2010 (Check)
In 2010 I lost (a lot). I learned (to deal with it). I lived (without inhibition).
In 2011, I’ll live some more.
Simple.
Happy new year, everyone. Be safe.

Feeling like they are mad at you.
Being misunderstood by people you care about.
Being judged by people you care about.
Feeling like you lost something that was never yours.
Feeling like you’re doing too much.
Thinking you aren’t doing enough.
Not knowing if you should say something.
Worried about what they’ll think if you do say it.

Natural Hair Laziness... Oy vey.
I’ve gotten SO lazy when it comes to my hair. The past two weeks I’ve relied too heavily on gel and bobby pins to construct some sort of skyscraper looking ‘do with a few baby curls here and there. I would post a picture of the bird’s nest that’s up there now but I’m much too embarrassed to share that with you all. Just know: IT’S BAD.
Thank God I came...

Natural Hair Products I've Discovered & Swear By...
For shampoos:
It cleans your hair without stripping it of its Natural oils or leaving that “squeaky clean” feeling (not the good kind when it comes to your hair) plus it smells great.
For conditioners:
1)
It’s infused with citrus liquids and oils and smells like an orange grove (yum!) And the softness of your hair after just leaving it in for ten minutes is ridiculous....

Thanks to piecesofglitter for reblogging this.
The battle I’ve been fighting with myself could never have been explained better than this video. It makes me a little misty-eyed to be able to fathom that another human being could so eloquently convey my story… because it’s his story too. It’s like he pulled the roll of film from...

Night Catches Us: First Movie I Could Appreciate...
I’ve only done one other film review since I began this blog and that was for the movie For Colored Girls. I never really felt compelled to speak about any of the other movies I’ve seen this year. Not because they weren’t thought-provoking or “special” (whatever that means anymore) but because none of them brought forth such passionate feeling in me about any...

Relationships Editor: Demetria Lucas aka Belle...
I look up to this woman for a bunch of different reasons. If you read her blog www.abelleinbk.com or follow her on Twitter (abelleinbk) or read the articles she writes for Essence and Essence.com then you’ll understand. So, I won’t even explain.
But today I came across a particular question and answer from her Formspring which I think is SO relevant to young women today:
Q: Do you...
