Candle in the dark


Et Facta est lux
(and there was light)

Im working at a camp at University of Southern California (USC) and im working really hard!!! Starting at 5:45am and not ending until 10:30pm, but its all good because it is truly rewarding!


Today we (the staff) wore our white polo shirts and i decided to pair it with my white 
Morehouse College 
hat! I cant help but shine my Morehouse light where ever I go :)

Ciara, the Pretty Woman

Thanks, its ver-sace (pronounced ver-sayce)
I cant be the only person who has noticed the 
SKY SCRAPER HEELS
that Ciara has been rocking.

She has truly fallen for these new Versace heels and is wearing these staggering stilettos with ease as if they are flats...now thats a bad b....
(you get it)

Here she is earlier this year rocking these amazing shoes in white on a red carpet...#flawless


Here she is recently at the BET Awards rocking these Versace Heels with boyfriend jeans, a basic tank and a shouldered blazer..she makes it look #effortless

well worth the wait

Yall know I love great music and great artists and one of my favorite R&B artists is
Chris Brown
Since high school there has been something amazing about his music that has drawn me to it. Well today, he showed UP and showed OUT! The amazing gave a heart felt tribute to the late great 
Michael Jackson 



He sang a wide variety of Michael Jackson songs while doing signature Michael Moves like the moon walk and hip thrusts
He even taped his finger tips like the King of Pop. The performance was truly amazing and pulled on peoples heart strings. The last part of his performance was VERY EMOTIONAL! He came out and got a bit overwhelmed during Man in the Mirror it was TRULY PHENOMENAL!!!
In case you missed it, or are like me and wanna rewatch it, heres a clip of that AMAZING performance!! This was truly the best MJ tribute EVER!!




PS: Later in the night he also got The Viewers Choice award for having the best fans #TeamBreezy

just ordinary people

doing EXTRAordinary things

Today, like millions of others, I sat down and watched the 10th Annual BET Awards where they honored singer, songwriter, philanthropist and activist
John Legend

He received The Humanitarian Award for his amazing work with both American and African education systems to improve education across the world for all students. His work is truly inspirational. He is a great example of stars using their power and influence to improve the worlds condition. 

While they played a video of his great work a song came on that was AMAZING and i had to share it with  you guys. Im sure you have heard it before, but never like this

the search begins....

So in a few weeks ill be Barcelona Bound for a study abroad program im doing for the fall semester and they have advised us to pack light with one big checked bag, one carry on and one backpack.

Yall already know thats gunna be a problem for me cuz im def used to packin up my closet for a trip, but watever, im gunna make due. I already have the big bag, but the search is on for my carryon bag. 

So the search is on for the carryon that will take me overseas!!!

I need this bag to be...
-big enough
-sturdy enough
-easy to carry
-fashionable
-affordable

THIS MAY BE A PROBLEM!

Here are some bags that I would LOVE to have 
(whether i get them or not is a dif story, but...)

This Louis Vuitton Damier Graphite Keepall would be perfect. The subtle Louis Vuitton design oozes masculinity and style #perfect

No, those arent purses, those are AMAZING HERMES H.A.Cs. Pharrell snagged these two luxury bags for his travelling. Each one cost a cool $46,000 but check them out..they are AMAZING!!


Whats not to love about this Louis Vuitton Monogramouflage Keepall. This unique bag was special edition a couple years ago, so finding one is pretty hard, but just look at it, its sporty and different, gotta love it!


As great as these bags are, they are just a tad bit out of the price range that im aiming for, so unless a miracle happens, i prob wont be getting these bags, but I will surely be on the hunt until I find one that I LOVE!

Gone too soon

Shiny and sparkly and splendidly bright
here one day, gone one night.
Like the loss of sunlight on a cloudy afternoon
Gone too soon.
-Michael Jackson

Two young lives were taken from us these past couple of days and they were truly gone too soon. The Atlanta University Center, Spelman College and Morehouse College will truly miss the two young lives that were prematurely cut short.

Ms. Tiana Kindred
(June 6, 1991 - June 18, 2010)
Spelman c/o 2013




Mr. Khalifah Muhammad
(December 11, 1991 - June 24, 2010)
Morehouse College c/0 2013





These two young people will surely be missed. Let their legacy live on in our hearts.

hotter than summer school

Anyone who knows me knows that iLOVE me some NICKI MINAJ!

Her stage presence and great performance has had me mesmerized for quite some time. A few months ago, while riding down the ATL freeway with Kamilah I heard this song on the radio and have been in love ever since!  Now theres a video!

Sean Garrett and Nicki Minaj- Get It All

chocolate climax

I am truly my fathers son and I have (genetically) inherited his love for 

Bayerische Motoren Werke
(in english Bavarian Motor Works)
aka
BMW

Today i was looking around on the internet and found something that is truly worth a second, third and fourth look.


This BMW M6 is simply amazing! I love the peanut butter color, the wheels and you already know about the speed that comes with an M6. Starting at about 105k, I wont be getting one any time soon, but this is certainly one to look forward to in the future :)

she comes with strong recommendations

some say she was responsible for our first black president, some say she is responsible for the new found love and admiration for red bottom heels, either way we all know her endorsement has
A LOT OF POWER!


yup, im talking about the one, the only OPRAH!!

Mama O once again has endorsed a product and this time she calls it

THE MOST TALENTED GIRL IN THE WORLD!

This young songstress made her premier on Oprah a few years back and after her amazing vocals and heart string pulling story, Oprah hooked her up with an AMAZING team that sky-rocketted her to stardom. I love her voice, check out her video and song that pretty much is constantly in my head.

trading places

anyone who knows me knows that I like to stay in the lime light as the center of attention at almost every possible moment. Well recently, i took a trip to a lil relaxation spot and decided to go behind the camera and take some pics of nature.

So many times we overlook the beautiful surroundings that we encounter on a regular basis. I hope this post reminds you to take a minute out of your day and smell the flowers

california sunset

The beauty of the bush 

The ground... from an ants perspective

The bark of a tree

Stop and smell the flowers

who would know that in a suburban park i could find such a great rock to photograph


down the hill from through the bushes into suburbia

well, a perfect california sunset to end the day and start the night.

Funky Fair Food

The Fair is in town!!!!!

The lights, the action, the people...the FOOD!!?!

Ok, I love food just as much (maybe more) than the next person, but I will never understand some of the food they have at the fair. Here are some of the pics I got from the fair food stands last night..
Ok the word CURDS disgusts me beyond your wildest dream..#yuck


wtf? yall kno im not down with the MOO and im def not down with deep fried moo...#gross


This sign alone is reason enough to stay away from the booth, but of course there was a long line of curious fair-goers who wanted to taste what the HEART ATTACK CAFE was offering
This is one of the "treats" the HEART ATTACK CAFE was offering...DEEP FRIED BUTTER!! are you kidding me? There is abso nothing appetizing about this AT ALL!!
So i gave up eating all #oink but there is one thing i miss...and thats BACON!! but who ever thought of chocolate covered bacon deserves to be in somebodys institution. That has to be the most random combos ever!

Check out this smorgasbord of nastiness. The worst of all is the chicken sandwich in the top left corner...the buns are 2 Krispy Kreme donuts...simply asking for a heart attack!


No matter how disgusting the food things are, there are always people ready and willing to ignore their stomach's disgust and try it! This guy is eating some jumbo mexican funnel cake that, if you finish in one sitting, its free...it actually looked really good :)

Call me old fashion, but i think im gunna stick with my fried corn. :) Its sooo yummy!!
