Pressure Makes Diamonds, but what Does Judgment Make?

I remember where I was 10 days ago, in Chicago, finishing up a photo-shoot (fancy, I know), preparing for a night out on the town, as one of my melanin deficient friends would say “ready to get schwasted!” when I first learned of Whitney Houston’s tragic death.

I struggled with even wanting to go out at that point.  For one,  it was one of the main reasons I flew to my beloved Chi-town a day early, to really see what its nightlife had to offer.  However, after a struggle of internal backs and forths, I opted for a calm, less “rockstarish” evening.  Something about partying just didn’t feel right (It was ironic to learn that her peers, people who actually knew her, did that very thing that same night in the same vicinity where this tragedy had occurred).

My Hiatus

Hey guys,

I’ve been neglecting my site but with GOOD REASON!

1. I’m currently transitioning from school to starting my career.

2. I am figuring out how to design the site so its “more” than just a tumblr with a fancy url lol

3.  I’m really working on myself so my posts arent a bunch of bs!

I will still update from time to time, but I want to “re-launch” this site sometime no later than January 1st, 2012 :)

I hope all is well.

Everyday I wake up in my beautiful 2 bedroom apartment to an amazing view.  I make breakfast in my incredible kitchen with gorgeous granite countertops. When its hot out, I make sure I go and hang out by the pool and then sit in the sauna.

Intimidation: Most things in life aren’t as scary as they seem.  It took me a good 10 minutes to jump! But once I did, it wasn’t that bad! -Some cave in Mexico.

Takin’ it to the streets! A week or so ago me and some friends went bike riding.  I fell in love with this activity all over again, and it sure was a workout! I will be investing in a bike this summer to help me get in and stay in shape!
