YEAH I AM NOW 21!!! WOW, that is amazing. Well, let me explain to you all my birthday… It was the best day ever… Do you remember I told you that I threw myself my own 21st birthday bash…
I got up at around 8:30am to go get my hair done at 9:30am at my Aunts shop. I was in the beauty salon for 4 hours. Oh my gosh, that was the longest process ever… I was so ready to get out of there… Once I got out the shop I went home to paint my nails and my toes. For some reason I lost track of time and when I looked at my clock it was 4:15pm and I had to be at my sister-in-laws house by 4:30pm. Oh I am not sure if I told you but she made my outfit. It was so pretty… By the time I got there I rushed to put my clothes on and I was out the door by 5:00pm. I was so shocked but my nephew wanted to ride with me to the party, when we got to my car he opened the car door for me and helped me in the car… And he is only 10 years old. He is well mannered… I love him so much… Well, my aunt that was over the party wanted to me to get there by 5:15pm so I could greet people at the door as they came in… Everyone was giving me compliments all night. I told my aunt that I did not want a Grand Entrance because I do not like all that attention. But she did not care what I thought and had me walk in as everyone was clapping for me. It was a good feeling to see how many people were there… And they all were people that love me… I was so excited… It was around 100 people there… My brother emceed for me and was cracking everyone up. He is a jokester!!! My sister stated the program and sang my favorite song, “May the Name.” It was awesome. Then my dad prayed for the food. We ate good… It was Lasagna, Chicken Wings, Green Beans and Salad. It was so good; we had it catered from a guy name Brian… The food was spectacular. Then my friend Tierra danced with her sisters, My friend Lewis rapped while his brother danced, and my boyfriend did a wonderful, heartfelt poem. Before he went up to do his poem my brother introduced him as Kirk Franklin. It was hilarious; see my boyfriend is tiny and light skin like Kirk… Then I had to give my talk of all the people I thank… But oh my goodness I was so nervous and I do not even remember what he said. People said some words of encouragement the touched me. My boyfriends group did a song and then my brother sang. I had such a wonderful time… I am so glad that the party is over but I had an excellent time, and it seemed as if everyone enjoyed themselves… Afterwards I was trying to figure out what to do because I knew I could not go home so me and all my friends just hung out and clowned all night… WOW, I am legal… That means absolutely nothing only that I have more responsibilities… AWW MAN!!! Well, I hope you all enjoyed reading about my special day and please STUDY STUDY STUDY this week… Have a blessed one…
Hello EVERYONE!!! I hope all is well… Did you all enjoy your weekend? My weekend was a chill weekend. You know everybody needs at least one chill weekend out the month that you sit around in your bummy clothes, watch TV and just relax. This whole weekend was not planned to be a chill weekend but it was. I think I was so chill because this weekend is going to be so busy… I have to work on Friday and then I have some last minute things to do for the party. On Saturday I am getting my hair done, going to the License place to get my License redone, going to the Title place and then get ready for my party… It starts at 5:30pm… I am so excited. I have all my close friends and family doing something for me. My sister and brother are singing. My boyfriend is doing a poem for me, and his group is singing. My friend Lewis and Harvey are rapping and my friend Tierra is dancing. It is going to be an awesome time not lifting my name up but lifting God’s name up… I can not wait. I am sure I will have a whole lot to write about on Monday…
Can you believe we only have 2 weeks of school left? OH MY GOODNESS!!! THIS IS REALLY BLOWING MY MIND!!!! Well, I guess I need to start studying for finals… Please do not cram because that does nothing but stress you out… Have a wonderful week and I will talk to you soon…
Hello Everyone, I hope you all are enjoying this beautiful weather because I know I am… I just want this blog to be quotes and poems that are inspiring to me that I wanted to share with you all…
In the Moment of Worship
In that moment she finds her hope
Swaying back and forth in peace
She is one, one of many
Singing songs in sync
Swaying back and forth in peace
Crying to one who she believes
Singing songs all in sync
She dances with joy
Crying to one who she believes
Lift her hands and tries to reach
She dances with joy
Her eyes are close so she can see
Lift her hand and tries to reach
She is one, one of many
Showered in love her eyes silently leak
In that moment she finds her hope

I Asked God...
I asked for strength and God gave me difficulties to make me strong
I asked for wisdom and God gave me problems to solve
I asked for prosperity and God gave me brawn and brain to work
I asked for courage and God gave me dangers to overcome
I asked for patience God placed me in situations where I was forced to wait
I asked for love and God gave me troubled people to help
I asked for favors and God gave me opportunities
I received nothing I wanted I received everything I needed
My Prayer Has Been Answered.

The poems and the quotes had me at a state of WOW… I am not sure if you have ever felt like that…. These poems and quotes made me think and all that could come out of me mouth was wow… I guess that is because I was speechless… Well, I hope these poems touched you like they have touched me… Have a good week and let’s try this week moving forward not backward. Do something that you have not done before that will give you the opportunity to grow…
Have you ever been in a situation and feel that there is no way out? Or have you ever wanted something so bad and when you finally get it, it is either not what you expected or it is too much for you… Well, I am now in a situation that I have wanted for a couple of months; but how things were looking I thought I was never going to get it. I was living in a fantasy world and oh was that fantasy wonderful… A lot of the time young ladies want something so bad that they dream about it, think about it, and even move on it prematurely. I have what I wanted but now I am not sure how to handle everything. This is so natural and it feels great. You tell me, how should I handle everything? I am enjoying the conversation, the “wining and dining,” and most of all I am enjoying the fact that I am in a relationship with someone that I know some much about already… I went through some time by myself low key enjoying my singleness, I went through some time of trying to find myself, and I even tried the whole idea of casually dating, and I hated that. I don’t care what no one says your feelings still get involved. Because let that guy or girl you are casually dating, casually date someone else and you just so happen to see them out holding hands or even possibly holding each other, how would you react? Would you be mad, jealous, or okay? Hard question isn’t it? You should ask yourself those questions every time you catch yourself in this situation…
I am content right now. Well, actually I am sort of nervous because I am now in a relationship with my best friend. We have been close and quite frankly getting closer every day since September. It has defiantly been an emotional rollercoaster that was unstable and unhealthy. We are in ministry together, we praise God together, we love each other and we both want this to work out. It is somewhat scary because I often think of the negative instead of the positive. But I think about what would happen if we do not work out and how that would affect everything. We share so many things with each other. We are both involved in ministry together; his group and cell group, we both share the same friends and it is now to the point that some of my family members and him are close. But I try not to worry about it because I know God will work it all out for the best. I also know that if it doesn’t work we will still be cordial to each other, still be friends and even love each other enough that if we end up with other people we will be able to be happy for each other. I do not know what God has in store for me and I am excited to see who I get married to. Okay that’s enough… God will reveal that to me when I am ready for it… Have a good week and thanks for reading my blog.
