P.G. County by Connie Briscoe

Due to excessive BOREDOM at my job today, I read this novel in one shot. It was a pretty good story line. The story of the lives of 4 different women living in prominient areas of P.G. County (Some wealthier than others). Lots of lies, scandals, adultery, and drama. The book was entertaining and suspensful for the most part. As it concluded you kind of wished something ELSE was happening. It ended a little dryly, if u will. I thought it could have ended ALOT differently. Hell, I had some ideas in mind. Nonetheless it was a fun book to read to pass the time.

Side Note***

Why is it that every SINGLE novel I've read the author is the "bestselling?" Im sure they can't ALL be in that category. Somebody is lying!

AND I THOUGHT MY LIP GLOSS WAS POPPIN' LOL

The Fall Heard 'Round the World

So, as we all know by now, Beyonce' took a nice great fall at a concert in Florida while performing her not so much of a hit single "Ring the Alarm." I heard the story of how she fell face first after tripping on her lengthy "Matrix" styled trench coach but ain't nothing like seeing it for yourself. So I googled it, most videos were taken down at the artists' request. However, I did come across a few that were still up and running. When I saw that fall I immediately began to laugh uncontrollably. I don't know if I laughed that hard because she fell but I think Michelle's fall on 106 & Park had a little something to do with it. Now, I'm just waiting for Kelly to fall into a pit of some sort during a Destiny's Child "Survivor" Camping Retreat.

WARNING: Very explicit in content and language

Have you ever met someone who had all of the world’s possibilities lying right at arms length but wouldn’t take hold of them? Have you ever met somebody who wanted some things so bad but never chased the desires of her heart because of fear? Have you ever met someone so afraid to try and succeed? That person is me.

I’m petrified of the future so I cling to the presence and marvel at the past. Things were simple back then. Things weren’t so complicated. It was a time when good things just came to me. Now that I’m older, things aren’t always handed to me. I have to go get them.

My fear is not that I am insufficient but that my sufficiency is far beyond my expectations. It’s quite oxymoronic I think.

I’d also like to just say that I am highly favored by the Lord b/c I’ve gotten so far in my life at such a young age and not because I deserved it all of the time. I didn’t have to work so hard to get to where I am now. Everything was easy for me and I thank GOD for His unmerited favor upon my life.

Anyway, I guess its time for me to gain some confidence and get in the game and stop watching everyone else play.

PHOTOS by me

There is nothing particularly special about the majority of the photos I take. I take random photos day to day of things I just would like to visually remember and I'd like to share some of them. I didn't bother tagging my name on any of them b/c I just don't think its necessary. Enjoy :)

This photo was taken in the darkroom at my school. The photo inside was one of my favorites. It was of a bruised and battered girl... below are two pictures of the make up I did to make her eye look black. It looked so much hotter in print! Unfortunately I lost alot of my print photography which is alot more fun to do. Sooooo. I'll make up for it.

This photo below is a picture OF a picture I did for a photography class. Ummm, this was a print photography blk/white class. I liked it.

Should I pride myself in knowing so many?? (I say this in the most sarcastic way possible)

GROW UP!

Wat the hell is wrong with people? I've been nothing but nice to everyone and I always seem to get the short end of the stick. Straight disrespect. I've been talked about, lied to, and everything else in the book and managed to let it slide. There's going to come a time when the grace period ends and I get really ugly! (figuratively speaking)

Are people just bored and wanna be in sumthn?I swear it seems like people wake up looking for something negative to get into. Lets see... Im a year away from graduating from college and my peers act worst than high school students. I never even went through any of this crap in High School. GROW UP! I don't have time for all of that he say she say, lying to cover my tail, soap opera drama.

And it seems to me that people also cant seem to think for themselves. Definitely not the kind of people I need to be around. I like my friends to have opinions.... their OWN! There's nothing worst than a lukewarm person. Dont know if they're hot or cold.

So basically, here's the verdict... Im not dealing with this nonsense post Summer 2007. Im just not. If you act greasy, I just wont speak to you. Liars are automatically deaded. All that gossip... save it for someone else. Its just never that serious for me to keep all that negativity around me and be involved in CRAP. Its not necessary nor is it wise.



[oil & water just dont mix]

So a guy recently asked me this... "So what do u look for in a guy?"
I said... "A whole lot!"


Someone (usually someone who aint even tryna get with me) always asks me this question. I guess they all wonder why Im always single. Well, for one, IM PICKY PICKY PICKY; 2, Im not a good girlfriend. I guess I learn how to be one later in life. Don't get me wrong, Im a GREAT girl, but I just know how to be a "lover," if u will. Not yet at least; 3, too busy and need to focus all my attention on keeping money in the bank and knowlege in my head.


But back to basics... what I look for in a guy! Well okay... I guess I'll just list some of the qualities of my "perfect guy"

1. Taller than me. (that would be lovely)
2. Well kept. (Low neat cut ::ceasars only... no fades n stuff:: or neat braids. Either is fine)
3. Sneaker Head. A guy in great sneakers is always sexy PLUS PLUS PLUS
4. Not too flashy! I hate big chains, big watches, ed hardy, rhinestones, etc. Just iron your clothes and make sure they fit!
5. Humorous. (If he can make me laugh he's good money)
6. Spiritual. (Please know and like Jesus. Im not asking for a preacher here but at least LIKE Him)
7. Intelligent. (There is nothing more I hate more than a man who cant talk to me about nething else except girls, sex, and money... beat it! A good mind is a turn on)
8. Honest. (Do I even have to say anything? If Im not pleasing you, please leave me and just be with her. To do it behind my back will only result in two funerals and I'll still be here to tell the story)
9. Respectful. (Disrespectful men are the worst! And God forbid he puts his hands on me in a way I DONT like! hmmmph!... we ain't going there)
10. A License (I dont have one right now and aint no subway comin to LI. I mean its not a necessity but that would be nice)
11. Talent!!!! (A singer, A dancer, A poet, A photographer, A muscian... SOMETHING!)

Now I dont go walking around with a list handing them out tryna find prince charming cuz I know the ONE may not posess all of these qualities but dammit he's got 10 of 11. lol.

How well do YOU match up?

Didnt meet the mark huh? lol

Am I too demanding? Honestly!.... Yeah, I dont think so either lol.

A closet full of clothes and we say we've got nothing to wear. Some of those clothes still have tags on them. Someone on the other side of town has 1 coat & 1 pair of shoes. The next time you think of complaining about having "nothing to wear" CONSIDER THIS

Soooooooo Yeah. All Im gonna say is to do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Point blank period. The bible is my foundation for right vs. wrong. PERIOD! The bible told ME (mi nah kno bout you) that I should love my neighbor as I love myself, give unto the poor, feed those who are hungry, etc.
I've done all that and I've just realized that even though I do all the GOOD to other people that I can, it wont always be reciprocated. I used to get mad about it but tonight I found that just because other people dont always give back to me the way I give to them has NOTHING to do with me as a person. I've done my job and GOD will deal with those who blatantly do wrong by not only me but others as well.


*Note to self:
Fool me once, SHAME ON YOU
Fool me twice, SHAME ON ME!

Its okay to play the fool. Just don't play it TWICE!

Its soooooooo close...

...GRADUATION that is!

I really can't believe I have ONE more year to go before Im out of college!!! I mean everything went by so fast. Im a little scared to be honest. For me, its kind of like ... okay, I graduate and then what? I dunno where Im going, what I want. Im just sorta "goin' w/ the flow."

Anyways... Me being 19year old senior? lol. That sounds dope for real. I guess I never realized how ridiculously young I was until I suddenly became the only one in the crew under 21. See now THAT's WACK! But I guess being young, privileged, gifted, and black has its perks. Yeah, I like to toot my own horn. I deserve it! lol
