bud light lime

well its been out a while now and imjust now trying it out, but i was really surprised by it. it has almost a sweet taste to it. i dont even like corona's but this taste like what i remember coronas tasting like, but much much better. i like green beers and dark beers, and now, bud light lime. lol. not sure how many it would take to get a buzz, but o well. its a good drink.

south carolina is gay???

wow... this poster has caused so many problems and i think its kinda funny. i have family that lives in south carolina and they are not gay... and personally, i really had never noticed a huge "gay" population when i have visited south carolina. but nevertheless... this poster has touched so many people, not just gays, but blacks as well(which i think is the bigger problem in a primarily black state) by the plantation comments and picture. i understand its all history and stuff, but whatare your thoughts on this tourism ad?

insanity

"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."

-Albert Einstein

i was asked why dont i try to make a mends with my father... and i used this quote as my answer. i know my father and i have both done wrong... everyone knows this and we can agree on this point. in the past, ive actually tried to make things better by talking to him and communicating with him only to be "shot down". not just once, but numerous occasions. so when i told to keep doing the same thing, expecting him to change, that quote was the first thing in my head and out of my mouth. i would like things to be better, but i cant make him change. ive changed. and i can control what i do, but its to the point where i almost dont want to call my mom at home b/c i know i'll end up talking to my dad and we'll get to arguring. im just tired of it. am i wrong for not wanting to keep getting chastied for trying to make things work? it wouldnt be that hard, if he would "do the right thing"... but o well. im just frustrated right now and needed to do something, so i typed.

are you serious?!?!

i heard about this a couple days ago and i just didnt believe it. ice-t and soulja boy getting into it. ha. im definetely looking forward to ice-t's new cd "gansta rap is back" coming out this year(dont know the drop date yet, but i'll have it early like i get everything else i want). but anyways., i have to take sides with OG original gansta... any one want to go against me??? LOL. we can get into a youtube war too. haha.

the 4th

my 4th of july was a very interesting day... i went to see my grandmother, my great uncle and aunt and some other family members over in forrest city, ar(one of the crime ridden towns of arkansas). all of my family lives out in the middle of the country on dirt roads. but anyways, my grandmother was happy to see me, it was a surprise. we talked and stuff for a little while. she has bought a new polaris atv for her garden/farm... its crazy nice. oh, and i can never go over to her house without her giving me some eggs from her hens, some food, rolls, etc. etc. :)

i also went to see my great uncle and aunt and when i pulled up, my cousions(dad's cousins) were outside shucking and cutting corn(yea, my family is a little country)...so i said hey and talked with them while helping them with the corn for a while. we talked about school, how i like it here in memphis, what they're doing where they are and stuff. i went inside and talked with uncle rufus and aunt rebeka... she was making jam from berries she picked the other day she said and he was just chillin as usual. i sat and talked with him, he told me some stories about what he used to do on the 4th. pure entertainment. i left and came back to memphis, took a shower and watched tv for a little while and went downtown to see the fireworks.

*shaking my head*... damn, 4th of july in downtown memphis... imagine all of memphis... really ALL of memphis on a couple blocks. traffic was horrid, after 30 min on the same block, i found a parking spot. got out and watched the fireworks...it was really nice. i left a little early b/c i didnt want to spend the rest of the night downtown in traffic... so about another 30 min later, i finally get out, and the city of memphis is dead... nobody is on the streets, it was like is anyone alive outside of downtown... but that was cool, i drove around for a little bit, and went to a bar/club by the university of memphis. it was cool, had a few gin and tonics and just listened to music... i kept getting approached by smely girls. it was gross. like they didnt have deodarant,soap or toothpaste... i started having to be rude... the girls werent cute, and stunk. before they even said anything, "i have a girlfriend" was the imediate reaction. all the ohh really looks were weird, but o well. i drove back home and passed out once i got inside.

that was my 4th

hmm...

well i talk in my sleep and probably tell on myself all the time. i remember a couple christmas' ago, i fell asleep in a chair and my brothers and my dad got a video camera to tape the "interview" of everyone asking questions and me actually responding to them... kinda weird b/c i was sleeping and wouldnt believe it if i hadnt seen the film. the best part was when my dad was trying to pry about girls or what happens at parties, i got really vauge with my answers. lol... i guess i need to find out what that is all about, sleeping, but not really being asleep. it probably contributes to the fact that i wake up tired sometimes.

i think my younger brother has me beat though on the whole weird things you do while sleeping... he farts in his sleep... horrible.

anyways, ive had my hair twisted for a couple days now and its cool... my hair is gettign really long and it doesnt feel like it(a good thing). i really dont have a goal on what i want to do with my hair, but i want to keep growing it, and im sure as time moves, i'll do "stuff" with it like this... little dreads(idk), im not a fan of braids unless my hair is really long and i actually have hangtime...(i used to make fun of guys with short braids and im sure karma is just waiting on me...lol)

ive been thinking about getting another tatoo on my back... i already have my intials in red ink that look really good, but i want something more. i know what i want to do, but i gotta have the "extra" money to get it done and "extra" money is hard to come by now a days. but yea, "be faithful to ye self" across my shoulders in black ink outlined in red will be nice...

i guess thats enough of my random thoughts for now... and im doing better on the nail biting as far as i know thus far. lol
