I'm Back
I wasn't gone that long and thank God for it. My mother is much better and is planning to return to the states the moment riots die down in Port Au Prince, Haiti and it's safe to travel. She doesn't feel safe enough to travel on her own especially since her health isn't all that great. (Price of food has gone up and the people aren't making that much more money so of course they're pissed.) My sister is surprising her this weekend I don't have a passport and I don't really know my way around Haiti like that so my oldest sister who's in the picture with me with all her bebe kids is flying out Sunday morning to go and get my mommy!!! YAYAYAYAYAYAY!
I was a mess these past few weeks my mother is my heart and I don't even want to think what I would do if something were to happen to her.
My phone bill is going to be sky high all that international dialing. Thank you for all the prayers, it's a powerful thing and I believe ultimately it's what helped me to escape this nightmare. I can't wait for my mommy to get home I know she's going to be annoyed by be being all up on her but she has no idea how much I miss and love her. My mother is like a man she doesn't show emotion so she'll probably push me after the first 2 hugs when she gets back. LOL!!

My grades were suffering I was depressed as I don't know what I actually got a C in my Humanities class lol students were emailing me all semester asking that I help them and then all of a sudden I get a C and I almost pass out. I brought the grades back up minus Journalism but I'm not even going to get into that. I think she is just going to have to curve the grades in all of her classes.
Weird things have happened during this time, I live in the hood and I had to hang my panties outside I did them in a secretive way made my own little contraption but guess what happened? Someone stole my panties among them my hello kitty and snoopy boy shorts. So, I had to finally put good use to my Victoria Secret gift card that I received as gift for my birthday. That store is so dang expensive! I don't think I'll ever be hooked unless it's one of my stressed out shopping sprees. Which I have had many!! I bought a lot of stuff this past month it's all the stress I tell you.
Yes that's something else about me, whenever I get stressedd, sad, or mad I shop. I'm not a great shopper though because I hate the mall and other stores so I just get in get out. I almost purchased a 1000 dollar television while grocery shopping at Walmart thought it would make me feel better. Then I almost purchased a Wii which was going to come up to like $700 after all the games and such. I was a hot mess. This time I did good, I only purchased a pair of Coach sneakers, some Nike's for myself, my sister and my niece, a pair of Jordan's for my nephew some Kenneth Cole dress shoes for my 2 year old nephew and also a Phat Farm outfit for him it was his birthday that weekend, and a digital camera
OH WAIT and my new MAC BOOK. I don't shop for brands, I rarely shop seriously unless something is stressing me out then money just seems to not want to stay in my hands. So of course after I purchased it all I just sat down and thought what the hekk?? They're 2,6 and
8 I think I get confused about their ages but point being they don't need to be poisoned by wanting name brands at that age. I went all of my school days with Thrift Store clothing I didn't know what brand name was until I could afford it myself so hopefully my stress doesn't spoil them.
3 Months have gone by since I had my locks installed and I'm loving my hair I have an appointment to have them washed and re tightened in the morning before I go to work, can't wait because these suckers are dirty. I actually forgot that it was my 3 month mark because I don't fuss about my hair anymore that's a miracle. I've had my hair in the same style for 3 months and I'm actually content. I did try some bantu knots, here are the results of that.
Bad quality this was pre-new digi cam:
I had a mammogram and a ultrasound for my boob, had a lump that wasn't too comfortable lack of insurance caused be to stop getting it checked then worrying about my moms health I put myself on the back burner but finally mustered up the courage to go and see the doctor on my own which was another reason as to why I didn't want to be on the computer. They had to compare the results from 6mths ago and now, and she says it hasn't grown but she also asked if I wanted a surgeon referral. My idea about it is if it's not broke don't fix it. So, no cutting anything out of me. The doctor found another lump so from what I got from her she want to cut them out to be safe. AHHHHHH that's scaring the hekk out of me so I'm just praying these suckers disappear, or just stay the same size maybe I just have lumpy boobies.
I have another stray cat, "woof woof" as my nephew calls the stray that has adopted my family brought us a new kitty, she seems to be afraid of everything and even though once she thinks I'm out of sight she'll come and eat she hasn't warmed up to us as nicely as woof woof has. The other day I set out their breakfast and she was finally eating and when I went to check on them I found that woof woof had punked the new kitty and took her food! LOL he's so mean before we actually started setting out two plates she would sniff around his food and he'd actually growl like how do you take her to a restaurant but not want to let her have some of your food woof woof? LOL he is not a gentleman at all. I punished him tonight because kitty looked like she was trying to give him a kissy kiss and he slapped her out of his face, so no meal for him tonight. I'm afraid of them still haven't warmed up to the idea of him rubbing against my leg but they both have a special place in my heart, I refer to them as mine and I actually speak to them. That's a big thing if you consider that I never could understand how people considered their animals their babies but I'm gaining a better understanding.
On another topic: I met a holocaust survivor and I read Night by Elie Wiesel for my Humanities class and it was an eye opener for me, I immediately started doing some research on the Holocaust and I have a couple of books on my reading list, I want to educate myself more on that time and on genocides period. It also has me more interested in reading my Bible.
The semester is almost over now, but a new one starts a week after. I'm trying to go through non-stop to make up for lost time, and I've decided to stay at my current school until I complete my AA and then transfer to a University, and complete my Bachelors in Communications there. Why? Because it's cheaper and I need to save my money!
Well, that's all for now but I'm back with a new camera that I love taking pictures with and a Mac that's stuck to my hip, so count on A LOT of updates! I have to get my beauty rest to go and see my consultant in the morning.
