Day 16 – Your celebrity crush.

*dreamy look*
Anyone who knows me...and probably some who don't know who this is.
Technically....I don't even consider him a crush anymore...it was a crush in 1991(when he was in that Paula Abdul video for "rush rush")..now, we have an understanding...I'm his soulmate and if we ever met..it would be so on! :)
I love this man..LOVE and not in that creepy superfan way. It's more of a one-sided friendship (only because we haven't met).
I think we would hit it off very well if we met.
My celebrity crush is none other than the amazing human being that is Keanu Reeves!

Oh Keanu...how do I love thee? Let me count the ways!
I love thee with long hair..I love thee with short
I love thee when you grow a beard..I love thee when you're not
I love thee in the movies...I love thee in real life
I love thee when noone else thinks you're a good actor
I just love thee a lot!

I'm going to just leave it there...because I feel like it's getting to a creeptastic level and I don't want to chance him reading this before we meet and deciding that I'm a creeper..which i clearly am not! (-_-)

I STILL have this picture hanging in my room in my parents house! :o

Day 15 – Something you don’t leave the house without.

My cellphone!
Not for nothing...I'm not a serial texter and it's not a Crackberry..THANK GOD! But...it's so bad...even going to the bathroom...:( I need help!

Day 14 – A TV show you’re currently addicted to

Addiction is a funny thing...there is nothing i'm ADDICTED to but my shows are..
1. True Blood...mmmmmmmmmm vampire Eric and werewolf Alcide! it's like a yummy yummy treat every sunday! Well..monday for me cuz i watches it illegally on the interwebz :)

2. Rookie Blue...ok..y'all are sleeping on this show! it is soo good..predictable cop show! LOVE!

Trust me! Watch rookie blue..nbcs on thursday at 10pm eastern..the peacock never lies!

Day 13 – Your favorite musician and why?

Aaaaah!!!....I missed 2 days...*deep breaths!*
What had happened was...:) I didn't have internet!

Ok...Favorite musician...hmm...can it be a band?
I love, love. love Nickelback! First concert I ever went to...Have all their CDs...I love Chad Kroeger's voice! I love Ryan Peake's voice! I love the acoustic version of all their songs...I just love them! LOVE THEM!......LOVE! :)

et viola..there you have it!

Day 12 – A photograph of the town you live in.

Day 11- What's in my makeup bag

Thought I wasn't gon make it huh!! Well too bad....I snuck in under the cut real slick-like!
I gotta tell y'all...I feel very exhilarated...I just watched the final episode of Avatar: the last Airbender for the umpteenth time...while doing my work and I made significant progress! So thanks Aang!

Ok...my makeup bag (for my purse)...I have a picture here:

 

I have:

1. Tissue (cuz I'm a crier)

2. Tide to go pen (cuz you never know when you'll be lined up for inspection with a stain and a drill sergeant screaming at you)

3. Toothpaste (I dunno why I have that..I don't even carry a toothbrush)

4. Into the Wild body spray (cuz you gots to have your smell goods)

5. Coconut and Mango hand lotion (keeps the ash at bay and makes you smell edible -_-)

6. Carmex (SPF15)..(cuz lips are skin too and they need protection from the sun)

7. C.O. Bigelow Mentha Lip Tint (cuz it tastes minty and tingles)

8. M.A.C. Lipglass (cuz I dunno...i rarely use it..it's kinda sticky)

9. E.L.F Matte Lipstick in praline (cuz it has a pretty pink tint)

10. M.A.C. Pressed powder (like MPB says..sometimes as the day progresses my face looks like you can fry plantain on it)

11. Powder Brush

Et viola... zat is all...i'm not a big mussy fussy person!
See y'all tomorrow by God's grace!

Day 10: A photo of your favorite place to eat

Aight...being the foodie that I am...it's going to be favorite placeS!! :D

OMG..before i start can i share a blonde moment with y'all? ....like..you can totally judge me because I side-eyed my damn self all the way home today!
So for the last couple of days, I've noticed that my A/C in my care wasn't really working. And it's been getting progressively bad...not unbearable but it was getting there..and I was all ready to shell out money to get it fixed. Why oh blogsville did i finally check today and the little button you push to turn on the A/C wasn't pushed in?....Like I'm sure it's been weeks since it hasn't been on..just blowing warm air in my face and I was all grinning and bearing it? Wow!

Anyhoo...on to food!
Ok...I picked five of my favorite places to eat and they are mostly in the DMV area..

1. Minato Sushi...they have really good happy hours everyday from like 4-7..you can get sushi for like $3.25 and mango martinis for $4-ish i think...cheap & yummy.


 
2. Sticky Rice...also sushi..only been there once..a bit more pricey than the other place but the rolls are ginormous!...like one of the rolls is called the Godzirra...and for good reason...
ps: i'm a fake sushi eater...haven't progressed to the raw stuff yet..maybe next year :)

3. Akbar Restaurant: Indian food = yummy food...service is slow but I dream about the food for days after!..ooh oohh...and once, i saw this dude from Food Network..you know the smart guy from Ace of Cakes...the skinny little guy with the beard? I was like...cool!!

4. Yo-Cake: I'm a cupcake aficionado...I will try any cupcake when I see it..preferably red velvet. Yo-cake makes IMHO the best red velvet cupcakes I've ever had...like ever. And they sell frozen yogurt too..so you can get your cupcake topped with any flavor of frozen yogurt..mmmmmm....delicious.


5. Sonic Drive-in: Can you say...Medium Strawberry Slush with extra strawberries! Best thing Ever!! Their food is surprisingly good too!




That's all i got for today! Y'all be safe!

Day 9: A photo of the item(s) you last purchased

The last item(s) i purchased....

Book 2 and 3 of the Hunger Games Trilogy (for my uncle..because I am hellbent on everybody and their uncle reading these books!)...He read the 1st one last month and I'm not going to lend him my kindle to read the other two...so I got them for him from Amazon.

PS...if you have not read the Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins...erm..you NEED to!! you absolutely HAVE to..best books I've read all year..I guarantee you will love and finish it in record time..or your money back!! (unless you dont like books like that then..NO REFUNDS PLEASE!)

I also got a Heart Rate Monitor Watch and the little chest strap that goes around your midsection...apparently I've been underestimating my calories burned! Hot Dog! :)

Day 8 – A song to match your mood

All American Rejects
Move Along

Happy Monday!
I love this song because it's upbeat but it also has a really good message..especially I think for Mondays.
I dunno about y'all but Mondays are usually very blah for me...i feel drained and I don't feel like doing anything.
Just.Keep.Moving.One.Step.After.Another...and before you know it...you've done it!

Day 7 – Your dream wedding

Wooohooo..day 7 and going strong!
Actually, I was about to go crash...this weekend flew by damn it!


Aight..dream wedding.
Ideally, my dream wedding would be one that I do absolutely all of the planning and none of the leg work...like literally...say "this is what I want" and somebody else does it and I show up on the wedding day and BAM! perfection....all I want to do is:
1. Buy my dress
2. Taste the Cake
3. Preview the music
4. Taste the food

However, I can give you guys a more realistic version of my dream wedding....
I want the wedding to be a huge party...from the church to the reception to the afterparty.

I want an extended praise and worship session during the church service
I want the reception hall to be beautifully decorated
I want to have a separate room for the younger kids to go hang out..with babysitters and games and movies and bouncy houses and food and little beds for them to nap in when they get tired
I want the reception hall to be in the same hotel as the hotel for guests so people don't have to drive
I want an open bar
I want the cake to be moist and delicious with tasty icing (not that bitter icing or fondant stuff)
I want the food to be perfect
I want the DJ to be on point with the perfect mix of naija and non naija music
I want my shoes to be perfect as well so that I can dance the whole night without feeling any pain
I want waterproof mascara..cuz I'm already an emotional human being...of course I'm going to cry buckets...

Err...that is all
Ooh..ooh...I want Collins Metu to be my photographer and I want my wedding video to be like a movie...

Adieu

Day 6 – A photo of an animal you’d love to keep as a pet

Hi y'all,
Day six and going strong!
Me being the conventional person that I am...the only animal i would love as a pet...and am damn sure going to have...someday is this cute little bundle of cuteness right here!

It's a PUG mixed with a BEAGLE....isn't it just the cuuutteessst thing ever!!! look at it's little squishy face!! :D

I want a medium sized dog cuz i think big dogs are too big and little dogs are too small...so I think a Puggle would be just right!

Day 5 – A photo of yourself two years ago.

Why is this challenge thingie obsessed with pictures? 

Luckily...the picture I posted for the first day was from 2009!....

Nothing to see here tonight folks....

It's friday and my old bones are tired...

You young folks have a good night...

Crazy Stupid Love was awesome! Y'all should go see it!

Day 4 - Your favorite photo of your best friend

Shiznit! I almost missed it...I think technically I did cuz it's 12:04am...but the blog will post it as yesterday..Yippeee...

Soooooo I was thinking about this Day 4 stuff for a long time...and I was going to go into the whole spiel about  how I don't have best friends because it puts too much pressure on people to fulfill this "all in all" idea and when they fall short..which they will because we are human..then everybody gets hurt.
I dont have many friends...and I only have a handful of close friends.

In retrospect,I guess I had two really close best-ish friends...what happened? Dunno...life I guess..ppl change and move away and get married and friendships evolve...

The good thing about a true friend is that even if you don't see or talk to them for a while...at least in my case...I think about them everyday and I always send good thoughts their way and pray for them. And if they ever needed me...I'd be there in a heartbeat..in whatever capacity I can...and I hope they know that.

I'm not posting anyone's pictures cuz um...I dont wanna put them all out there...this blog did start off as "anonymous-y" :p

But here are pictures that remind me of my "besties"

Gnite Folks!

Day 3 – Your idea of the perfect first date

Let's do this!

My idea of the perfect first date....this is hard because I don't want it to come off as cliche..but I don't think the 1st date should involve too much...it's nerve-wracking enough to go out with someone you are just getting to know, keeping in mind that you are possibly open to being in a serious relationship with the person.


Me I kuku don't like all the fancy smancy wine and dine stuff. But I would love on a first date to do something I've never done before..not only does experiencing something new together create a bond, it also makes you less nervous i think.

Ok...perfect 1st date I've been on....

A couple of days before the date...he sent me a dozen red roses...that was a nice touch and I was all nervous and excited!

Rode the train into Manhattan to see The Lion King on Broadway which was amazing!

Next,we went to this like park (not central park) ..i forget the name of the area and i'm too lazy to look it up..but it was a short walk away from the show...*you know that place in something borrowed where Rachel and Ethan meet for lunch?(if they really shot the movie in New York)..yeah that place*...and we just talked and people watched for a couple of hours.

Then, we had dinner...as much as i love food...i don't even remember where or what...but there was no pressure...no nervousness..it was like catching up with an old friend.
Rode the train back..and talked some more

And then we both went our separate ways..never saw each other again..:D

I was thinking of what I would do to plan a perfect 1st date..and I just plain blanked...mehn...dudes y'all have it hard oh...any ideas?

Day 2 – A photo of something you ate today

Turkey bacon biscuit and almond milk

Day 2 y'all...i'll keep it short and sweet...I downloaded this iCookbook App on my phone and it had this super easy recipe for turkey bacon biscuits for breakfast. So I made a bunch on Sunday and kept it in the fridge.

In the morning, I heat it up in the microwave for 19seconds... Add a glass of vanilla almond milk and I'm good to go! :)

Here's the recipe in case anyone is interested. I use Grands Honey Butter Biscuits because they are amazing!...and low fat cream cheese...yum!

Day 1: 30 Day Challenge

A photo of myself...et viola

Throwback to 2009! I miss braids!

And...a description of how my day was...


I woke up at 6:30...and snoozed for an hour! Lol...that's what i get for sleeping late.

Got out of bed at 7:30

Bathroom

Weighed myself...pleasantly surprised...but I think my scale is a liar..we like lies :)

Drank a glass of water

Took a shower

Got dressed

Packed my bags..and my lunch (curry chicken salad sandwich, carrots, a clementine and chocolate pudding)

Went to Food Lion to find this cereal that allegedly has 14g of fiber and no sugar and no sodium...I think it's like a unicorn..cuz clearly it DOES not exist! Hmpfff!

Bought gas at Exxon: $12.01..damn it!..i hate when it's not a complete number! I almost went up to $13, but I buy gas on thursdays..from Shell when it's $0.05 off and i can use my card to get an extra $0.10 off...I'm trying to stick it to the man..one gallon at a time!

Got to work at 10am..put my 10%APS on ice to thaw...

Went to pick up some compounds from this dude..at 11am, and I was on time too! Trying not to perpetrate the whole CPT thing and the dude shows up freaking 30minutes late...smh!! I was going to get mad but he was doing me a favor so...whatever!

Set up my experiment...messed up and loaded the wrong samples...ARRGGHH!!!...but it was actually a blessing in disguise cuz it didnt work and I didnt waste too much of my samples

Had lunch with my lab buddy

Finished up my experiment

Checked emails..went to INO, YBF and Ideeli...bought nothing! Yay me! :D

Facebook stalked

Had a discussion with lab folk about how most hero/villan movies are similar (it all started with someone comparing Harry Potter to Star Wars and the know-it-all saying that most movies/books have the same plot but not being able to give anymore examples *sideeye*..there's a back story but like just shut up! SHUT UP..you dont have to contribute to every conversation!! SHUT THE HELL UP!) :)..wooosah y'all!

Went to a 6pm spinning class...fun fun!

Talked myself into letting someone teach me how to swim (I know y'all! I know..it's my secret shame! I figure if I talk about it enough then I really have to do it!)

Walked to the shuttle with my lab buddy, dropped her off...drove home.

Stopped by a gazillion stores (ok 2..and one was closed) to find the fabled cereal! Clearly, it does not exist!..except on Amazon.

Took a shower

Had dinner...Coconut Curry Beef with white rice....yum-o! I slow cooked it myself yesterday (Top chef up in this piece :)..)

Had left over chocolate cake! mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm chocolate!

Watched the Bachelorette finale..(ugh! that Ashley)/Master Chef (ugh! that Chris)

Watched True Blood (meh..i like last week's episode better Alan Ball...you messed up the Sookie and Eric hookup...boooooo!)

Messed around on the internet and stumbled upon the 30 day blog challenge

Wrote my Day 1 blog! :)

In summary, my day was tiring and long and it feels like Friday...but I'm bout to go to bed...and hope tomorrow goes much more smoothly!

Gnite y'all!

Smiley Face

Mehn...this year surely flew by! I cant believe I haven't been here in a while....I really have no excuse...just been busy with life i guess. When things get overwhelming I tend to cut out a lot of things that I think i can live without...but...I'm trying to be good..I found this 30 day blogging challenge on Scandalous Beauty...And I'm going to try it..Eeek...i have only 44 minutes before day one is over!!!

Post-quarter life crisis?

*Rant alert!*

On the eve of the beginning of my 28th year on this earth, I was quietly reflecting the meaning of life....well not really.
Ok..so..I'm sitting here, reading a review paper for a tutorial session on mathematical modeling and apoptosis (yeah..i rolled my eyes too) and it starts off really heavy and is difficult to understand, but as I continue reading, it gets easier and almost enjoyable.

In 27 years, I've learned about myself that I enjoy learning especially about science...and I enjoy thinking about it and sometimes obsessing about it. It's like a game...trying to figure out how things work...in order to figure out how to fix it when it doesn't work as it should.

But...it's as frustrating as it is enjoyable because I feel like the more I learn, they more I realize how much more I have to learn and the prospect of being able to learn enough is really daunting.
So I'm reading the paper and I'm thinking about my particular area of interest and how it relates to apoptosis and I'm thinking about my project and I'm slowly getting frustrated and feeling like if i deviate from what I think is my focus, I'll get too distracted and I'll never be done with school...

And then I remember being at the airport yesterday watching war veterans returning from Afghanistan...most of them younger than me...some older. And I'm thinking about those that don't get to make it back....and their families. And how regardless of the reasons behind their joining the military...the only reasons why there is a war and why the need to be over there in the first place is through no direct fault of theirs.

They're out there fighting a war for people like our senators and representatives who feel it's their right to sit in their houses that we pay for and dictate what a woman does with her body.. whether or not I can own a house..whether or not people who work for a living can afford to save money to retire..whether or not people who lost their job due to the economic downturn that was more than likely helped by this parasitic war get to have health insurance...whether or not you have to wait until you are 70.5 to withdraw money from your 401k...those people.

They're out there fighting those people who clearly...CLEARLY are reincarnations of whatever god they believe in and perfect and pure and devoid of any wrongdoings get to decide who is immoral and who deserves to live and die...who stone little girls...who bury little girls alive...who feel like 30 years of dictatorship is too little...who are so blinded by the pursuit of absolute power that they do not see how truly powerless they are....

And when they come home, they don't get to sleep peacefully because they bring back visions of horror as souvenirs

So now I'm feeling like a whiny little crybaby and hating myself for thinking that anything I'm battling does not even begin to compare to what these soldiers and their families face (and let's not even get me started on Africa..that's its own can of worms).

And I'm feeling ashamed because being inundated with news about the war and the world has left me apathetic even to what's going on right outside my door....so i shut it all out and try and focus on one thing for now...but I can't.

So I tell myself that the only way to make a difference in the world is to start with the world I face everyday..but that seems so small and insignificant compared to what is going on out there. Still I smile and I listen and I try to be present in the moment.

This works 99% of the time...my mind is occupied with thoughts and plans and goals and projects that keep me busy...but all it takes is that 1% when I get so overwhelmed with what's going on 99% of the time that I'm forced to take a step back and question the relevance of 99% of my time.

And that leaves me here...discouraged and disillusioned, overwhelmed by problems that appear insurmountable. Problems that make me feel like..."if I could only fix this...everything else will fall into place"...but where to start?

1% definitely puts things in perspective..like who the bloody hell cares if your experiments work?or if you have a good day?or if you have something planned for your birthday?

But what comes after the 1%? and before the 99% kicks in again? sometimes it's numbness...sometimes it's the strong belief the there is something out there bigger than us...that has a grand design of how things should be and makes me believe that my existence is indeed relevant and if i do everything right will amount to something useful...but it's never both...

And today...I am numb 

Marching on to April

HoHemGeee y'all...
@ that girl they call MPB...it's not your fault o! Get that big ol' log out of your eye cuz you ain't blogged neither *side eye*

Sho been a while innit? I tire sef with the excuses..I suck..I accept it and I will go put myself in a corner.

ooooh oooh!...Ok..yes i am obsessed with my nephews (#1 more than #2 for now but give me time)
#1 is a total clown! He's also 2 going on like 16!
Apparently, the other day he wanted some milk and his dad was making it for him. So he was following his dad around the kitchen saying "that's not even mine". His dad ignored him until he went to hand him the bottle of milk only to realize he had used a baby bottle instead of his regular sippy cup.
His mom now says "You should have listened to your son"
Why did my nephew now say "Yea..I'm a genius!"?

I died! That boy is just too much!

What's new you say?
Well...i finished the 5K program (bring it killer) and I was gonna start the 10K program but mehn...no motivation..my music sucks, i decided i dont like running on the treadmill that much...so i'm just gonna stick to the classes and work on incorporating weight training into my exercise routine.


I woke up the other day realizing that i'm getting old! Almost 30 y'all...It's time to take my world domination plans to the next level...watch this space!

 For my birthday, I'm going to see Cirque! finally..I hope it's not wack. You know what else was not wack? Rango...yes..Rango..I laughed, I almost cried..I loved it! It was a lil slow in some parts but all in all...not bad.

My April goals are to take care of all my health stuff and I made my appointments so yay me!

Oh..I updated MoK8....finally...not really feeling the part II (lacking inspiration) but I promise the part III will be naice...I think..

It's almost April y'all...the best month EVER! When all the best ppl are born :)
I hope everyone has a wonderful April! I know I will!

Dos!

New Year...New You and all that junk!

So...last year, I didn't make any resolutions cuz i was like "resolutions? them thangs don't work!"
But this year...I was like well last year I made unspoken resolutions and didn't accomplish them...well...maybe a couple...
So this year...I decided to try again and thought..maybe it would work better if I do:
1. Not try to accomplish all of them at once (1/month - 40 days)

2. Not beat myself up about it if i didn't accomplish them

I just wanted to recap for meself

January

    - Resolution: Start exercising
    - Success?: Yay
    - Background: I actually love working out...I do..but I also love eating, and being sedentary and watching TV..and left to my own devices..devises?...I'd rather eat in bed while watching TV. The good thing is when I'm in the gym, I'm focused. The perks of being a student is free gym membership.
Anyway, my school gym has pretty good classes and I'm usually in the gym about 5-6 days a week (good week) and 3 days (bad week)..this is what I do..

Monday: Kickboxing...the crazy chick that runs this class..ahem..forgets often that we are human beings and that no one likes to do 100 moves on a step followed by 72 jumping jacks followed by 20 burpees followed by mountain climbers...AS A WARM UP!!..while getting screamed at! The class should be called boot camp. (think i get a mini panic attack right before each class...but that stuff works men! And i find myself showing up week after week.)
ASIDE: whoever invented burpees must have been a prison inmate because the only way I'll ever complete 20 burpees..EVER..is if someone threatens to shank me! Just saying..those things are NO BUENO!!!

Wednesday: Cardio Jam is pretty much just step aerobics with booty shaking intervals so naturally..i love it

Thursday: Ab Attack and Kickboxing....a tamer version of Monday's class but still sweat inducing and more fun.

So that's 3 days...on Tuesday, Friday and Saturday or Sunday...I run.
OK..I am shame that when i first started in January..I would run/walk for 20 minutes and I don't think i  could run for 5 minutes straight but i was doing the Couch25K program so technically...I may or may not have been able to run more than 5 minutes that first week but i was bound by the program..and since I didn't try to see if i could..the world will never know.
The moral of the story is that I am 8 weeks in and I can run for 28 minutes..NO STOPPING!! Woohoo...
It's not no 9mph..it's more like 5-5.5mph but I think I'm building up endurance...now I can get chased by the killer and as long as he agrees to a slow jog and not an all out adrenaline driven chase...i think i can outrun him (unless he's on week 9 of the program where you have to run 30 minutes...hmmmm...damn it!)

Anyhoo...the C25K is a 9 week program..so I'll be done next week by God's grace... and I dont see myself giving up this gymming thing by choice...so I think i can confidently say that I have accomplished that resolution! Yay Me!

   - Results: well...i haven't gained weight..i think i may have lost about 4lbs and some inches...since January 1st, but I also am not very good about the whole eating thing..yet. That's my April resolution. But i think my clothes fit me better...I'm seeing some pretty cool muscle definition all over the place so nice nice overall..

   - Path forward: apparently, there's a Bridge to 10K (6miles) program as well so  I'm going to do that after I'm done with the C25K...they both have free apps on Droid in case anyone is interested (C25K and Bridgeto10K) i think iPhone folks gorra pay...teehee suckers!!

The thing is...I don't think i like running (yet)..it really depends on my mood that day and my music. But I show up and I do it and when I'm done..i feel like Wonder Woman :) My goal is to get up to running 5 miles a day..like Beyonce because let's face it...she's the supreme ruler of all things young,fabulous and black
(side eye that one with her increasingly blonde look lately)!

UGGH! i swear...this post was not supposed to be this long!
I'll recap February another day and get into March and April as well...

Y'all stay warm..and safe..and good and junk!

ASIDE: does anyone else sometimes mistakenly type www.google.cm and end up at Cameroon's google? and wonder..why the hell does Nigeria not have a www.google.ng?..jus me?..sigh! We hail thee o!... 

Wouldn't it be absolutely hilarious if Nigerians revolted like the Egyptians or Libyans?...seeing as we apparently have a democracy...HILAR!!!...sorry y'all i have issues...my tyrantous (yes that's a word...i just played it on wordfeud..26 points) streak is coming out a bit these days...another day another post!!

As i was saying sha...
Deuces!

The best part of me....

..I've been trying to think of 7 things about me that weren't cliche or boring...cuz i got tagged by Taynement...for 3 weeks now..maybe less...

1. I love cop shows...something about the bad guy always getting their just desserts is so gratifying.
- Law and Order: SVU (not the original or the faux C.I or L.A or whatever else). Just me, Benson and Stabler fighting bad guys..kicking ass and taking names..and not smiling.
- Rookie Blue: Come back Rookie Blue..y'all should watch it..there's a nigerian chick on it...i feel like i'm the only one that watches it and i dont want it to get canceled.
- Southland: Ok...I have been in love with Ben McKenzie since the O.C, and looove Regina King in it...the whole cast chemistry is ridiculous and the stories make me cry. @RepOne..PLEASE tell me you're on Southland..pleeeesee!!

2. Speaking of which...I love a good cry....a good cry until you cant cry anymore and you go to sleep. I usually have one once a month..sheesh PMS is real y'all! But I wake up the next morning and all is right with the world.

3. When I was younger and wasn't allowed to have life experiences..I'm sure I made up a full life of love and hurt and pain in my head and I lived it through music. And now that i'm old and have had life experiences..it still surfaces some times...scary!

4. Honestly...I really do think i can sing! I know..my friends have told me..and I wont be one of those friendless fools that come on American Idol thinking they can sing when the whole world knows they cant. Guess I'll stick to the shower and my car.

5. My idea of a perfect weekend seems to have evolved to waking up at 7am to watch reruns of Law and Order...then breakfast, then a nap, then lazing about....then getting good bad food like indian and a movie and doing more lazing about.

6. I like spending time with myself....most times more than hanging out with people..

7. For some reason..I'm pretty good at remembering random trivia crap... One day it will pay off...I hope.



That's all...c'est fini..ze end..beautiful people..stay warm and stuff...we go dey jam!
