http://dailypost.wordpress.com/dp_prompt/you-robot/ I’ve already discussed in a previous post my dislike to for washing dishes so I think I’ll flip this challenge a bit. If I were a robot, I would either be relegated to cooking or to caring for either older people or animals. Cooking I enjoy but not as much as I adore watching…

Work is never just optional
http://dailypost.wordpress.com/dp_prompt/work-optional/ As with most immigrant children, a very strong work ethic was instilled in me from a young age. I started working at 15 and I’ve had very few months in between then and now that were completely work free and it was scary. I’m currently in transition so I know that I will have…
August Blues with a bit of News
August is a tough month for me, current events aside; the 3rd is my late Grandmother’s Birthday and the 19th marked one year since the passing of my Mother In Law. I can’t believe it’s been a year already. Beyond the forced acknowledgement of my family’s losses over the past two years, I’ve been making…
Strand Book Store – They get me
Picked up these two magnets today on my lunch break run along with The Virgin Suicides by Jeffrey Eugenides They have t-shirts as well. Clearly they give no damns about my budget.
Scribblenauts Unmasked
Since Aden got me a 3ds last year to play Pokèmon X, I’ve only played one other game on the hand held, the Adventure Time game. I realize that I’m far from adjusted to old school platformers so didn’t want to invest in a game that would make me mad…so here we are. It’s got…
Musical Marker: Summer 2014
http://dailypost.wordpress.com/dp_prompt/musical-marker/ If I only had to choose one it would be Beyonce – Drunk in Love. Her most recent album was released in December of last year but has been ruling the airwaves ever since. I won’t give it to “Happy” by Pharrell because I’m currently trying to forget it exists.
Does that make me crazy by Bassey Ikpi
I first heard Bassey Ikpi’s voice during one of the Def Jam Poetry shows…it was clear as a bell and I felt an instant connection to her. At the time, she was known as a writer / poet but not much more. Since then, she’s become an advocate for mental health and started to speak…
As seen in: Brooklyn
Never expected to see parrots while we were strolling through Fort Greene Park.
Take Off Your Cool
I dislike change. Even when it’s for the better. I’ve been going through a lot of growing pains and while I’m excited for what the future holds, I would be lying if I didn’t admit I was shit scared of the unknown. The biggest thing for me is: What do I love enough to sacrifice…
World Cup 2014
With the start of this year’s World Cup I’ve started to feel better and worse. As a Caribbean and South American Woman; it’s such an exciting time for us. The idea of the World Cup being hosted so close to home, in a continent where almost every country plays the sport (we have 9 national…
