Day Fourteen: I like the groove of your walk, your talk, your dress

Definitely in my top 20 favorite videos. Michael Jackson probably makes the most appearances on the list! What videos do you like? Please share!

Day Thirteen: and why should I have to miss out on the next R. Kelly album JUST for THAT?!

Day Twelve: destiny... or fate?

I searched "destiny" on Flickr, and this was the first image to come up.

Day Eleven: big night for us, gentlemen...

Richardson: You look exhausted. You should take a vacation when all this is finished. You've earned it.

Harry Mitchell: I'm not sure the kind of tired I am can be fixed by a vacation.

Day Ten: cupid has done it again

Why am I still a day behind????!!!

Day Nine: the crush

(Makeup for missing yesterday)

This was more or less my experience... I was just minding my own business, about to pummel some kid, when all of a sudden the sun hit him just right and the wind blew his hair back and I had to put my fist down. My stomach twisted up & my heart kinda skipped a beat.... and suddenly... I HAD A CRUSH!!



I'm just kidding, that never happened to me.. But I did have some good crushes back in my day :)

Day Eight: if I could trade my fame and all my jewelry

What I see/feel when I listen to this song:

It's 1997, I'm sitting at home in the afternoon, watching The Preacher's Wife on TV... and my mom is cooking Sunday dinner. I hear the popping of grease and smell something I know I'm going to like. And I'm (im)patiently waiting for the sweet tea to cool down...

I'm young, so of course there's no real homework to do. I'm free to enjoy -- and hold tightly onto -- the last few hours of the weekend.

Relaxation.

Shout out to Samantha :)

Day Seven: it's never safe for us, not even in the evening..

Day Six: my dignity's come undone

Omg, almost missed my time!

This is a rough week, so each post is going to be pretty short (and ugly).

The point of today: so much great music being made lately! I've gotten so much beautiful new stuff from friends throughout this whole month and I'm so grateful for it/them! Some of this I would've never heard if it weren't for them. So this is for y'all :)

Day Five: I wish that I could be what I want to, I wish that I could do what I don't do....

"It was my misfortune -- or salvation -- to be at all times perfectly conscious of my misperceptions of reality." - Susanna Kaysen

(Big Sean & Mike Posner w/ "Who Knows")

Day Four: think I've got some dip on the side...

This is really for yesterday:

Day Three: messing me up, my whole head. teasing me, just like Tisha, did Martin...

Last night I was excited to go to a 90s party. I got dressed up - backwards cap, hoop earrings, cartoon tshirt, bright sneakers. Needless to say, I was hype.

But then I got there.... and there was no 90s music. What is that?! Was it too much to expect music... from that decade?

Whatever. Here's a 90s playlist to make up for what I missed last night.
And this is just a tiny SNIPPET of the wealth of good music that is available from that time. Like... only a molecule.

Dress up, dance in your mirror, and enjoy!!!!

Day Two: will they ever be around or will they turn their backs on you?

Happy Friday!!!!!

Not much to say... but I wanna have a TV sitcom group of friends when I get older. Girlfriends, How I Met Your Mother, Friends... good stuff like that :)

(Granted, Girlfriends is sometimes trife... and so are other TV shows. But the dynamic is what I'm feelin.)

Day One: she's the color of the sun, the petals of a daisy

As I consider transitioning this into a more personal blog & creating a new public/structured one, I want to try to make myself post something every day for 30 days. Think I can do it?!

I'm gonna keep it pretty open ended - a quote, a song, a story, a question, a list, etc. Anything goes. If you blog, I vote you do it with me! 30 days starts..... NOW!

Today feels like a quote day.
