We were once a fairytale pt. 1 and pt. 2



..get familiar.

I firmly believe in sharing the wealth. (in my case love) I don't spend much time online, but I found a page on facebook that really caught my interest.
CollegeCloset is the name and it is a clothing line focused on making personified fashion affordable for college students.
I was really interested in it because I felt like I was
definitely a part of its demographic.
Started by Ms. Bobby James and Ms. Chinasa Emeneha (i believe) whom are two of my facebook friends, this opportunity is destined to stir up some trouble in the Houston area.
Through unique photography, and staying true to individuality and style, I believe they could go really far.

_all this to say, you go girl lol.

((just an update))

I took a break.
I lowered my standards.
But now its time to get back on top.

I'm not one to make any resolutions for the upcoming year, but I will say beware. I feel like I'm in stage 3, right between the "been there done that" phase and the edge of "bringing home the bacon." Ive realized a lot during my time in View Prairie'. I spent so much time living amongst the anticipation of my dreams that I never took the time out to develop a plan on reaching them. For some reason leaving was the only thing I could think of, but that never really gave me anything to come back to. Houston is my home, and always will be. There's so much about this city that I don't know, and never get to see.
thanks to solange I was inspired to find my heart in my hometown. If I don't I know I will still be able to make it where ever I shall go.
If you read this, and know anything about the Art Community in Houston, feel free to let me know.

Awesome cover by Solange Knowles of the song Stillness is the Move by Dirty Projectors mixed with some "Bumpy's Lament" by Soul Mann & the Brothers sampled by Dr. Dre on "Xxplosive" and Erykah Badu...

aParty.


yo way.

lol so I had to write a children's song for class. It goes like this:

You aint gotta shoot guns just to have fun,
and You aint gotta do drugs, just show ya love.
You aint gotta preach what yo daddy say.
Cause at the end of the day..its gone be yo way.

Little boys little girls its time to act like you know
Aint no use in skippin school and you girls need to show
That there's more to life than boppin- and bein a hoe
Mind elevation No self-hatred is the way to go

Money is the goal but it aint the reason
Stay away from hatin niggas and committin that treason
Be men above men and protect yo name
Cause when it comes to the game, who cares about the fame?


lol its a joke but real.. im gonna record it and post again.
