Myron Rolle...is the shit

This first round NFL draft pick, Rhodes scholar, neurosurgeon-to-be is doing it up at Oxford University, putting off the NFL for brain power. I think I've officially found the love of my life..sigh (i fall in and out love twice a day). The 23 year old was called by Jesse Jackson and acknowledged by Cornell West, both agreeing that he is "the future of black America". This man plays no games....unless it's football. When asked what is motivation is, the Bahamian simply replies, "..its them telling me what i could not be." Click the picture for the article.

my real boo...sorry trey

Another Epidemic

First it was the shaving a section of your hair off trend.

And now it is leggings.

OK so let me break this down...

Leggings are one of the most comfortable pieces of apparel in a woman's closet....

I mean on a rainy cold day I will through them bad boys on wit some Uggs and keep it moving to my next class.

That being said, a woman may over do it with the leggings trend due to the shear comfort of them.

I have no problem with leggings.....

But when they become a main stay in your wardrobe or what I like to call a "Staple Piece" you have taken the trend TOO FAR!

If you wear leggings everyday.....you have gone too far

If leggings are the first thing you pull from your closet when you are trying to get your grown and sexy on...you have gone too far

If your idea of a hot club outfit is leggings and a corset...you have gone too far

If your best outfit has leggings in it.....I repeat

YOU HAVE GONE TOO FAR!!!!!

Not only is it a hot mess for you to wear them everyday and to every event....it is also a health hazard!

Ladies you know what I mean.....three words....FISH AND CHIPS!!!

That ish ain't cute!

So the next time you hit the club put the leggings down and pick up a dress.

That is all....

Forever Young

young girl (reprised)

I have always been so anti to these facebook notes that tell you to shuffle your ipod songs. I am a believer in choice, when choice is taken away what do we have left? However I do pride myself in being a listener to the universe, and when the universe hands you lemons you have to make limeade or some shit right? right....So i sit here and i listen to my ipod play through all these songs and I realize how horrible my taste in music is. JoJo? Young Money? WTF?! And to think I had the nerve to name my ipod "The Mary Jane Collection"...hmmmm. That reminds me, I used to puff puff pass and listen to a lot of Weezy F. Baby simultaneously, yes yes, I was a thug in a past life, so that explains the abundance of Lil Wayne...the JoJo though? so not thug life lol. I forget I used to be a little girl. Go figure. The most perplexing question was how do my parents make me feel, they apparently make me loose my breath, maybe they're suffocating me? whatever. There it is.

My favorite line in this song is too reverse racist to type...i aim to be politically correct. Does that ish even exist? Reverse racism? No...I think it's more of a natural reaction. But this is off base...

WHAT IS YOUR LIFE STORY? Is It Possible- Raheem DeVaughan

In the Feb/March issue of Complex, Kelis dishes on life as a mom, fashion, natural beauty, and of course her new music. Kelis is signed to Will. I . Am Music Group and her 5th album is expected to drop later this year.

A Heavy Flow of Technology

For all you iPad lovers......I pose one question?

How the hell are you gonna protect that large piece of technology? lol

Its too big to fit in you pocket and too heavy to lug around in a bag all day.

Well here is your solution!

The iMaxi hahaha

Here is what the creator has to say:

"With its durable vinyl outer layer and plush, quilted-cotton sleeve, the iMaxi helps keep your iPad clean and dry. Plus, the iMaxi's Velcro-latched, advanced wing design wraps snugly around your device, so your iPad always stays where it should. Best of all, it shields it from all those unsightly and embarrassing data leaks that would make any motherboard worry."

Its available on etsy.com
