Reflecting on the year gone by....

2009 what a year it has been for me. Over the last 3 years on new years eve I write down what I want to accomplish, well more like I claim it, because it will happen.I then re-read my list to see if what I wanted to accomplish was done and 8 times out of 10 it does! it is a great reflecting moment for me, to see my growth, downfalls and lessons learned. This year has been a little emotional eye opener for me ,I'm still learning me and I understand and see things differently now.

I started the year with wanting better health and spiritual growth.
I began going to yoga classes, reading more books, attending health seminars,and learning more about the occult(astrology,numerology etc).

I decided to stop eating meat and I am now a vegetarian. Began to investigate what was going into my body. Food affects your physical and spiritual vibrations/frequency and I love my greens, trying to let go of that sugar crack! but it will take me a while to reach vegan! hard letting go of the dairy lol

I've loxed my hair. I been wanting to do it for a while now and my family were deterring me from doing because of job opportunities! Quite frankly like india aire stated I am not (just) my hair! It's my life and who don't like it can suck on a nut! I cannot be bothered anymore! BRUSH AND GO IS THE MOTO! Au natural! simple plus when I did have extension people already thought i was loxed up

I met some beautiful wonderful blessed people! I am so happy that they are in my life!

I lost a good friend in the physical,but her energy lives on her spirit is still alive, I still hear her voice her giggles and one liners! oi oi who are yaaa!! dats my girl Taken from this earthly plane as you done your purpose and on to the next life you shall go. R.I.P PRINCESS RISIKAT TANWA BALOGUN 14.02.86 - 12.10.09 The one person who I knew who lived life to the fullest always positive always full of love. Love always Princess, its a pity that little dash between birth and death doesn't show the entirety of a persons life, personally there should be a hologram that shows a whole life story, c'mon now we are entering 2010! We should be driving space cars like the Jetsons by now! Anywho.. I'm side tracking..

Ahem..

This year I think I overloaded on the concerts as well as my CD consumption! I went and saw Maxwell Twice (my Muse/Boo!), Janelle Monae, Daniel Merriweather,Mos Def..ROLL ON THE MUSIC!

Fell in love with analogue cameras again.I heart the lomography store! I would live there if I could!

Attended a script writing class,half drafted two scripts. I am still trying to finish it off and I will.Promise :)

Spent incredible time with my loved ones.

Toned down raving to at least twice a month.. I must be getting old1

talk about old..IM GOING TO BE 25 YEARS YOUNG IN 15 DAYS! THE COUNTDOWN BEGINS! I accept all gifts, I do not discriminate ;-) xxx

Still paying back my overdraft but at least I am employed!

My motto; Everything in this life happens for a reason, Nothing is a coincidence. Follow your instincts(not your ego) it will never mis-direct you.

Here's to a prosperous,fruitful,positive and blessed 2010 beautiful People! I already know its gonna be BIG and a roller coaster of a life experience! Love freely. Be happy.Be you. embrace life and the lessons it throws at you. You will only learn from it and grow.

Love

Joke of the Day: Pumps and a Bump!!

So my Homie and I got into a conversation and the topic of Mc Hammer came up.
Now I want you to watch the video below.. How do you go from Hammer time, To legit to quit, Let us pray to this.....




*DEAD*
Now my homie was seriously fucked up when he first encountered this video as a child. Poor man is still scarred. He said he was a MC Hammer fan excitedly awaiting the premier of a new Mc Hammer video,expecting the video to be kid Tv friendly, God loving, expecting to see some clean dancing....and he comes out with PUMPS AND A BUMP!

A R E Y O U S E R I O U S? !!

1. HOW YOU JUST GONNA COME OUT IN A ZEBRA PRINT SPEEDO THONG!
2 BUT REALLY THO, ARE YOU SERIOUSLY WALKING AROUND WITH A FULL ERECTION!!
3.WHY YOU THE ONLY MAN IN SPEEDO THONGS? IM SORRY IM NOT TOO COMFORTABLE WITH YOU DOING SQUATS LIKE THAT!
4. HOW U GONNA TURN GANGSTA OVER NIGHT? WHAT ABOUT THE KIDS? (shout out to Adamz) CHURCH? WHAT HAPPENED TO THE MC HAMMER CARTOON WE LOVED WITH THE GOLDEN TALKING SHOES?
5.Why is he wearing black gloves in the heat?!! you in Cali son!
6. Are you really gonna sit down and play dominoes with your boys and em with a hard on?
7. why is Aaron Hall only singing at the end of the song? and why is he dressed like Afrikaan bambatta/big daddy kane?!
8. Did y'all spot Mc Hammer doing the Shabba Ranks bogal dance in the zebra speedo thongs?! lolllll
9. Hold on a minute why is he rockin timbs??!! in CALI?? looking like the 5th member of jodeci!!
10. Shout out to the girl with the green boxer shorts and baggy jeans hanging at her ankles! GO GIRL!! that is going to be my next signature move!

Mc Hammer pants £23, Mc Hammer toy doll £15, Mc hammer changing his whole image to pumps and a bump!...PRICELESS!!

Bad career move, but this video cracks me up he just had the wrong people around him..the church community disowned him,the kids, they must of thought he lost his mind!

On a personal note if I get married or if my home boy gets married , or if there is a christening celebration or funeral the DJ better play PUMPS AND A BUMP and y'all have to get down just like Mc Hammer did!!

Work those zebra thongs!

This is by far a CLASSIC video for the simple fact the video and song is bananas and Mc Hammer is a greased up gangsta parading around a hard on in zebra speedos!!

LOVE IT!!

KEEP THE PUMPS AND A BUMP MOVEMENT ALIVE!
