diva is a female version of a hustla?
When I first heard this song i frowned in confusion. I always thought a hustler was someone that like... did what they had to do to make money and worked real hard for it.. and i also thought a diva was someone who thought highly of themselves, was dramatic, and liked things handed to them... according to beyonce im wrong.
me and some friends were discussing this 'definition of a diva' and we decided that maybe a prostitute [along with other types of females] would be more of a definition of a hustler... like a prostitute does what she gotta do [..just happens that its with her body] to make money.. u kno? i'm sure there's a better definition but that was of the top of the dome...
but then my other friend brought up that.. beyonce could be trying to re-define the word diva.. since shes been called diva so much in the past.. i mean it's true i wouldnt want to be known as someone dramtic, liked things handed to her, and thinks highly of herself... or self proclaim it atleast..
so i wanna know what you think..
is beyonce redefining Diva... or does she legit think diva and hustler are synonyms??
Intermission:
So lemme take this moment and apologize for slippin up on my blog game... my wireless wasn't working at my humble abode and as most of you know.. i am on winter break in the lovely montgomery county maryland.. i have so much to update you all on.. but ima take it slow lol...
heres a lil sommin sommin i wrote a few days ago when i was excited about going clubbin' for the first time [yes, yes y'all your girl was a virgin]
...and we're back
I step in with my grace throwing breeze through my bangs....
you turn around and whisper to your boy,
and although I can't hear what ur saying...
the skin above ur brow must be transparent, I can see through to your
thoughts...
the adhesive of my swag must be double sided, you stay on my back and my
front...
our dancing acquaints us to eachother,
you observe by clenching my waist...
we connect with every 808,
the music providing a slower paste...
you're imagining your hands gliding my straps off my shoulder, your
fingertips removing my belt...
your tongue gliding across my collar bone, you imagine ur chest being
felt...
I can see it, I can see it
I can see it, I can see it,
right through the glass replacing ur skull...
I'm decideing whether I'm ashamed of myself,
for not minding your thoughts at all...
I wonder if you're a mind reader to,
if you can tell where I'd rather be...
smuthered in your skin and sheets,
with you hovering on top of me...
im not too proud of this one..
you know what i need already... is it complete and a title?

Friday
you niggas want BEEF? i want a STEAK and a WEED B.
yo yo yo.
so, for my FIRST OFFICIAL BLOG ARTICLE EVERRRR i chose a topic that most recently has become a pretty interesting part of my life. ...and although i was like 199.99% sure i was gonna use this time to spit some man-hating words, i have chosen to use this time to talk about (dun dun dunnnnn)
Dictionary definition: idle talk or rumor, esp. about the personal or private affairs of others: the endless gossip about Hollywood stars.
..i personally think that's pretty true, except i would add in the fact that they're gossiping about people THEY DON'T REALLY KNOW. you wouldn't be wondering what so-and-so was doing with so-and-so last friday if you were actually friends with them because they would have told you.
..so, if i got over it junior year in high school... tell me why now, in college, gossipping & trash-talking is everywhere. and most of it's not even freshman. UPPER CLASSMAN bitties are in on this shit too.
At first I thought people gossipped about others just because they were bored. I honestly did. Their lives weren't interesting enough, so they look to others for a sense of entertainment. I mean, that's what happens with celebrities right? Bored? Buy a magazine and see what crazy shit Britney Spears got herself into this week. Done with your homework early? Turn on the E! channel and see what the stars wore on the red carpets...i personally dont find any entertainment in it, but obviously millions of people do because they is a huge fucking industry for it.
But, we're in college. We're never that bored (unless we are at home snowed in...like i am now). There's always some homework that we're putting off, some alcohol that we could be drinking, or some athlete that we could be sleeping with and then getting lied to by. So, if gossip is not a time filler, why do it? I'm sorry children, but i really don't have an answer. So, hmm, maybe this blog is pointless..but i have some examples from my own experiences thus far that might clue you in to my curiosity about the topic.
interesting how this was said about a week after my one month anniversary with my boyfriend, hmm? mind you, this was told to me by a girl a class above me who i really don't know that well. we were at a party, and she took time out of her night to "help me out" and tell me that unspecified people believe that i've been getting it in with mad dudes. had i been in a straight mind set, i would have bitched her ass out, telling her that i've been talking with the same guy for the last four months or so, and even if i WAS getting it in with mad dudes it was none of her damn business. i honestly didn't even know her full name til about a week after. now, i can't really blame her for this as much as the people who apparently had been talking shit ... but common now. how sad must your life be if your making up shit about a sweet, wide-eyed, innocent freshman like myself? ...exactly.
yup. this conversation actually happened. one of my good friends heard rumors that i was apparently messing with 2 football players (at the same time..like..really though?) and tried to give that fact that they saw me WALKING with them as evidence. mind you, this occured at the very,very,very beginning of the school year when i just moved in and the only other people on the fucking campus were the athletes...and the worst part about this was that people will actually BELIEVE IT! they don't know the first thing about me, so they assume "oh hey, a girl is walking with two athletes. she must be getting trained on."...like wat-da-fuck.
Alright, I'm gonna start bringing this baby to a close.

Of Gods & Girls
Aiiight ladies n gents, time to get my first official post in here...
so i'm finally done with finals. happy as hell about that. Break has begun and i'll post a lil more often now...oh yeah shout outs to Stacey aka S.Dot aka The Rock's Finest lmfao
so as i was studying, i was throwing on some older tracks I was jammin to freshman year and came across Mr. J. Medeiros.
So, for those who ain't familiar with dude, he was part of the group, The Procussions, who've dropped 3 albums, one of which is pretty dope, called 5 Sparrows for Two Cents in 2006.
So in '07 J decided drop a solo joint called Of Gods and Girls which was freakin crazy in my eyes. That album is sooo ill! and those beats are fire! There's a lil jazzy feel to it, like Constance which is the true story about a 13 year old Filipino girl who's a victim to human trafficking and rape...serious ass story there. but some joints, like Keep Pace just go hard as hell in regards to the beat. He's what most hip hop heads would prolly call a backpacker and a conscious cat.
He sounds like Zack De La Rocha of the infamous rock group Rage Against the Machine... and matter fact, the first time i heard his voice, I actually thought my boy Zack was back in the game and rappin. I was wrong. but I was pleasantly surprised to hear Medeiros' music. Shit was like a breath of fresh air. Still is, too. This albums definitely back in my rotation.
Here are two of his videos, coincidentally, for Keep Pace and Constance...
Keep Pace
Constance
I'm big on conscious rap. I'ma post a lot of shit tho. everything.
If you wanna hear some more of his shit, hit me up...
Enjoy

A new Theory
Okay so sometimes I have these random thoughts that i turn into theories/philosophies...
This morning I was thinking about why people say that "Tittles ruin everything" and why they actually do...
This is what I came up with:
When people are in the "wooing" stages they are actually trying to impress, sustain, and basically "win" the other person over. When people tittle their relationship... it gives one (or both) of the partners the idea that they dont have to try anymore because they have "won" that person over already.
Which brings me to another philosophy...
If people would only keep trying after the tittling of the relationship, I think a lot of relationships would stay together longer. I feel as though, if people would try as hard to KEEP one another, as they did to GET one another, maybe so many divorces wouldnt happen. Maybe even more marriages would happen...
I dont know, what do you guys think?

you THINK you know, but you have NO IDEA: College Life... Self Identity
When I was still in high school I had a best friend that was on her way into college. We were like twins. Like inseparable... My biggest fear was that she would go far away, and we would not be able to chill and hang out as much. When she decided to go to a local college we were both souped. all "woo whoo we can be friends forever." I thought the least of my fears was over. Little did I know that after that september things would change forever... it was weird.. we'd hang out and chill but she was a different person. And sooner than later, we drifted apart.

Poetic Prestige
So im sure many of you may know, i write poetry. And I like to think that im pretty DAMN GOOD at it. But instead of posting some of my favorite poems on here i decided i will post my top 5 def jam poems. Tell me what you think about them.
5.
Kanye, Idk I just love da swagg he has on it, espicailly on the first one. But if your thinking to youself, yes the second one was bittersweet. I like this version better. "I make black history every day i dont need a month."
4.
This is prolly my second favorite on here but after watching the next two, you'll understand why it's number 4. Yes, im a sucka for love...
3.
Pat's Justice, something special here, alwayz nice to see it from the minorites view. Watching this makes it hard for me to judge others.
2.
This view on religion by Talib opens a lot of eyes and maybe very contrversialm but on that same token i dont think you should beileve everything ur told, and thats why claim to be more spiritual than religiuos.
1.
Speechless.

An update...
on other note
sarah palins dumb ass is talkin about runnin for president.
if this b don't take her frozen ass back to alaska and stay there
...idk wat ima do
Bossip says:
While speaking to ABC’s “This Week,” McCain was asked if Sarah Palin could count on his support if she were to run for president. Peep what old dude had to say:
“I can’t say something like that. We’ve got some great other young governors. I think you’re going to see the governors assume a greater leadership role in our Republican Party.
WHAT'S WRONG WITH THESE PICTURES?!?!?!
you tell me.
FINALLY I FOUND THE LONG VERSION
so this dude made the perfect woman... [above] she even has sexual sensors and shit... too much? i think so.
she look so real tho!
SO just to update everyone... me and my frat pal are probably just gonna stay friends..
So they got somebody for murdering Jennifer Hudsons fam... check out this story tho..
Jennifer Hudson’s sister, Julia, celebrated turning 31 on Oct. 23 with cake and a small party at home. The next morning, police say, Julia’s estranged husband William Balfour – booted last February from the house on Chicago’s South Side where they lived with Julia’s mother and 7-year-old son – showed up and spotted a gift he believed came from another man. That jealousy is the motive that led Balfour, 27, to return to the house after Julia had left for work and shoot her mother Darnell Donerson, 57, Jennifer’s brother Jason, 29, then take Julia’s son, 7-year-old Julian King, and later kill him as well, prosecutors allege. Jennifer and other Hudson family members were “relieved and happy” after Balfour was charged Dec. 2 with three counts of first-degree murder and one count of home invasion, Chicago Police Deputy Superintendent Steve Patterson has said. Those family members assisted “every step of the way under very stressful and painful circumstances,” adds police Superintendent Jody Weis. Balfour’s attorney Joshua Kutnick says the stormy relationship between Balfour and Julia Hudson makes his client a convenient target. “We are extremely confident that once all of the evidence has come to light and has been tested by our vigorous analysis of the case, that William will be found not guilty,” Kutnick said after a judge ordered Balfour held without bail.
That's CRAAAAAAAZY.

you THINK you know, but you have NO IDEA: College Life... Friends
So here is december... pretty much the end of my first semester of college...
at first i was not enjoying my experience here, but i have realized that this is a growing experience and im learning. being here, god-willingly, will make me a better person. not only academically and intellectually but in my time here i think i am maturing.. i am learning about the world that i have always watched under the protection of my parents. yea, BC isn't the world, but it's a portion of it.. and im here.. alone.. and im growing...
so in celebration of this new realization of growth and the end/ survival of my first semester of college EVERRR lol, i am going to do a little mini series about the things i have learned more about here at BC
I came into to college thinking I was going to meet a lot of new people, that I would acquaint some, befriend others, and fall in love with one...
I thought that coming to college would mean that I would have the ginormous groups of friends and we'd be super tight by the time Thanksgiving came around...
Now looking back, I realize that it was silly of me to think that that would happen, when all the times before that I have enjoyed the company of a few close friend...
I came here and I can say that I "acquainted" with everyone. We'd chill, eat together, go to class together, go out together.. It was fun. but it still didn't have that "college bestfriends" feeling to me..
Soon everyone was grouping off into the "friendship-groups" lol. And although I felt as is I could hang out and chill with anyone here at BC, I never felt that genuine click with anyone.. and it bothered me because I didn't understand how everyone had found their bestfriends and I still hadn't...
I didn't comprehend how someone could meet another person and all of a sudden become their bestfriend.. like in just a month... for me tight friendships like that had to be developed over time.. iono...
Soo.. i have had an epiphany...
I'm not like everyone else... So there for I going to go about things differently..
So when people found their "BFFL" in a month.. I found my real friends in three.. and even then, nothing is ever certain..
NEWHO.. i found some people at BC that i truely care for... and ima miss then MUCHO GRANDE come winter breakk :-(
and if you still haven't found those "friends" don't stress it... it will come in time..
peaceee

Yea, this is my car and shit. I've been trying to make it run like any other car. I bought it for $2200. And I've spend over $1000 into it. And it still isn't worth what I spent yet. I keep trying to be optimistic about my situation, but it has not changed one bit since I bought this shit. I'm thinking about just getting a high paying ass job. Like a manager's position or something so I could get myself a new whip. Maybe a 2009 Honda Civic Si Sedan. Yea. Somethin' slight. Then I could pull up to some bun joint liiiiiike, "AY SHAWTY! Like me get a number 1 and a shake." Until then, I'ma be on my grind.

Okay, so today I broke up with my boyfriend of 2years and 2 months... but i feel fine. not the fucked-up, INsecure, Emo fine, but the I feel okay fine... I mean, we been on this slippery slope...down hill of course, so I've been expecting to break up with him for a while. I was guna do it after the holidays tho b/c the holidays are sposed to be happy and stuff. Plus, his ex-broke up with him about 2 years ago...around xmas... I shoulda known it wasnt guna work out by how the relationship started. Anywhoo, moving on... Okay so, speaking of the DEVIL, his ex...yeah, she ruined him. Str8 up fucked him all over...the stupid slut. But anyway...im jus sayin this because I guess im jus now realizin that you really cant FIX a ruined man. I tried to, and it didnt work out. So now im single and ready to mingle... I thought id be heart broken... but im not. Im just a lil bitter sweet. Bitter because I did EVERYTHING a good... no FUCK good... a GREAT girl friend should do. I was there for him, in whatever he wanted to do, be it with the relationship or life wise, I supported him, I waited a year and a half for him to even ASK ME OUT!!! shit! If that doesnt say enough, what does? He was my first real relationship, my first love. We share the same habbits (dont drink, dont smoke) but not the same life goals (I will get married and have children, he wont). Im a go getter... im determined to be a lawyer and make my way to DA, I dont care how many years of schooling I need. He has settled for what career field he can go into with credits from fucking MC! I could go on forever...but i wont. I just dont understand how I gave him ALL my time, ALL my energy, ALL my love, ALL my everything... and got SHIT back in return... but it's w/e. I know that God puts people in your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime...he wass just my reason, that stretched into a season. I honstly dont think it was sposed to go as far as it did. But what more can I say...idk... HE BETTER NOT CALL ME TONIGHT EITHER! shit...im a bitter mad angry black woman now... sike jkjk he's not guna ruin it for the next man, I wont let him... I really do hope that he finds someone that he's willing to change for one day tho... IDK y it wasnt me, guess im not pretty, young, or hispanic enough (like his ex... shes like 16...she was 14 when he dated her... and he was like 18... sick shit... i shoulda known! I SHOULDA KNOWN!!!) PS-sorry if there are any type-o's... im not in the editing mood...

Friday
I am usually completely against infidelity. I mean I still am. But for the first time in my life I'm seein it from the perspective of the other woman. Dunn Dunn Dunn!
"here we go yo, here we go yo, so what's, so what's the scenario"
Say so and so just found out that the dude she's been seeing [on campus] actually has a long term girlfriend [back home]. What attitude should so and so have? Well usually I'd say so and so should stop talking to him. I mean she wouldn't want to be in the dudes girlfriend right. Treat others how you wanna be treated. Golden rule right?
But in actuality, so and so did nothing wrong.
He lied and said he didn't have s girlfriend. Should finding out that he was lying change her behavior? I mean he lied for a reason. What SHE gotta do wit so and so?
Girls are just as bad as guys these days.
Say you were the 'girlfriend back home'.. you can't be mad at so and so because so and so is just doing what you'd do in that position [since the dude lied]. Girls are ruthless anyway. It's true.
But at the end of the day its on the nigha.
Girls get mad at girls over this shit...
but he's playing you BOTH!
Botha y'all need to drop his ass like hot...
hot...
damn..
i can't think of a good simile..
all i know is
I MUST BE BUTTA CUZ I'M ON A ROLL!!!
