Behold...a series

I know I said I would start my Behold series, but I've been extra busy with life. And I love it. I've been focused and organized (even though I still need to clean my house, but I'll get around to that later).

*I am ready for school to really begin. I continue to realize that I only have 4 more months in Alabama. Such a bittersweet thought that crosses my mind. I have learned so much here. Grown tremendously. Experienced amazing people, sunsets, summer nights. They are coming to an end soon. The fact that I even experienced them is enough for me. I will treasure my thoughts for eternities.

*I got a raise at work!!! Hells to the muth@fuk!n yeah!!! My boss literally walked in a said "I gave you a raise. Effectively immediately. Ok cool." I thinked I smiled for 2 hours. SOOOOOO grateful and blessed! I was really trying to figure out and calculate how I was going to save the amount of money that I really wanted to save for my journeys back to Chicago and trust me....this raise will DEF help.

*We had a great time in Atlanta this past weekend. My mommy's 60th birthday and my roommate moved there. It was great! Spent time with my fav cousin and he put me on some RIDICULOUS music. Think about this, he has over 5,500 albums in his music collection. Not songs......ALBUMS!!! Crazy!

*On the search for the perfect graduation outfit. The shoes MUST be bangers. I'll let you  know what I find.

*I have a new roomie. She'll be moving in next Tuesday. I'll take pictures of her pretty lil face for you. She's an athletic trainer for the Alabama State football. Some of the guys from the team will be moving her furniture. I will be supplying the lemonade and cookies. ;-)

*Upcoming travel plans: Columbus, Ohio to see an old friend in 2 weeks. Chicago, IL to find an apartment March 11-14th. New York City to be determined. Chicago, IL to live, prosper, and grow on May 15th!

*A person that I kinda know through association sent me a random message and told me their tiny little secret. This person dreams about me! Whattttt?!?!? Are people really intrigued by lil ol' me. I surely hope so!!!

*Broke up with a friend the other day. Sad, but not really. I actually feel really good about it. I was talking to Kurtis about it and I had the urge to cry for 2 seconds. Then my soul said "be calm" and the urge was gone. Like I told this person and like many of my close friends know, I don't let a lot of people into my life. Yes I am a social person, but I reserve my friendliness, energy, effort, time, space, gifts, love, whatever to those I think deserve it and will appreciate it. I really felt like this friend didn't desire to be in my life anymore. I felt like this friend was so caught up in back and forth relationships that they couldn't see how much I was willing to help and be there for them. All I kept thinking when I was discussing certain things with my ex-friend was "What's wrong with being single?" It really sucks but so many people I know (or hear about) get consumed in relationships instead of focusing on themselves and learning who they are. Get experience in life before you continue to manipulate other's lives.

*Major photoshoots coming up. Too excited. I'm also looking into joining an agency. I hope all goes well.

That's it for now. This was much longer than I intended it to be. I always ramble. The moral of this post was supposed to be that I would begin my Behold series.

Peace is supreme.
