Nina Sky has definitely upgraded themselves since they came out. I love the way they dress now. And I like how their tattoos don't look ghetto on them.

Ghita Fall 08: An Amazing Collection





Alexis absolutely murdered this collection. At first, I must admit I was not excited about her clothing line from what i saw in her previous collections, but I am far more impressed with this collection.

A Love Like This




These pictures are worth 1001 words and that 1 is LOVE. Looking at them gives me hope. I hope when I'm their age, Love will conquer all as well. Then too, some people just find the person their are actually suppose to be with while millions get caught up in situations and settle.

I'm Starting to Give Up on Apple



Honestly what was I expecting. Apple has been getting my hopes up since I have become a faithful, loyal customer in 2006 and I've been getting BS. Maybe its the critics and the blogs that I allow to get my hopes up but if it's one thing that I have learned in business, it's that WORD OF MOUTH is successful. So when shortly after the 1st iPhone was released June 29, 2007 and people were already talking about 3G, I knew the next iPhone would knock em all dead. Unfortunately I was wrong.

Still no MMS
Still no IM
Still no To Do List
Still no Video Messaging

These are standard things on all phones these days and at this rate I might as well switch back to T-Mobile and keep my sidekick.

If that wasn't bad enough. The iPhone will no longer be exclusive. For $199 and $299, everyone in the world will have one of these things and Steve Jobs plans to take over the whole world by selling iPhones to everyone. It used to be a privilege to be somewhere and have people quacking over your 16gb 499$(plus tax and accessories) iPhone, now its just going to be like:

"Oh you have and iPhone, white or black?"
"Black"
"Black"
"White"
"Black"
"White"
"Rhinestone"

The only thing that will set you apart with this bad boy is who has the best outer customization. O well I guess off to Crystal Icing, I go.

I think Apple is aware of the pull they have with it's consumers. That is why they constantly give us beautiful half assed, over priced products. And just as I gripe about the new iPhone, I too will be line for a White 16gb just like everyone else on July 11.

Forgiving & Forgetting

Lately, Iv'e been reading this amazing blog called Black Girl In The City. blackgirlinthecity.wordpress.com . Recently, she published a post called Karmic Lesson 1.1: Understand forgiveness. Here is an excerpt of what the gist of this post includes:

"I’ve learned a lot more about forgiveness. I used to say, “I will forgive but I won’t forget so you won’t do me again.” I’ve changed my position and really think now that the statement is false. If you don’t forget what someone has done, how can you really forgive them? What happens when people keep doing you and you build layers of memories that you refuse to let go of, thus keeping your guard.

I imagine it to be like something that grows harder and denser over time due to the layers added. That’s enough to weigh the strongest man down. So…how can you live and enjoy your life posted up behind some crusted nonsense of things you really need to forget so you can forgive? It’s time to free my damn self lol."


Reading that makes me realize that I am in a part of my life where I am very torn. All of my life I've been used and when I turned that part of me off, people were easily to say that I was mean and it was ways for me not to allow people to take advantage of me without being mean etc etc etc. At this point I feel like if I don't want to forgive you and I want to forget you, that is totally fine with me. Than that is an issue I need to deal with. But honestly, I am very tired of living by other people's standards. If I say I forgive you but I wont forget what you did, it just makes me more aware of what I will be willing to do for you or say to you or whatever the case may be that caused you to cross the line with me in the first place. I am a very giving and loving person but through my experiences in life, I have learned that just because you have the best intentions, don't mean that other people do. If someone shows you their true color except them for who they are. Now I will admit that I will completely cut people off if they hurt me and I do understand that people are not perfect and do make mistakes. But because of the way things tend to lay in my lap, people will continue to make mistakes with me on purpose sometimes. As far as relationships go, I definitely know that I have a habit of forgiving and not forgetting and in this case, it does mean I never forgave. 2 previous relationships come to mind and I know I haven't forgiven them simply because the way things unfolded. I was blatantly used. Nothing more and nothing less. I loved these 2 dearly and never meant anything to them. So honestly, I never forgave or forgot. Another example, I never forgave my dad for the BS he has put me through but very easily I forgot him. I don't necessarily believe that I am "build[ing] layers of memories that you refuse to let go of, thus keeping your guard." I let go of it all when I let go of the person or the situation. I do understand where BlackGirlInTheCity is coming from, but maybe I am just stubborn. What I do feel is that I am less willingly to meet new people and that I am constantly exing out people that I already know.


My biggest concern is that, things like this, such as forgive and forget, is this an attempt to appease your soul, make yourself feel better, or because in God's eyes, it's the right thing to do.

I fell in love today!

Lately I've found myself to be obsessed with town houses and condos. As I'm preparing to return home from school, I plan on moving out of the house. Now I am very aware of the fact that I will not be making 450,000 a year to pay for this baby, but hey it's ok to make long term goals right?









Something like this would be at least 1 million in NY. Ahh I just <3 my city!

DSquared

Yea, I know this collection is old but they are slowly becoming my new favorite designers.





Damn those Canadian!!!

Say What!?!

I love people who are not afraid to think out of the box and do their own thing. When people are not afraid to get their necks tattooed and not worried about what they think at a corporate job. I respect people who are true themselves like that and regardless if they are trying to be a rebel or not they definitely are to society and I admire these people because they have overcome the battle that I have been dealing with for so long. It's ok one day I will get the tattoos I want and not worry about rather I will find a job or not. I will say what I want to say and not worry about who it affects. I will do what I want to do because I am the one who governs myself and my success, not society. I will do all these things and still drive a cream phantom coupe because I should not be defined by my tattoos, the way I dress, rather I have the right degree or talk the talk. I market myself beside the superficial external things.

Anyway here is an example of a clothing line, that is not afraid to take risks and say what's on their mind. They are not worried about rather people will find it offensive, or sales. They are doing THEM!!! Gotta Love M.O.B. <3 and Hellz Bells for simply not giving a damn!





I won't try to explain. But let that marinate...
