My Weekend Part 2

July 16: the walk to my house before the drive to saugaJuly 16/17 - At the house party, we poured some alcohol out for Kay and Michael Jackson, but we wanted every drop to come out so we buried it upside down in the Garden and for some reason put the cap on the bottom
July 17: My birthday cake!
Chambers mixing the juice
July 18: decided to get my ears pierced, on the walk back home we saw a car for sale, and investigated


on Chambers street, we met the child from hell.
From left to right: Chamebrs, Matt, Debbie Poon, new friend Janelle


LMAO, moments after this picture, child devil took Debbies Coach bag and swung it around... Debbie, as a reaction pick up the kid and threw him on the street. When he begged just to get his bike she threw his bike at him too!

Moral of the Story: Little Debbie Don't Play!

July 19: ended up eating at Richtree

the Richtree water fountain

My birthday weekend was LIVE!

Shout outs to: Chambers for being my bed buddy, and for the sweater (that I just happen to be wearing now) Aidan, Chief ,Debbie, Janelle, Matt , Lance, Tasha, Mom and even the devil Child! It was all you guys that made my 20th birthday so special!...and to my berry, who without I wouldnt be able to share. I think he needs a name

My Weekend

turns out I took alot of videos (I hope you guys actually watch them!)

This was after I was getting home from work and DJ takin me out to the park, n then took a walk in the forest n chilled on a bench.
(not sure if audio or video quality is that good... again berry can only do so much)


We were talking shit!! and talking about the party we were leaving from!

Favourite Quote by Chambers: "I was playing with a piece of wire, Cuz Ya'll niggaz stole the drumsitcks!"

After we slept woke bought Appleton and small cake n juiced in Mcdonalds - from this time I was drunk all day!


In the evening we picked up Aidan and his friend (i would have remembered his name probably if I was sober. Somthing that starts with G maybe.) Went to Tashas hosue party downtown juiced some more.

This whole weekend I was a drunked Fiieeen... ask Chambers I was always with him! So don't mind me in this next vid

I faked a bathroom break cuz I wasn't feeling dancing with this next guy, cuz he was holding me just a little too tight


No more videos I swear... but thanks for watching!

Track of the Day

Good Morning everyone,

if only



If loved ones never perished, how great would that be? If I could spend that day with anyone in the world I wouldn’t spend it with no one but the ruler of the heart. My late grand-mother. From the day I was born till the day she took her last breath, my grandmother did nothing but shower her love onto me. Living with my grand- mother in Canada was a total bliss. It was always nice to wake up to the aroma of pancakes and eggs cooking in the kitchen. When I was old enough to attend school I moved back to America. Even though I was forced to live in America, my heart was always in Canada. I was only allowed to see my grand-mother during summers because that was the only time school was let out. My grandma always shed tears of happiness when summer began, and then when the summer was over, shed tears of sadness. As the years went by my grand-mother got older and weaker; it only tore my heart into pieces to see how she was slowly going. My grandmother was no longer that fierce lady that raised me. Instead she was just a humble old lady who barely spoke and just kept to herself. Tears always accompanied me when I use to visit my grand-mother and she didn’t even recognize me. My siblings would laugh and jeer at the fact, but this just made me hurt.
When my mama died so did my love for God (though in time I did forgave him). I became so angry with him I blocked him out my life. I felt like if people are just going to die, then what’s the use of getting to know them. My mama was my everything. I even blamed myself for her death; blamed myself for not spending more time with her. If I could have her back the cloud that shadows my heart would surely clear away. She and I would do the things we use to do when she was fierce and had fire in her eyes. We would sit outside on the porch, break a coconut, and drink the milk inside. We would go out and water the flowers to keep us company all summer long. We would take a walk around the block just to stretch our legs and stop at the convenient store for something to drink.
If I was granted this request, to spend the day with my grand-mother for one day, I would ask her to give me some words of wisdom. My grand-mother and I would just talk about all the problems I’m facing today, and it would just be in her nature to have an answer to everything. Then before our time was up, I would ask her to teach me one more reading from the book of psalms. Then we would chant it together until our day was over.

In the News Today

I knew today was gonna be a special day:
Check Chief in the Kanada Kourier.... thats an official news paper, so its a big deal!

Happy Birthday to Me!

First of, I LOVE my life!
So yesterday the 16th was Chiefs birthday and I firgured since hes coming to Sauga that I might as well come too n we can celebrate together. I arrived at around 8.30 but I didnt see him till mnutes to 12. I was chillin with Mr. Chambers during that time.

But the point is that I went to a Party and I only knew the 5 people in the car with me n chief. And it was pretty chill, but i was kinda lonley n then I gave Aidan a call and next thing I knew there he was. We got our drank n then It got LIIVVEE! People were stealing bare shit though

Lesson in Life #1: If you plan on having a house party, DONT! (at least not at your house) you will get robbed

Then I was having tooo much and I started thinking:
I Love my Life
I Love my Family
I Love my Friends
I Love my Environment
I just Love Everything right now

But honestly they are the people that have moulded me to be what I am today, and I love what I am today. And they are there for me and always down! I mean maybe there are other things in this would that other would ask for, but family and friends... thats all you really need.

SO THANK YOU for making me what I am today, I am the product of my Environment.. lol

ps. more pictures and videos to come, you guys dont worry about that!
pps. the pics so bad. cuz the berry can only do so much... If i had my pro camera this wouldnt be a problem (wink wink, nudge nudge)

After the Party

getting home from the party and the afer party, chilling at chambers, with chambers, lance and matt... we wee GOoOnnne

Track of the Day



One of the Leaked songs from HeartBreak Drake #2... Im feelin it.

This Sucks

"Dude, why?!"

today Im going to my grandmas house!

ps. is it strange that I broke up with him yet I still sleep with the teddy bear he gave me? I just hate sleeping alone

Yesterday I went to a AfroFest.

Vanessa called me up cuz she was goin alone and I wanted to go too but I didnt have n e one to go with so it was perfect.

I saw her there, we bought sunglasses (I hate squinting my eyes) I got aviators and she got some really cool rainbow sunglasses!

Then she did some 5 page monologue on stage about some prestigious African man that was supposed to be her son that travelled the world, married an Egyptian and died of cancer. (I cant remember the name, cuz it was african.. sorry!

See for yourself:
And because she messup to SOOoooo Bad, we went to eat and some really cool place at bathurst and College called Nirvana! And our server was really REALLY cute!

That whole time I was tryin to convince her to come to a BBQ with me but instead she wanted to go to a birthday party. Boo

Dont make fun of me... I thought the bottom of the chandellier was pretty
I look soo Hidious!... but thats okay!
lol my hands are up because they skimp on the napkins... that's why their soo cheap!

when you ask for water, thats what they give you:
And then after I left met up with sister to go to the BBQ... but by the time we got there everything was done.

I would have taken pictures but everything was so dark, I couldn't even see the people in front of me. I'm boosting a little, but the berry could only do so much!

Then on the way into the park we met these guys that gave us a ride, and they were so cool, that they gave us a ride home too!

A Good Day Had by all, I Believe!
This guys just too cool. Just had to creep a pic from the bus I was on

Life updates

So recently Ive been working at some computer shop, for around the last month n a half

I merchandise, I clean, I put ads online, I create broadcasts and send out emails, I pack machines that need to be sent... I feel like I do alot of work, expecially cuz he wants to turn the store into a retail store n not so much wholesale, Thats where I come in.

BUT for appox. 93 hours of work he pays me 6 bills. Thats not even minimum wage. And Ive brought it up to him before but still nothing.

So this friday past brought it up again. Said I cant pay for shit with this, its a waste of time being here if this is what ur gonna pay me. [Cue waterworks] Said Im the only one paying for my school and this aint shit and blah blah blah... I got my way.

So now im working monday-friaday (instead of monday-saturday) 13:30-6 (instead of 10:30 - 7) and getting min wage.

So my point is that if ANYONE knows of an evening or weekend job opening, let me know.

Makin Money this Summer is My Goal!

Just check it:

TAKING THE BUS SUCKS

the timing
the waiting
the standing
the looking
the smelling
the people
the bumpy rides
the wasted time
the running
the not sleeping
the balancing
the stares

IT ALL JUST SUCKS... but its life

To All The Boys


I really dont understand what it is but it is starting to get annoying.
I understand that i have alot fo guy friends, but why do all these friends have to like me?

I honeslty dont know what it is about me, I am just a regualer person, just trying to be herslef and get by day after day but every new friend i meet must somehow tell me that I am pretty/beautiful and that they want me to be their girlfriend, how want to have those late night convos with me and all this shit.

The being chopped while waiting for the bus needs to stop, was flattering at first, but now just annoying!

I literally look in the mirror and say "this is what they like?!"

Heres a clue, I will like you if you dont tell me any of those things. I like boys that dont like me.
Dont say "I want to see you again" - automatice turn off!
Ugh I dont know, just be normal really, just be a normal person that doesnt like me.

took this pic literally 5 seconds ago (LOL i used the flashlight from the berry for the lights), but please I dont see anything here.

I am not interested in anyone right now but if I call/text/messsage you back you stand above the rest!

Tom, Bob, and Roy


In the game of boys and girls when people start dating and playing the fiels and gettign out there and meeting people I think that there are 3 kinds of Players:

TOM: He's the guy that only sees one girl at a time, and even when he does see that girl he sees her personality and wants to have a long term relationship with her. He is serious about you and in ready to settle and be loyal. And just an overall good guy
ROY: Roy is the typical player type. He is the one that talkes to you, makes you think your in a relationship when actually hes just there for one thing... you know, that thing. He doesnt care who he hurts to get in the way or how hes making you feel, as long as at the end of the day he gets it. he could be talking to plenty of people at the same time
BOB: Bob is the dude that wants to just have fun and to chill. He doesnt want a long term relationship, but he does want some cudi here and there, and who he gets it from understands the situation. They understand that Bob is a good person just right now, isnt ready for anything serious and wants you to be okay with that.

Those are the main players, but there are more:
JIM: Bobs little brother, wants to play the game, sees whats out there but doesnt go to home base yet (usually younger people)
ALLAN: he doesnt play the game at all. Hes alone, watching from the outsid

Right now at this point in my life, I can say that I am a BOB. Im just chillin tryin to have fun this summer, without getting myself committed to anything. Cuz I mean, Toronto's fun and everything but at the end of the day, summers gonna end and I'll be in Ottawa again. So Im gonna do all my shit this summer, so no one can hold me down or follow me with the shit I plann to do...

SHOUTS TO ZEEFAH! we created the name game together on Canada Day


ps. The pictures will be coming soon... its just that BreeBrees hoggin up the camera n I cant get them yet. But dont worry... sooner or later!

PhotoAmanda?




I think people respond to blogs with pictures on it!

thats why Im gonna buy a camera.
So I can entertain your eyes as well as your mind!

Mr. 100%

So being that I just turned single alot of people have been asking why we broke up and what I wanted in a guy... so After thinking about this long and hard I have come up with a list of qualities that I want my man to have:
  1. Tall: tall enough that even when Im wearing heels I have to look up at him. Also to that he can put is arm around my neck comfortably
  2. Dark: I want someone darker than me. (Noting that he has to be black and not tanned)Im not that dark, so its not that bad. I just think my parents would approve of a black guy, and I want to make them happy
  3. Handsome: self-explanitory
  4. Respected: Doesnt matter to me whether he keeps to himself or is the most popular, as long as he is respected among his peers and co-workers
  5. Basketball player build: Not too deezed, but has muscles. May be those guys that don't work-out but just grow up and have muscles
  6. Has a plan in Life: May or may not go to school, but must know where/what he wants to be and how he is going to get there
  7. My Mix: I just want my kids to look like me, so if he is Jamaican, with a grandparent that is Indian, another grandparent that is Cuban and somewhere in his family there is aisan, that would be prefered
  8. Just knows: I dont know how anyone would know this but i want him to just know when I want to be held and when not to
  9. Proud: I want to feel proud when I walk with youand proud to say your my man, and say to other girls "yeah, i got him, and you didnt!"
  10. Intelligent: must be able to hold a conversation with me. Conversation being the key word, we must both talk.

I really dont think that I should have to settle for anything less. I mean why should I have to? But yeah if this looks like you... let me know!

I really wanted to just leave it at a round number like 10 but theres more: a little but aggressive, and a cool personality, and is respectful to me and other women, and sees the personality in people and not just the looks

Ok NOW im done!

I know most of you dont see it, but DAMN... the things I would do to this guy!!

PS. I know he doesn't match my requirements... but look at him!

I was told not to look for Mr. 100%, cuz if he existed then he would be looking for Ms. 100% and I know im no Ms. 100%. BUT I think everyone has their own different 100% and I could be someones 100%, hopefully that someone would be my 100%... so I win
