Inspiration. I recieved some today. My friends and I were just hanging out, and we started sharing poetry. Weird huh? Check it out. This one is from Zipporah.

Blood Diamond

So many long for such a thing
Something that they themselves have never felt
They spend their whole lives searching for it
Hoping for it
And will settle for nothing else
Some hearts are lucky and burst with hot red blood
While others grow pale
Emptying bit by bit all that is inside
On the pursuit
This quest for the rare
To no avail
The simple man becomes a coal miner
Searching for the precious stone
Under rubble
Hidden deep down somewhere
It lies, the antidote for being alone
Little does he know
He will never find it

Superman by Five For Fighting

This song is ancient, but I've recently fallen in love with the lyrics.

Five For Fighting - Superman - Five For Fighting

I can’t stand to fly

I’m not that naive

I’m just out to find

The better part of me

I’m more than a bird…I’m more than a plane

I'm more than some pretty face beside a train

It’s not easy to be me.

I wish that I could cry

Fall upon my knees

Find a way to lie

About a home I’ll never see

It may sound absurd…but don’t be naive

Even heroes have the right to bleed

I may be disturbed…but won’t you concede

Even heroes have the right to dream

And it’s not easy to be me.

Up, up and away…away from me

Well it’s all right…You can all sleep sound tonight

I’m not crazy…or anything…

I can’t stand to fly

I’m not that naive

Men weren’t meant to ride

With clouds between their knees

I’m only a man in a silly red sheet

Digging for kryptonite on this one way street

Only a man in a funny red sheet

Looking for special things inside of me

inside of me ...... inside of me ...ya inside of me... inside..of me

I’m only a man in a funny red sheet

I’m only a man looking for a dream

I’m only a man in a funny red sheet

It’s not easy ... wu.. hoo.. hoo..

It’s not easy to be.. me...

Memory-al Day Weekend [May 22 - May 24, 2009]

Memorial Day Weekend means a lot. The Memorial Day holiday is a holiday celebrated all over the United States, that 'commemorates U.S. men and women who died while in the military service' [ Via Wikipedia ]. It is also a BIG weekend for any Caribbeans living in Georgia. Every year there is an Atlanta Caribbean Carnival, Guyana Fun Day, and many more festivities [rain or shine]. My family is very involved with the Guyana Association of Georgia, and every year we go to Guyana Fun Day for support. This year, Bee and I attended the event and embraced the culture of my ancestors.

Memorial weekend also means high school graduation for many students, including Kim2Bee's Bee!! Congrats graduate!

Should've Put a Ring on it, Chris

Look who it is... it's our two favorite people... and they're...

...hooking up?! [ Via MediaTakeOut ]

but... here's what a member of Rihanna's camp told the NY Daily News

“Kanye is all over Rihanna’s album — not all over Rihanna! She’s feeling [Drake] but wants to take things slow. Right now they’re just chilling.”

[ Via Ybf ]

i'm so confused...

Sneaker Pimps 2009

May 15, 2009. Tabernacle in Atlanta. Sneaker Pimps.

These guys were Kanye'd out, Both wearing the recently released Nike Air Yeezys, especially the one on the right... he's wearing two different colorways!

Bryan, from Lacett, also wore his Nike Air Yeezy's and said that the Yeezys were worth the camping out and the one-week wait.

Inspiration <3

So... I was bored in class (last days of school are SUPER chill,...sometimes), and i was looking through my agenda planner (how lame). A couple of the quotes of the week helped me feel better about life and they may help you too :).

"Other people may not have had high expectations for me ... but I had high expectations for myself. " --- Shannon Miller

"I haven't failed, I've found 10,000 ways that don't work." --- Ben Franklin

"It is never too late to be what you might have been." --- George Eliot

"Success is how high you bounce when you hit bottom." --- General George Patton

"As long as you're going to be thinking anyway, THINK BIG." --- Donald Trump

"If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude. Don't complain." --- Maya Angelou

"The way to get ahead is to start now." --- William Feather
