At the mall yesterday and saw something very interesting, or not. Men's jeans with the words, "Rock this way" on the back. Now, I'm all for the shout-out to the old school but, not on a man's butt. Am I wrong? I am a firm believer in making a statement I just don't think that statement was right.
Then you have the women's jeans with rhinestone booties. First of all, no 50 year old woman should have a sparkling booty. The club? Maybe. Not to your child's parent-teacher conference sweety. Maybe the logo of the jeans, like something subtle, not something that makes your butt stand out from the rest of the outfit.
I don't like sweat pants with ANY type of writing on the butt. Correction, I don't like SOME of the people that wear sweat pants with writing on the butt. Again, there is an age when this needs to stop. I'll let that stay in the hands of the consumer BUT, this is NOT exceptable AT ALL if they read:
Bootilicious
Hot Stuff
Delicious
Cutie
...you get the idea.
I would personally like to do away with all BOOTY WRITINGS.

Dressing for fun
Yesterday was like one of my few days off. And instead of laying around the house, sleeping and watching reruns of Golden Girls, I decided to get dressed and go out. The first destination was breakfast and wholesale stores with my dad. So, I went with my "undercover look". When I get dressed, I like to think paparazzi is some place close...haha (my imagination). So anyways, Scarf and shades are from PacSun...eyeliner and mascara Mac...


And at LAST MINUTE, my mom called me to say my cousin's surprise birthday party was that night. I was already undress from my venture with my dad, so I had to slip into something. I opted for the "rebel" look. Cardigan from PacSun...shirt from Hot Topic...eyeliner and mascara by Mac...jeans from Old Navy...sneakers by DC...

Racism in 2009??
OK, seriously??? I work for a Fortune 500 company. Love my job and I am NOT complaining....buuut...the people I have to deal with, mostly on a daily basis can be outrageous. When people come I stand, smile and greet them, not only because it's a part of my job, but also because I feel that is the right way to someone know, "Hey, I'm here and I can help you". Some people speak and go to someone else (which is fine), some people come right over and some people act like I am completely transparent and silent. Like WT-eff??? I work with a Caucasian woman (who is no where near racist) and if they see her there, if she's busy or not, they will go to her (after ignoring me). No problem there because there is always something to do...but, sometimes she HAS to tell them to come to me. Which I also don't mind because she's been there WAY longer than me and they are more familiar with her. But, the other day, this guy went as far as telling me he doesn't trust "my kind" with his money. KEWL DUDE!!! haha...And this isn't just targeted at White people (whom I DO NOT have ANY discrepancies with). Lawd knows I would be wrong to say that this is the only place this NASTY bug exists. In our urban communities, there is more of a "melting pot" kind of setting, and people still dislike each other because of ethnicity. Guys, it's 2009!!! How can we build a better America with this kind of hate? How can we HONESTLY say America is the land of opportunity, when we all share this same handicap? The ignorance people possess, in this time and day, is sad. I can't be mad at them. That's the way of life they know. But why? Why teach your children to hate someone for something they have no control over? I didn't pick the color of my skin and, given the chance, I wouldn't change it. Who's place it to belittle someone or make them feel uncomfortable in the skin they are in. Studies show we are 99.9% identical. MEANING we are ALL HUMAN. We, mostly, see, smell, hear, feel, taste, reproduce and effectively communicate the same.
Get a grip people. ALL people. At the end of the day, we are ALL here to stay!!!
Final thought: How can we love God, whom which we cannot see, but hate our brothers and sisters whom we see daily?

Simple As That
Mr. Kid Cudi a.k.a Mr. Solo Dolo's debut album, "Man on the Moon" dropped September 15, 2009...before we get into his sales, let's discuss Mr. Cudi, not only is he a hawtie, but his creativity is the TRUTH. He is very different from the mainstream right now. He's apart on Kanye's entourage and he even helped co-write "808's and Heartbreaks" by Kanye West.
Mr. Solo Dolo, sold 104,294 in his first week!!! Topping the ihiphop.com's list topping fellow newcomer Drake. My personal fav on the album would have to be "Simple As That". Gotta say, I expected this!!!! He's the truth. Good going Cudi, we're on your side...

The Hard Times of a 12-year-old

So, my nephew, who is the 12-years-old, called me today, (Now before I get into this, just know that I lalaLOVE, cherish and adore my nephews andw ill do ANYTHING in my power to protect them from harm) in tears. He tells me that his mom (my sister) and his brother (who is 15) were picking on him today. Keep in mind, this isn't the typical "mom". She's friggn psycho.
So anyways, he's upset and crying because he's so mad a frustrated. His brother tackled him, on my sister's orders, and took his candy that he just bought from the store. So, the only way I know how to pacify ANYONE is by writing. Short story, shorter, I told him to pick 4 topics and write a "rock song". I also have to do this, since we're on the same page...so here it goes...silly rhyming!!!
Tattoos
