New Music Monday: "Love On Top" Official Video

Once again, Beyoncé brings us another banger of a video. This woman's work ethic continues to astound me, even more so now that she'll be a mother in a few months. The simplistic layout of this video really showcases her performance ability and shows us once again why she is the queen or should I say king, as she likes to refer to herself . .. of R&B.

Like it, love it, let me know.
Later taters!

New Video: "Countdown" by Beyonce

Needless to say that any video coming from Beyonce is much anticipated, well today marked the release of the official video for Beyonce's "Countdown" video. To say that it's amazing is an understatement, the quirky and fun video obviously has had a lot of thought put into it and Beyonce delivers as usual, baby bump in tow and all.

Transitioning: From Relaxed to Natural.

So year's ago as a biracial kid I never thought anything was wrong with my hair, but then I got to high school and saw that no one and I mean no one had hair like mine. If they did, they didn't wear it in its natural state and I begged and pleaded with my parents for them to let me alter my naturally curly hair. So with unenthusiastic answers, they said yes. Now here I am . . . I've transitioned from relaxed hair to natural hair over the course of the last three years and to say it wasn't easy was a complete understatement. Not only is transitioning a physical change of your appearance, but a mental change of how you view yourself and the world's perception of beauty.

Take a look at where I started:

And She's Back!

Sorry for the terrible M.I.Aness  . . . is that a word? Well it is now. Things have been picking up for me as of late and although the job search in this city is still a nightmare, I have decided to throw myself back into writing and even start a youtube channel dedicated to hair and anything else that comes to my chaotic mind. So please, if you could find it in your loving little hearts to check out my channel and subscribe I'd be forever grateful.

Now all you lovelies can see me and my crazy hair. Please view, subscribe, and share with your friends.

Jobless once more . .

I suppose when it rains it pours and . . well right now for me it's hailing right along with the downpour. Since I've blogged last I informed you all that I have completed my internship and am back on the job hunt. It seems like with the one step that I've taken forward, I'm dealing with more backlash about me not trying hard enough to gain employment. I can't just go up to someone, strangle them from across their desk, and demand they give me a job. I'm trying to remain positive, but with all the negativity coming at me from a never ending source of stupid, it's been hard.

Hope you've all had better luck than I have.

New Music - "For The First Time" by The Script

Today calls for me to speak about The Script's wonderful new video. I know that since I've been missing this video may not be considered as new, but because they are my absolute most favorite band in the world-- I MUST tell you all about their new single "For The First Time."

On their new sophomore album Science & Faith, The Script come back with what I call a banger. "For The First Time" is a head nodding, soul identifying song that captures the listener's ear. In the tough times that we are going through now, the song's lyrics are perfectly aligned with people's lives across the nation (they've always been absolutely marvelous when it comes to penning soulful and deep lyrics). The video that accompanies the song is a bit of the short film, showing the struggles that many people go through with trying to survive life; with finding a job and managing relationships.

If you don't believe me well take a look for yourselves:

Hope you enjoy this bit of music.

Happy listening taters.

M.I.A. . . . No Excuse.



Well hello there darlings, I know I've been MIA for God only knows how long and I have had a ton of stuff happen to me since the last time I've actually updated. I have finished my internship (as of two weeks ago) and have currently snagged a job. Whoppie! I also managed to snag myself an intestinal infection that stuck with me for nearly four weeks and then I got the flu following that. BUT, I'm hanging in there and I'm better now.

So the holidays have nearly blurred by and the next holiday coming is my birthday (yes, this should be a national holiday). Anywho, I would like to wish all of my readers a belated Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to those that may not celebrate Christmas.

I hope the New Year finds you all in great spirits and opens many doors for jobs and internships for those of you that are in the same boat as yours truly.

Later taters.
