It's not Ebonics!

I love the Urban Dictionary. Finally a voice for people who like to make up their own words! You know those words that you sometimes say and people look at you like what the hellz you talking bout? Well finally there is a place to go to find out the exact meaning of these words.

Words like:

Mis-Wave: To return a wave to someone you think is waving at you, but is actually waving to the person behind you. Usually results in embarrassment and introversion.

Guitaritis- the medical condition causing pain in the wrists after playing guitar hero for an extended amount of time

Gitgo- from the very start, or from the beginning

I'm Just Sayin(Imjusayin)- A phrase that is used when someone is offended by something you said. This phrase then removes all the offensiveness of the previous statement, making it all good.

Flirtationship- When you regularly flirt with an acquaintance or friend but do no more.

Cheese and Rice- This is a less offensive way of saying "Jesus Christ"

Redonkulous- Something that is waaaaay beyond rediculous.

What In the Chicken Chow Mein Hell?

So I received this e-mail from my mom of the types of food being eaten and served over in China during the Olympics. To say some poeple will make a meal out of anything is an understatement! I think I almost vomited a little in my mouth while looking at these pics. Just be warned before you scroll any further these pics are EXTREMELY NASKY! YES...NASKY!!















I mean they don't serve the #2 Chicken Wings w/Mambo Sauce with a side of fried rice over there?

I Am So Serial!

As Ms Garrison from South Park would say "I am so serial", if I read or hear another person talk bad about this here pic, I'ma have to cut a beesh!



I mean so what if he has a little bit of a pudge. That's why he's on the basketball court, DUH!!! Just leave him alone dangonnit! Don't let me have to pull one of these for Kanye.

Aaliyah

The anniversary of Aaliyah's death is this coming Monday August 25th, and I thought I'd do my own little tribute to her. This girl really was a rising star who's life got cut way too short. But I know she's now in a much better place. RIP Aaliyah.










Those are two of my fave Aaliyah videos. And EVERYBODY used to try to learn the entire dance from the Are You That Somebody video lol!

My New Motto

Over the past couple of weeks I’ve hung out with my niece who was home from college who has gotten me hip to a new motto in life. “I Can’t Worry Bout That”! You know how sometimes you’re faced with obstacles that you don’t have the time or patience to stop and figure out or even deal with? Well I just can’t worry about that anymore.

Your best friend mad because you look better in a two piece than she does? I Can’t Worry Bout That!

Your BF/Spouse mad because you were too tired to give up the goods the night before? I Can’t Worry Bout That!

Your co-worker mad because you got promoted to that managerial position yall both applied for? I Can’t Worry Bout That!

Moral: So the next time something’s really bothering you and you don't know what else to do, brush that ish off your shoulders and let out a big “I Can’t Worry Bout That”. I promise you, it’ll change your whole outlook on life!

*Sigh*

Have You Ever....

Been on the elevator and seen someone trying to run and catch it but you won’t hold it for them?
or
Been on the elevator and heard some people in your office that you don’t like coming and pushed the close door button so they won’t get on with you?
or
Been on the elevator and people try to pack on there instead of waiting on the next one and you sigh heavily or make smart ass remarks about how you hate when people try to cram on an already packed elevator?
or
When someone starts coughing on the elevator you try to hold your breath till you get off to avoid catching the Cooties?

I’m guilty of all four, what about you?

Goals

Everyone should have them. I have a few of my own that I would like to achieve in the next three years.

1. Become a published writer. Writing is my passion and I have so many ideas and stories in my head it rediculous!

2. Become debt free. If I can pay off Direct Loans and Sallie Mae(bastids) I'll be looking good.

3. Meet Kanye West! I MUST meet him....seriously!!

4. Have a convo with Lupe Fiasco. He, besides Kanye, is my fave hip hop artist and seems very intelligent. Like I could sit down and have a DEEP conversation about race, religion and politics.

5. Star in a blockbuster movie. I've always wanted to do acting and see myself on the big screen.

Those are some BIG goals. Guess I better get on the move.

Tar-gey

I love this commercial. That is all!

Sneaker Chic

I consider myself to be a sneaker chick since that's usaully the only type of shoes I purchase. Recently I got hip to Converse and how they have majorly stepped up their shoe game. No more boring plain chucks, but styles like these.









I will be purchasing the black ones with the skulls!

Why Yall Playing?

It's been almost four months and I have yet to see hide nor hair of my Economic Stimulus! The IRS came up with this bogus chart about when people would receive their money and then put out a number to call to find out what's going on if you haven't received it yet. After being on hold for almost an HOUR I finally said "F*&$ This" and hung up. I don't think they know that I have plans for that money. As Clyde from the Steve Harvey Show would say "I needs my money"! See video below, Clyde comes in around 2:25.


Ain't No Mo Chicken



Question: How the hellz do you run out of chicken at a chicken place and all you sell there is chicken? My husband called me after I asken him to stop on his way home and get some chicken for dinner, and told me he had to wait 10 minutes because this particular chicken establishment had RUN OUT OF CHICKEN!!! They had to go to their "sister" store 20 minutes away to obtain more chicken lol! I mean I realize I live in a predominately black area in PG County and black people, yes, we do love chicken but dang it's like that?! I feel that all chicken establishments should have a reserve bunker in the basement with extra chicken for these types of emergencies! Lawd help us if chicken ever becomes extinct.

I Ain't Hatin But.....

This could have been me!!



Actress Monique Coleman got lucky when she landed the role of Taylor McKessie in Disney's High School Musical. I have yet to see her in any other movie but she doesn't need to be. Why you ask? Because she has made a kazillion dollars off of the whole High School Musical chain!!! They've had world tours, faces on bookbags, notebooks and clothes plus the third installment will be released in theaters this fall. But the kicker is when I found out Monique was the same age as me!! I'm pissed I put my acting on the back burner because that could have been me singing "All for One"(yes I've seen both movies on Disney Channel, what??). Aww well I can't hate on Monique, gone head and make that money girl!

Dora be Teaching Kids!



Whoever created Dora the Explorer is a Genious! All you have to do is sit a child between the ages of 1 and 5 down in front of the tv and Dora will mesmerize them for hours with her adventures with Boots and The Map! Plus the fact that she talks in spanish. My three year old can now count to five in Spanish because of good ol Dora, which is an added bonus since everyone needs to at least speak two languages nowadays. Shoot I may have to watch some episodes so that I can learn what I didn't in four years of high school and two years in college Espanol classes *smh*.

Just Stop with the Sequals!

While enjoying one of my favorite pastimes recently, watching tv, I saw previews for two movies that somebody, somewhere, thought should be made into sequals.



Lost Boys, the 1987 classic(Yes I said Classic) vampire movie during the whole Corey Haim and Corey Feldman era. I used to loooove this movie even though it scared the crap out of me at the tender age of seven. Well someone in hollywood thought hey, lets make a another one!



I don't even know what the plot is and I don't intend to watch to find out. Some movies cannot be duplicated so just STOP IT!

Which brings me to Belly. The 1998 classic directed by Hype Williams which starred DMX as Tommy(Buns)and Nas as Sincere. The cinematography of this film alone should have won some type of award.



Once again some fool thought it would be a good idea for a sequal.



*Sigh*, I know somewhere Hype is shaking his head saying now that's some bullsh*t! What's next Set It Off 2 featuring LisaRaye?!? I mean is Hollywood really running out of original ideas for movies?! Well they need to give a sista a call because I have plenty of them. Hollaaaaaaaaa!

This book right here.....


In this searing novel, bestselling author Lolita Files tells the tale of a Southern family torn apart by the secrets it struggles to keep. Everybody knows everybody else's business in Downtown, Tennessee. Neighbors while away afternoons at the local bar, swapping rumors about voodoo, incest, and illegitimate children. Usually they're gossiping about the Botens. In this epic saga, Lolita Files unveils the hidden lives of three generations of the Boten clan, a family as cursed by fate as they are blessed with hope. There's Grandma Amalie, who's willing to sacrifice everything for her son; there's Grace, who manages to conceal the identity of her child's father for more than twenty years; there's Aunt Sukie, whose strange power over her husband, Walter, is matched only by the strength of her dark magic; and, finally, there's Lay, whose secret betrayals will set the Boten clan in motion, sending its members on a quest for self-discovery that will lead them from one end of the world to the other.


Now I'm an avid but biased reader. Once I find an author I like I usually stick with them and hardly stray to other authors. But my mom had this book in her library and the cover intrigued me. Let me just say this book was one of the best I've ever read. It's got family secrets, lies with a touch of voodoo all rolled up in one. This should def be made into a movie. I'd pay 10.25 and twenty bucks for some popcorn and mike n ikes *smh* to see it!

Let the Games Begin ;)


I figured I'd dedicate my 1st post to Mr Kanye West, whom I absolutely adore! This is such a great pic of him too. My name is Jazz and I'm a Yeezy-holic!!
