cared for. Loves being with you. And knows this individual is the luckiest person in the world to have you. Find that person and never let go.

A little late

I've had these albums for a while now....forgot to rate them.



First up, I have Lady Gaga's re-release of her debut album. Now I never listened to the first... But I must say, this album is just amazing. I can honestly call her ART. From her crazy, ridiculous outfits, to her music, to her crazy live performances....it is all beautiful ART!!! I love it. I suggest everyone go out and get it NOW!!!

Hottest track off of the album: Tie between "Bad Romance" and "Speechless"




Next up is Chris Brown's "Graffiti." If you know me personally, you know at one point I loved him. And you also now I cannot stand him. I think what he did was disgusting. On the other hand, I LOVE his music. As much as I can hate him now, I cannot help to be over the moon every time I see that one of his songs has leaked. Overall, I thought the album was very good. Besides a few songs that I thought were corny.... he had 4 other songs to make up for each bad song.

Another day, another death...

"Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather openings in Heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy."

Just got over the anniversary of my brothers death...and now, 2 weeks later, I have to deal with the death of my heart, Mema.... 3 years it has been... and it seems like just yesterday I was sitting in the kitchen with her, having one of our heart to hearts... All the times I used to complain about having to drive down to see her... I wish I could take it all back. I would spend every second I could with her... Its true what they say... you never know what you have until its gone... and I am kicking myself for it now... I just wish that she knew how much she meant to me... Wish she knew how much I loved her. And how much I miss her. Every. Single. Day.

R.i.P. Mema <3

Excuse me Mr. Obama!

Dear President Obama,

Do you really want to be the new "war president"? If you go to West Point tomorrow night (Tuesday, 8pm) and announce that you are increasing, rather than withdrawing, the troops in Afghanistan, you are the new war president. Pure and simple. And with that you will do the worst possible thing you could do -- destroy the hopes and dreams so many millions have placed in you. With just one speech tomorrow night you will turn a multitude of young people who were the backbone of your campaign into disillusioned cynics. You will teach them what they've always heard is true -- that all politicians are alike. I simply can't believe you're about to do what they say you are going to do. Please say it isn't so.

It is not your job to do what the generals tell you to do. We are a civilian-run government. WE tell the Joint Chiefs what to do, not the other way around. That's the way General Washington insisted it must be. That's what President Truman told General MacArthur when MacArthur wanted to invade China. "You're fired!," said Truman, and that was that. And you should have fired Gen. McChrystal when he went to the press to preempt you, telling the press what YOU had to do. Let me be blunt: We love our kids in the armed services, but we f*#&in' hate these generals, from Westmoreland in Vietnam to, yes, even Colin Powell for lying to the UN with his made-up drawings of WMD (he has since sought redemption).

So now you feel backed into a corner. 30 years ago this past Thursday (Thanksgiving) the Soviet generals had a cool idea -- "Let's invade Afghanistan!" Well, that turned out to be the final nail in the USSR coffin.

There's a reason they don't call Afghanistan the "Garden State" (though they probably should, seeing how the corrupt President Karzai, whom we back, has his brother in the heroin trade raising poppies). Afghanistan's nickname is the "Graveyard of Empires." If you don't believe it, give the British a call. I'd have you call Genghis Khan but I lost his number. I do have Gorbachev's number though. It's + 41 22 789 1662. I'm sure he could give you an earful about the historic blunder you're about to commit.

With our economic collapse still in full swing and our precious young men and women being sacrificed on the altar of arrogance and greed, the breakdown of this great civilization we call America will head, full throttle, into oblivion if you become the "war president." Empires never think the end is near, until the end is here. Empires think that more evil will force the heathens to toe the line -- and yet it never works. The heathens usually tear them to shreds.

Choose carefully, President Obama. You of all people know that it doesn't have to be this way. You still have a few hours to listen to your heart, and your own clear thinking. You know that nothing good can come from sending more troops halfway around the world to a place neither you nor they understand, to achieve an objective that neither you nor they understand, in a country that does not want us there. You can feel it in your bones.

I know you know that there are LESS than a hundred al-Qaeda left in Afghanistan! A hundred thousand troops trying to crush a hundred guys living in caves? Are you serious? Have you drunk Bush's Kool-Aid? I refuse to believe it.

Your potential decision to expand the war (while saying that you're doing it so you can "end the war") will do more to set your legacy in stone than any of the great things you've said and done in your first year. One more throwing a bone from you to the Republicans and the coalition of the hopeful and the hopeless may be gone -- and this nation will be back in the hands of the haters quicker than you can shout "tea bag!"

Choose carefully, Mr. President. Your corporate backers are going to abandon you as soon as it is clear you are a one-term president and that the nation will be safely back in the hands of the usual idiots who do their bidding. That could be Wednesday morning.

We the people still love you. We the people still have a sliver of hope. But we the people can't take it anymore. We can't take your caving in, over and over, when we elected you by a big, wide margin of millions to get in there and get the job done. What part of "landslide victory" don't you understand?

Don't be deceived into thinking that sending a few more troops into Afghanistan will make a difference, or earn you the respect of the haters. They will not stop until this country is torn asunder and every last dollar is extracted from the poor and soon-to-be poor. You could send a million troops over there and the crazy Right still wouldn't be happy. You would still be the victim of their incessant venom on hate radio and television because no matter what you do, you can't change the one thing about yourself that sends them over the edge.

The haters were not the ones who elected you, and they can't be won over by abandoning the rest of us.

President Obama, it's time to come home. Ask your neighbors in Chicago and the parents of the young men and women doing the fighting and dying if they want more billions and more troops sent to Afghanistan. Do you think they will say, "No, we don't need health care, we don't need jobs, we don't need homes. You go on ahead, Mr. President, and send our wealth and our sons and daughters overseas, 'cause we don't need them, either."

What would Martin Luther King, Jr. do? What would your grandmother do? Not send more poor people to kill other poor people who pose no threat to them, that's what they'd do. Not spend billions and trillions to wage war while American children are sleeping on the streets and standing in bread lines.

All of us that voted and prayed for you and cried the night of your victory have endured an Orwellian hell of eight years of crimes committed in our name: torture, rendition, suspension of the bill of rights, invading nations who had not attacked us, blowing up neighborhoods that Saddam "might" be in (but never was), slaughtering wedding parties in Afghanistan. We watched as hundreds of thousands of Iraqi civilians were slaughtered and tens of thousands of our brave young men and women were killed, maimed, or endured mental anguish -- the full terror of which we scarcely know.

When we elected you we didn't expect miracles. We didn't even expect much change. But we expected some. We thought you would stop the madness. Stop the killing. Stop the insane idea that men with guns can reorganize a nation that doesn't even function as a nation and never, ever has.

Stop, stop, stop! For the sake of the lives of young Americans and Afghan civilians, stop. For the sake of your presidency, hope, and the future of our nation, stop. For God's sake, stop.

Tonight we still have hope.

Tomorrow, we shall see. The ball is in your court. You DON'T have to do this. You can be a profile in courage. You can be your mother's son.

We're counting on you.

Yours,
Michael Moore

She Wolf....

Man, thank god the girl can move like that...you don't even have to pay attention to her singing...


New YaaaaaaAHHHwwwkkkk

Okay so I still get the chills every time I watch this video. This performance is so moving. It really does inspire you.... I'm not a big fan of Jay-z, but I can respect him as an artist. Who else can get Whitney Houston, Mary J. Blige, Ne-Yo, Reba McIntyre (however you spell it), the Green Day dude, all the country artist, and the WHOLE theater/venue up out of their seats and rockin to the song?!?! No one my friends.... No one...

Thanksgiving

Most people around the holidays get cheerful, happy....and then the rest of us get sad...Me, I used to love the holidays. Thanksgiving was a time for everyone to be together and just enjoy each others company. Now, everyone is either dead, or disappeared off of the face of the earth...Now, instead of talking about what we are all thankful for, we think/talk about who is missing. What we used to be thankful for... it's hard to enjoy everything... We used to have a hard time deciding which house to go to... now we don't even get one invite.... It's crazy how things change when we grow up... But theres one thing that I am grateful for this year... and thats knowing who my true friends are. God has presented to me the opportunity to figure out who will be there for me no matter what, and who I can count on. And for that I am grateful...

Ireland: Cheated

We royally were screwed...It's okay though... Karmas a bitch




....

Sorry I havn't posted on here in a few days...I've been going through it. These past few days have been hard for me. I've been having trouble with being comfortable with myself... being happy with myself... and not being able to find a damn job... man thats really bringing me down. It just seems like I am going nowhere, and I have done nothing with my life... and tomorrow, with the 4th anniversary of my brothers death, its even harder... then in a month its the 3 year anniversary of my heart, my Mema.... I am still struggling with their deaths.... I am convinced more each day that my brother was a suicide by overdose... and I dont know how to cope with these things.... and his children, my nephews, who are now my brothers, dont make it any easier for me. Each day one of them does something that reminds me of him. And the oldest one... hes getting more and more like him. Walks like him, talks like him, moves like him... Its creepy...I dont know man... Its just a really bad week for me... I need someone, or something, to cheer me up...

Oh, Rihanna



Hottest Track on the Album: Tied between Te Amo and Wait Your Turn
4.75 out of 5 stars

So i've gotten the chance to listen to Rihanna's much anticipated/talked about album. First off, let me just say, FUCK EVERYONE who has been putting my girl and the record down! I love it. Her songs are raw, and you can tell their from the heart. She did an amazing job. Theres a little hip hop, a little r&b, a little pop.... just amazing. Just speaks for itself why she is one of the best artists out there, and one of my personal favorites.... Keep on doing your thing RiRi.... She has grown so much since her first album, I cannot wait to see what shes doing a few years down the line....


The Review Is in


So I finally got to go and see Precious today... And let's just say, it lived up to its expectations... The movie was amazing. Disturbing. Sad. But great. The performance by Mo'Nique was the best in my opinion. I don't think that I would ever have the balls to play that part. Not many people would. Gabourey Sidibe was also amazing. Paula Patton, who I love... Mariah.... Just amazing. A real raw movie.... I read the book before seeing the movie... I kind of wish that I hadn't... I liked the book a lot better. They left out a lot in the movie, and left people who didn't read the book questioning some things... But don't take that for me not liking the movie. Because I did... I loved it....

Feet

Okay, so it's no secret that I hate feet.... I mean really hate them. I have yet to see anyone with a set of feet that I like... lol. But I have to say, one of the things I hate most, that involves feet... is SMALL feet!!! Ahhhh I hate it! Especially on guys! But have you ever seen someone walking around, and their feet just look funny, because their so small... or they look like their going to tip over because their feet don't look like they can hold them up? Guys with small feet....SMH is all I really have to say... I feel like if your 5'8" and up, the smallest you should wear is a 10... and now I know people cant help it, but I mean, come on, no one else has thought of this before?! I get made fun of a lot by my family and friend because I have huge feet. In most cases, I wear a size 11... Mens... Yes, I admit that that is a big foot for a woman, take into consideration, that I am a big girl! lol. I mean, come one, how ridiculous would it look, if I had a size 8 foot? Or 9 even? It would look like I am about to tip over!



Some examples of NO BUENO!!! :





Examples of Good Feet lmao :

Conflicted

Man I am so conflicted... lol... I cannot stand him anymore. He beat up my BFF Rihanna... lol... But I mean....COME ON! Look at this picture! Hes gorgeous! lmao It's a damn shame!

Cope

I'm still trying to figure out how to get out of this slump I am in...So much going wrong in such little time. This past year, i've lost a lot. Friends, jobs....hope.... I am completely in love with someone who would never in a million years think so I would have feelings for them. I have had feelings for him for years, but they have grown stronger over time. I have tried to suppress them. But that only made things worse. I'm not going to say this person doesn't even know I exist, because I actually KNOW this person. I have gotten to be friends with this person. But I am starting to think that maybe it would be better off if I never met him at all. Being in love, and knowing that this person will never love you back... man, its the hardest pill to swallow. Almost as bad as when I lost my first love. That was brutal. I used to love love. Now, as time goes on, and the more meaningless relationships, and flings that I have, I am starting to despise love.... Why is it that I get the people that everyone else wants, but when it comes to someone I want, I can't have them?

Oh Chris...

OK...So I used to be a big fan of Chris Brown... Then we all found out he is a piece of shit woman beater...Well... I was slowly beginning to like him again. Well not him, but his music.... And then I see this... I dont care any which way you put it... This picture... Mad suspect! His response?:
Some bull about he has a great sense of fashion or some bs.... He deleted the tweet... But anyway, I dont really consider this stylish.....


But this on the other hand.....

Now that is what I call PERFECTION!

Music, my love...

Ok so after attending and seeing a few concerts on tv recently, I began to worry. I am still worried. About everyones appreciation for music theses days. And the opportunities they have, when seeing these great artists live. Everyone is dead. Not cheering, nothing. Maybe a head bop. So sad... but then I went to P!nk's concert at MSG. Her first headlining tour in the US.... And it was amazing. The atmosphere...omg.... see for yourself....











Crazy D

The future of music! lol check this out. My little brother singing Bon Jovi (not my fault), and singing/dancing to Keri Hilsons, "Knock You Down," (my fault). More blog updates to come more often hopefully!

Drained

I have so many dreams and aspirations. I know what I want out of life. I know how I want everything to pan out. But I seem to be stuck in this rut. The devil is pulling me back. Everytime I take a few steps forward, he pulls me 20 steps back. Back into this hell. My hell. How do I break out of this cycle? I feel my dreams slipping away from me. Day by day. Hour by hour. Minute by minute. I can feel my soul cracking. My spirits drained. I'm going under awfully fast. I can swim, but I'm not fighting the currents anymore. I'm slowly being pulled out to sea. No lifeguard in sight. I'm watching the shore get further and further away as I continue to drift away with the water. I'm scared. What happens when I lose sight of land?

Monday, June 1, 2009


I am in love. I am in love with music. It heals my soul. It can single handidly change my mood in an instant. It brings me joy. I put on my over sized headphones, and just drown out the world. Me and my music. All the problems in life just disappear for a few minutes. Ah, love.
