Why I Hardly Ever Straighten....

So everyone wants me to straighten my hair.  I guess to see how long it really is or hairdressers that want my $ but dont have the skill set to do anything other than that....who knows. See this picture?  That is magnified heat damaged hair.  No ma'am! I dont want my hair to look remotely like that.  Most of you call this "trained" hair....its not trained its DESTROYED!    I went natural to indulge and appreciate my natural curls and so that I wouldn't be scared to sweat.  No matter what your hairdresser tells you or what you saw on your favorite YouTube video...your texture does not return back...

Curly = Pretty?

So this is my hair...  I dont know what type it is....some say 3c others 4a...needless to say I DON'T CARE!  Lets just say that I hear a phrase along this line everyday.... "You have that pretty hair"OR my favorite "I would go natural if my hair was like yours" WHAT DOES THAT MEAN!?! So because my hair is curly...it makes it pretty as opposed to her hair?   This is from people of color mind you... When are we going to just embrace who we are as a people?   What exactly makes my hair "good" and another person's bad?  If your assumption (which is the lowest form of knowledge mind you) is...

Just a little something...God gave me... Its for someone...its not testimonial...but meaningful nonetheless  Metamorphosis So the story begins... Shattered torn and so much confusion within... Why am I not pretty enough, why am I not thin enough Thick enough... Why am I not enough! He left me and then he left me so I tried her She promised that she was different...she would make me secure. But I failed to realize that with every decision I was becoming a poster child for the enemy’s brochure. Man... How could I be so foolish... To think that I could win in life doing this... It started with my daddy... He hardly came home... Only to fight with mama And to touch me in places that were wrong... That’s when I knew that I was ugly and that I didn’t deserve...

I Think I May Be a Food Addict

Seriously.  I think I may be addicted to food; specifically junk food.  From my upbringing I was not allowed to indulge in many things that I thought at that time would be fun.  Even when I got on my own, my upbringing stayed with me and there were some things that I just couldnt do...or get too far in to.  This didnt count for food.  I came from a family of a bunch of skinny people who could EAT!  Not to mention a mother and grandmother(s) that could cook the socks off of any iron chef!  So my love for REAL seasoned and delicable food started very young.  I didnt grow up one of those fat kids you see...

My Battle with Wii Basic Run

  This game gets on my nerves!!! At least it used to.  No matter what I did I would get a horrible burn rate at the end! What am I talking about? Wii Fit's Basic Run!  I mean I am in my living room wet as a seal and panting for dear life and I would get the most horrible scores ever!  What did it want from me!  Sheesh!  Anyway!  So this morning for the first time ever I got a 85% burn rate, it didn't feel as if I ran faster than any other time...but I noticed one thing.  I kept up with the other lil Wii characters along the trail.  So that is how they measure your rate!  Before I would never...
