Anais Nin: You live like this, sheltered, in a delicate world, and you believe you are living. Then you read a book… or you take a trip… and you discover that you are not living, that you are hibernating. The symptoms of hibernating are easily detectable: first, restlessness. The second symptom (when hibernating becomes dangerous and might degenerate into death): absence of pleasure. That is all. It appears like an innocuous illness. Monotony, boredom, death. Millions live like this (or die like this) without knowing it. They work in offices. They drive a car. They picnic with their families. They raise children. And then some shock treatment takes place, a person, a book, a song, and it awakens them and saves them from death. Some never awaken.

Jazmine Sullivan's " Bust Your Windows"

Her new video disappointed me.

I was expecting to see her riding in a big Escalade with her girls, Dressed in all black, and tall stiletto boots to match, stopping around the corner of her boyfriends place and promptly taking turns beating the windows, side panels, back lights, front lights, turn signals, and rear-view mirrors out of his car. 

The video wasn't complete trash, but the director really missed the mark on this one. FAREAL

Hopefully the next one will be satisfactory...what's her next single? Hm..i hope it's not "In love with another man" because that's my favorite song on the cd...

Halloween Pt. 1

So my grandmother threw a fish-fry a couple of weeks ago, and I asked one of my 3000 little cousins what I should be for halloween.
Aleena* said, "An Angel!!!"
Then I thought about it...hm...not bad Aleena*
I could pull that off, but what would I wear? My Google prowess came in..

I can be a sultry, glowing, alluring, goddess - angel for Halloween.

Costume search!!!
I went online to Frederick's of Hollywood first...But then I thought about what I should be wearing: An angel would either have on a baby-doll or a long flowing gown, so I searched for those two things.








(Imagine these in White...)
Lover's Lane...



I like the gowns/lingerie from Lover's Lane more than Frederick's. Now, all I need to do is search where I can find some big ass Victoria's Secret angel wings...
then I would be perfect...


Yes!! This would be too perfect!! But I don't think that I can buy any like this online. The only ones I can find are the thin, papery kind...

Hopefully, by halloween I can find an outfit..
