Have I ever told u

Have I ever told u?


I went to NY this weekend I had a great time. Even though my room faced ground zero. I had a great time. ..

Friday Night saw the roots @ Radio City. I had the best damn time.
The roots coming down the middle aisle like a marching band, Black Thought on the Bull horn doing “Duck Down”. Priceless… Angelique Kidjo, Dave Chapelle, Erykah Badu, Mos Def, Slum Village, Jazzy Jeff on the 1’s and 2’s, Bilal had me screaming “Sometimes” J’Davey was interesting, and the Encore with Jay-Z doing the Encore.. has my little brother hating me… I wish I could show you the text messages I was sending and the evil ones he sent me back!!! The runt I gave an Ipod and helped raise is mad I saw JayZ live for 2.5 seconds lol.

I saw my bestfriend from HS for the first time in 10 years. He tells me I haven’t aged. It was great. (Here’s your change…..) HAHAH! )

We still can’t figure out why Puffy is still overlooking the city in times square.. that shit is a bit scary

I saw my grandma… got calluses on my feet walking through the East Village, played pool with my sister from another mother and her Fiance.. (I love these people! I don’t think I’ve ever told them that. Their relationship is beautiful!!!!) Plus I don’t know if we can call what we did playing pool. But I had fun regardless (

Can someone please tell me… Why there were people at Ground Zero at 2am?? I mean I had to walk past it to get to the 24hr joint down the street from the Hilton.. but uhm… This lady had her son out there.. he was laying on the ground leaning on a pole, while his momma is walking around looking at the hole that once was two towers.. Maybe she lost people there.. I don’t know.. But that shit was weird for me to see.

I couldn’t stand around there too long.. I feel the sadness coming from the area.. It doesn’t feel good for me..


I saw my dad.. haven’t seen him in like 5 years.. that was also interesting.. got me to thinking on the way back home.. How I this child with two A++ personality parents am achieving nothing.. then I concocted this great scheme..

Cuz in all reality.. I want a career.. But I am well at many things, writing, singing, soapmaking, design the list goes on… But my loves are writing and music. And while my singing may not garner me the career I want. I’d rather really be an underground artist. I want my own label. Really. I want to be a songwriter.. (will update that in like 2 weeks.. I’m working on some thangs)
But I was thinking… I didn’t have a career.. and from the time I left NY till like Wednesday it’s been pressing on me.. that I should check out Entertainment Law… I don’t know where that one came from… but I am seriously considering it. REALLY!

I am never sure which of these impressions to follow but the past few months I’ve gotten two that have pressed on me for weeks at a time. One is an album. From Title to song concepts. The whole thing came to me.. The other is this Law school mess.. And I really can’t call it mess. It’s a great idea. So I’ve been researching it. If I go, I want to go to cali. Which means one small detail.. finishing my undergrad.. no sweat. So in August.. It’s back to school. Then I’m serious… I’m working on going to law school.

How random am i? but hey look… im really trying to make my body care line, my writing and my career needs fall into line together.. in the greater scheme of things.. I think it all works out… right now I’m just now sure how…

I WAS TRYING SO HARD TO GET TO THAT DAMN CONCERT!

a guy friend and i were discussing that concert as soon as we saw the tickets go on sale. girl, that was one of the moments that reminded me of why i wanted to live up north (or at the very least, closer to nyc). did black thought and mos def perform 'double trouble'?

as far as the career goes, i feel your pain. i've been doing volunteer work in hopes of finding out what i really want to do. right now i'm languishing in computer hell.
