Almost A Month Later...

Can't believe its been a month since I last updated. February has certainly been one stressful month. I was evicted from my apartment earlier in the month, and some of my things were stolen in the process including my macbook. I was able to get my apartment back but not my laptop =(. I also had to deal with a lot of family drama. But all is well now. I finally cut my hair, I will post pics soon. Now I am just debating whether or not I want to relax my hair again. How have you guys been? I see I have a lot of catching up to do!

Beautiful Mistake. It Is What It Is.

Love this song by Keri. It speaks on exactly how I'm feeling right now about a certain someone. It's always good when you find a song you can truly relate to.

Suicide and 30 Facts.

Day 5: A time you thought about ending your own life.

I have actually considered suicide once when I was going through the worst mental and emotional state last year. But it wasn't on a serious level because that thought quickly went out my head. I value my life way too much for that. I definitely think it's a selfish act. I can not even imagine the pain and hurt I could cause to those that love me if I ever went through with it. I wouldn't want them to deal with my death. I try to remind myself that there is someone out here that has it way worse than I do. There was a picture I posted earlier when I first started this blog. A picture of a little boy hungry, crawling and  trying to find food with a vulture sitting near waiting for his death. The picture is really heartbreaking but I look at it everytime I'm going through. It reminds me how bless I am and have no reason to complain.

Early Morning Thoughts.

I'm the type of person to only see the good in people no matter what the person has done. I have always been that way. Seems like a good trait right? Well I'm not so sure. I am not a difficult person to deal with at all and I don't ask for much. I'm forgiving. I am not selfish. So why does some people constantly take what I give them and just walk all over me? I never get any appreciation which is fine but the blatant disrespect hurts. Every time i try to set my foot down and be more assertive (which I have no problem doing) they look at me like I'm the one out of line. I find it very hard to trust people now and even found myself to be a little bitter because of it. It also just seems to me that people set expectations for me that only suits them. Woke up with this on my mind. I think its time to cut a lot people off. smh.

The State of My Hair

Last week, I went in for a relaxer after stretching for 4 months. I went home afterwards to find the hair in the middle and back of my head had completely broken off. All gone. I broke down and cried. I cried all day. I didn't attend any of my classes. I almost didn't go to work. I dropped my flat iron and it broke. So for the past few days I've been walking around looking like WHO-SHOT-JOHNNY-AND-FORGOT-TO-KILL-HIM. I am debating whether or not to cut the rest of my hair off or rock a wig/weave until my hair grows back. I think its time for a new look anyway. I really want to cut my hair in a short style but I am so scared. I always had long hair and I really don't know how a short cut would look on me. I really like the cut Meagan Good been sporting lately. If I do cut my hair I think this is the style I'll get:


Any of you guys experienced hair breakage? What did you do to nourish your hair back to health?

Drugs, Alcohol and Religion.

Day 3: Drugs and Alcohol
Drug free is the way to be. I don't see anything wrong with smoking a lil mary jane every now and then, I try not to smoke often though because I would hate to have black lips lol.  I never had the desire to experiment with any other drugs. I've seen first hand what drugs like heroin and cocaine can do to a person and it's really scary. As far as alcohol goes, I don't drink that much. Every now and then I'll go to happy hour. I try to drink in moderation.


Day 4: Religion
My favorite verse: John 3:16.
