another blog of mine…the start of me establishing my brand, perhaps?
i should probably go to sleep. but i can’t. have you ever sat in a room with florescent lights and thats it? no conversations, no music, no noise? ever notice the buzzing sound that the lights make? thats what my mind is like…my brain is always buzzing and even though i can’t make out clear thoughts sometimes, i can still hear the noise. does that sound crazy?
7. Think of the last person you hugged. What would...
Well I kinda sorta hugged a new business associate this evening…but I don’t think thats what this question is referring to. Its funny because I don’t hug that often- and being in NYC, I haven’t really made friends that I’m close enough with to hug. I honestly can’t even remember the last person I seriously hugged. Not since I visited Kansas City in...
Gems of Brooklyn
theinfluencenyc:
This is for lovers of great food. I was strolling through Clinton Hill this Sunday; specifically Myrtle avenue and walked into Sans Souci, a Jamaican restuarant with a touch of Italian, French, American, Chinese and Creole cuisine. All Rasta Pasta lovers know how monumental it is when another restaurant is found, so my advice is to go give this gem a look-see. Happy eating!

I learned my first lesson of 2011 on NYE/NYD. It was supposed to be epic, and well…it was. Not in the way I expected though. Yes, I was fly. Shoe game killed. Of course bottles were popped. My favorite DJ was spinnin. Was shorty from back in the day checkin for me?
…and just like that, it faded to black.
My first lesson of 2011 is to trust no one. Messed up? Maybe…but I can’t put my...

Erykah Badu. Didn’t Cha Know.
I started off 2011 in a weird place…and its forced me into a much needed state of reflection. There are so many things I want to do and places that I want to go…and right now I just want to learn and grow. I feel like this song describes my mindstate perfectly.
Time to save the world Where in the world is all the time So many things I still...

I sometimes think I have ADD, but I definitely played with this for a few minutes
4. What do you think it means to be in love?
Now Playing: 808s & Heartbreak
How ironic….
This album got me through my 1st and only real heartbreak…and while it took me forever to get over the pain from that relationship, if I’m completely honest with myself (which I’m trying to do more often), then I have to admit I still love him. Just differently. From a distance.
But uh, back to the lecture at hand…...
3. Where have you been spending your time lately?...
Ummm its wintertime in NY. Brooklyn is just now thawing out and we’re supposed to get more snow this weekend. With that being said, I’ve been spending time at work and at home. And starting the week, at the gym….which is kicking my butt btw.
I ALWAYS knew I would end up in New York. I applied to NYU, Fordham and Columbia for undergrad…but I couldn’t ignore the...

2. Who are you? In comparison to who you used to...
I’m a woman who loves. I love God, I love life, I love my family and friends, and I love myself. I don’t think this has changed much. What has changed, however, is the way I show this love.
I used to think that love was putting the needs of those you cared about above your own. I never said no…I thought I was a superwoman who could be everything to everyone. I mean, they...
Dear Black Man,
This was inspired by a few tweets that said, ” People say the ‘good black man’ is an endangered species and the {lack thereof} is biggest reason for the state of the black community. However, after concentrated though, I think one of the biggest problems in the black community, is, to some extent, the black woman. Not in support, but in tolerance. Nearly everything a man does,...

Well…I woke up, showered. Read Proverbs 4, which basically talks about how valuable wisdom is. My favorite verses?
7-9 Wisdom is supreme, therefore get wisdom Though it cost alll you have, get understanding. Esteem her, and she will exalt you; embrace her, and she will honor you. She will set a garland of grace on your head and present you with a crown of splendor.
A garland of grace...

So I definitely have some things to say to say to you. I wish I didn’t. honestly, I wish that I never met you because you have altered my point of view of view on everything, and I can’t get you off my mind. I miss our random talks about nothing and I miss your movie scenes that I would edit. I miss dreaming about you and I miss the feeling that I’d get after I got off the phone with you. I miss...
Discipline and Dedication: Lets Get It...
Lesson of 2011: Don’t look to anyone but God and myself for answers. Because with anyone else, its an automatic fail.
Discipline and dedication are my focus for this year. I have a really bad habit that if I don’t want to do something, I won’t do it. Or I’ll put it off. Or I won’t give it my all. Thats not right…there are some things you just have to do....
