Rock$tar 101 Video!
Back to the dark side-I don't know how I feel about this...back to the leotards, spikes, and black lipstick. It's becoming routine, which is why I loved the Rude boy video. Interestingly enough, Melina Matsoukas, the director of this video also directed her Hard and Rude boy videos. She's also responsible for: Beyonces- Why don't you love me & Diva, Snoops- Sensual Seduction, Lily Allens- Not fair and more. Now SHE seems extraordinary ( I think I luh her lol). Anyway here's her vision-Enjoy!

Confessions of a True Food Junkie, Part 2
It's me again. So, as you can tell by now, I have a profound love for food. I love to eat. There is nothing quite like devouring the most delicious meal ever. But.....it is absolutely the worst thing ever when you are excited about your desert, or salad, and it fails to hit the spot!
Yesterday, on the way to work I stopped by Cafe Metro. For those of you familiar with New York, they're everywhere! So I grabbed soup & tea for my cold but decided to treat myself to a red velvet cupcake! I know, total contradiction, but I was sick & in need of a smile!
I finally get to work in Brooklyn, and headed straight for the office. I sat down quickly and whipped out that cupcake like there was no tomorrow! Then, I carefully carved out my first bite, and it was...AWFUL! I'm talking about 4 bucks down the drain! Yea, I spent 4 bucks on a cupcake, its New York!
I guess it just brought me to the realization that this happens far to often....and to correct this dillemma, I have decided to try cooking. Lol. Let's see how that works out.

Yeah that's how I feel! DEAL!
I use to second guess if I was feeling what I was suppose to be when people (usually guys) would put a guilt trip on me for feeling a certain way. I finally figured out that it wasn't what I felt they had a problem with, but the way I was expressing these feelings. I am a bit temperamental but now I just remind myself that......
You can not help your feelings, but you can help your thoughts.
Therefore, do NOT ever feel bad about how you feel.
Our individual degree of emotions are an innate part of our composition (the excuse for my b*** fits ).
DO be cautious with the transfer of these emotions to thoughts, as they will inevitably be reflected through your words and actions. Consciously and/or subconsciously.

Confessions of a True Food Junkie
So after work, I hoped the F train straight to the nearest Baskin-Robins. To my surprise, not that many people picked up on the deal going on, oh well, more sweets for me! I proceeded to choose from the ice creams, and there it was, like a $100 dollar bill on the ground….Oreo Cookies & Cream Ice Cream! “How many scoops miss?” he asked. I quickly replied “3 please”. Then I thought, wait, these are only 31 cents a scoop and you’ve been wanting ice cream for how long? “Change that to 6 scoops please!”
I hurried on to the 2 train like I found the winning lotto ticket and just kept smiling. I cracked open my treasure and began to devour the ice cream. Suddenly the lady next to me asked “Are you going to eat ALL that?” I was puzzled, one because its New York City & people rarely try to hold a conversation, but more so because it was my ice cream that I bought to eat, so what’s it to her? I simply replied “Yea, I’m going to eat ALL OF IT”. She giggled with her neighbor. Then I realized that there were glares coming from people in every direction. All I could wonder is, what’s the big problem? Yea, so what, Im a small framed gal, but does that mean I shouldn’t indulge in the Oreo Cookies & Cream Ice Cream? Or cause I’m skinny, I should instead have salads & lattes?
I began to wonder about the larger issue……do we as a society deem certain things okay because of someone’s physical make? For instance, if it was a larger set woman eating the ice cream, do you think people would of asked her the question? Or if instead that same larger set woman was eating a salad, would you automatically assume she was trying to loose weight? Or what about the skinny girl who parades around in clothes to big, and those who snicker and say “she’s got a great body, I don’t know why she hides it under all that fabric!”
I guess the point I am trying to get at is that nosy people should mind their business. But more importantly, has society become so vain that we are predisposed to have certain conceptions based on the physical make of a human? What happened to enjoying the simple things & indulging in the things that bring you pure bliss. Im not advocating eating ice cream everyday, I’m just saying, people shouldn’t get so caught up in the materialism, consumerism, and what other’s deem as the right things that will make you happy and look good. Instead, treat yourself to the things that will make you smile more and stress less, whether its ice cream or just a book.
That’s just my opinion.
Just had to vent & share the thought.
