GOLD ENSEMBLE.........my name on it!!!!!

well on this day i practically dragged my friend to go window shopping with me, just to pass time on a cold winter Saturday  and then she pointed at a shop and brought d suggestion that we should take a look inside, before now i disliked the shop immensely cos i never could find any i liked each time i visited there...

on this day as i was nagging her head off "Ruth" by d way, u should know her i wrote about her and my former roomy 'Lizzie'....my eyes caught sight of this dress...i immediately got super excited not just because it was a pretty dress but it had a golden design which invariably has a relationship wiv my name "GOLD"

OMG i honestly dunno whats wiv me n getting super duper excited anytime that has d slightest bit of relationship wiv my name on it...recently a friend bought me wine that had my name on it and made my entire month besides that i saw recently a bangle which by d way i paired with d dress in a shop and just cos of the gold design i knew i had to purchase it.... Earlier a friend made my semester wiv a gift of a golden wrist watch that i am also putting on and ve been rocking like crazy..so you see i go gaga crazy for any attachment to anything that has gold on it....

well when i got home i rushed to my jewelry box and started rummaging for any gold stuff i had to pair with d dress, the least thought was to try a pop of colour, i even made up my mind that my eye shadow was gonna b gold colored ...later i sat to watch an xmas movie "the mistletones" i got side tracked when the thought of what da hell got me so excited about the name and the color....

till now trust me i dunno, maybe its just my name, maybe its cos i like gold, maybe its cos i ve a special admiration for the color or because its just plain my name, whatever the reason remind me to thank dad for the name.....and cos my love for this colour gave a beautiful insight on how to perfectly rock my outfit of a golden ensemble......

 look at her video  SOLANGE LOOSING YOU and see how she pairs her outfit...

once after she shaved off her hair the media berated Solange. After which she posted on twitter; “I am the number 3 trending topic before Iran and some of you can’t even locate it on a map. I just wanted to be free from the bondage that black women sometimes put on themselves with hair. These days of my life, I want to spend the time, the energy and the money on something else, not in the hair salon. ONLY reason I responded to this is because I was disappointed to see my name more talked about than the Iran Elections. We have got to do better people.”

well people what else is there to be said about these beauty except crush on her *winks*

i wont waste a min any longer look at her pictures n understand y d crush

WHY I SMILE AND TELL STORIES.....

listen to MISHA B do you think of me

Cheryl under the sun

                    I wish i could say its to achieve a level of near perfection like other big writers before me, actually if you have read a few of my post you would know i love spoken word, am not gonna go back to to talk about that but if u r interested in knowing more i suggest you go back for my post on that topic...

                    so i was listening to a talk by PHIL KAYE on WHY I TELL STORIES (u can find it on YouTube) so invariably d question came to mind, y do i tell stories? 

funny a classmate asked me same recently and i gave my usual reply of its already a logo boldly written on my blog....but as i listened to that talk i began to have doubt as to why i blog or tell stories? do i do this because i wanted to join the community of bloggers and so tell stories through it? or was it a hobby? did i tell stories cos i wanted to build an audience of followers? do i just want to show case my beautiful pictures??

As i sat and pondered in my sitting room d only direction my mind could go was absolutely nowhere, shocking for me cos uptil now i was quite certain i thought i knew why....so i thot to myself after telling stories how do i feel and that's when i realized just like a vision, inspiration or incite hit me.. 

                     Each time i tell stories and someone smiles or laughs i feel that warming glow inside not even money can buy..i joke alot, i laugh alot oh not because i like d sound of my laugh of course i do*winks* but i find it makes people around me feel more at ease, there is a generation of love and laughter around, i find each time i laugh with a person, or share a laugh with a story, i have bought over an impending enmity or enemity whichever, i have made a new friend...

                          so that singular video had managed to give me a new outlook or direction, call it what you will but if at the end of my stories you don't take a new lesson, at least smile, it fulfills a purpose...heey wait d pix for dis post....
