Chateau Bellegrave relaxes me..what about you?

These days I'm becoming a wine drinker freak lol...sitting here sippin' on my wine and very relaxed and trying to work on my blog....damn! it's not easy nor just a one, two, three thing either..it's time comsuming (not that I mind) but there's too much distractions at my house and that's hard. So me having a glass of wine really relaxes me and put my mind to workand not have to worry about anything..turned off phone, got loff myspace, and so on, which by the way seems to help.I love my family and all but a sistah gotta work and I need to concentrate here..that's why most of the time I'd go to a coffee shopand just have my headphones on and listening to my india.arie and get to work..So there's alot I have to work on on my blog..Im getting to it slowly but surely ehh!! I work and have other things going on in my life and that's why I'm not really up to my game and do the blog so often like some ppl who basically have nothing really going on for them (no offense anyone)..But hopefully soon I'll get on my grind like coffee beansthis is mone of my favorite wines...it's nothing expensive, very affordable... it tastes great and very sweet (to me)... it is the delicious Chateau Bellegrave Volume: 750 Stars: *** Vintage Date: 2000 Price: $34.19 Link www.chateaubellegrave.com

What's wrong with these celebrities?

One thing I don't understand, why does some artists have to be so ..so complicated about things and gotta make things extra just because they have money and popular and noone would not say or have certain opinions about them..

We all know everybody are different and maybe some choses to be different and not have to be like others, but at the same time some people chose to be so different that it's rediculous...

When I first heard the new beyonce "single ladies" I thought it was stupid...I don't think this song nor the video made sense at all. I know she's a great artist and she's beautiful, and talented but this one and "if I were a boy"? is that it?..I was like "what the hell?" I was confused-didn't Ciara made a song (if I was a boy) or something like that before? I don't know. Am I the only one that feels like that or what? AND BEFORE YOU START ASSUMING THINGS..I AM NOT JEALOUS OR "HATIN'" ON HER OR ANYONE. I just think her two last songs doesn't make sense at all. Like I said she is a wonderful artist but come on now beyonce!

By the way what's up with the "Sasha Fierce" anyway?

I was reading something on spinner about her and I totally agree-what's up with her "alter-ego" anyway? lol..what, everyone has an 'alter-ego now? Smhh..

Just read on..

Alter-Egomaniacs: Singers and Their Split Personalities

Why do so many singers adopt a second persona, either onstage or in real life? It could be they just can't cope with being their usual selves sometimes -- or, more likely, it's that they're overflowing with more talent than it's fair for just one individual to possess.

Beyoncé aka Sasha Fierce

Beyoncé's new double album, 'I Am ... Sasha Fierce,' is the work of two artists. On one side, the refined megastar we all know simply as Beyoncé. On the other, a brash, sexy newcomer named, you guessed it, Sasha Fierce. Surprise -- they're the same person! As Beyoncé puts it, "Sasha Fierce is the fun, more sensual, more aggressive, more outspoken, more glamorous side that comes out ... when I'm on the stage"

My L word..

I am back. Seems like I haven't been on here in a while I just been so busy lately with work and when I get off or off I rather nap or sleep and read...So excuse me if I'm not about internet or myspace and so on (there are more important things)..and that's my opinion anyway ::shrugs::

But I just have to post this on my blog....

Does anyone ever heard of that show (HBO) call "the L word"? Well the L word is one of my favorite shows on HBO. I am sure somewhere or you must have heard it from someone or maybe you happened to flipped to HBO and seen a preview of the show. Well it is a lesbian show which anyone who just like drama, chaos, and love beautiful ppl watches it.

Well the L word is full of it-lovers, cheaters (a lot), liars, losers, sisters, best friends that happens to know one another. they all had a little bit of each other ehhh....but all are best friends in some ways.

and I am so excited for season sixth to come out (Jan. 9th) unfortunately would be their last season :(

anyway feel free to click on the link that's on the bottom of this page and take a tour on their page...enjoy the visit ::smiles::

I would first like to introduce Jennifer Beals as Bette Porter: She is such a great actress, and I know I don't have to mention how beautiful she is as well as talented. She is a mother, a lover and unfortunately a cheater....very successful and powerful. And she is beautiful in person (all are). Helena Peabody played by Rachel Shelley: Beautiful, intelligent. She is a mother, a lover, a cheater, a fighter and a convict lol....she was also known to prey over Tina (Bette's wife)....yeah season six (last and short season would definetaly include more casts members... there goes the beautiful, talented, gorgeous, sophisticated, sultry women that we all would love to be around of and socialized with....Bette,Shane, alice, Kit, Tina, Dana, and Jenny.....go feminists lol....we make the world a better place ::watching out so I won't get my head chopped by anyone who takes offense to it..

and there goes me right between Alice and Kit lol....

Now I would love for you to take a look at each character and see how beautiful each and everyone of them are :) aren't they lovely....

now from bottom left:

Erin daniels played as Dana Fairbanks, Leisha Haileyas as Alice pieszecki, Jennifer Beals as Bette Porter, Katherine Moennig as Shane McCutcheon.....

now top left:

Sarah Shahi played as Carmen de la Pica Morales, Mia Kirshner as Jenny Schecter, Laurel Holloman as Tina Kennard, Rachel Shelley as Helena Peabody, Pam Grier as Kit Porter. So after all I will keep an eye on this show and maybe and just maybe the producer might re-think of coming out with a seventh season ::smiles::

::::listening to "bye bye"::: yup that's Mariah Carey baby :)

this song really helps me when I'm down and out of it..-someone I really loved and still do and cared about hurt me, thought they were in the relationship with me but I found out I was alone in it*

But I know I will be ok..

I had a beautiful short day today...Mmmm!!

I am very relaxed now about but, cold out and nice and warm inside....sippin' on my wine ::licking lips::

There's something I haven't revealed to you yet..

My friends thinks I'm weird for loving an artist so much, well I wouldn't call it weird or I'm a stalker, or even obsessed-I'm sure there's one of you out there that has a favorite artist that you love so much and knows each and every song (lyrics)..:::one eyebrow raises::

But she is lovely, beautiful, talented, intelligent and beautiful from head to toe, inside and out :)

As much as I would love to go on and on about her and tell you a little about her it would take me hourse to do this, but you can check her out on her site.

oh for my Mariah Carey fan out there I'm sure you'll want to check this out..she'lll be performing....enjoy

just something I did when I was in school....enjoy..

This is something I wrote in my Creative Thinking class when I was in school last year....or two years before that (I think) lol..but anyways I just thought I'd share it with you lovely bloggers and non-bloggers... I'm not into poetries or into words but it was my first Haiku...oh by the way if you don't know what a Haiku is.. by the way it's Haiku (HI-coo).. Haiku is a poetic form and a type of poetry from the Japanese culture. Haiku combines form, content, and language in a meaningful, yet compact form. Haiku poets, which you will soon be, write about everyday things. Many themes include nature, feelings, or experiences. Usually they use simple words and grammar. The most common form for Haiku is three short lines. The first line usually contains five (5) syllables, the second line seven (7) syllables, and the third line contains five (5) syllables. Haiku doesn't rhyme. A Haiku must "paint" a mental image in the reader's mind. This is the challenge of Haiku - to put the poem's meaning and imagery in the reader's mind in ONLY 17 syllables over just three (3) lines of poetry! Check out some Haiku at Haiku Salon (see Lesson 2 for the link). ************************************************************************************ * *

ENJOY MY WONDERFUL HAIKU

I set my time yet,

I still woke up late for school

I got to school early

It’s nice outside

Yet it’s a little too cool

I like that weather

You really hurt me

I really liked you

I do believe life goes on

I miss you a lot

But do you miss me?

I wish you were here right now

I live in Brooklyn

Though I’m a city person

I love the city

The Homeless man there

He’s homeless but has knowledge

There’s still hope for him

Although I can’t see

But I can hear pretty well

She’s still a smart girl

Right now I’m throbbing

Can I take care of it now?

When class is over

That feels so good

Please continue loving me

Ouch! That really hurts!

I was once happy

Until you walked away, gone

But today is a new day

Please come back to me

Guess what? I never loved you

Sorry I missed you

Don’t stop loving me!

No! Yes! Please don’t stop right there

I missed everything

She was once loved

She feels so lonely

The world turns their back on her

Sitting in this class

Thinking of you and misses you

Should I ask the same?

These beautiful Haiku are by Valerie Pierre-Louis

it's so shouldn't be like that but these formats are killing me...bear with me.

but every 3 lines has a space..

not sure if i'm the only one...

ok so i feel like i'm alone here, sitting at my friend's house and listening jill scott and browing around her site (hey her songs helps a great deal), and wondering about my life and how much i can improved it, there are things i need to work on and things i can just say f**** it to and let go-but it's not so easy to let go of certain bad habits and faults ::shrugs:: wait.... a little writers block set in-excuse me just a little drained... ::::pause:: ::clears throat::

like i was saying i plan on improving my life for the better...start doing things i've never done (nothing negative though). but things like going back to school and start on my internship ASAP, get my license (who knows lol), and hopefully get my own place (better)...

i feel very blah, have this blah but very strong.

long week of work then went out of town to visit friends...

lets just leave it at that ok.......:::looking around::

::wipin' one tear away::

don't you ever feel so lost like you're all alone on this planet with no one there for you?

i've lost great ppl in my life, some were phony and some were too good to lose but i just had to let go and move on with my life...

it's frustrating to know you love someone and care about them but they don't see it..they..they tend to look the other way and make bad choices,,,,,

but lets leave it at that ::walking away::
