I want it all...

About Me

So, I'm 26. Twenty-six. Four years from 30. The last time Four years meant something to me was when I was a freshman in college. Look how fast those years went by... Before I know it, I'll be 30 and I want to have something to show for it. I'm just ready for something different. I want something new. Something fresh. Something...ME!

"I'm good at being uncomfortable, so I can't stop changing all the time." -Fiona Apple One of the greatest challenges of my life is learning to accept the things I can't control and gaining the courage to change what I can. I try to take each day for what it is, but I get impatient- wondering if in a year or two I will truly be a practicing attorney??? Did the Lord design a man just for me??? What is my purpose??? Who? What? When? Where? Why? How? S/Medium or Large (lol)??? I don't know...2008 is promising to be a good year. No holding back. Its All About Me!!!

The Power of Expectation

Before today, I believed that I was pretty self-aware. That's why God gives us friends- to point out the things we can't see. So after some purposeful introspection and careful reading of my blogs,I h...

When Did Black Girls Go Out of Style?

I think I missed the memo. I must have been absent from consciousness the day brothers sent out the message that Black women were no longer the singular object of their affections. I know, I know I wa...
