Dirty Diana

Y'all this right here is the truth IMO allot of folks try to do a MJ remake and no one ever comes close to making the song sound better than the original.....now I'm not saying this song is better but damn it...its pretty damn close....and y'all know how i feel about MJ....The Weeknd is in that 1% margin of people that are able to kill MJ song....I love this cover and like I said its not better than the original but its FIRE!!!!! this is my song of the week I hope y'all enjoy....

Play his version then listen to MJ's and let me know if you agree


She's Saying That's Ok
Hey Baby Do What You Please
I Have The Stuff That You Want
I Am The Thing That You Need
She Looked Me Deep In The Eyes
She's Touchin' Me So To Start
She Says There's No Turnin' Back
She Trapped Me In Her Heart

is there a such thing as being too I-N-D-E-P-E-N-D-E-N-T

Every woman wants to be that 5 star chick, Mrs. Independent etc.....Myself included I pride my self on the fact that I have my own everything.....These things are material things however they are mine....but as I sit and think about my life going forward and things I wanna accomplish I start to wonder are my goals a little flawed....its to the point where I wanna own my home before I wanna get married......I want my name and only my name on the mortgage.....I think this way of thinking can cause problems when its comes to making a life with my future husband.....that whole attitude that I don't need a man is something I think I personally take too far....Its ok to be a hard worker and work for things you want.....and expect your man to be able to do the same.....but at the same time you still need be able to admit when you need help...if and when I am married I wanna feel like me and my husband are a team...I don't want it to ever be a power struggle or to have a attitude like I don't need nobody.....I don't know about y'all but sometimes i just be tired of screaming independent all the time......

Empty Prayers

This is my song of the week.....every time I hear this song I scream sing it Mary sing it.....this song is so dope to me...I play it on repeat....I hope yall love the lyrics as much as I do...







so you wanna go thrifting? Here are some tips

what is thrifting? shopping at thrift store,flea market,garage sale,consignment shop or charitable organization with the intent of finding great items for a cheap price...I thrift for this very reason....so I wanna share a few tips I have learned from my mother,grandmother.....

First off you gotta have a open mind....I try not to go into a thrift store looking for anything in particular.....I usually go in with the intent on spending only a certain dollar amount....you got to know thrifting can be a hit or miss....your not always going to find something every single time....and this should not discourage....not all thrift stores are created equal....when I say that I am speaking in terms of pricing,organization and cleanness....so keep that in mind

Some myths you may hear is that you gotta go to the "rich" neighborhoods to find good thrift stores....no ma'am that is not the case...although allot of people donate to their neighborhood thrift store....that is not the only place thrift store get inventory...trust me....and honestly the "rich" neighborhood thrift store be the ones tripping on the prices....I shop all over I google thrift stores,salvation army's, Goodwill's and i look for estate and garage sales.....I suggest this as a way to find good thrift stores use Google.com.....also I know allot of folks don't like thrifting because it seems unsanitary....its called soap and water that is all....

when your first trying to thrift I suggest starting off with belts.purse,blazers and then working your way up to clothing.....I also wear leggings,tshirt and shoes I can slip off easy when I go shopping.....so I can try things on right in the isle no dressing rooms for me...allot of thrift stores have only one or two dressing rooms and they are always full with old people waiting to try on scarfs lol.....Also ask the workers when they have their sale days...allot of thrift store have colored tag days...for example on red tag day all red tags are half off....Goodwill's usually have one day a week when everything in the store is half off....and also they offer discount cards (I got mine) so don't be afraid to ask about these perks.....and finally when shopping just cause it may be a skirt doesn't mean you gotta wear it as one....What I mean is don't pass up on something try to think how you can turn it into to something else....I have a long black skirt I turned into a tube dress....and if you have the tummy for it you can turn short skirts into tops....I hope this was helpful now get out there and thrift....

Finally Famus



I have finally decided to get this review out the way.....Big Sean seems to have popped out of nowhere.....He was discovered if you will, by Kanye.....but the first time I heard him was his song called "My Last"....didn't know who he was or what he looked like either....it wasn't until I saw him in Kelly Rowland video for "Lay it on me" that I even cared to put a name with the face.....Although I like his singles I didn't care to get the album.....It wasn't until I heard him on Wale joint "Slight Work" that I really Noticed him....His verse on the song made me want to buy his album....So I got the album and its wiggity,wiggity,wiggity whack (in my Chris Cross voice).....imma be honest I can't even get through the whole album......other than the singles I have no clue what this man is talking about......He has this catch phrase he does through out the whole album....where he says "bong and do it" a million times.......

Here is my problem with Big Sean first off the album is disappointing....I'm like ain't this Kanye dude? If you listen to the singles the people he have Featured on the song make the song without them the songs would be trash....."My Last" does not sound like Big Sean ft Chris Brown....It sounds Like Chris Brown featuring his Big Sean....."Marvin and Chardonnay" sounds like its Roscoe Dash featuring everyone else....and "Ass" is only dope because of the remix with Nicki Minaj.....He has a song with with Rick Ross and Pusha T called "100 keys" Big Sean sounds so damn lost on this song im not sure if he knows what he is talking about....I'm sorry dude does not have his own style or sound...damn near every song is featuring another rapper......he has some dope people on his album but it still didn't camouflage his whackness....and that bong sound he does is fucking annoying....the whole album is confusing and your left thinking what the hell was that...that is if you can get through the whole album without throwing it out the window.......I give this album ♥ two hearts out of  five only cause I cant make a half heart.....dont waste your money on this one yall

Tiff has a idea i wanna share

Just wanted to share an idea I have with my ladies who have children....here on blogspot you can turn your blog into a book for like $15 hard cover or soft....so I was thinking i wish i had a Baby because i would make one blog post a month all the way up until he turned one....each post would be about what my child over came that month and fun things my child did that month along with pictures....but each post would be told like a chapter to a story....i would add pictures of my child that month in every post...and on my child's One year Bday i would turn the blog into a book....and keep it as a Little keep sake....I thought this was a cute and fun idea...so I decided to share with my ladies since I don't have kids i figure someone would love this idea and want to do it......it would be a cute little childrens book

D.C or Nothing

This is my song of the week....I love this song because although he is talking about D.C life....I can relate to each lyric...this song shows all hoods ghettos are parallel we all have the same struggle....he touches on so many issues in the black community in this song....i have played this song over and over and have dissected each lyric....I must say im feeling the fuck out of this song...Wale made this song cry....


WALE
"D.C. or Nothing"

A king's assassination is why most often fear the hell
So needless to say this, leadership is not with a timid sail
I pray these words live and these gimmicks fail and
I pray whenever I'm seen in my city I forever resemble Braille
May your trees be loud, and your queens be proud
May you see your dreams allowed, before you see them from a cloud
May your glass never reach half-empty, may your enemies find the
Inner-peace before it ever get to beef
I wish you, wealth, health, and pact-free women for yourself and the shit
Ain't the best, hope these lyrics help... my nigga

Ambition

"Beautiful music, painting pictures that be my vision
They gon love me for my ambition
Easy to dream a dream, though it’s harder to live it
Look, they gon love me for my ambition
Beautiful music, painting pictures that be my vision
They gon love me for my ambition"




Wale Folarin (Olubowale Victor Akintimehin) is signed with Maybach Music Group aka Rick Ross and em.....dropped Ambition his 2nd studio album released 11/1/11 (he has a fresh ass mix tape titled 11/1/11 theory check it out).....imma be honest the only song I remember of his was "Pretty Girls".....but apparently he started out as a local rapper in his home town of D.C and had a popular song called "Dig Dug"....His debut album with Interscope in 2009 titled "Attention Deficit" didn't sale good but got good reviews..... I'm not going to pretend like I have been #teamwale since he been out....One day I was riding with my girl Lexi and she was bumping the hell out of Wale....I was like who is this she looked at me like I was tardy (because i was) and was like Girl this Wale.....all I remember thinking was "damn he got a flow like Pac".....he makes you think like Pac did....now I'm speaking for myself and I'm not saying he the new Pac not comparing them either two completely different artist.....he is what I call a conscience rapper.....and for that I am now #teamwale #teamBOA #teamambition

Now lets get to the album....ok so every single song on this album is dope I swear.....He has 15 tracks and you can tell he was in the studio grinding....what I like about this album is each song tells a story but its not just random stories....each song is like a chapter pulls the whole album together....all though I love every single song and its hard to pick a favorite "D.C or Nothing" track 14 is probably my Fave ugh it's so hard to choose lol....He has a song with Lloyd called "Sabotage" that is hot as well....."illest Bi***" and of course "Ambition" although I cant stand Meek Mills voice Rick Ross and Wale make up for it.....I say buy the album if you wanna hear someone talking about real ish I give this album 5 out of 5 hearts ..

i heard she got a white man....o_O

Interracial Dating/Miscegenation: Marriage or sexual relations between individuals of different races...aka Jungle Fever.....

I get asked allot how is it to date a white man....I'm wondering is it supposed to be different? If so I need a refund....for some reason people assume that dating a white man some how implies your dating better....where this idea comes from idk....but I will say this it has nothing to do with my mans race that I'm dating "better" trust me when I say this its the man not the skin color....I hear allot of women saying I'm going to get me a white man...as if this will solve her problems with men....I go thru the same exact things with this white man that I went thru with black men...so I think you'll find its a man thing not a race thing....

I have witnessed many side eyes from surprisingly black people other races don't seem to care at all.....anytime this has happen it has either been a older black couple or a young black man.....I remember being in Walmart with my boyfriend and his black guy with his girlfriend cuts me in line......not only did he cut in front of me but he turns around to stare my boyfriend down like he was daring my boyfriend to say something....I'm like dude its the express lane and you only got one item....you can go in front its not a big deal....Most recently I posted a video of me and Lee on my YouTube channel doing a boyfriend tag....Some guy again black made a comment calling me a "sell out white mans black bitch".....now me being the lady I am lol deleted the comment and blocked the person....the person goes and makes a new YouTube channel just so he could come back and comment again....Really is it that serious? when we are out and about all stares come from black guys.....I honestly don't have a clue on why they act so pressed....If you guys wont me to make some big parade on how much I love black men its not going to happen.....I don't need to run around screaming my love for black men....just to make y'all happy....I'm a black woman and it should be clear as day...who I chose to love should be least of a black mans worries....

I don't know why other people date out side their race....I can only speak for myself its called falling and love with the person and not their looks,color,social status,money etc.....I don't remember society ever caring about who I dated until I started dating a white man lol.....

let me end with this...I know its easy to assume that all black men are dogs...often times we see other races relationships and it seems as if they don't have the same issues we have with our men....deadbeats,jail birds,abusers,drug users/dealers etc.....I haven't done a study on this or anything...but its has been proven that its the person...a man will be a man....its nothing wrong with wanting to date outside your race...just make sure your doing for the right reasons....what are the right reasons you ask? LOVE!!!!!!


I Still Believe

this is my pick for the song of the week....I have been in such low spirits lately...this songs reminds me that even when I feel alone....I need to remember god is always here with me....I decided to share it with you guys and hopes if your having one of those days....where you just wanna give up...this song will help you get thru it just by reminding you to believe always in the Lord and he will see you thru.....this is my cousin Barbara singing I hope you guys enjoy her voice as much as I do....


Crystal Lewis cover by 
Barbara "I Still Believe"



"just when i think my faith is gone
i hear your sweet voice crying out hold on
it’s amazing how we, we’re always meant to be
and now i can breathe again"

Dear People I love the Most.....

Sometimes I feel like I am not a good friend/sister/daughter/niece to the people I love the most.....I do not come around.call or text......My family friends can literally count on one hand how many times they have been over my house....and some have never been over and honestly they probably wont ever either...I just need you, guys to understand me and accept me for whom I am...I will explain to you guys why I am like this and I hope you, guys will understand.....

I grew up in an one parent home with my mommy and three sisters...as far as I could remember there was always someone living with us....we never had a house with just us....I never had my own room as a kid or my own bed....I shared a bed with my big sister Vanessa all the way until i was 18........not because we piss poor but because my mama was always letting someone live with us....as a kid I watched things and observed things happen to my mom.....I witnessed my mom letting folks live with us with their kids and she would be the only one that worked.....Every single person that has ever lived with us dogged me and my sisters out while my mom was at work point blank period....these were often family members or friends of the family....I clear as day remember my mom would be at work and her so called friends and my so called relative would talk about her right in front of us....call her an unfit mother, nasty and ugly I even heard people call her a whore. These very same people lived with her and did not work sat home all day and smiled in my mothers face when she got home from work.

I was always the outspoken one I would take up for my mom....and speak my mind so I was considered the smart mouth child who thought she was grown.....I always felt like i was a threat to people...like literally grown ass women would lie on me to get my in trouble so that i could get a whopping....I did not get very many whippings and I can remember every single one of them...and I never felt like any of them were ever justified....I always felt I only got whippings because I was a child that spoke the truth and the truth hurt..The so called adults that were punishing me were not punishing me because i misbehaved...but because they did not like my smart mouth ass and could not wait at the chance to beat my ass....every adult that was supposed to protect me as a kid hurt me and broke that trust.....as a kid adults are supposed to protect you from harm not bring harm your way.....I have so much resentment towards allot of people based off the things I went thru and witnessed as a kid......

my child hood was not all peaches and creams but I am not fucked up about it....I did not turn into this wild rebellious teenager/adult....what I did was build a wall to protect me from getting hurt...and it carried on with me as an adult...my loud aggressive do not fuck with me attitude....this is the why I fought allot in school....I had this I am going to get you before you get me....I had so much resentment towards my mom....one because she was too damn kind to people and got taken advantage of all the time....two because I am just like her even though i have been fighting all my life not to be.....I hated that she worked all the time...and me and my sisters would be at home getting treated like orphans...she was our only protection and I thought she failed....and I swore to myself  I would never ever let things like that happen to me.

That is why I do not let folks in my home....its my shield of protection against the world....I can control what happens in my home....That's why I do not come around that often...because it lessens the chances of me being hurt by people I love the most. I have allot of hurt in my heart and 99% of it was caused by people that I love.....I hope one day God heals my heart and soul so that I can change.....until then I just ask that my friends and family understand me and know that I love you, guys with all my heart...although I may not come around I am working every day to change.....the few friends that I have are my friends for a reason....I know beyond a shadow of a doubt you, guys would never intentionally try to hurt me......I thank y'all for that....

“Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that, and living alone won't either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on earth. You are here to risk your heart. You are here to be swallowed up. And when it happens that you are broken, or betrayed, or left, or hurt, or death brushes near, let yourself sit by an apple tree and listen to the apples falling all around you in heaps, wasting their sweetness. Tell yourself you tasted as many as you could.”
Louise Erdrich, The Painted Drum

That's just the business I'm in, yeah"

I'm #teamdoyouboo

so i am a YouTube junky lol i soooo need an intervention because i can watch YouTube vids for hours.....newho what sparked this blog post doesn't have anything to do with YouTube as a whole but more of a comment i seen on YouTube......where this lady wrote a novel on this other ladies video basically telling her she is a hood rat and uneducated.....i wanted to comment back but its not my place....I'm thinking to myself she must be doing something right because you took time out your day to write her.....i cant stand when another woman tries to be little another woman because she doesn't approach life the way you do...i been called ghetto so many times in my life...just as recently as last week another woman call me ghetto.....that word offends the hell out of me..well let me rephrase that when someone uses that word in a derogatory manner it offends me.....like hol up swole up lady get that stick out your a** and watch what you say....but i ignored the comment as if i didn't hear it and still had a good time.....I'm a very good people reader and as sure as my middle name is Marie I'm certain she is insecure.....I'm very loud and out spoken very friendly and all around happy person....My confidence in who i am is worn proudly on my chest....I'm from the "hood" and guess what I'm proud of it....i will always be true to myself....so if that's ghetto so be it but just remember its not often i give out passes to a rude ASS BITCH! how you durin (in my Wendy voice)....

yea its some ratchets out here and we all know um all so well...but i find it just as ratchet to speak down on someone based off of what you see....not knowing that person at all....when will women get the message that we are all different....from all different walks of life and up bringing....we wont all share the same values and or culture....we all have different aspirations and ambitions in life....we all have are own struggles yeah some self inflicting but often because of life.....before you start calling someone nasty or a h** because she has a reputation....instead of bullying her because that's exactly what it is bullying...try to uplift her and show her you respect her purely based off the fact that she is Gods child.....here is a little advice, worry about your so character, not your reputation because your character is who you are and your reputation is what people think you are.....focus on doing you boo and you wont have time to even notice someone else flaws.

10/27/11

what does your man think?

 I'm asked all the time....what does your man think about your hair?....since being natural I can honestly say he is happy as long as I'm happy......I didn't ask his opinion before I decided to go natural either....I told him of my plans and when I would do it....his response was simply "ok"....honestly I don't think he even knew what going natural meant lol....That's just the way he is.... real laid back and doesn't take things so serious ....my hair is never a topic unless I ask him if my new hair style is cute......it feels good also because he always makes me feel so pretty...I couldn't imagine him not liking something physically about me but hey I guess he reserves that right....to sum it all up my man is ok with my hair being NAPPY!

NeWho....when it comes to other men chiiiiiiild please (insert snaps here)....I haven't skipped a beat with my pretty brown frame lol.....no but seriously I have noticed men approach me differently now.....Honestly they come at me like they got some since....I don't get that "Aye Bay Bay" its more excuse me miss lady....I guess they kinda stereotype me because of my hair.....and assume I'm some tree hugging, poem writer and Jill Scott is my hero chick or something idk.....men always tell me how much they love my hair especially when I'm rocking my twist....so as far as do I get hit on less since I've went natural the answer is of course not....men still love my cute ass lol


*this pic was one day after my "BC"

Close to you.....

 this song right here.....this song right here tho......Ron comes in so smooth followed by the never disappointing Ms. Hill....this song to me is what you call good music...it doesn't need much of a intro...press play sit back and close your eyes and think about your boo while the song plays....


Ron Isley ft Lauryn Hill
"close to you"




"On the day that you were born
And the angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust
In your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue."

Thank You.....

This song is so freaking DOPE
and i thought you guys deserved to hear some good music so enjoy
SideNote: doesnt this song have a Sade feel to it?
is it me or is Estelle the only UK singer where you can hear her accent when she sings?

Estelle: Thank You





"One thing I learned in life
We all gotta go through to survive
I hope she's happy
'Cause you're the chapter that I'll be closing
Hope you're happy
'Cause once my door closes it won't be open"

Cee-Lo Green ft. Melanie Fiona



"Bbay I can’t seem to get enough

Makes me want to love you
Baby, I don’t even have a choice
And if I did it still be you
Cuz you’re the man, among these other boys"

Beyonce with her stealing ass

Beyonce Knowles AKA King B.....steals everything even this newly found nickname she is going by "King B" she stole this from some video editor named Vashite who calls her self  King...Vashite tweeted "It's so entertaining that broads are referring to themselves as King" ...and honestly if we want to get technical Queen Elizabeth I was often called King Elizabeth because she held the throne never being married....so I will let them figure that one out.......moving right along


Beyonce is accused of stealing songs such as..."if i were a boy" she stole the whole damn song and did not even give credit.....then lets talk about single ladies vid...she stole the routine from Mexican Breakfast.....and please do not forget her infamous performance on Billboard Music Awards of "RTW" she ripped off that entire opening choreography......but what brings me to write this is her latest stunt she completely stole choreographers Anne Keermaeker entire routine in her newest video "countdown".......now I love B and I surely think she is the best of her time right now...but if she wants to be an innovator she needs to stop with the plagiarism.....you cannot be an innovator and all yo shit is jacked.....point fucking blank....she needs to hire a new team if she keeps finding her self in this situation.....last time I check innovators don't swagger jack....all you B stans explain this one? aw yea ok.....


what pisses me off is she steals the shit from people over seas.....and honestly i think it's because she thinks no one will ever notice...and she would of jacked the African dance moves in RTW but they could not figure out the dance and had to find them.....smh at her! Somebody is going to end up suing her ass.....
now watch Anne Video

thats real janky B real fucking janky

You on that Whitney?.....*Kanye Shrug*

so im on lunch with my coworkers...and i dont know how the convo started but we began to talk about addictions....and how i felt that any form of addiction is ok as long as you can justify your addiction and support your habit....so im speaking in terms of substance abusers, sex addicts etc......alot of people give me the o_O (side eye)...alot of folks would say omg how could anyone in their right mind justify being addicted to drugs.....and how could i be ok with it.

well for me i dont ever like to act as if my life is better because im not doing what the next person does. for me im like how can one look and see what crack does to a person and in the year 2011 pick up a crack pipe, needle, snort whatever you do with the drug and think hey I'll just do it this one time.....this crack shit aint new its not the 80's anymore we know what the shit is and what it can do.....so personally i believe if you are a person in the year 2011 smoking crack your doing it cause you want to...and hey who am i to judge you. as long as you can support your habit......

now before you guys get bent all out of shape NO i dont think its ok.....im not a supporter of the drug and any one on it i think needs help....i bet your like tiff but your contradicting yourself now......well i may be lol...but to sum it all up here is my point....everyone is affected by things in different ways.....there are some substance abuser out here that work, have college degrees, are raising their kids and you would never know they have an addiction....and then their are some folks that are purely strung out and need intervention.....in my eyes an addict is an addict.....and me personally i dont feel sorry for any one strung out on any substance....and anyone with relatives that are addicts know its hard and you can spend your whole life trying to get them to kick the habit......and for the ones that are clean and been clean im sure they had a support group and was able to become clean....but at the end of the day they had to do it on there own...im sorry but if you on that shit your selfish and im not about to feel sorry for you! Or spend anytime trying to convince you that the addiction is bad....like i said the drug isnt new we all know the affect of it...so why should i feel sorry for you? do what you do!

I Aint Saying She a Gold Digger! :)

i feel like I'm always blogging about other folks life....but mine is so boring lmao.....

its this chick I'm very cool with she always got some dude spending money on her ass....so i like to hear her little stories lol......so she was telling me how she met this guy and he owns his own business..... actually i know exactly who he is lol.....KC is too small so i wont be sharing any of his info......so she is really feeling him..... he has great convo he takes her on dates y'all know all the cute shit.....ok so they been talking for a month and he invites her over his house this weekend to watch the fight.....he gives her the address.....she telling me she was driving up and down the a major street and couldn't find his house.....so she calls him and was like im lost where do you stay exactly....she says he is like ill come outside so you can see me....ok she pulls up and realizes his business and house share the same address....y'all she is is instantly turned off....she didn't want to be rude so she stays to watch the fight

now she says she gets into his apartment and its really nice....as she got settled she forgot she was even upstairs from a shop.....now she says this guy has no kids owns his own business and has a degree....but she cant get with the fact his apartment is over his business......she thinks this means he is not handling his money and his business isn't successful....smh y'all I'm like hol up hol up hol up hol up hol the fuck up.....

Ok so this guy so far is a catch i see no reason to cute him off....i think he is smart living above his shop saves hella money...and as she stated its set up very nice.....what do us real women have to do to find someone like this....shit if she don't want him i know a few that would love all over him and treat him like a King.....now they have only known each other a month but he hasn't done anything crazy he still in good graces....give the guy a chance....what do y'all think?

I Get Out!!!!

I get out, I get out of all your boxes
I get out, you can't hold me in these chains
I'll get out
Father free me from this bondage
Knowin' my condition
Is the reason I must change

I was having a very convo with one of my home girls.....this particular person opinion/advice i listen too....again she is not that older than me....but she is older so in my opinion she a little wiser....anyway she noticed a pair of earrings in my ear...and she stated that my whole style is changing....now today I'm standing in my bedroom and i show my bf my hair.....i just got it braided....he made the statement where is Tiffany? Which have inspired this blog.....


I have gone my whole life being this "ghetto girl" allot of people may have their own opinion of who i am......when i do things i can assure its by choice.....imma break somethings down for all my ladies reading....people fear the unknown...meaning when someone cant put you in a box....you either become 1. a prototype or 2. Ridiculed....people have to be able to label you....and i just chose not to be put in a box I'm claustrophobic (self diagnosed lol).....but for real i cant stand to feel closed in.....i love to learn and educate myself...and sometimes after reading our watching something my opinion about things can change....not to mean I'm easily persuaded....i decided to go natural not because its a fad but because i literally woke up one day and said no more perms.....i didn't realize so many people were natural until now.....so don't think I'm just on the bandwagon...

let me just get to the point.....i refuse to be put in a box...or feel i have to be a certain way just because I'm "black".....i love life i love people...i love learning about cultures other than my own.....in my opinion God did not create race...he created Man Kind....like my first point people need to put you in a box in order to justify actions...I'm not tryna get all sista soldier on yah....i have soooo much i can say on this topic but i want y'all to listen to my girl Lauryn Hill song "I Get Out"...she sums up all my thoughts on this joint

if you smoke crack guess what no more WELFARE!

What do y'all think about the government making folks take drug test for assistants? I think its damn good.....the only thing I'm worried about is the ones that fail the test....when they lose their EBT and section 8....will they start robing folks for money?.....people out here getting $999.99 in stamps....living in four bedroom houses....all utilities paid by whom you ask? The mf'ing government.....and how and the hell does the government get this money? taxes paid by whom people that work.....yes I'm hating because I'm tired of standing in line at walmart with enough to eat lunch at work for the next two weeks....while the lady in front of me got two carts full of zooms zooms and wham whams.....now look I'm not talking about the folks who need it.....I'm not talking about the folks that need a hand up....I'm talking about the ones needing a hand out....now if someone is giving you money and taking care of you....then you are damn fucking right you gotta do what they ask you to do....if not then get a job.

people get all bent out a shape when folks say something about people getting government assistants....i been on section 8 and i haven't had a kid in my life....they paid a whole $45 of my $395 rent and i was unemployed.....but i was grateful and i got my ass a job.....that brings me to my next point....the ones that work low paying jobs on purpose so they don't lose section 8.....what part of the game is that? laaaaaaawd help these chicken heads. or the ones that work long enough to get a income tax check at the end of the year...

if your not on drugs.....if your needing a hand up and not looking for a hand out.....you shouldn't be offended...i would love to hear from people who think doing the drug test is bad and why.....i have a job which stands for Just Over Broke.....I'm a pay check away from repo and eviction.....so i definitely need to improve my savings.....but i work and i work hard.....I'm apart of America too but it has been made very clear unless i have a few kids.....the government ain't paying for shit....matter of fact they gone say i owe some taxes lol....anyway y'all better start tryna get clean out here uncle Sam said he tired of y'all shit.

who that is that? just my baby daddy!

Some people will not date a person with kids....even if they have kids themselves....i am not one of those people....but i can surely understand why someone would feel this way.....due to the bd/bm drama people choose not to deal with it at all....but what do you do when kids are apart of the equation? some people instantly jump into roles where they are playing stepmother or father.....allot of women have this idea if I'm dating the man I'm dating the kids too....now to me that isn't true and imma tell you why.

Dating a person with kids doesn't make you anything to those kids at all.....even if they are missing a father or mother figure...entering into a child's life is not to just play a "role".......i am currently in a relationship with a guy who has two children i have zero.....and i would say from day one he has made it very clear that he is a father and a proud one....and that his kids come first....so on weekends when he had his kids we didn't hang out......he didn't just bring his kids around like hey this my girlfriend, and these are my kids y'all make it happen.....he has a son whom i adore he is my little helper and he comes around allot....now his daughter not so much....and i respect that because a man shouldn't parade women around his daughter in my opinion...now as this relationship has progressed the kids are around more....but we don't have this big family thing where we all hang out all the time

I was having a talk with one of my old coworkers and she had expressed to me how she found it weird that I'm not an active role in his kids life......she feels that anytime she is dating and the relationship is serious she has to know if the guy is a right fit, not only for her but for her kids too.....and i totally understand her point....but here is mine i don't have kids and dating a person with kids does not make me a mother.....and I'm sure the "mother" word is a over statement but i don't feel the need to have these big family outings.....or to make myself a role in their life.....I'm totally ok with seeing them every once in a while...... now his daughter yeah i wanna spoil her and "hang out".....but in due time.

now for those of you guys who have dated someone with kids or have had man around your kids.....what role did they play..... was it a father figure? now what happens when the relationship goes sour and y'all break it off? how do you explain that to your kids? now im sure the kids will get over the breakup faster then you.....but do you bring your next boyfriend around too....whats your time frame before you bring your relationship into your family life...feel free to share your thoughts!

this fall child im geeked!!!!

ok its almost fall and I'm excited this is not my fave season....however I'm excited about all the upcoming events....I'm not doing much but chances are we will be having a ball......I'm into the blazers ( omg I'm watching a movie and they just totally messed up the time line).....its a coral colored blazer this bad boy is $42 i just cant make myself buy it....i know the goodwill has some so yea that's where I'm headed.

also i plan on wearing makeup...now i know how to put on eyeshadow and liner...i don't have a clue on how to do anything else...so imma be checking out some YouTube vids for pointers and of course sharing them with my ladies....my changes aren't gonna be just for looks....I've already changed and i love it i hope my blog shows my growth in the future....

the heart of a single married woman

I meet a lot of older women that are wise in age as well as mind.....even if they are just a few years older they always offer wisdom to me.....i had a chance to speak with a lady.....i had just got done crying and she asked what was wrong....so i told her and from there we bonded and every time i see her we catch up....she has been married for three years and with her husband 15 years before they were married so a total of 18yrs.......now this woman of course has went thru hell and back in this relationship.....she was telling me a story of when she worked at Burger King as a Manager and her then boyfriend was sleeping with one of the cashiers......and she had no idea until one day the girl was mad at him and told her everything.....she said she beat the breaks off that girl and was arrested and lost her job.....he also got two different women pregnant during the relationship.....both of those kids are older than the two she has with him.....he has full custody of one since she was 2yrs so she is raising her......she says for like a year he left her to be with some random chick...and the sad thing about it is he moved literally around the corner dog......

now y'all know I've asked why and the hell is she with him.....she says she has dated and actually loved other men but it doesn't last....because she becomes so jealous and insecure the relationships always end.....she says the whole year he was gone she missed his ass like crazy but she did not call him not once....and he came back one day and she let him back no questions asked.....he proposed and they have been married three years now.....and she says she still cant trust him...she doesn't have any proof he is cheating but she knows him well enough.....so she is in this marriage that appears happy but in the inside she feels so insecure.....i could not imagine being in something like that....i never like to tell anyone to leave because i know its easier said then done.....but she deserves to be happy when your man touches you...your supposed to fell like that touch is yours...

i tell her about my relationship and all the mess i put up with and deal with....and she tells me to take it day by day.....but sometimes just think about her situation makes me want to get out this mess before i be in her shoes......i wonder why do we accept so much from men....he got two women pregnant on her and he left her for a year and moved around the damn corner....I'm sure he has done other shit.....like why do we give so many chances? i hope and pray that if this relationship is meant to stand the test of time....that i do not end being the insecure woman forcing myself to make a marriage work that was over 15 years ago.....smh.

if you're reading this please comment i would love to know.....your thoughts on why you think we stay in relationships that are unhealthy.....and if you are one of those women that leave the first time and never look back...i wanna know how you were able to do it?

Things to look forward too!

hey ladies sooooo I've decided to start posting my outfits and how much the items cost and where i purchased them from :)....not to brag its strictly to prove you can look cute and still shop at places like rainbow, F21, wetseal,goodwill etc.....i don't think i own anything name brand and if i do it was on sale....now I'm no damn fashion expert nothing but I'm a woman and i like dressing nice so i think i can help some ladies out.....number on rule i follow is i never let others dictate my pockets....if i don't got it i don't got it...and if i got it and i want it i get it....i never shop to show off i never get dressed to impress....i just like looking like a lady.....

ok so this fall I'm rocking the blazers :) soooo yall know I'm headed to the goodwill to find some cute blazers....i think I'm not sure yet i might get a little into makeup idk yet.......that mess take too much time tho...so yeah shoes,hair and all that girly stuff are the plans for my blog.....

Sol-Angel And The Hadley St. Dreams CD review


"I know you think you love me
But love ain't never stopped nobody
From creeping around every once in a while
When things start to settle down
And so I won't look like a clown
I' m a call it now....I told you so"
ok so I'm at Walmart to pick up a few things....one of em being Jill Scott newest album....while i was looking for her joint i stumbled upon Solange cd.....it was five bucks so I'm like what the heck....girl this CD has been on heavy rotation since i put the joint in....it came out back in 2008 and honestly i feel like a missed out on three years worth of damn good music.....her vocals on this album are amazing she isn't tryna sound like anybody else....point blank home girl is underrated....

the first song on the album "God given name" she is saying don't put her in a box she isn't her sister....this song is a perfect start to the album....its perfect for the first track.....ok honey every joint on the album is my fav i don't skip not one....click this link so you can hear all the songs and get the lyrics......http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=7716559


i love music and enjoy giving my reviews....i say give her a chance its at walmart for only $5...i promise when you put the album in you will love it....yes you gotta listen to her...isn't that the point of music...you gotta listen to hear the point the person is tryna make...once you hear it you'll understand why i said she is underrated....

Dear Fucking Parents!

These kids of ours are bad ass hell point blank.......these little ragga muffins are running around with guns shooting up the plaza....so y'all know the white folk are like hell to the no....not because some black kids got hurt but because it isn't a good look for the plaza...they will start losing money blah blah blah....ok I'm on twitter and it was asked what do we suggest we do for these kids to keep them busy....maybe a little spot like we had when i was younger hot summer night stuff like that.....I'm about to be real blunt and sorry if i come of ignorant I'm far from that but....these bad ass hoodlums don't deserve a damn thing if you ask me....i wouldn't pay a dime to help fund shit for these Bae Bae's.....they need to have a seat right now....ok these kids don't deserve us to build or supply anything for them...and those who do are already taking advantage of what we have in kc to do...no kid under the age of 18 needs to be out after 10pm any way on the weekends.....so don't come asking me to help support these little killers ok sorry but that's how i feel.....

Ok lets get to you grown ass people....who do y'all think these kids are learning these behaviors from? it sure ain't from the movies.... there isn't a urban club in KC that i don't gotta worry about becoming a innocent by stander....all because i wanna here some jezzy and shit....i cant mingle with my hood folks unless i wear a bullet proof....because pookie and them go shoot up the place....ill be the first to admit i love urban clubs i don't wanna hear no damn Taylor Swift, Toby Kieth shit when i go out.....I want to hear all Rich shit and all the cuss words too....call me classless or ghetto whatever but i like to party with my people...but i cant do that because we act a plum fool....

When i walk into a black club i instantly become defensive I'm ready to react to the first sign of tension....when the club let out i take my shoes off and just in case i gotta run lol.....and for this very reason i don't take my ass to the clubs....so my point is this if the adults are killing each other....what the hell do you think these kids gone do? So forget a fund to save our youth...these kids need to be put in jail the parents need to be giving fines point blank....if a kid is caught with a gun take them to jail and charge them like an adult....and the parent needs to do community service and pay restitution...they should also have to take parenting classes....

am i my brothers keeper?

I know some of yall reading this title like really tiff?......so for some that means imma watch over my brother you would be right.....alot of folks know that these words are spoken in the bible and they would be correct it is.....some got these words tatted on their body and honestly its something to be admired......but lets jump to the point.....who spoke those words? that would be Cain ok so who is he? he was the first murder in the bible....and your probably wondering who he murdered right....well that would be a big ol duh....he killed his only brother Abel....Cain chose to take Abel down, he committed premeditated murder....God ask Cain hey where is your bro Abel? (God already knew but wanted to see what Cain was going to say)....He replied what am i my brothers keeper? like dude im not his baby sitter you go find him.....that's how that saying came about those words are utter from a man who killed his brother out of jealousy....im not saying don't take it and turn it into a positive just don't try and say its in the bible unless you know the history of it.....

My point is alot of people will take bits and pieces from the bible to justify their actions...like its ok to do something simply because its in the bible....ok sir imma need to know the scripture so i can read what came before and after who said it and why.....Just remember for everything you find in the bible to justify your actions...someone can find something to show why your actions are wrong....the Bible purpose in my opinion is not to be used in that way....it is to be used as a tool to educate you and guide you....remember the devil knows the bible like the back of his hand....so dont you think he is using scriptures every day to try and trick you.....so its the same when you foolishly quote a scripture without knowing its history.....and if you are an uneducated christian you should go throwing scriptures at folks unles you know what your talking about....because using the word to condemn some one will make them not want to become Christians....so guess what your doing the devils work for him....be careful of what you speak and claim is in the bible ok....

watch out for the crazy ass naturals!!!!

so i did a youtube vid on this topic but took it down after a week lol why? idk girl!....newho so lets just jump right in to the title i know this is why your reading.....so I'm a newbie with this natural thing....however i did tons of research before i decided to go ol natural....and with doing this research i discovered that some of us natural hair ladies are some crazy asses lmao.....really its like some think being natural is a secret society some type of ish....i like to call these type of women "Super Naturals" or "Crazy Ass Naturals"....they try to dictate what you should or shouldn't do to your hair....I'm like hold up swole up lady where is your cosmetology licence?  Riiiiiiiiight you dont have one....

Basically they try to talk as if there is some rule book to being natural....some go as far to try an tell you how you should dress....really i didn't sign up for all that....i just wanna embrace my naps without your input please and thank you....for example apparently when you are natural there are some ingredients you are not suppose to use...but I'm like wait a min when my grandmother use to do my hair all she used was grease in water...some naturals believe if you dye your hair then your not natural....basically they think putting any kind of chemical in your hair that alters its natural state is a big no no...and i just don't agree if that's the case then we shouldn't put anything in our hair right...because when i put some grease up in my head....I'm trying to alter my hairs natural dry ass state lol...is this a no no? my hair doesn't naturally wash it self....i got throw some shampoo in my head to alter it naturally dirty state....ok and what about deodarant?  i can name alot of things that alter my natural state....but im sure yall get my point

Whats up with this natural vs relaxers crap too...honey these "Super Naturals" act like militants for real (insert my loud laugh here)...no disrespect to any of my Jehovah Witnesses but that's how they act....all ways giving out crap and condemning you for not following their hair bible....I did not know there was such a thing I'm still looking for this rule book/bible for the naturals....i know sooooo many relaxed sistas with hair down they backs...thick and full of volume and bounce...relaxers were created by a black woman with the intent to help us manage our hair...and honestly just like any beauty regimen is you don't take the precautions when applying a relaxer of course your hair will fall out.....news flash that's with anything...now do i think relaxed hair is the healthiest hair....no but that's my opinion......

All jokes a side ladies embrace you...don't trip off your hair...relaxed or natural just remember why you decided to go natural...don't do it for anyone else but for you....and beware of the "Super Naturals"...don't let these crazy people tell you anything but where to get some good products for your hair....rather you press, relax, rocking a fro, dreads, a fade, shoot even you lace front ladies...heck even you hard hair style wearing ladies....oh the heck with it even you ten colors and five hair styles on one head ladies lmao....embrace who you are and excuse my french but f#@k the rest do you boo!....as long as you are combing your hair then that's all that matters...

ready to have my own family!

so im sitting here like arggghhhh!!!!! lmao really tho i have so many things going around my head...mostly concerning my relationship o_O....lol as most of you may know we just made it to our 2yr mark....ill be honest i didn't think we would make it or even be together.....buuuut here we are so with that being said....im having that baby itch.....and im shocked like wtf do i want a baby i haven't even finished school....and i always said i wouldn't be a mommy until i finished school...not that you cant get your masters and have kids i just don't want to do that...i mean i wanna work smarter not harder...anyways like i was saying im having this feeling like imma be a mommy....like i know imma have me a baby...the funny thing is if i have a kid it wont be with my current...soooo now im having these thoughts like well whats the point of spending anymore time trying to make this relationship work when we will never have kids together?

Allot of you are probably like why cant you have kids with him? lol well its along story.....anyways so im here 2yrs into a relationship and finally im like NO! i cant accept the fact that we will never conceive a child together....but its not that easy to just break up not when everything else is ok....i think to myself all the time like why did we meet....honestly i feel i could of went the rest of my life without ever meeting him....its like winning the lottery but being told you can never spend the money! now i can think of a million other reason why this relationship wont work....but the only one that cant be fixed is the baby issue....

So back to the why? i wonder every day what was the point of this relationship...sometimes it crosses my mind well maybe i cant have kids....or maybe im not meant to be a mother like my moms tells me....or maybe God put this man in my life to serve as a branch in my tree of life...getting me ready for the one im "meant" to marry....so many thoughts run thru my head....but right now im taking everything day by day...im still young and if im meant to be a mother one day it will happen....its just like ok God im not questioning you....really im not but coooome on can you give me a little clue on what to do....yah girl be lost sometimes lol....im just ready to start building the foundation for my own family....and if this current relationship is not the foundation DEUCES!!!!
