http://dailypost.wordpress.com/2014/03/05/prompt-sleep/ I’ve been fortunate to not be in a situation where I’ve ever over heard ill will directed toward me. However I have been in a situation where I made a realization that a young lady I thought was a friend was not and of course; I’ll explain. So. I won’t say her name, it’s…

I hope you dance
http://dailypost.wordpress.com/2014/02/27/prompt-dance/ “When yuh married meh/i guh dance” – is a Guyanese proverb, which without the spelling adjustments to compensate for how it sounds with our accent, is saying ‘When you get married, I will dance”. Music is a heavily ingrained part of my Caribbean culture so the idea of dancing is a very natural one….
Beauty of Silence
When I was a little girl I had a lot of time with my thoughts. I could sit on the verandah of our house and pretend that a chain of events occurred that allowed me governance over everything I could see. I would pass laws and observe people as they walked by, most of them…
Vice Vice Baby
http://dailypost.wordpress.com/2014/02/19/daily-prompt-rick-roll/ There aren’t many vices that would make me raise an eyebrow for more than an second. I assume that most people have multiple; some that they are willing to share and others of a more private nature. The only issue I have with vice are those who do everything in excess. You know the…
The first time I fell in love
http://dailypost.wordpress.com/2014/02/14/daily-prompt-its-friday-im-in-love/ It should be no secret that the first time I fell in love, it would be with a character from a book but the first time I fell in love with a book; it was a more memorable occasion. I was in High School in America and my English Teacher had told us only…
I could teach you how to speak my language, Rosetta Stone
http://dailypost.wordpress.com/2014/02/10/daily-post-take-that-rosetta/ If you don’t get the lyric reference, I won’t judge you. If you do; yay you! I’ve had quite a few brushes with language; because of my interest in culture. I go on these culture interest binges and of course, a big part of understanding cultural nuance is language. Growing up in a melting…

Why is Battlefield 4 so broken?
I’m not sure any one has the answer to that question. It seems inconceivable that a franchise game, the fourth one in, has this many issues. We have become game testers for developers. They don’t even bother finishing the game before they take our money. 1. What is “0” health? Why is this now something…
Your turn to wash the dishes
While I love cooking, I hate washing dishes. Yes, hate. The “deal” in my household is whoever cooks, is absolved from washing dishes. This still doesn’t work because I hate washing dishes, even on the days when I didn’t cook. I can’t identify what it is about the task itself that I hate; but I…
Writing through the Blues
So if you’re on twitter you know the phrase “tweet through it”; that kind of sums up what I’m trying to do with this blog. I have this problem with consistency when the negative feelings about myself and my writing creep in. 2013 was such a tough year for my family and I and I…
