KNOWLEDGE IS POWER, IGNORANCE WILL NOT MAKE IT GO AWAY!



TODAY AT MY COLLEGE, THE AWARENESS FOR WORLD AIDS BEGAN WITH A PROGRAM IN HENDRIX THEATER HOSTED BY A PANEL OF INFECTED HIV AND AIDS MEN AND WOMEN OF DIFFERENT AGES. I FOUND THEIR STORIES TO NOT ONLY BE REAL BUT VERY POWERFUL. ALTHOUGH MOST STUDENTS WERE THERE TO GET CREDIT FOR THEIR HEALTH CLASS I WAS THERE TO REALLY LEARN AND TAKE IN WHAT THEY HAD TO SAY , AND I HOPE OTHERS WALKED OUT WITH AT LEAST HALF OF THE EXPERIENCE.

THE YOUNG MEN STOOD OUT TO ME PARTICULARLY NOT JUST BECAUSE OF THEIR YOUNG AGE BUT THEY WERE STRIKINGLY HANDSOME AND ONE WOULD NEVER KNOW. I COMMEND THEM ON THEIR BRAVERY TO STAND IN FRONT OF HUNDREDS OF STUDENTS AND SAY THEY WERE HIV AND AIDS INFECTED. I DON'T THINK I WOULD HAVE HAD THE SAME COURAGE.

SO IF YOU ARE A FOLLOWER OF MY BLOG PLEASE WALK AWAY WITH THIS MESSAGE, GET TESTED AND EDUCATE YOURSELF, KNOWLEDGE IS POWER AND IGNORANCE WILL NOT MAKE IT GO AWAY, BE SMART AND HELP SPREAD AWARENESS TO YOUR FAMILY AND PEERS ABOUT WORLD AIDS DAY!

Is it Better to Be Mixed Race?



This video is very interesting, It looks at and explores racial differences, implying that there may also be an advantage in being mixed race. I find this to be very controversial, In Hitler's was suggested, blonde hair and blue eyes were superior, and this video suggests that mixed race people may be genetically better off.

Through the interviews there is a constant battle whether or not this is research that should be done, very controversial. There are so many different people in the world, but as the video said, we are still a young species, so the difference is still very small, although evident.

Another thing they mentioned was the different diseases among communities, I personally believe that statistics like these further separate us and make it impossible to look past difference between.
Take a look and comment what you think of this???

"Rated R"



Rihanna,WOW, I truly find this woman to be amazing. From her style to her undeniable talent she took the stage in London and killed it! I love her wardrobe and whole set of the performance. Her new dark side has come out and I think she is so strong and shining through now more than ever through her music. She come come across so many success and it's crazy to think we are about the same age, You go Ri-Ri!

"WOW TIME "-Subway


Our roots are like fossils buried into the core of this
World, I have been carbon dating my culture back to the
Blueprints of poets who have always existed
Because they did more than just exist
Yet we have never done more than just be
But I find my grandmother’s blood on the spray
Painted walls that you call vandalism
Tagged subway trains and brushed slang on the tongues
Of the city, who feared to speak in public
Because their silence has bought them sacred pride
Our flags gave us identity, so we sew them on to our
chest like the scarlet letter for our countries in America
Our appetite started boiling this recipe for the melting
Pot too long and now the kitchen is getting crowded,
Ethnic Evolution has made us beautiful
But their ugly fears have

Gave us struggle, we are stereotyped like book shelves,
Our history can sometimes be found in fiction
But our truth is riding on the backs of
Bilingual tongues and we are mixing up their kids
The reason separation of races will cease by 2050
Until then we will keep finger painting that sky
Leaving our prints for the world to look up
And earth will look at like a proud mother
For making her planet beautiful, remember your roots!

Invented Sex?



So, This video is hot in the streets right now, definitely a boner. I always though Trey was sexy, now I see that he is just a damn freak, which works for me lol, but I also adore the girl in the video too because she seems obtainable, he didn't get some small waisted, big ass redbone that is unrealistic, which says something about him as well, maybe the average girl works for him.

Bad Romance



Lady Gaga, I believe is a rising icon. I love her style, weirdness, and I don't give a fuck vibe. She is so unique is something that I think the industry is not used to, people fear what they don't comprehend, So I think the critics and haters just motivate to keep doing her thing. You go Gaga!!!!!!!!

Despite the heaven you came from,I will continue to believe that you were made in the face of the stars, because the planets in my nerves have never aligned until I saw your smile, and my hip hop song never had the perfect beat, that''s where you're heart comes in, He told me it was a spaceship, that's why sometimes I seem to be living in the clouds, jumping those cotton balls like hop skotch, Our love is Intergalactic.

Surround myself with Artists


Yesterday afternoon I sat down with a fellow poet from our organization and had the best conversation I have ever had with someone, for like 4 hours, Tipsy Teapot had to kick us out.

What I learned is that I can always rely on a fellow artist to understand this weird ass mind of mine. I always thought that my imagination, mind and thoughts were pretty absurd, but it's just that I haven't been able to link up with people here who understand my weirdness or where my personality and mind set comes from. I just want to thank her for vibing with me, Gave me inspiration that there are people around me that I can come to when I want to get away from the normal ones.

I just want my imagination to explode sometimes and paint the school with it like graffiti art sometimes, and I feel so inhibited in fear of judgement, I just hope to grow out of that and be fearless and take minds by storm with my words.
