Day 15: A word or cliche that people say and you hate it.
"Fake it til you Make it"
I absolutely HATE this cliche'. Why? because my follow up question for this cliche' is ... What IF you DON'T make it? Call me a pessimist, faithless, or even a negative Nancy but, I prefer to be considered a REALIST!
The reality of it all is being fake will NEVER get you anywhere. I think it's ignorant to waste your time faking it, when what you SHOULD be doing is planning, setting goals so you can map out a trajectory to "making it". Instead of wasting your time and money trying to look like you have it all together.....
Today's Letter is 'N'
I'm going with "Nobody Knows it but me" - Baby Face <<< I know it's a throw back BUT I love his music and I think RnB is becoming a lost art :(

Text in my inbox (M)
Day 14: Last ten texts in your inbox.
I think this has been the most weird of all the prompts I've seen. More importantly, it could lead to ALL KINDS of trouble *evil villain laugh* anyway: (imma go most recent to oldest verbatim then a brief background)
1) "Oh wht time u gettin off?" <<< self explanatory
2) "haha I was just tryna be helpful" <<<someone told me something I already knew
3) "awwwwwwww" <<< I sent them a photo
4) "True..." <<< I was talking about work
5) "I'm gonna call her" <<< tryna get somebody put on at my job
6) "ohmygoodness! I love it! Super cute and professional" <<< I sent them the same photo
7) "ok ill wait tillbu hit me up then" <<< I told him to give me some space
8) "where are you located" <<< self explanatory
9) Red Box sent me a free DVD code .... I will be using it tonight :)
10) "nah. haven't been on fb or twitter. What's the blog abt? And who?" <<< I blogged about them & they hadn't seen it yet SMH
*wipes forehead* Glad there wasn't anything "bad" in there ;)
Part II:
Today's Letter is "M"
Well, gotta show respect where respect is due ... today's song is "Motivation" - Kelly Rowland & Weezy <<<< such an addictive song (So addictive, my grandma knows it SMH)..... I'm still working on the gospel version ... s/o 2 my "what key are we gonna be in" crew

Letters to my Siblings ... Tek
First off, Let me tell ya'll i am TRULY blessed to have friends that I really do consider siblings. So this letter is dedicated to none other than Tamekia L. Foxx:
Dear Tek, Mek, Ta-me-ki-a, pookie, sensi, Teko, La...... the list goes on
I Love You! I fight with you more than anyone & we bump heads REGULARLY but NEVER doubt that I LOVE YOU!
You are the inspiration (outside of God) as to why I am here in Cedar Rapids Iowa !!!! A simple suggestion from you changed my life for the better. You rode/drove with me in a car for 20 HOURS from NC to IA. You have pushed me so far.... you ALWAYS hold me to a high standard. You are YOU!
Tek, I just want to say thank you! You've been there for me when I've had $0 to my name. When I've had no car you gave me a ride. When I had no food, you came to my job w/ food and $20 in the bag. We almost fought b/c I was a lowkey alcoholic. We then cried together..... Thank You for being my sister, co-spy, ride out partner, security guard at the club, secret keeper, auntie, dad, cousin, mom, everything!
Our friendship has grown from just seeing you at "cult events" to being sad when I haven't heard from you all day!You always know HOW to make me happy (fun fetti cupcakes) and WHEN to be stern & tell me about myself (daily lol). I'm not sure WHY God saw fit to bring our lives together but I'm glad He did!
You are soooo little in frame BUT you have the BIGGEST heart! You NEVER judge (I can't figure out how you don't either), and even when you're upset with me.... it's never for too long!
I wish you much success in EVERY endeavor of your life. I KNOW that God has something (and someone) special for you. You've been through SOOOO many trials and have SOOO much wisdom to share with the world! I can't wait to see your dreams come true :) I only hope that I've been 1/2 the friend you've been to me....
Stay strong, stay happy, stay confident, stay Foxxy!
Love,
ProdiGal Child .....Sade

Hello World
Hello World ... *taps mic* Is this things on??
I has been a minute & I've been feeling soooo much since I last blogged sooo excuse me if this blog is longer than most :)
1) Iowa- Iowa is cool! Honesly, it is as hot as NC soooo I'm NOT excited about that LOL but the humidity always reminds me of home :)
Anyway, I FINALLY finished training on Monday (it was one of the most intense things I've been through in my life. Homework due to midnight nightly and classroom setting 8am-5pm and sometimes 8am-8pm BUT it was all worth it in the end)
I haven't had a chance to sight-see yet BUT I fully plan on it next week ;)
2) I'm 'moving' to Chicago on Aug 28th to set up a call center :) I'm beyond excited b/c I get to test my training b/c I'll be all alone :) ALSO if you are trying to come to Chi-town, hit me up... I leave Oct 21st ;)
3) I'm lonely ... don't get me wrong, I'm not depressed or suicidal or anything, I'm just lonely. Yesterday was the FIRST day I was alone since Ive been in Iowa!!!!! Mek came w/ me to Iowa, Julisa stayed w/ me til Sunday & i made friends w/ my co-trainees during our whole month of training...soooo now, I'm actually ALONE!
a) No worries though, I'm going to start working out ... join #Team NO Back Fat (compliments of Rhonda Foxx) aka team body tight for homecoming
b) Reading ... I don't have cable nor wireless sooooo when I'm not watching movies, I'll read books :)
4) I want to be loved. *bbm shock face* yea, I know! Me, Sade Uniqua Gilbert actually wants to be in a relationship. I think I'm FINALLY at the point where I WANT to share, I WANT to grow with someone, I WANT to be loved.................
Well, I think I've caught ya'll up on everything. I'll get back to my blog challenge on Monday :)
Some things to look forward too:
13) Letter to my other siblings
14) Last ten texts in your inbox.
15) A word or cliche that people say and you hate it.
16) What do you think a stranger’s first impression of you would be?
