Lyrics

All I want is to find lyrics online for Q-Tip's The Renaissance.

Somebody take the time to write these out!

He just says so much sometimes, I feel the need to read his rhymes.

PS- I'm feeling "Believe" featuring D'Angelo a little TOO much... The reason I'm writing this entry.

SAY WHAT NOW?!



Ohhhhh, so we're trying to raise prices of Metrocards now?!

$2.50 a far?

$5 ROUND TRIP?!!??!?!?!?!?

I'm not ready. My pockets just aren't ready.

The world is ending and you can't tell me otherwise.

...I need a bike or a skateboard or something, this isn't cute anymore.

Wild, Wild Hair Part 2

So!


I recently bought cocoa butter oil for the locks and I'm not sure if I like it as a styling product.

Actually, no, I don't.

Still, I think it's good for the scalp, so I'll keep it for that.

In other exciting news (lol) I finally purchased my first Miss Jessie's product!

Behold:


Supposedly, these products are the mother of all curly hair products... And the salon in Brooklyn looks pretty legit as well.
I'm trying to head over there ASAP! (What I should be doing is my homework right now, so that I could have me a nice curly hair weekend... but that's neither here nor there.)

So I did my usual. No shampoo, just conditioner (look into that, I don't feel like explaining why curly hair doesn't necessarily need shampoo.)

Then I separated my hair and put the meringue in. Unfortunately!!!!!! I diffused and the jar says to air dry... Which means, I'm not lookin' too perfect right now lol

But this was only my first time.

Details on my second attempt- later!

Ramblings, ramblings... and ramblings 4

I'm at the point of my academic career where I just want to stop.

You?

I'm lazy, I don't see the point, I feel smart enough for the time being, and I just want to get the fuck out there.
I don't care for the classes I'm taking and I want to breathe. I'm over this, the paper writing, the studying.
I used to love school, honestly. Now I'm just not motivated, there are so many things I'd rather be doing than writing a paper on the hero in an Asian American novel. Sure it's a good book... but so what?

I don't know how much longer I can take.

You?

OBAMA.

Notice how I have yet to comment on our first black president.

I just can't find the right words to express how I feel inside about it.

I should've been like every other blog and had my GIANT picture of Obama up the MINUTE we found out he won...

But I'm *still not ready.

Everything this country has put us through, finally, finally, finally.

That's all I kept thinking (as I cried alone in my dorm for about an hour, ha).

Who knows when I'll be ready.

I'm hearing talks of going to the inauguration in January, maybe by then I'll be able to process what's happening to this country.

*My country? Yeah, maybe I'll feel right saying that soon.

How Was Your Halloween?



!

"If you're fill with affection,
You're too shy to convey...
Meditate in my direction....
FEEL YOUR WAY.
You better shape up,
'Cause I need a man!"


Good times, you?

=)
