so this whole not working out has been blowing mines. I can't go to my university's gym, cuz well I graduated! lol. & i can't get a gym membership cuz well, i have no money! <-- that's blowing mines too lol.

since i got back from my cruise there have been failed attempts to go walking again, but that can't be life anymore. I think ima go walking/running tomorrow even if it's by myself. Depending on other people is one of the main reasons why the previous attempts have failed smh. But i was trying to be safe and go with a buddy. However, I'm considering going at 6am tomorrow just me and my iPod and reestablish a daily devotion & prayer before I go. I do want to get closer to God as well as to pray for my safety.

everyone please pray or send good thoughts my way for safety and encouragement to do these daily morning walks =)

Wish List

As summer is winding down a few things come to mind for what's left of it and after.

Before Summer is Over:

• see Alexander McQueen exhibit (going this week! :)
• check out 5 Points
• get photo albums for my photos from my cruise & graduation
• develop grad pics lol
• maybe go to Coney Island? =) (i have never been!)
• finish creating my new room

In General:

• GET A JOB!!! (hopefully I can lock on down before the summer is over tho)

that's all i can think of for now....any readers have things they want to do before the summer is over?

Going back in time?

Yup, through tv anyway lol. Every weeknight starting last week to I believe the end of the summer (I could be wrong) Nickolodeon has been showing their tv shows from the 90s. They air four shows from 12am to 2am and they repeat again to 4am (Eastern time). The shows air on the Teen Nick channel. Let me tell you I have been goin to sleep so late and waking up early this past week, smh no good.

Growing up I didn't have cable and only on some rare occasion such as at a friend's house could i watch cable. My best friend from elementary school once made me a tape of shows including Hey Arnold and the Amanda Show (my fave! lol). So i'm glad that i get a chance to see what I have missed growing up. It would have been nice being able to compare watching them then and to watching them now, now that I'm older and see the different point of views.

Either way, I loved the 90's growing up and am glad these shows are back! What are your thoughts on any of the Nick shows notice anything from watching them then to watching them now? I would love to read them!

Crossing the divide

I came across this video a while back and it was pretty interesting, so when i came across it again today i wanted to share it. For anyone who knows about the hair typing system i think the white woman would fall under like 3b/3c and the black woman would fall under the 4 categories. However, sounds to me like the white woman has type 4 hair in the back of her head. In other words, sounds like the white woman has the kinky textured type hair in the back of her head and she seems to have real frizzy, soft, cottony hair as many black women have.

I wonder if the white woman, growing up, ever did or thought to relax/perm her hair for it to be smoother?
