I've never been so happy for a class 2 be cancld! This Africana studies class that i decided to take so that i could learn about my people and my history is starting to become my biggest regret in college yet!

So now i can blog thru my unlimited text.... Yaaay!!

All Natural Christmas Break pt 2

Okay so here's the update,

I CHOPPED MY HAIR OFF!!! hahahaha. This is the shortest that my hair has ever been! I transitioned for 4 months, starting August 14 and doing my Semi-Big Chop on December 26, 2008!!!

Transitioning Tracks

Permed Ends - Frohawk

Big Chop Results

As you can see, I'm very Happy 2 B Nappy!!!

I'm so excited to watch my hair grow and thicken in its natural state. No more relaxers for this girl! I will finally be proud of my God-given beauty and stop 'TCB No Lye Relaxing' it away. My goal is to be able to wear a puff by summer time; hopefully my hair will cooperate. I am also participating in the 100 day Hair challenge, in which I have to wear protective hairstyles for 100 days. I think this will speed up my Puff Pursiut! 

Always Love

My Escape

Why do things always happen to me?
Is there something that i'm putting out there in the universe that keeps comin back 2 me and kicking me in the butt? I found out today that my cell phone has managed to rack up $100 worth of charges I was unaware of. To add insult to injury, my mom has not paid the bill in two months anyway so I already owe about $100. I have no money at all... so dont let the nickname fool you. I live far from any family and I have no car; what am I going to do without a phone?? I just have to keep pushing forward

I tried to cry today. I couldn't. I can't.

I have to look on the bright side. At least I still have my health. I also recently got accepted to Psychology school at my University. I feel so alone though, even when I'm with my best friends. I shouldn't have 2 deal with all of this stress... school should be my only concern but that only happens in movies.

and that ain't even half of it

Are Those Signs That Say "Caution: Children at Play" Really Necessary Anymore??

Hey,

I didn't have any classes today so I took my little sister to an art museum, because she really likes that sort of stuff. Well I had a great time... but I don't think she had as much fun as I did. First of all, the museum is gorgeous!! There's a pond outside of it and a fountain around back. The building itself is made from some sort of marble from a river in Italy. I don't get to go out much, so I was happy to get a change of scenery. I looked at every exhibit; I especially liked the New Orleans exhibit... I've always wanted to go there. While I was looking around in awe, she just stood in front of the souvenir shop waiting for me. I don't get tweens these days. When I was her age, I would have given anything to get outside and play, go to an amusement park, or a museum or something. But all she wants to do is watch iCarly, Hannah Montana, and those damn Jonas Brothers! She sees nothing wrong with sitting in front of the television set for an entire day with a pint of ice cream.

I remember the days when you had to drive 25mph because a kid playing tag could run out in front or your Car at any minute. Today while driving to the museum I realized something... there were no kids at play. NONE! Its a beautiful day today... school's out for the summer 83 degrees, clear sky, slight breeze. Perfect day for a water fight. But there are no kids in sight. Do you know why? I'll tell you why: because Dance Dance Revolution has taken the place of Physical Education class; because Guitar Hero has replaced endless hours of guitar lessons with the old lady at the end of your block; because watching a 3D music videos on Blu Ray has replaced going to the actual concert. I see my younger sisters falling into this sedimentary lifestyle, and I know it's not just them.

I'm seeing some of these trends in myself too. Most of my professors communicate via e-mail or via chat rooms on their websites, so I don't even have to go to their office to have that one on one contact with them anymore. Even with hanging out with friends, we'll just have a conference on windows live messenger.... WHAT IS HAPPENING TO US!! :p

and that ain't even the half of it,
