I read about the sale, disappearance and now confirmed murder of Shaniya Davis, and my heart dropped. Then, I raged when I read about the death of 9 year old Elizabeth Olten at the hands of a sick, disturbed and devilish 15 year old Alyssa Bustamante. You know what? This kind of shit doesn't even make sense. Kids are lighting other kids on fire, they're raping girls right outside of high school dances, and they're giving "Becky" in school libraries. I know that the media tends to go for the "... Read Full Story

I was sick and very much looked it. Thing is, I didn't feel like getting all dolled up for some photos, so that explains the mask. Here are some shots of my hair. It was kind of a frohawk type of deal. Loved it! The twists aren't completely undone so as time progresses I will undo all of them to give more volume! Read Full Story

As you guys know, I've been reading Lawrence Hill's "Someone Knows My Name." It's taken me some time because I'm a book Casanova, and read many at once. However, this has become my exclusive book, and I am almost done.I am saddened at the turn of events in the book. I don't want to ruin it for you, but I cannot recommend this book ENOUGH. It's a crash course in history, through the eyes of a very strong woman. In part of the book, the book's heroine Aminata Diallo, also known as Meena in the ... Read Full Story

Just as I’m about to start on my plan tailored by Derek at Scivation, I go and get sick the weekend I was supposed to start it. Shit! On Saturday we went to a cultural function with my mom and the foold was most likely homemade. That should’ve been my first red flag. I was starving, so I dove into the rice, chicken, salad and potato salad. I knew I should’ve stopped but I was ravenous. Fast forward to Sunday, and I am horribly nauseous. Sunday night I developed a fever,... Read Full Story

What is going in this God awful video?What is the purpose of the guns? Since when is it okay or responsible to glorify guns or weapons?Is it just me or is Beyonce going sluttier with each year that she becomes less relevant? I mean Britney did it, and so do most pop tarts when they find that people aren't really giving that much of a shit about them. Cassie and Rihanna decided to release those infamous nude photos.What's with not wearing any pants?What's with wearing lingerie? *sigh* Read Full Story

I was going to leave this one alone, but I just had to say something after reading this tripe from Sammy Sosa:We send only our best wishes for you to stay young long after the tubes of anti-aging cream are squeezed dry.That's what all this silliness is about, folks -- a harmlessly vain Sosa feeling as equipped as Kevin Gregg for the late inning of life.Years in baseball's spotlight damaged Sosa's ego more than his skin. The skin-lightening product Sosa is believed to be putting on his face tw... Read Full Story

Yeah folks, there's not much that I can say to this without frothing at the mouth in rage and disbelief.I will say this much. No child, male or female, should take advantage of another child and that little boy was violated. We have to remember that boys can be and are victims of sexual molestation by some FAST ass girls (I went to school with one) who need counseling and therapy to undo all of the damage done to them mentally.I feel sorry for both of these children. I am not surprised tha... Read Full Story

I wrote my first short story/novella when I was 13 years old. It was a romance fantasy. My girl was part of a tribe living on an island in the Pacific. They were mermaids but they didn't look like fish. They could just swim as deep and as much as they wanted. Water was central to their existence, a window to their spirituality. My character's name was Cambria. I gave up after awhile, not believing much in my ability.I am a tremendous self-doubter. I always hold back, and always doubt ... Read Full Story

When Lady Gaga did the leotard thing, I was like... Okay, I guess...Beyonce did the whole Leotard thing all of this year, and part of last year, and she doesn't want to stop. Who joined the action? Why Britney Spears' unstable ass!I was watching Brandy's "Baby" video, and I remarked on how the clothes were hip (for the time) but they were covering her. Granted Brandy was younger, but for the most part, Brandy kept it cool, not tricking herself out. Her fashion was on point, her makeup was... Read Full Story

I was gone for so long because I didn’t have time for fitness. And as a result, my weight went up to where I started back in February. I am seriously disappointed with myself but I am picking it up. I’ve started working out again, started a good training plan and am eating right. Read Full Story
