New Hair Color

Since going natural, I am truly learning to deal with my hair texture. I have tight spiral curls naturally and straightening them, especially after being braided so long was simply a poorly though out idea. As I try to find straightening methods, here is what I have for you to see. I am trying a new system (as seen in the picture below) to see how I like the products after a 2-3 week period. 

Tan & Black Tights

I had begged a close friend of mine, a male, to enter a store with me where I spotted these tights/pants through the open window. I still love them, Texas summer and all. Also, it's one of my favorite color combinations on my skin tone.

Kanye West "Lost In The World"

I recently wrote a short article on Kanye West's new film project for his song, and my personal favorite, Lost In The World for Jungle Gym Magazine. I would love for everyone to go and check it out. It's brilliantly put together. I think you guys especially will like the dancing. Some people think it was not done well, but I think it is much more of an artistic piece than something to promote him as an artist.

Breathe

Breathe.

Look at the cell phone next to you and turn it off.

Yes, turn it off. Really.

Okay, just put it face down and on silent.

Do not forget that life isn’t built of electrical impulses shoved into a metal frame.

Read these words.

I am just as real as you.

Touch the next person that you see,

The very next, even if you must call it an accident of human contact.

Single out that one moment and remember their warmth.

That is life.

The warmth and breath of exchanged between souls in physical form.

Speak to someone in the eye and not screen to screen.

Say all the things that society told you that you shouldn’t.

Tell someone you barely know that you miss them and you want to know who they will be to you in a year.

Never let them tell you that you should not think of the future.

Think, imagine, dream and most importantly never forget to breathe.

Step a little closer to them and exchange breaths.

This is the only way you can know that you are still alive some days.

It is Tuesday, a good 76 degrees, and I do not have class for another hour. I cannot express how good I feel this morning. Not to mention, iTunes decided to be good to me and shuffle my library beautifully. I am sorry that I am behind on updating this blog. I have been sucked into an instagram black hole and therefore, I have a tendency to neglect my actual blog. I may just make an exclusively instagram pictures update. I have been saying that for a while anyways.
