Morning Breath

ugh.!
So this morning I wake up to gloomy skies and a itchy tragus.
wtHECK?!
No actually, the itchy ear WOKE ME UP.
I think I may have laid on it too much because when I woke up I was laying on my right side (the side I got pierced).
So I had to GET UP and run down stairs (because my momma was using the upstairs bathroom) && clean my ear. I had a tad-bit of blood...just a tad.

In other news...

After waking up at like 6:50-somethin this morning I couldn't go back to sleep. So I started wondering what was an Edina Hornet. (BTW I have an Edina Hornets shirt I sleep in that I never stopped to wonder where it came from or who or what it was.) So I went on google and found that there is an entire school somewhere in Edina, Minnesota named Edina High School. They're supposedly BEASTS in anything sport. But my thought is, how did I get this shirt? I've never been anywhere near Minnesota. HECK I live in St.Louis! IDK. I'm guessin they did really good in sports a couple years back and word travelled around THE ENTIRE NATION and thats how I got the shirt. I got the shirt I think when I was still in elementary school. It seems like we were in a Wal Mart and I like "fell in love with the shirt"...at Wal Mart. (cough-cough DIRTY) So yeah, I think that's how I got my very own Edina Hornets t-shirt. LOL.

Trip ain't Trippin

This man is by far THE GREATEST RAPPER ALIVE.

1. Dude can rap his BUTT OFF
2. He's Christian (a TRUE Christian. He just don't "believe in God")

I remember the first time I heard his last album (20/20) I loved every song. A little while later I got my iPod for Christmas and bought the WHOLE album off of iTunes. And now Trip Lee has done it again. Another AMAZING album! I like rappers that actually "say sum"...ya know? Trip Lee is a TRUE CHRISTIAN RAPPER. He ain't fakin, he ain't tryna be in with the in crowd. And he not scared to say he in love with Jesus Christ. That's Awesome!!!

My favorite song off album so far!

Yall bettah recognize.

Love at FIRSTsight?

How can a person love someone they don't even know? How can you say you love me? "Love at first sight" is not real. In fact, its called "being intrigued". That's all. You were just amazed or in awe of they're appearance. You don't know anything about that person except for how they look. IDK. It bothers me when people say "I loved you the first time I saw you" blah!blah!blah! No you didn't! 
The only reason why God loved us is because he made us and knew who we were. In fact: My bible my bible says: before I formed you in the womb I knew you (Jeremiah 1:5). He knows who we are before we are even conceived. He KNOWS us. That's why he loves us. A person on the street doesn't know who you are. He just saw your face or whatever you were showing on the street.
Now don't get me wrong, I do believe in love, just not at first sight.

Tuesday Inspiration

 

Every Tuesday I'll do an "Enlightenment post". It may be music, it may be quotes. Idk. You'll know what it is when it gets posted.

Lesson Learned

One thing I always struggle with is the couage to keep going. It's like, anytime I feel any type of pressure, I'm ready to stop. That's not a good habit. Matter of fact, that's a TERRIBLE habit. But I don't like to fight. It doesn't matter if it's physical, mental, or verbal. I DON'T WANNA FIGHT. This year, I joined my school track team. Track is a very demanding sport. It takes up all of your time. Once you join, it's like, everything you do is centered around running. I HATED the work out. But after practice, I would feel so good, even though I was sore.
I had to learn how not to give up. I learned that, being tired doesn't give you a reason to stop. Sometimes I would be running, and my legs would be tired and my chest would hurt, and mouth would be dry, and sometimes I'd get dizzy. But I didn't stop. Sometimes...ALL THE TIME, I would be nervous before a meet. And I would be itchin to get out of the race because I was scared that I wouldn't make it, or that I would be behind the crowd. But when I would start runnin, every fear that I had had vanished. And I was no longer nervous. All I was thinking about was getting ahead of my opponent. Then, the next thing I know I'm leading the crowd or it's me and one other person FIGHTING for first place. I loved running and I knew that i couldn't stop. Because if I stopped, everybody behind would pass me up. And that's when I'd lose. Because I stopped and I didn't pass the finish line. You can't just stop in the middle of a race. Coming in 6th place doesn't make you a loser. Quitting does. I'd rather come in last, than not finish a race.
Track has been more of a mataphoric lesson for me. I may not be the fastest or strongest runner on the team. And that's okay. I believe God was teaching me a lesson. He was telling me not to quit, because quitting makes you a loser. You never know how good you may be at whatever you're afraid of. The key is trying even if you're scared: DON'T QUIT. Me and my relay team won a medal! FIRST PLACE! I rememeber worrying about that race. Thinking I wasn't good enough. Thinking I would slow the team down. But I did alright. I'm so proud of myself. I learned not to give up. That's something I struggle with:GIVING UP. I think I give up because, I fear that I won't be good enough. So I just stop. I think, "if I don't do it, I can't be bad at it. I can't mess up." But, God has shown me that, giving up is worser than not trying. You don't know what'll happen. Just have faith that you can make it. Have faith that you are good enough.

I just love this man's body art.
It goes with him :D

Cut off jeans shorts

So I  think I'm gonna cut me up some shorts. I been needin some anyway and seein as I still don't have a job, I don't have any money go to buy some. But I was thinkin, should I cut them to the length I want so they'll have that "frayed" look. Or should I cut them longer and fold them up shorter. IDK. Either way, they'll still be "destroyed denim", or should I do "repaired denim"? Huh.! So many decisions to make. IDK. Maybe I'll just cut up two pairs of jeans that way I'll have both. IDK.

Here are some ideas.

Cut off fold shorts from Hollister

Cut off frayed shorts from Pacsun

I think I like these better from Pacsun

Musica

I like music. Matter of fact, I love music. Music can make you happy, it can make you sad, angry, depressed. And this is without the words, just the instruments them self can cause changes in emotions.
&& I feel like, people who say they love music but only listen to hip hop or rock or what ever, don't love music. Because a true music lover loves all types of music. My iPod has all the main music genres: Gospel of course, hip hop, r&b/pop, and and even rock. I love music! And if I hear a song that I like, I'm not ashamed to put it on my iPod because of the type of music it is. Why should I ? It's MY iPod. Mine. You can see anybody on my playlist from Fred Hammond to Eminem. From Nicki Minaj to P!nk. It doesn't matter! I-LOVE-MUSIC!
idk. I guess I just wanted to inform those who thought they were music lovers.
lol.

Discouraged...

So just a few minutes ago I was on this girls page (who ii DO NOT LIKE...at all) She was talm'bout track on her page. One thing I can TRULY say about myself is that I'm not a hater. If you a beast, then you a beast. This girl is soooo dope on that dawg-on-track. && I just found out that she run the 4! OH MY GOD that's my race! This means that I'll have to compete with this girl to get a spot on the 4x400, or even the open 4<---which I hate because you gotta start on blocks. UGH. Lord ii need YOU right now. Like right now...cuz I don't think I'm good enough. I just started runnin my junior year. Now I'm going to be a senior with only one year of experience runnin against girls who been runnin since birth. Ion't know. I'm really thinkin about not even runnin this year. I run a 1:13. That's HECKA slow. The girl I was talm'bout runna 57...57 seconds! Huhhhh!! I can't do it....I can not do it. I don't think I'm good enough. Ohhhh God please carry me on the track this season...an NO injuries. Please.

Nas & Damian Marley- Africa must Wake Up

I think this album is widely underlooked. Radiostations constantly try and hide the REAL music. This few songs I've acually heard by these two are actually saying something.
Look forward to me posting more by these two.

LIAR

How could you be such a LIAR?
I asked you

That's the only thing I think about now when I see you're "innocent" face
You trust your friends over me?
Your OWN FLESH&&BLOOD?
How did you get this way?
Who did this to you?
You lied to me...
You lied?
I'm in S H O C K

S H O C K
I don't understand why you would lie about that
Why would you lie about that?
Because I make you feel guilty?!
You should feel guilty!
 YOU LIED!!!
 You think lying will make the guilt go away?
NO!
Now you got TWO things to be guilty about...

He is an amazing lyricist. I like when rappers actually can rap. I would say Eminem is a poet. Not your average rapper who talks about "gettin money && girls"

New Stuff!!!

Over the weekend ii got my "tragus" pierced! It didn't hurt all that bad. It was really quick. The worst part was when he was putting in the earring and taking out the needle. He kept pulling on my ear!

Yesterday...Sunday...Father's Day

My daddy bought a new game for the PS2. Yeah I know we still havn't upgraded.
But anyway...it's called Urban Reign. Now I have something to take my boredom  out on.

It's fun...but I'm gonna have to take some time to used to the controls. The main character...Brad...likes to stagger when he gets hit...EXTREMELY nerve racking.
