legaaalll. =)

So I've been 21 since September 3rd. & at first the only joy if that was buying liquor whenever I wanted to. BUT as of this last past weekend, it has been soo fun. It was my best friends birthday & boy did we celebrate. We went to four clubs that weekend. Lavo, Cherry, Blue Martini & Aruba. I was soo faded at Cherry & Aruba. Like really feeling myself. Had guys buying me drinks. Omg, I'm really digging this life now. It feels good not seeing the same faces everytime we go out. & yu dnt have to worry about if the party is gon get shot up or not. LOL. But I really can't wait to see what else is in store. =)

STOP THE VIOLENCE!; R.I.P. DERRION ALBERT!

this is a real serious problem going on between our people today, that needs to have a STOP put onto it ASAP. everytime we turn around, there goes another one of our black men knocked down. & there are certain people that love to see it happen. this is a movement that needs to brought upon our attention, so we can realize whats really going on in the world today. KEEP THE PEACE & PLEASE STOP THE VIOLENCE!

"Dear Young Warriors fighting the wrong wars! Killing each other is definitely played out. Being hurt from the loss of a love one was never cool.

Dear Young Warriors fighting the wrong war! I know that feeling, that frustration with life and needing to take it out on someone, anyone. But….

We chose the dumbest things to go the hardest for. I remember seeing deaths over 8 ball jackets, fila’s, and name plate chains. Deaths over “he say she say”!!!!! “I’m from This block or I’m from that block,” or “my moms n pops is f*cked up now the whole world gotta pay!!!”

I remember feeling like I was the hardest “n*gga” breathin. And I couldn’t wait to prove it. 
But let’s think. What r we really proving?? And proving what to who?? Everybody knows Chicago breeds the strongest of the strong but I just feel, me, being ya brother from another state, feel your pain as if I grew up with you in ya very own household.

You have the ability and mindpower to change the way we are looked at. Look who’s watching us young warriors, look who’s throwin us in jail constantly, look at the ignorance in the world. Look at the racist dogs who love to see us down. Lovin to bury us in the ground or in jail where we continue this worthless war on one another. Young warriors…. We are WASTING more and more time. We gotta get on our jobs and take over the world. Cuz this movie left the theaters years ago, Juice, Menace, Boys n the Hood, Blood n Blood Out, Belly!

When we see each other why do we see hatred? Why were we born in a storm, born soldiers, WARRIORS….and instead of building each other up we are at war with each other.. May the soul of this young person find peace with the Almighty. I’m with you young warriors. You’re me and I’m you. But trust me! You are fighting the wrong war.

This sh*t sucks !!"

searching HARD!

OMG, the internet should be tired of my ass. LOL. Ive been searching so hard for MakeUp Artisty schools, including in California. I found a couple out there BUT the cost of living is a BITCH. Like seriously $1000 plus for a one bedroom apartment. They cant be serious. But i did get a little lucky last night when i found "James Albert School of Cosmetology" which isnt open yet. I called & they said give it another month. Im like really crossing my fingers for this one. This is something that i have become really passionate about. & one of my sister asked me a question that i think really opened my eyes to it. She said, "Would you do makeup for free?" & i replied yes. If you can honestly answer that question with a YES, then i think thats your destined dream.

via www.professionalmakeup.blogspot.com was a list of

'How To Choose A Good Makeup School'

-Look for an establishment that will offer you smaller class sizes.

-Ask them, are they using the latest techniques in training?

-Are their instructors makeup artists crurrently working in the industry?

-Do they offer a field work program?

-What are the tuition costs? Are they affordable? Can they recommend financing options?

cosmo school. =)

So ive been thinking about going to cosmetology school these last couple of days. And it seems like thats the only thing thats going to excite my working life. Like who in their right mind wants to work a regular nine to five the rest of their life, NOT I! LOL. But i lowkey wish i wouldve went to VoTech, because all of that would have been done and over with by now. SUCKS, i know. Im still young so i have the time. So come January 2010 i will be attending cosmetology school. Reason for waiting so long to start is because i dont want to just hop into anybody's school. I want to take my time & get to check out how each school looks & learns. So by the time i graduate, i feel that i have learned and hopefully beyond everything that i needed to know.

Buuuttt, there is a UGH part about it. I really dont want to do the manicure & pedicure part. Like i seriously just want to go for hair & make up. I dont know for sure, but it seems like before a photo shoot i dont think models get to get mani's & pedi's. LOL. Welp, if thats something i have to do to get closer to my dream. I guess i have to just sacrifice that time & get through what ever i need to do. Because I WILL be doing hair & make up for one of these big time magazines, and/or fashion shows in the NEAR future.

& may the lord bless me w/ the strength to follow and reach my goal to the FULLEST.
