Spring Break '10

Spring Break and it feels great. Right now i'm at the laundromat though...which isn't so great. on the plus side, they got new dryers! no more walking around looking for the one dryer that actually works. not having laundry facilities might be the worst part about my apt. building. i hate having to load all my clothes into a luggage bag on wheels and treking (cant spell that word), all the way to the laundromat. but at least now i have a computer and internet access to pass the time. Thank you Kofi for the computer, and thank you CLEAR™ for your affordable internet service. after this, i'm going to see Brooklyn's Finest with C (the things i do for him). and then it's off to a CRAZY night at work, but at least now i have a coworker that i like, and she makes going to work so much more enjoyable.

March Madness!

So March is here. My favorite month of the year cuz it's my birthday month! this past week has been hell, but now i'm about 11 hours away from officially being on spring break and i cant wait. i'll be super busy throughout the week next week, but i'll be doing things that are actually fun for a change! Sunday after work, i'll be at Sundae. Monday: some much needed shopping, then i'll be at Back2Basics. Tuesday: hair, nails, all that girly stuff, and that night, it's off to SUPERDOPE! which will double as a pre-bday gathering. Wednesday: recovery/relaxation. thursday's my bday: dinner with C! friday im working :/ gotta earn back some of that money ill be blowing. and here's the grand finale: saturday, mommy's coming to Philly!!! we're gonna hang out all day, do the mommy-daughter thing, then go out to dinner. other exciting news this month: Alice Smith is coming to Philly on the 28th and yup, i'll be there with one of my favorite people. and two days later? as if this month couldn't get any better? Erykah Badu's album drops.

Erykah Badu - Window Seat

Here's a song from her upcoming album, New Amerykah Part 2: Return of the Ankh, out March 30th!!!

Window Seat

On the TV right now: Jerry Springer - My Girlfriend Is A Pimp. [sigh] it's either this trash, or Star Trek, or infomercials. I've had a long, stressful day. why not watch these people make fools of themselves and beat each other up, to feel better about my life.

I'm not sure why I'm up. I woke up around 8am, had class at 11am, worked on a project, went to work from 4pm-1030pm, then went to SUPERDOPE! until 1230am. i should be knocked OUT. and the chicken i just had from Crown, isn't sitting too well with my stomach. oh by the way, i'm eating chicken again. i know Crown isn't the best place to go for quality food, but nothing else is open at this time of night.

ill post the pics soon. im too tired right now

Launch Party

Last night was the first Friday night in a longggggg time that I didn't work. I requested off because The Liberator Magazine had a launch party for its Philly Style Issue. I did the fashion shots, including the cover photo, for this issue. I was ecstatic. This is the first time my work has been published in print outside of a school publication. And the first time my work has been blown up and displayed. Afterwards we went to MINT in Old City for a friend's friend's birthday party. It wasn't anything amazing, but it felt good to just be out and relaxing for once instead of working.

I hope the restaurant isn't too crazy tonight. A lot of people are coming out for Valentine's Day tonight even though it's actually tomorrow. I'll be working a double shift tomorrow, but I'm excited to see what C got me. I'm not big on the whole capitalist, over-hyped, made-up, holiday, but I do like it when he's romantic.




current obsession: Adele

Sade

I'm unfortunately watching 106th & Park. C has it on because Sade is performing and he is obsessed with her. The last time I watched this show, I must've been about 14. I'm surprised they even have Sade on the show. The songs that these kids listen to today are so sad. I know I'm only 23, and I sound like an old lady saying that. I guess I just developed an appreciation for real music at a young age.

Scranton WHAT?!!
