HALLOWEENIE

NO DAY BUT TODAY

I'm just now getting over the soreness that had overcome my body after

participating in THE longest journey on foot....aka the L.A. Aids Walk.

It was a no-brainer to support such a powerful movement with the crew:

Chelsea, Keek, Bree, Sulem, and Krystlasia

We walked a good 2 miles to get there--after taking the metro and the bus--,

walked 6 miles amongst more than 30,000 people,

then walked 2 more just to get to the car. lol

And, it was raining.

But all in all, it was for a good cause and I had blast with my girls.

Plus, we rewarded ourselves by indulging a hearty meal from

Roscoe's afterwards. ;]

Team Bullets&Bows!!!

BIRDS OF A FEATHER

The discovery of genuine friends is a special rarity that comes with life.

Though my circle is not the biggest,

I'd rather have a few good friends than tons of...

the flakey ones,

the backstabbing ones,

the always-borrowing-your-clothes-and-never-giving-em-back ones,

the boyfriend stealers,

the tell-your-secrets-to-the-world-and-might-as-well-start-a-blog-or-

write-a-book-about-what-everyone-doesn't-know-about-you ones,

the swagger jackers,

the liars,

the thieves,

the always-want-what-you-have-yet-are-unwilling-to-go-out-

and-do-something-for-themselves ones,

the bad advice givers,

the snobs,

the always-crying-broke-when-you-ask-to-borrow-a-few-dollars-

even-though-you-always-help-them-when-they-need-it ones,

and the

the floozies.

I'm so thankful that God has plucked out all of the weeds in my life and has sewn seeds that are blossoming into amazing friendships with beautiful people.

I love my posse,

my ride-or-die-

always-stick-by-my-side peeps.

I adore them all because they are each very different yet are all extremely talented,

intelligent, and bring something new to my life in their own little ways.

One of these fab friends of mine is Chelsea, better known as Danni Rouge.

Though I had an obsession with redheads far before we met,

she's the dopest one I know. lol

She's the designer behind the accessory line Bullets&Bows,

and is an uber-talented singer and songwriter.

She recently did a vid covering Bruno Mars' song "Grenade,"

which I never heard prior to hearing her sing it and now I love it! lol

Enjoy!! :)

WHIP IT REAL GOOD

Soooo I love Willow Smith. lol

I didn't really understand what all of the hype was about surrounding her,

but after watching her highly-anticipated vid for her single "Whip My Hair,"

I've officially hopped aboard the Willow train lol

Not only is her swagger out of this world

--especially considering the fact that she's 9 years old--

but she's just so friggin' cute! lol

The entire time I was watching the video, I kept getting flashbacks of Jada and her dookeybraids in her Menace to Society days.

I'm so thrilled to see such a positive role model for young black girls.

Finally the days of looking up to rump-shakin' video vixens and risqué female entertainers

are OVER!

Now, black girls have someone that they can actually relate

to that promotes embracing and celebrating your individuality.

I really hope that Willow doesn't become a product of the industry like Miley or Britney lol

So I'll stand in her corner until she shows otherwise.

Aaah! This little girl is just too dope for words!
