Life changing.... Maybe.

2012-01-07T13:52:00.002-05:00

This is the year for infinite possibilities. Ok, so far, this morning I have decided on a few things. Number one. I am participating in Gold's Gym 12 week transformation challenge. i plan to work out as much as I can without burning myself out. I am committing to a lifestyle change. I also have decided to join a running club by the end of the year. I plan on running/walking a 5k or 10k by the

La-di-da who rock the party.. :)

2012-01-06T22:52:00.001-05:00

Not many people know that I can sing. I usually tell people I can't. I think I will start a youtube channel. In the beginning I will be private and when I feel more comfortable I will open it up. The first songs I want to sing are "love on top" by beyonce, "ain't no way" amber riley's version, "slow motion"by karina parisan and "beautiful" or "emotional rollercoaster" by vivian green.

2011-11-21T11:27:00.001-05:00

I just took put some yarn braids and my hair had gotten noticeably thinner. I don't understand why. very little hair came out when I took them out. I don't like this

Ugh... Milk? Its not for me

2011-11-06T10:05:00.001-05:00

One thing my friends and I have in common is a majority of us don't like milk. My problem until recently was I wasnt getting my daily dose of dairy. the only thing I ate with milk was my eggs and I put publix organic 2% milk in that. When I started trying to change my diet, I was trying things that I normally wouldnt but I knew was healthy. So I personally like silk pure almond milk. Keep in

Naked smoothies

2011-11-06T09:56:00.001-05:00

Can I just say these drinks are so good. I love green machine, red machine. I don't know the real names lil but they are soo good. I have not tried the protein drink they have cause they usually don't taste good to me. But this right here... This right here. Love and blessings.

My new favorite protective style..

2011-11-01T17:34:00.001-04:00

2011-09-15T12:01:00.003-04:00

About a month ago, my half sister, Rickita Smalls, was murdered in my hometown of Norwalk, CT. Though I never met her physically, when we talked, we knew we were related. From our attitude, our style, the way we think, just everything. I want answers to what happened and though I know that mostly likely that will not happen, I still want them. I love her just as I love my other half sisters and

It's really weird, I thought my hair was nappy. Like the really kinky. This week, rep people have said I have good curly hair. Not from the coils but naturally. So im confused what its considered kinky? P.s. My hair is now

This is the first time in a long time that I have actually been excited about my life.. There's nothing in particular going on. I just think my outlook on life is not jumbled by the crap going on in my life. No matter how much people piss me off (which is often), i know that today is the first day of the rest of life. I know that change happens, not by saying it, but by acting on it. I am ready

For the last few days, I have been thinking about so many things.. First, from Thursday to Sunday, I actually got out of my comfort zone and had fun. I went to Halloween Horror Night in Orlando.
