Still Keeping the Music Alive


So I have definitely taken a small vacation from my music. For those who didn't know, I write a lot of music. Its just something I love to do. Anyways, I'm getting back into it, and really want to start getting my stuff out there. I don't necessariy need to hit it big or anything but I just want people to be able to relate. You know how you may be going through it and there is always a song that sums up your life at the moment. Well I want people to be able to listen to my music and relate. Everybody's dropping mixtapes nowadays so I figured I try to do the same. So here is the cover shot for my mixtape which I decided to call "The Breakdown."

Movie Talk




Honestly I havent gone out to the movies in years. LOL. I know its sad but I just haven't made time for it. Not to mention the movies seems to get more expensive every year lol. Plus I have Netflix, so....yea. So if your wondering why I don't do a lot of movie talk on here that would be why.

Moving right along, I got a chance to watch a movie yesterday. An older movie, yes, but a goodie. I watched the 1949 classic, Pinky. Pinky shares the struggle of a girl name Pinky who happens to be of mixed race (black and white). She basically looks white though. She moves back down South (where she grew up) from the North and realizes that she is feeling a social difference. She struggles for acceptance not only from whites but from blacks as well. I feel like the whole motive of the movie for Pinky's journey in demanding respect. She demands to be treated like a human being. Not just her, but her race. Keep in mind she isnt ashamed of being part black.

What I love about Pinky's character is the confidence she displays. Even when she felt disrespected she always carried herself with pride and never backed down. She was very educated as well so that had a lot to do with the way she carried herself.

So that a short glimpse of my take on the movie, I could have written much more but I just want you to watch it for yourself and make your own judgements. So definitely check this one out and I hope you enjoy it.

I'm 23 Years Old!




So I'm a couple days late but I just celebrated a birthday and I am now 23 years of age. I actually somewhat dread birthdays because I just hate getting older even though I'm still young lol. IDK, I've just always been like that since I was little. But actually 23 is a pretty good age and I'm fortunate to have made it another year. Twenty-two was a great year for me though, I did a lot of traveling and just had a lot of fun. I feel like 23 is going to be a good year as well. The main challenge with being 23 now is my transition into independence. I am still in school (which I am so ready to be done with) but its time for me to start venturing out on my own. So this year is definitely going to be about hard work. However, you besta believe I'm gonna play even harder! Yup Yup! So again, thanks to everyone who took the time to wish me a Happy Birthday and lets have a good year! :D

Spring is Near!




I just wanted to take this time to get everyone in good spirits because Spring is around the corner. If you didn't know, Spring is my FAVORITE season of the year. Today, in Maryland, was such a beautiful day. It was very Spring like. It had to be in the 70's. Basically it was perfect. Lol. I am so looking forward to shorts and flip flps, and most importantly, NO COATS! So yes, thats pretty much all I wanted to say. So start expecting to see Spring clothes in your favorite stores pretty soon :D YeAh!


PS: I hope everyone has been keeping in shape all winter!
