Antigua General Elections 2014

So two days ago there was the Antigua & Barbuda General Elections (ABGE). There was mostly a choice between 2 parties: United Progressive Party (UPP) and the Antigua & Barbuda Labour Party (ABLP). There were other smaller independent parties but I do believe they were there for Kicks and Giggles (well not really).
 

So as soon as the polls closed and all that could vote had voted, the counting had begun. As the night wore on the numbers began rolling in. Some members of the UPP were ahead of the ABLP and vice versa however in the end it turned out that ABLP had won. ABLP pulled through with 14 seats and UPP with 3 seats.

Now I will say congratulations for the ABLP. You have bombarded us with as much billboards as the highways in the entire USA just to make sure to stay current and let us stay aware that it is time for a change. Yes, 2014 is the year of change so far, so I was not too surprised that they won. I must say congratulations again.



However my only pet peeve with this entire thing is how people are reacting. People are going on like the have won the Cold War or something. They also have a very child like spirit to their party having won over the other. Calling on radio stations saying "Tek dat in ya neh nen!" Some people are saying that the supporters of the UPP are sore losers but if they have supporters of the new government being so rude and childish of course they will react a certain way.

I am just ready for this entire thing to blow over and see if they truly deserve their spot as the Government of the state of Antigua & Barbuda. I will now wait for Carnival to commence in its full and vibrant way.

Congratulations to ABLP once again and I hope you do your supporters and our nation proud.

WORDS/THOUGHTS HAVE POWER

So I was talking with a friend of mine and trying to get her into my frame of mind in regards to my social life. Giving her scenarios of what may have triggered the reactions that I give off today. It didn't work because as she says everyone goes through something like that. I kinda wanted to scream and start crying because I just want someone to understand. But of course I just gave up and ended that attempt. My thinking however is always a negative and highly cautious process. I would like someone and then dismiss my feelings saying the person is most definitely taken or not attracted to me. I would feel good about myself and gesture or comment from someone could through my mind in a whirlwind of negative thought which will make me feel worthless and ugly. Sometimes no one has to do anything I would just feel worthless and ugly. These feelings used to be kept at bay by my being always in the social company of others. But then now that I am by myself most of the time my thoughts are just driving me mad. Shoot I used to have suicidal thought when I was younger and they are coming back with a vengeance.

I know there is a psychological explanation for how I feel and what I am experiencing now but how I see it is I am kind of stuck between a rock and a hard place. Where my mind giving off the negative and cautious thoughts and what I can and actually do. I want to do so much things but the words that I say or the thoughts that I have are just toxins and viruses destroying everything in it's path. Socially I feel stuck, career-wise I feel stuck, family I feel stuck. And I am now always by myself just to think which is making me crazy. I would want to invite people into my space but fear of rejection or a possible negative reaction causes me to keep to myself.

So I guess I have placed myself in a lose-lose situation. I needed to let these thoughts out and I know very few people, if anyone at all, will read this. So this is just a strange thought process that goes through my head.

A friend of mine had told me of this Anime called XXXHolic and one of the episodes mentioned how words and thought have power. Only when you stop saying those harmful words or stop making other person's harmful words affect you will you be free and enjoy life. So hopefully one day these thought will slip away and I will feel a bit better.

I had also spoken to a coworker and we also discussed that just like how you can zone out certain things, the ability to not take words and thought personally  and take the power away from them.

OXXO

Mayeshah!!!

Can I do that? No, I can't!!

So my sister and I were talking and we were talking about the situation that the lack of a car is making things quite difficult for us. There is also a situation with the person who was supposed to fix the said car and he is not proving himself worthy.

My sister then stated that she read somewhere that Aquarians dont like people saying they can do something and in the end they prove that they cannot. If they are unable to do something just say that they can't. Instantly my mind started racing because .... I am one of those people.



I am ashamed of it but I have bean told always try. I have also been delegated tasks that I know that I cant do but just to take the weight off of other people I have not turned it down. I am presently in that situation and I know I should just address the people and apologize but I am so nervous of the reaction. I know I will have to face them eventually but I am not ready yet.



So I am the type of person that my sister does not like. But I know I was not like this at birth and was conditioned to be this way from something. How am I gonna handle this?? I noticed after this move there are lots of things about me that my sister does not like in people but I try to change just to make life easier. OK when I say lots I mean a few that my brain does not want to conjure up because it is weird like that.

I know they say people should accept you for who you are but when you don't know who you are you have a tendency to try and be what other people want you to be. That is one of the reasons why I chose to work in the industry I am in but now I realize that I need to be a solid well found person.So now I am even more lost.

If there was only a reset button.

Well there isn't so oh well.

Dirty Deeds (2005) full movie

Alright so this is the second movie for the ... morning? day? yea you know what I mean. I tend to suffer from Insomnia when I dont feel I get the chance to do what I wanna do.



So I am a sucker for American High School Movies. This was just a great icing on top of the cake kinda movie. It reminded me of Slum Dog Millionaire where just the randomist things happen at the right time.



Because I am bias and it is my blog and me watching movies I will give this movie a 9/10. It would have been a full 10/10 if there werent so much scenes where I was worried and had to look away.

The Figure

So I do not see myself as a poet but something came to me a few days ago and I didnt want to let it pass me by.

As morning sounds of birds rise me from deep slumber
I look to my side and see a figure which is not common to my everyday scenery
As recognition flickers into my foggy awareness
I smile remembering last night
Watching the motion of this figure mesmerizes me 
For a minute feel like I am in a dream
Feeling the rise and fall of its chest like the ocean
Then its eyes open and sees me watching
Such a gentle creature it  is
Gentle and peaceful
Learning everything about me
Awareness is present in its eyes 
I wonder what it is thinking about
No words need to be said this morning 
All the words were said last night
It turns its back towards me 
I watch the sight of its back 
I close my eyes 
Replaying the entire evening in my mind
Getting to know each other better
I open my eyes and this figure was gone.
My dreams are becoming way to vivid now.
This figure was almost real.

I have to say I have made some alterations (no not some, ALOT) but This is what I shall settle with.

Blaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!

Moved out and more responsibility at work.

I have finally moved out of my childhood home and I am loving it!!!!



Not that I didn't enjoy the perks of living in the family home and all, the free food, free transport, free internet, free laundry/cleaning services. I just needed the free-dom. That is one thing I felt was lacking. So now that I have moved in with my big sis everything is at peace.

Well it was until our transport decided to go on the fritz this long holiday weekend. WHHHHYYY!!!!!?????



So now we have to wait on my father to pick us up and drop us where ever!!!

If I knew this was liable to happen I would have invested in a "CAR MAN". You know the kind of man that all teenage girls want. I heard almost all the girls in my high school raving about this "Car Man" not understanding the big deal about it. But now that I want to go places and have my freedom I can't; and I don't even have a "Car Man".

But such is life. In time I will own my own vehicle and not depend on anyone for all this shit.


I have also been quite busy at work. I am now working as a Human Resources Assistant/ Payroll Clerk. When I tell them that they say, "you making all the money now".


But hopefully soon.

Well I will soon have pics of my place and will share it with the world. MUHAHAHAH and then start planning my house warming party which will come with some more pictures :D

Well I gonna finish chilling online and then head on home since tomorrow will be an internet free zone. Maybe I should top up my phone some more. hmmm.

Oh well.

Back In The Day 2005 FULL MOVIE

So I was going through my Watch Later list and I noticed I had this tagged. I decided, why not watch this movie. It started and I saw it had Jah Rule and automatically thought this gonna be cheesy as hell. But then the movie progressed and I saw some other actors and actresses that were familiar to me.



By 30mins into the movie I started wondering wtf am I watching I should stop.  But then the plot thickened like flour in a soup! So I continued watching and was like ... seriously why am I watching this??



Guess what the plot thickened some more. I was like you know what my whole attention is caught. So by the end of this movie I was like OMMMGGGG I CANT BELIEVE THIS!!! I am so happy I continued watching!!!



I would give this movie a 7/10. I would have given it a 10/10 but it had its cheesy elements and even though it was made in 2005 it seemed something closer to 2000 or even the nineties.



So I would say watch it when you just want a good heart felt, this is what family is about kinda flick.

New Place

MOVING ON UP!! TO THE EAST SIDE!! TO A DELUXE HOUSE ON A HILL!!! MOVING ON UP!! TO THE EAST SIDE!! WE FINALLY GOT A PIECE OF THE PIE!!!!!!!!!!

LOL

So I am moving out of my childhood home. Moving to a location which I think is quite nice. Close to the airport, close to a shopping district, and with a great view of the Ocean (or sea). This is something that I have been looking forward to for the past few years. Not that I don't enjoy living with my parents but at a certain age a person just has to leave their parents and start living their lives!! Be independent.

So the house is really nice. A two bedroom house with a front yard and a small back yard. Two tanks so we don't need to depend on Government water, a small shed in the back of the house  and a really nice sized living area and kitchen.

Pictures are on its way so you would be able to see how awesome this place looks. So Next week Saturday I will be living in my new abode! Which is soo exciting. I am even going to plan a house warming party but that would be a little later because we need to get the place looking great!

So far 2014 is really becoming a time of change.

P.S.: I did this post before I had done the previous one but this was put up as a draft. dag nabbit!!!! 

What are you Anxious about?

I am part of this organization called the ToastMasters Antigua Club which helps members enhance their Public Speaking and Leadership Skills. I have been a member for almost a year now (or something like that) and I have only reached my second speech. I reach much further in my Leadership skill training but that is if I am prepared. Yesterday I found out I was the Host of the evening (Toastmaster) and I wasn't PREPARED. I automatically started to freak out and began having a anxiety attack (not the hyperventilating kind but the kind where I start to shake and cry).

How EMBARRASSING!! I tried to go through with it but I just couldn't stop crying so I had to change roles.

I never knew I actually suffered from Anxiety Attacks until yesterday and looking back at past experiences when I am very anxious about something I get like that.


When I was in university I had a course where I had to be the Sous Chef for a restaurant. The planning and everything was easily completed. The Professor was very impressed by my planning skills but when it came to implementing I began to freak out and all my plans basically went down the drain.

That was one of the reasons I got a B in the class.

This Anxiety also affects me in stressful situations at work. At the reception I would be overwhelmed and it is like my brain shuts down and I am uncertain of what I can and cannot do. When there are 10-20 persons in front of you waiting to check in, you have the phone ringing, people coming to you for keys or information. I automatically shut down.

THIS IS NOT GOOD!

So the next question is how to control this so that I can be a better speaker and leader?

Well there are many ways which I will attempt to share with you over the next few ... weeks? days? months? We will see how this works out.

The first one I may mention is DRUGS.

They have so many drugs out there  that can help you relax. Marijuana, Zoloft (I think that is the name) are used to calm the nerves, make you more relaxed but one of them is not legal and the other might become addicting. Soo I do believe that it is not the best choice when it comes to becoming a better speaker and leader.

So please stay tuned for the next installment of: "What are you Anxious about?"

OXXO

Mayeshah!!!

I just wanted to rant.

So... Tonight I got to the state of drunkness where I was sober enough to speak my mind and drunk enough to not care. However it seems like you must always care. One thing I learnt from a roommate of mine: Do what you want the ppl who care about it dont matter and the ppl who dont care are the ones who hang around.

I noticed when I am drunk I act like the roommate where she does what she has to do, whether it is curse someone for slightly pissing her off or just giving hugs because her spirit takes to you because you are cool. I enjoy this state of mind because you are able to sober up and step back and see differently from when you are sober.

Tonight I cried because I needed to. Tonight was the night that I needed to ball up in the fetal position and cry my eyes out. Wishing I had someone to rub my back and whisper to me that everything is fine but you just need to let these feelings out because even though you act strong you are as weak as a baby (puppy, kitten, kid). Weak!!! I dont know how to act. I always have to act the right way around certain ppl when in truth I just wanna act like me. I dont know who I am because I am not allowed to act like me. :(

Certain situations I just want to end it all. Just end it all. Whether it be dagger, pills or just liquid. Let it blur everything out until it is gone. Until I am gone.

I want to cry again. How could I feel this way. How could I feel this darkness in my soul. How can someone anyone make me feel so worthless and so ... unworthy. I am not dark enough, i am not light enough. I am not slim enough, I am not fat enough. I am not smart, artistic, unique enough. So I try. I try to be someone that I wish I was but never will be. But when I am who I am I am told to stop. I see who I want to be but I am told: NO!!! Be who I say to be even though I dont say what to be.

I am done.... they say music is the truth, well Linkin Park's Numb is what I am. I am to numb to give a shit when I am in this state. Soo numb that I dont know who I am, want to be, should be. I try to be what I wanna be but I will always be seen as wrong.

I try to let ppl in but they always want to fix me or dont even care. I just want someone to care. Please care. The thoughts of Papa Roach's Last Resort is come to mind but I know there is more. Some more. Some where. But I am not sure if here.

I. Am. Done.

Travel Insurance

When I went to Ireland for St. Paddy's day with some friends of mine while studying in Leeds, I was advised to purchase Travel Insurance. I admit anything can happen while you are abroad and in a country you have never been before but I didn't see the purpose of my having one. However, just today I was looking at a few hotels in Rhode Island (one of which was being promoted by a hotelier who taught me in JWU) and I checked out their policies. I saw a segment for Travel insurance and they mentioned that you would be able to use your travel insurance to cover your stay or the cancellation fees if anything should happen.

OHHHH.....

Now I understand what else Travel Insurance is used for and I believe that is great cause I have encountered a few persons who had to stay over in the resort that I work in because they developed an ear infection and had to stay longer. Travel Insurance probably would be able to cover the payment for that situation.

The segment on Travel Insurance on the hotel's website directed you to a website called InsureMyTrip. Upon looking at it and testing out to check out what kind of quotes are being offered it seems quite legit and gives you some great options.



So to avoid being stranded, injured or mother nature dealt you a bad hand. Make sure you purchase your Travel Insurance before you travel. Remember Murphy??? He remembers you!!!!

More Music Rock!!

 I fell in love with that group and then found out they were a Christian group and I felt quite happy cause you can have Christmas music without saying God, Jesus, Father, Son, or Holy Ghost. Some other favourites are seen below: Ok I gone now lol

Music - Alot of Videos

So I have noticed that some of my best memories have revolved around music. I can transport myself from one place to another just by listening to something. I do believe that is why I am not very into listening to music from the region. I dont get transported far enough. An example of this is when I went to visit my brother and he had to take me to work with him. I was in primary school and because I never really spent alot of time with my brother alone like that he wasn't too sure of my ability to keep still and so on. SO while he was working I was listening to my music. One song I remember listening to was Yellow by Coldplay: This song brought me to England and I just loved how it soothed me. I don't even know of I had been to England that much for it to comfort me so. There is also bands like Wheatus, Sum 41, and Blink 182 which made me feel like I was a teenager in America. I know that all Teenagers in America are not the same but this is what I understand about them.
I was really uncomfortable growing up because I always felt that I didnt blend in. While people were listening to Dancehall and Reggae, even Soca I was listening to this:

 Then when I noticed alot of persons were listening to Rap, R&B and Hip-Hop and I must admit that it is a genre that I do enjoy. Especially Floetry, Jill Scott, Erykah Badu, and Lauryn Hill:

R&B like this made me feel like I was in Brooklyn, Atlanta or the "ghetto" parts of London. My favourite which always kept me quiet was Heavy Metal which is one of the things which made me stand out from everyone else. I was a lover of Linkin Park, Papa Roach, Limp Bizkit, Disturbed. They were very dark, and that is how I felt while growing up. Evanescence and Seether were good that that and dont even forget Korn.

 DID I MENTION I AM A BIG FAN OF MARILYN MANSON!!! One group which I was very skeptical about was System of A Down because in this song they mentioned "...Angels Deserve to Die..." but then when I borrowed the album from a friend I noticed that it said "...I Cry When Angels Deserve to Die...". Songs like this had a message which to everyone means different things. This group is Armanian and some of their songs have hints of their background which I find is very interesting.

  I just wanted to get out of here. I then got away and my music kept me safe and alive. But I didnt take my escape to the best advantages that I could have had. I do remember how music has played an awesome part of my being away. When I was in RI I had gone to a few bars which had local bands, and the club scene had great music. I have also done many long walks with music serenading me. When I went to Leeds I would always have on my radio and that just kept me calm and at bay. Sometimes music depicted the type of relationships I wanted where it was alot of hanging out and chilling which occasional M.O.S. Just being comfortable with a guy with no fears of the only reason he may be interested is to get into my knickers (I do prefer this over "panty").

 Music videos do play a great deal in my enjoyment of the song. In Drive by Incubus, it is a very simple video but artistic nevertheless.

 However in The Reason, Hoobastank was way more dramatic and action based. This is truly one of my favourite videos:

Foo Fighters always did something interesting like this:

Music has played a mega role in who I am today and I dont regret most of that. Some days I dont mind listening to some tunes that blatantly state that they want sex but songs that can make me think and allow me to apply it to my situation is always my preference. Makes me comfortable with who I am. Seriously, If I were to put a song from all the bands that I love you would never leave my page (which I dont mind, I enjoy your company)but I guess you have something productive to be getting done.

Blogathon

So it appears there is a Blogathon going on in which the resort I work for is taking part in along with other resorts on and off island. When I saw that the blogger was coming in yesterday I was like that is cool. But today, I had to find out who this person is. SOOO .. I found out the person's name and then turned to my friend Google, who was of great and immense help to me (being Google and all). I came across his blog, his twitter, Insta-gram, Pinterest, Google+ and LinkedIn. Take about the power of the internet. MUHAHAHAHAHAHA

So I first checked out the blog (Travel With a Mate) and read some of his blog posts and felt that pang of Wander-lust hit me hard. Then Checked out his Twitter and saw that he loves us. The first post I saw was "Best omelettes in Antigua they said. Very tasty! Like a big cheese sandwich made of egg!! " Which had a pic of his omelette. I must admit here has a mean ass omelette, my sister and I came here on a day pass just before I started working here and I fell in love with this place at that moment.

So I clicked the pic and couldnt get through on Insta-gram on my computer so I tried my phone which worked (I started following him of course) and saw his omelette and his room when he first came. His Google+ is quite lacking due to the face that no one ever uses Google+ anyways but all his blog posts can be found there.

He is a travel photographer which makes it real easy for him to be doing this and I think I wouldnt mind doing this one day. But as with everything you have to start somewhere.

Well he and his wife will be leaving the property tomorrow and I will be looking to see if I can see them before they leave. That would be great.

Signs of Love Making- 2014

Ladies ladies plz dnt forget SIGNS OF LOVEMAKING novembr 22nd DIAMOND ICE NIGHTCLUB tktz $40.00 $60.00 @da door ......... A male.exotic show like no other dont miss it NYC HOLLYWOOD.... JAMAICAN SENSATION AND APOLLO CURVE one stage one night LADIES ONLY EVENT .....LOTS OF PRIZEZ TO B WON AND LOTS OF TRICKS TO LEARN .........can u tell me 25 ways to use a strawberry becuz thy sure can ..... fr tkts n more info

LADIES the day is now here for SIGNS OF LOVE MAkING .....DIAMOND ICE NIGHTCLUB doors open at 8 showtime 10 .those ladies who hve not bought tkts yet ill be in twn call and come collect plz .... befre 5 tkts sales stop at 5:00pm $60 at the door

So these are the messages I have been receiving for the past few weeks. And then tonight was the big night where NYC HOLLYWOOD, JAMAICAN SENSATION AND APOLLO CURVE grind their way into everyone's heart. 

NYC Hollywood was the best of the three though. (Just my opinion.) 

SO I have been going to these shows for a while now. (probably since I was 18) and THIS would be my 6th show. One in St. Thomas, one in Leeds England and four here in Antigua. And I have concluded... women do not get enough play. I swear these women were basically drooling over these guys (of course i kept my composure) 

I got the tix through a buy 5 get $25 off special. But then most of my partners in crime bailed on me due to unforeseeable issues.  But I got a few of the tix sold of and got left with this one:

 So  on Facebook I first saw this and then I was bombarded with more eye candy  before the show:

Then they just kept coming and coming and coming. And the views were spectacular. Starting with NYC Hollywood who was like damn!!! Great body, great performance and just downright fine in person.

Then there was Jamaican Sensation, he was ok his act was pretty good but I wasnt feeling him. 

Finally there is Apollo Curve. When he first came out I almost died. Cute, locks, body were on point!!! Did I mention Locks!!! Then he started his act and it was ... meh. I got bored a bit. As my friend and I were discussing we were more focused on the smell of his soap (part of his act) than of his actual performance. 

 But a round of applause goes out to all of these guys for showing us their bodies, moves and penises . Yes, I did say Penises cause I can now say I have seen 3 extra penises and they were pretty impressive.

Oh and all 3 of them had with them these heavy ass chains:

And they all performed with them as well.

The only down fall of the event was the location. Very small and alot of ppl were standing because there were only 2 rows of seats, which made it difficult to maneuver easily.  And then the women, they were gyrating on each other when they should have been watching the show. I know you enjoying the music but I wanna enjoy the view but if you rubbin your ass on me it is quite distracting.

Well I shall head on to bed since I have work in the morning.

P.S. most of the pics above were from the messages I got from the promoter on IM.

This video reminds me that to get good and get better at something you need to fall a few times. You will never be great at anything if you never fall and aim for higher. That is one thing i need to learn. Falling is good, once I get back up and keep on trying.

Reconditioning Through Work

Dear readers,

I have noticed that while growing up you are conditioned to react a certain way to specific situations. Whether these conditions were conditioned through family or friends, this conditioning makes you who you are as an individual. I have some conditions which are very poisonous to my future career if I do not find some way to recondition myself.

I started working at another resort almost 6 months ago and I am unsure if I told you where but it is a really nice resort. I have worked in different departments so far but I am presently working in the Guest Services and although I have made some mistakes (incorrect reactions to situations) this department is the most comfortable since F&B (Food & Beverage). So a few of this mistakes make me look at how I can recondition myself to better the job, the resort and myself.

One mistake that I made was corrected by my coworkers and I was pulled up on it. My instant reaction was to be depressed because I try hard not to make any mistakes and I broke down in tears because I felt that I am incapable of doing the job. My sister informed me that mistakes are inevitable and they will happen often within the first few months because it is new to me. So I have reconditioned my thinking to understand that: Mistakes happen, learn from it.

From that same mistake I kept thinking about it and it was rotting away at how I felt. I was sad, I was worrying about how my coworkers will think of me as incompetent when I go back in, and I was fretting seeing my boss because I felt she thought I was incompetent. I was having nightmares of making the mistake and other mistakes, and I even had a dream that I was being fired. So I discussed this with my sister and she informed me that if I cant do anything about it why lament on it. What is done is done. I have therefore reconditioned my thinking to understand that : Let things go, if you cant do anything about it.  This is one that I need to work on still cause the reason I am doing this post  is because I cannot let my mistake go as yet.

Then my final mistake was basically a slap into reality. I have always been in the mind frame that you need to use your initiative when working. If you can deal with it then do it. Well maybe in some places that is how it should be but not where I work. In order to make as minimal amount of mistakes do not just assume you know. As they say Assume = making an ASS of U & ME. I have make an ass of myself too many times to feel comfortable because I didnt follow this rule religiously. I have reconditioned myself to understand that: it is not wrong to Ask Questions.  Asking questions makes sure that you are clear on everything and unnecessary mistakes are not made.

In order to wrap up I will identify these reconditioning as the MLA of Work. Mistakes happen, Let things go, and Ask Questions. So I shall see what happens when I apply these to my work ethics. If there are any more that I come across I will most definitely do a part 2.

Car Chases

Dear readers,

On my way home from work I was randomly thinking even though there are different car teams in Antigua (i.e. Team Honda, Team Toyota etc) and everyone is sporting up their cars. However there has never been a car chase.

In my 26 (in  a few days) years living living in Antigua I have never heard of a car chase. Yes the island is 108 sq miles and all but are you telling me that no one ever felt they wanted to run from the cops. Or maybe it is the fact that the police are not seeing when ppl doing shit and never actually get the opportunity.

I have witnessed one car chase in my entire life. There was one in Rhode Island in my first year, and the car passed my dorm and right behind him were the police. Then a few hours later I heard that there was a car chase that was in the area and I was like "OMG I Was THERE!!!"

Well, I just got home from work as I stated before and I have already been pissed off for the night due to a few fam issues. OH WELL!!!

Youtube Classic Movie - Porgy and Bess

Hi readers,

Growing up I have heard my mom rave about this movie PORGY AND BESS and I have been so eager to watch it but then I heard recently that the last copy was burnt or something of the sort. I then decided it just wasnt meant for me to watch it. 

Last night when looking for a movie with my darling Sydney Poitier I found Raisin in the Sun (1961) which I am still to read the book lol. Then I looked over on the side and saw what? The movie that my mom has been raving about. Of course I had to watch it. LIKE DUHHH!!! So I put A Raisin In The Sun to wait and watched Porgy and Bess. It was a great movie and the songs were great. The actors voices were just breathtaking. Check it out below:



And just as a lil bonus here is A Raisin In The Sun:

Real Men Guide for Perfect Suit

Good morning readers,

I had came across this link from one of my friends and I have heard and seen situations where men do not wear the right size suit. For some men they need a tailor to get that PERFECT SUIT, while others can just walk into a store and fit all suits perfectly.

Check out the link below:

Classic and Indie movies - STREET DANCE 2 & MY BOYFRIEND IS BACK

Alright, so I have been really busy lately and other than that I have finally found some time to myself to watch a few movies. 

Since my movie partners are either not bothering with me or really busy themselves I am presently resorting to watching movies through... du du du duuuuuuu.... YOUTUBE. 

Now who would have thunk it to put up movies on Youtube?? I noticed this when I was in University and I wanted to watch a movie. I found indie movies, classics, and even a few which their copyright has expired recently. When I came back home a few times I looked up movies with Lucille Ball (love this lady. She was great in "I Love Lucy" and she was even better in her movies) and Sydney Poitier (because of this guy I am convinced that one of my kids will be named Sydney, whether boy or girl and I will have one named after Lucille in some form or another) and I was so happy to watch all that I could find on Youtube. 

So today I was finished watching all of my subscriptions and wanted to watch something. I decided to look at what movies were on Youtube. I went to Movies full 2012 and one that jumped out at me was STREET DANCE 2. I watched it laughed a bit, danced a bit and it made me think about how I let my fears get in the way of my life. So check out below for the full movie (or until they notice and decide to take it down)

Then I came home and saw that there wasnt much to watch so I went to see if there was any 2013 movies. I then saw ...*drumroll* ... MY BOYFRIEND IS BACK. I do remember it being a crazy movie but it made me laugh out loud a few times. Check that out below.

I have now decided to do a little something( I dont know if I said this before but I am gonna try and watch move Youtube movies): I will watch a Classic (tonight was MY BOYFRIEND IS BACK) and an Independent (which this movie has to be cause it looks like a knock off of Step Up) and post them up for you to see. 

Now here is a bit of the Step Up MOVIES:

Draft Posts COMPLETED; SJC

Dear readers,

So now my drafts list is clear (YAY) I can move on to other pressing matters. 

I have been away from my computer due to the mad amount of activities I have been up to. Yesterday (Wednesday) I had treated my sister and mom to a Day Pass at the St. James's Club. "oh Michele has soo much money" ... no I do not on a regular day my bill would have been $904.50 but lucky for me I work for the Elite Company so i get a discount and only spent half of that. 

Which worked out great!!!! 

I used to work there and did not know jack shit about that place. So I took this time to wander around the place like a fool. I took a few pictures but my sis took more. (hoping with crossed fingers that she puts them up whether it is on FB or Blogger) However as soon as I get mine up on the pc I will do an official SJC post :D 

SO from here on out you will ssee some interesting posts or just crazy ish that comes to mind. Muhahahahaha.

Draft Post - HUMANITY

Dear Readers,

I shall be talking about 2 things today, maybe 3 if i am haunted enough. I went to a play last night and was grateful I went. I am also looking through some youtube videos, and I shall not try to describe what they are about but they are good understandings about HUMANITY.

The play I went to walk was When We Are Married. It made me think about marriage in a different light. There are 3 couples who were married on the same day, in the same church, by the same minister and they are celebrating their 25th anniversary. Marie and Joe are married, Herbert and Clara are married and Albert and Annie are married. Marie and Joe are a happy couple and work alongside each other very well and have niece who they invited over for the celebration. Clara is a dominant wife and controls Herbert from what he says to what he does. Albert is a commissioner and is very domineering and treats Annie in the same way.

They were having dinner and this young chap comes to the door and the maid Ruby (a 15 y/o girl) brings him into the living area. Ruby knows that the chap likes Marie and Joe's niece and informed the niece they were he was there. The neice comes in and they scurry of into the night only for the chap to come back because Joe, Herbert and Albert has heard that the chap has been fraternizing with an unidentified girl. The chap is the churches organist and had come upon the minister that married the 3 couples 25years ago. The chap continues to inform the 3 gentlemen (who were giving him a hard time about this rumor) that the minister had sent him a letter informing him that while he was working at the church in which he married the 3 couples he was not an authorized minister. So the 3 couples are not married in truth.

The 3 men begin to freak out because they are very well respected men in the community and had begged the chap to keep it a secret while they try to figure out what to do. They go to the club to discuss this info while the women are in a different room. The chap finds another of the maids out in the corridor listening to the discussion. The women come back into the living area and begin to wonder where the men have went and ask Ruby where they had gone and Ruby asks maid2 and comes back telling them that they went to the club. The ladies are upset and wondering why in heaven they would go to the club on their anniversary. Then the men come inside and then goes into the dining room to continue their discussion. Maid2 comes into the living area informing Marie that she is leaving and Marie tells maid2 that she is no longer required to come back (because maid 2 love back chat too much). So before maid 2 left she informed the ladies what she has heard.


This Video is Stayceyann Chin and she brings out some good points about what people expect. Where it can either be one or another while there is soo many middle grounds that it could be.


This Video is about how humanity does things out of fear,greed, or any other feeling that would coerce you to do something that could be good or evil. Enjoy


I feel kinda guilty but I just figured this post it to read in my state of mind right now. So I hope it makes sense to you. lol.
