I heart Tia and Tamera, I really do. They are such positive role models and I like the fact that they haven't <span style="text-align: center;">lost their silliness, they have always been a little goofy. It's not a bad thing, I'm a little (just a little) goofy too. My sister and I still act the same way we did when we were kids. No one has ever been let in on our inside jokes. Tia and Tamera just seem normal to me. Why is it always Tia and Tamera, why not Tamera and Tia? Maybe the same reason it's always Brandy and Candy, it just sounds better. </span><br />
<br />
The fact that they haven't let life take their light is great and who says grown women have to aspire to be bad bishes, serious calculating CEO types, or just above having good clean fun. Anyway they have a website and its cute and updated regularly. The information isn't ground breaking, but it's a breath of fresh air from the gossip sites and fashion blogs (with their some times very inauthentic OOTD posts). Plus it's like checking in on old friends.<br />

Let me talk my ish…<br />
<br />
<br />
When this season of the Real Housewives of Atlanta first started to air I couldn’t stand Ms. Porsha Stewart. She came off as a ditz and to be honest not even a funny likeable ditz, she was BORING. I couldn’t believe someone with an actual legacy would do a reality show. It also surprised me that she seemed for unlearned, I mean it seemed like she hadn’t read or travelled or lived really. The words she mangled, “perturd” comes to mind, weren’t even funny. <br />
<br />
About two weeks ago I started to actually feel sorry for her. She suffered from a “too busy being pretty syndrome.” It seemed she lacked not only direction in her life, but also a bankable or buildable skill set. While everyone else was going to school, working and or hustling she was too busy enjoying the perks of being pretty and bubbly and that’s not a bad thing if you also build on your talent or interests. People around her might have pumped her up and soothed her with the promise of marrying a man with prestige. <br />
<br />
She probably thought the way to keep him was to submit to him and keep him happy. This philosophy neglects our own happiness. I am a traditional woman and the bible does say that wives should submit to their husbands, but it also says that husbands should submit to their wives. This latter is the point Porscha missed. <br />
<br />
I don’t know her, duh, but she seemed so lost and grasping for her own identity. It almost seemed that she didn’t know what she liked or disliked. Her identity does not seem to be based on who she is and what she can do, but rather the things and people around her. I think she came on the show to find something to do, to find an identity. <br />
<br />
What makes Porscha’s situation even sadder it that the ladies tried to tell her to find her voice and she went so hard for her dad, excuse me, husband. Then the dirt bag took her dream in not allowing her to return to the show then filed for divorce papers according to rumors AND did so without telling Porsha, blind sighting her and make her look like a dang fool. <br />
<br />
Now I’m rooting for Porsha, I hope she has had her fill of humble pie. (Remember she was like maybe if you blah, blah, blah you’d get a husband and she said that was Kenya Moore old and irrelevant?) Actually, I wouldn’t mind if she returned to the show to show her progress or maybe tell the world who she is.<br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Well I have a melancholic temperament, but it's not a bad thing. According to The Four Temperaments Type via </span><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Temperaments"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Wikipedia</span></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">, "the melancholic temperament is fundamentally introverted and is given to thought. Melancholic people often are perceived as very (or overly) pondering and are both considerate and very cautious. They are <strong>organized and schedule oriented</strong>, often planning extensively. Melancholics can be <strike>highly creative in activities such as poetry, art, and invention</strike> - and are sensitive to others. <strong>Because of this sensitivity and their thoughtfulness they can become preoccupied with the tragedy and cruelty in the world and are susceptible to depression and moodiness</strong>. Often they are <strong>perfectionists</strong>. Their desire for perfection often results in a high degree of personal excellence but also causes them to be <strong>highly conscientious and difficult to relate to because others often cannot please them</strong>. They are <strong>self-reliant and independent</strong>, preferring to do things themselves in order to meet their standards. One negative part of being a melancholic is that they can get so involved in what they are doing they forget to think of other issues. Their caution enables them to prevent problems that the more impulsive sanguine runs into, but can also cause them to procrastinate and remain in the planning stage of a project for very long periods. <strong><u>Melancholics prefer to avoid much attention and prefer to remain in the background; they do, however, desire recognition for their many works of creativity."</u></strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The melancholic motto,"You have the problem, not me."</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Bingo, ding, ding, ding. That's me, not 100%, but very close more like 75%. I'm not one to believe that I have no control over who I am, my actions or destiny or that it's all in the stars. I believe that science including medical exploration, psychology, and the like are tools from God. Yes, free will can have people use tools as for good or evil, but they are still tools. Learning about new temperaments and personality traits and stuff is not only fun, but can also help find strengths and weaknesses in addition to helping find resolutions that are best for you. </span><br />

So… <br />
<br />
It’s been a while since I’ve posted. It seems like a lot, but still a little has taken place since last fall. I had good birthday, the holidays were fine; I made a turkey for the first time and cooked an entire Christmas dinner. My last project at work was a success, but I mean nothing life changing has happened, not even really a change in my routine and in addition to my usual change of weather blues I feel like I’m in a rut. Doing the things “they” recommend: setting new goals, writing a list of things to look forward to, making a basket list and exercising isn’t helping much. <br />
<br />
Results take a while, the race is not given to the swift, Rome wasn’t built in a day, yadda, yadda, yes, yes…I WANT IT NOW, but what do I want? ANYTHING! Ugh…just a sign that a change is going to come. I’m not in a bad place or sad place, just the same place. So what am I going to do about it? There is no choice, really. I’ve got to keep living, take it one day at a time, work – out by work –out, cover letter by cover letter, class by class and prayer by prayer. Maybe the key is consistently finding inspiration to keep going or maybe I just need a date.

Why wouldn't this translate to items for the home? I visited the site, and it does have great items for that modern chic look, but I was expecting more color mainly because I'm looking for an affordable duvet cover in deep dark purple. I didn't find what I was looking for, but the site is mos def worth the visit. Go to www.zarahome.com.

The designer explained to Styleite why he put Barbie in a skirt rather than a pantsuit: “I think just in terms of not being overtly masculine, a skirt suit is that classic silhouette that I think is really, really polished and pretty. I think pants sometimes take it to a different territory — a little bit sportier.” What do you think of the new doll?

I’ve been riding with Obama this past three years, but the last couple of months have cast some disappointment his way. I’ve had to write a letter or two. It started with the Troy Davis situation; yes it was a state issue but he could have at least acknowledged the situation. The same goes for Trayvon Martin; in this case I believe action is appropriate this is a civil rights issue. I can’t hide it; I was hoping he would acknowledge Whitney’s death. She is an icon. I just kept hearing Kanye’s voice saying “Barack Obama does not care about black people,” in my head. <br /><br />I’ve always used the argument that he is not the black president and that the reason the black community is may seem to be ignored in the national agenda is because we don’t have a cause per se. Gay people want the get married and Hispanics have the immigration issue, but to me black people have too many issues and we have gotten our “cause “together yet, but anyway. Barack should at least acknowledge our losses; he should know we’re an emotional people. BTW, I believe no amount of assistance from government can alleviate our problems, we have some deep rooted emotional and mental issues, but that’s another issue.<br /> <br />Oh and I’m against this pipeline thing, it just doesn’t seem like a good idea for the environment or the poor Americans who will have to build it. Someone will get rich off of this and the wealth will not be distributed. So yes, Barack is not perfect and I have to admit he has let me down, but he still has my vote.<br /><br />I’ve heard a lot of talk from black people about voting for Ron Paul and so<br />me people are declaring that they won’t vote at all; either choice is not good. American people, black people especially have this hero, great hope, paternalistic savior view of people in power which is dangerous because you will always be let down. I’m not genius but I understand the political system and the branches of government and democracy. A politician is a politician his goal is to get re-elected, but as voters we hold great power. A politician will do whatever voters want to hold his position. During an election things get sticky and heated, but instead of transferring that “Captain Save Us” burden from one man to another, we should make demands of the ones who currently hold offices. And let's be real Obama has accomplished a lot and these Republican losers are freaking scary and let's just be real, stupid and arrogant and therefore dangerous.<br /><br />Strides have been made in gay marriage, health care and at first the White house made a statement about not commenting on the Martin case, but I’m pretty sure President Obama was made aware of the angry black mothers and young people demanding some attention to the matter. So voices are being heard, just not the ones hoping and wishing to get saved, but the ones threatening and demanding action.Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3593607261827635464.post-70669532602159854662012-03-15T13:02:00.002-04:002012-03-15T13:06:46.767-04:00Solange for Carol's Daughter "Transitioning Monvement"So I heart Solange and I heart natural hair.
