I watch Glee RELIGIOUSLY! I LOVE the whole show and though they def tip-toe on blasphemy and show things that I wouldn't consider socially responsible, I STILL love the music & the drama of the show! Sue is my FAVORITE character ... probably b/c I can a bit of a douche-bag, like her.
My FAV Sue moment was quote, "I surgically removed my tear ducts when i was 19, b/c I wasn't using them" <<< I DVRed it and played it over & over b/c it made perfect sense & I laughed so hard b/c she was soooo serious lol If you aren't using your tear ducts... take out out smh
However, this last season she def cried about her sister dying soooo I question her surgical abilities :)

Today's Letter is K

"Knock on Wood Freestyle" ... if you gone do dirt then you can't leave a stain!
Day 10: A Song You Want Played At Your Wedding and J (Mayer Hawthorne)
Well, up until I was about 16, I wanted Chaka Kahn "Sweet Thing" to play at my wedding :) HOWEVER My moms said that would be a "no-no" b/c the song is about adultery... I didn't believe her. I was naive, "I would love you anyway, even if you cannot stay" <<<< I thought the man was going to work .... CLEARLY in retrospect i see he's going home to his wife o_0 can't have that playing at MY wedding :(
Soooo the more I matured, I decided Faith Evan "If I had One Wish" Will be played (and if i can afford vocal lessons, I'll be singing it to my husband) I agree with EVERY word in that song coincidentally, I'm not currently in love w/ any1 BUT when I do fall in love.....
If I had one wish, boy I'd wish you next to me And it could be in summer, fall or spring, boy 'Cause you make my heart sing I wanna give my heart, my soul, my love to you Oh baby 'Cause every day I'm not with you I'm missing you like crazy I need for you to...
(Chorus)
I need for you to love me (love me), hold me (hold me), touch me(touch me) Down deep in my soul, and never let it go Of the love we share, no one compares to you I'll never let you go 'cause I really love you so Oh I... I'll never let you go, oh no
PART II:
Today's Letter is J
About 2 year ago, my friend (Jessica) invited me to a concert on Franklin St and she mentioned names I'd NEVER heard before but she said she knew them for Detroit & promised they were good sooo I was down!
I was one of the BEST concert I'd EVER attended! Jamal Bufford went on stage 1st (far right) w/ Dj 14KT (beside me) and RIPPED it, great delivery, great structure, told great stories and I was beyond IMPRESSED!
THEN
This White boy in a cardigan and jeans stepped on stage (in my head I was RET TO GO)... He started singing and I was HOOKED sooo I present to you ... "Just ain't gonna work out" by Mayer Hawthorne
Day 9: The difference between your personal & your Internet life
Ummm much like the whole difference between TI and TIP, there is a difference between my personal & my Internet life.
Publicly/on the Net - I'm an extrovert, an open door, a glass house, etc I hold no bars, you can ask me ANYTHING via twitter/on my blog/facebook etc and I'll address it! I talk to people, I crack jokes, I'm unrefined & don't mind acting like a coon.
HOWEVER
Personal Life: I'm very PRIVATE... you can ask my roommate when I'm at home, I'm normally locked away in my room! I'm normally lost in my thoughts & planning my next move. I'm a professional & serious about my job! When I'm spending time w/ my family, I try not to be accessible because I'm spending quality time with the people I love.
The WAR:
I like to keep a balance between the private & the public, often times a plan/event/gathering happens privately and then after I think it through/it's official, I go public. So they really do go hand-and-hand.
Another note: Sen. Wiener is getting crucified and I'm not sure why... he wasn't taking "naked" pics in the House gym (he had bottoms on), so relax! Were his actions boarder line inappropriate? yes, BUT should he have "HAD" to resign ... not in my opinion! What if Bill Clinton had been impeached b/c of a lil head from Monica #SADday!
There's a CLEAR line between Public & Private and AS LONG AS you (I am) are upholding your PUBLIC responsibilities.... Your (MY) PRIVATE life really isn't my(YOUR) concern >>> Sooo for all the rats who read my blog & have anonymous comments<<<call me, e-mail me, text me ... don't be a snitch for the rest of your life!
Part II:
Now that THAT is out the way ...
Today's Letter is (so fitting)...... I

* my parents & grandparents decided I shouldn't have anymore pets :( * smh
Anyway, my sis got a dog for her bday last year and we named her Coffee and I <3 this dog more than i love some humans smh. When coffee was like 3 months, they let her off the leash & she bit into a cord in the house and began excessive vomiting, diarrhea, and Niran (my lil bro) gave her mouth-to-mouth and literally SAVED her life! She had respiratory issues for at least a month & she had 2 go to the emergency vet overnight ... the Vet said if she didn't get better, they would have to put her down. (below is a pic of Niran putting her around his neck to keep watch of her to make sure she didn't die in the middle of the night)
When I tell you I cried, cried, cried, cried, cried, cried lol i was tweeting asking people to pray FOR A DOG! lol but thank God she made it >>> picture of her are below!

In Lieu of the story I told above, the song for Today is "He's Able" (to save dogs so you know he can save people!) - Darwin Hobbs

"I go insane, crazy sometimes
trying to keep YOU from losing YOUR mind
Open your eyes, see what's in front of your face and
*In no Particular Order ... just go download them ALL*
1) MisEducation of Lauryn Hill -
I literally was educated by this album! When she says she needs some reciprocity in Ex-Factor ... i looked it up and since that day I've used it lol EDUCATION!
(my faves are To Zion, Doo Wop, When it Hurts so bad, Nothing even matters, Can't take my eyes off of you, Every ghetto, Every City) <<<< AWESOME ALBUM
2) 21 - Adele
Say what you want about her not being black & being fat ....SHE CAN SING and more importantly, she can write!
(my faves are: He Won't Go, One and Only, Someone like you) and if you're feeling extra froggy jump back to 19 and that album will teach you somethings too
3) Thankful- Mary Mary
Some say they don't sing gospel BUTTT I beg to differ ... that 1st album was made just for me!
(my faves are: Still My Child, One Minute, Good To Me (destiny's child is on that track too) Cant Give Up Now)
4) The Writings on the Wall - Destiny's Child
START at "So Good" .... sing along/listen and you will make it to "Sweet Sixteen & the Outro" I know EVERY TRACK on that CD from beginning til END... NO LIE!
5) The Nu Nation project - Kirk Franklin
My FAVORITE Kirk Franklin Album!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm also feeling this 'Hello Fear" Album BUTTT nothing compares to his first 3 albums w/ 3 different groups but who's counting? LOL
Honorable Mention:
6) J.Cole's Album whenever it gets here
7) Coming Soon - Coming Soon >>> it's an "independent" album and the Lead Singer, Marvin Mumford, who was my Youth Pastor KILLED it! I STILL listen to this CD now to make me happy
8) Ready to Die - Biggie ... No Words, just FIRE lyrics
9) All Eyes on Me- Pac <<< Best Rapper Alive (Dead) #thatisall

Part II
Today's Letter is "E":
I went w/ Exhale "Shoop Shoop" (Waiting To Exhale Soundtrack it FIRE as well)
Sometimes you'll laugh
Sometimes you'll cry
Life never tells us, the when's or why's
When you've got friends, to wish you well
You'll find your point when
You will exhale (yeah, yeah, say)
* I tend to be a little radical sooo let me preface this by saying ... Yes, I may come off a little "harsh" and it's MY reality ... I don't have a heaven NOR hell to put you in ... these are just my beliefs...*
I'm NOT the one you'll find w/a COEXIST bumper sticker on my car NOR and I "down" with the philosophy that "All gods are the same" ... When I refer to "God" it's with a CAPITAL G, NOT to be confused w/ Allah, Buddha, Jehovah (Witness), etc
1) Salvation
John 14:6(NIV): Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
--- Pretty much self explanatory, which is why I believe you should confess your sins, repent, and get SAVED (cc: Romans)
2) Baptism - I think baptism is 1 of many ways that confirms faith
a) Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist .... this is the #1 reason I think you should get baptized
b) I've never been baptized and I was so about to "get her done" like a month ago HOWEVER I lowkey punked out lol BUT rest assured, I'm planning for it while I "Fast, Pray, Leave"
3) Speaking in Tongues (this 1 is touchy lol) = Baptized in the Holy Ghost (Spirit) for the new age
a) I think it is another 1 of the many ways to confirm faith
b) it's a gift ... all you have to do is receive it ...
c) With that being said, I've never spoken in tongues BUT it is something I want to do :)
4) Tithe/Offering
a) Pay your tithe = Blessed Financially ..... Don't pay your tithe = Cursed Financially .... simple right?
b) For those who have comments regarding the pastor ... I don't care if my/your pastor drives a Bentley, has a 5 car garage, has 3 vacation homes .... doesn't matter what the church does with the money, it's about your blessing! God said give Him 10% that's YOUR responsibility ... the way the Church handles your 10% is between THEM and God ....
Things about me:
- I was in a Christian private school from kindergarten until 4th grade
- I LOVE The Bible .... like later on in life I really want to go 2 Theology school ....
- I'm ALWAYS down for some verbal jousting soooo if you wanna talk about my beliefs ... let me know
Today's Letter is D
*I'm actually going to do a secular and a gospel song only b/c today was about Religious beliefs lol*
Gospel: "Don't Cry" by Kirk Franklin ... i <3 this song
Secular : The runner up was "Doin' It" (LL Cool J) BUT I settled w/ Deja Vu (Lord (no pun intended) Tariq & Peter Gunz)
