reaching out, riri and cb, my beard and song of the day

hey guys!

how are you all doing this morning? class is cancelled so i got some breakfast and decided to write...well lets get into it!

so last night, i decided to reach out to an old friend that i hadn't talked to in a while. i had been dreaming about this person for a while now(not like that lol) and it was just eating at me that we hadn't talked. i no longer have this persons number so there is no way for me to even contact them and we aren't friends on facebook or twitter so i just looked their name up and and i found them. we ended things on a bad note and i just wanted to know how they were doing. so i sent the message. didn't expect a reply but to my surprise i got one within minutes of sending it. my friend is doing very well. living in a different country and is enjoying every moment of it. just thinkin about my friend makes me smile because they deserve all happiness and success. i'm truly proud. it inspires me too, because if they can do it so can i.

lets see...what else........

everyone has been talkin about rihanna and chris brown with the recent interviews that they did. i honestly have mixed emotions about this because i've been in situations(not anywhere remotely close to that) that i wish that i could take back. i feel for her and her family. no one should ever have to experience that and chris had no right putting his hands on her. period. no man should that. i think that the reason that chris isn't speaking about it in detail like riri has because he doesn't have a reason to say why he beat her. like if i beat a girl up and she was coming out saying this and that about what happened, and i had a side to speak on, i would speak so loud they'd be tellin the kid to shut up. but chris doesn't have a side because he was wrong and there is no excuse and there is nothing for him to say. i think that he could flip this and actually change his image if he took this more seriously, was more open about it and actually spoke out about domestic violence. become a spokesperson for it and actually take responsibility for what transpired and not act like it wasn't a big deal( thats the feeling i get whenever i hear him speak) everyone is sayin its great timing for rihanna since her album is coming out and that its gonna boost her sales but i don't really care about that stuff. say what you want baby girl about it and move on with your life. i give her MAJOR PROPS for saying eff love. i know that was tough, as many times as i've said it, its harder than it looks/sounds.

so i've been tryin to grow a beard for about 2-3 weeks now and its not lookin the way i want it to. lol my hair is sooooooooo difficult. i don't have normal "good" black hair. i have hair that changes texture if it gets thick so doing the normal things that most men do i can't do because i'll look like an arab with a dark tan lol

todays song of the day is my new favorite singer Michael Buble. this song reminds me of James Bond opening credits lol enjoy!
