Bowful of Sparkles!!!

I. love. to. dance.
It's one of those things that just fills me deep within, when there are no words left to express the feeling.... I dance.

Sometimes it's not something that choreographed and sometimes it is but one of my favorite types of dancing is liturgical dance.

One of my other favorite things I love is giving my God the praise. So if I could bring my love of dance and my love for the Lord together it's a good day for me!!

There are a lot of dances that I love but one of my favorite is Shekinah Glory Your Name and Psalm 27 followed closely by Richard Smallwood Anthem of Praise. They are both incredibly long but fun!!

I like to search on youtube and I found this other group doing a dance to Your Name and Psalm 27... so here it is and I think they did a good job

Good Hair

I know I am probably the last person to talk about this in the blogosphere..
But what exactly is good hair?

Before we even talk about this I just wish people would educate themselves before they start talking...
Like
Did you know that relaxers contain many caustic materials?
Did you know that most black people have curly hair?
Did you know that to care for natural hair you cannot use the same products used for natural hair?

There are so many more questions I just want people to know the facts before another person tells me that my "wig" looks pretty. News flash!!!
The hair you see on my head actually grows from my scalp...but you would know that if you knew about natural hair at all.

Nappy or pretty.. I think my hair is fly!!!

Who wants to be right as rain...

Finish the lyrics and you get..
Brownie points!!!
Haha I'm struggling to even pay myself.

So question of the day
Why doesn't the Adventist church have a college scholarship fund for students (yes ones who go to Adventist institutions and ones who do not) so that they do not have to stress out when ever semester starts?????

Do you know?
No? I dont either....

All the Girls Standing in the Line for the Bathroom

I am a romantic at heart and one of the things that tugs at my heartstrings are weddings and all that it involves. This I can see as an alternative to having a bouquet of flowers... you know for the bride who may have a courthouse wedding (something that I might want) and wants something that will last (cause you know those flowers will die right?)

I'm a Talkative Person Just Not a Phone Person

Man!! These past couple days have been really hectic. I was jet-setting in a sense. It was fun with the occasional bumps in the road.

Last night I went to a concert at New Life (yeah that's my home church) featuring JJ and Youthful Praise... and let me tell you it was amazing. Yes the music was loud as is typical New Life fashion and the praise team was alright but when it was JJ's turn he took it to a whole other level.

Still recovering from all the fun I had so I'll catch you on the flip side and I'm back to my regular update..

PEACE

Watering the plants on a cool summer day can be very detrimental to your health, and this is how I figured it out.....
You unravel the hose, you turn on the water, and a stream of it shoots out from the spout giving new life the all the thirsty plants. All the while you are watching this, thinking "Man this is a really relaxing household chore"

Then your mind attacks!!!

It wanders and starts to think about things you have not authorized it to think about but you cannot seem to stop, you are no longer in control. The steady stream or water coupled with the weight of the hose in your hand seems to make you very venerable.

Then as soon as it starts.... it's over, and you come crashing down to the reality that is your life.

This may sound a little trippy....but honestly it's me. Has this happened to anyone else or is it just me? It may be a "me" thing but I admit it was fun while it lasted

Im Outie!

Giddy Text Messages

Sometimes I want to grow up and other times I wish I could just be a kid forever. Guess this is what happens when you are on the brink of being adult and making truly adult decisions, like what you want to do for the rest of your life (going to college and living on campus does not count, your parents still pay the bills..)

On another note I think I want to start back blogging about my hair among other things.
Till later
DEUCES!!!!

Natural Bouffants and Evian Water Bottles

Today was arts and crafts day..
I rediscovered a pack of purple dye in my room and decided to turn one of my beloved white v-necks into an ombre pattern, and now that it is in the stage of drying it looks FABOOSH!!!!!!

The second thing I did today is play around in my hair.... I did lots of styles
1. combed out killer afro
2. all the hair swept to the side
3. other stuff

Now im painting my nails and getting ready for the Sabbath!
DEUCES!!!

Up and Down Stairs

So I was trying to be an intellectual today by taking a trip the library to increase to my capacity for learning but as usual people get never failed to piss me off.....

While driving in the narrow congested streets of Old Towne Frederick two people just seem to go out of their to make me upset! It's like what Dane Cook says " When you get in an accident the person who hits you always acts like it's your fault you hit them!! (Sidenote: You should google him cause he is funny!!)
I mean I didn't get into any accidents but they were close. I just want Americans to chill the BLEEP out and drive calmly and safely...LIKE ME!! (Ok maybe that was a bit conceited...but I do believe I'm pretty safe on the road....sometimes to safe...that a story for another day)
Well anyway this post is done until 2morrow
Dueces~

Robtos and flashdance

Two notes:

Transformers 2.... frickin amazing

&

SYTYCD... ditto!!!

Squirrels in the tree...

Well I'm back!!!
It's been forever, I know, but I want to make this promise to myself that I would post everyday even when I have nothing profound to say....

So it's July 7th, 22 days until my birthday...
Thing is I'm not that excited as I thought I would be.
I just keep thinking about all the important looming events that I need to catch up Cause thing is I have been "ignoring" the important aspects of my life all summer.
So as summer continues it's time for some major time management!!

What white cold and fluffy all over....

A Snow Day!!
