I Love New York!!!

It's alot warmer now and the city is just buzzing with greatness, I'm talking shopping, dining, treats, partying I love NY in the summertime, but anyway I was on my way to the store to do some field work and while walking who did I see looking ultra-fab?....one of my all time favorite models Liya Kebede...she had on a white dress and no make up...she is just too gorgeous, much ligther than what we see in the magazines and t.v. I was so upset I didn't have my camera with me.

Model Behaviour Pt 2

For some reason I couldn't get more pics on my last post so I decided to continue in a new on...

Renee



This girl is very negative...every time she opens her mouth I want to slap her...She is very beautiful but beauty from within is what counts. I hope she gets her act together.

Sarah

Photographer turned model...I don't know she seems out of place to me for some reason..

Whitney

Ok you guys I saved my best girl for the last...I lover her. She's the second plus size model with a whole lot of attitude. She is a natural beauty who is confident but it really hasn't been coming out in her photos. I am rooting for her...I don't know if there is a spot for a plus size model but if there is it would be a battle between Whit and Toccara for me...Tocarra is F-A-B-O...lol

Model Behaviour: America's Next Top Model

America's Next Top Model- Season 8

Ok I am a glorified ANTM junkie...it is very serious oh...I mean no one can reach my while the show is on...I get ANTM fever...hehe...Ok so season 8 started with a bang the girls on this season are really bringing it. There are 2 plus size models and of course the one girl that always looks like Tyra...every season there is a particular girl that resembles Tyra who ends up getting kicked off I believe for the only reason she was casted and it is because she looks like Tyra anyway that's my opinion... Well we are up to the 4th episode but I won't dish to much because I think it comes on a bit later in the UK....so I'll just dish about the contestants and what I feel about them...

Brittany

Ok this chick isn't the prettiest but she takes great pictures...the camera really loves her.

Cassandra

All I have to say about this girl is she is on another level because I have never heard of anyone sew a wig to there head...lol

Diana

Plus size beauty from my neck of the woods...can you say curvylicious.

Dionne

She is one of my favorites... love her...she has a great personality.

Felicia

Graceful Beauty...she's also pretty funny.

Jael

Energetic... I like her!!

Jaslene

Feyierce...( in that throaty ghetto pitch tone)

Kathleen

Bubbly and I love her 'fro

For some reason I can't add anymore pictures and I'm tired so I'll continue tomorrow...I know I know I'm supposed to be a junkie right...oh well

Can someone tell me why?

Why is it that NJ transit always has wiring problems that delay my commute to work in the morning?

Why do Indians talk so damn loud?

Why don't they have my size in stock?...I need those shoes

Why haven't I been able to obtain clear, blemish free skin?

Why can't I get a little time to go thread my eyebrows?...I'm giving cookie monster a run for his money...

Why can't my boss be as useful as he is today everyday?

Why do I feel the urge to shop when I know I shouldn't?

Why can't I get perfect abs?

Why am I asking so many questions?

Why do I love shoes so much?...ok I could care less I just do

Why do people try so hard to impress people they don't like?

Why do people judge before they get a chance to see the person for who they are?

Why do I feel mad sleepy right now?

Why are people so phony?

Why can't he realize I never pay attention to a word he says?

Why do people like to hear themselves speak?

Why don't I just go and shop?!!!

The Man Who Loved Me First

Yesterday marked three years that the most important man in my life went to be with the Lord. I must say the phrase " time heals all wound..." is quite true. I wouldn't say it heals all wounds but it definately does make it better. Yesterday was the first time we all went and felt a sense of peace, thanksgiving, and calm. We didn't cry, we didn't feel pain, we instead felt thanksgiving in our hearts. I am just thankful to God for bringing my family to this point in our lives. That day three years ago, I could not see beyond, I had no idea what the future held, I felt lost, confused, dazed, angry, weak. My worst nightmare of losing a parent just hit me and it hit me hard. Now as I look back and see how far we have come I thank God. We are healthy, strong and He has done so much in our lives. Not a day goes by that I don't think of my dad. Sometimes when things are quite rough I imagine what it would have been like if he were still here.
He was my hero, he would do anything for his children. He always made us feel like we were the most important people in the world. To him we were his light, his reason to go on....and I loved him. If we asked for something he would do anything in his power to get it for us, he spoiled us...I remember when we were alot younger he would gives us five bucks each time we laid our beds...hehe. I am thankful for the sweet memories I have of my daddy. I thank God I was lucky enough to have him as my father. I will continue to do whatever I can to make him proud. I want to do great things and dedicate them to his memory...I always felt safe when he was around, he was my knight in shining armour. Tears are welling up now not because I am sad but because I am touched by his undying love for us his family. The day he died I had that last chance to say "I love you" in that special way that only we had it was like our own little secret handshake...
Everyone knew him for one specific characteristic..." he was a gentle man..."
He was big and intimidating when you first met him but he was my "gentle giant"...he always appreciated the little things we did, even when I thought it would go unnoticed...I loved him and I still do... he was the first man to love me and he was the first man I ever loved. It pains me sometimes when I feel he should be here to see things I have accomplished, but I know he is with me in spirit. It brings tears to my eyes to think he won't be there to walk me down the aisle when I eventually get married, but I know he will be by my side.
To the people who have kept me and my family in mind, and who called yesterday or sent me a message I appreciate you guys and I love you loads...I thank God for friends like you and I pray that God will bless you and your families abundantly.
To the man who loved me first you are gone but never forgotten, I love you and always will...
