Writings on the wall: Vibrate Higher
Sleep. Smile. Drink Water. Spend time with music.
Be honest always, so people who are uncomfortable with honesty don't stand too close. Avoid promises.
Appreciate effort.
Also, as you try to avoid miscommunication, or awkwardness, or tension, or the loss of a good vibe...be prepared for these things to happen anyway.
Women win, but it's hard to remember. Friendship is difficult because perception varies. External nonchalance doesn't change internal turmoil.
Space heals. Time heals. It's important to take off your clothes. Never put your metro-card in your back pocket.
Don't drink on too much tobacco. Hookah is tobacco. Bring shades, gum, something to drink. Liquor helps to clean out your system. Mary doesn't kill your brain cells. Save your fingers-pass the roach, ask someone else to light the bowl. Contribute. It takes a village.
Be nice. You never know who has the green.
Be nice. You never know.
When clique hopping, remember to hop. Balance. Maintain.
This is my face. This is my body. This is what I like. This is what I want.
This is what I want to learn. Wait for someone to teach me how.
Apples are good for the voice. Hot water, lemon juice,cayenne pepper, honey.
I am not a vegetarian.
I am not a socialite.
I do like grapefruit. Almonds. Sushi. Dark Chocolate.
Sushi.
Dark Chocolate.
Be honest always, so people who are uncomfortable with honesty don't stand too close. Avoid promises.
Appreciate effort.
Sleep. Smile. Drink Water. Spend time with music.
Love.

Writings on the wall: Got The Mind & The Muscle.
People have been asking me, left and right, "What's up with your jeans!?" "Are you still making them?"
My answer then, would always be that "I'm taking a break, just gathering inspiration from every where."
But I really wasn't inspired by much of anything. Which is why I stopped making them in the first place.
My head was occupied with soo many things that executing my ideas became one of my biggest struggles.
& then it got to a point where I didn't have any feeling re: my denim.
& I'm passionate about everything that I do, creatively.
It became a lost art, in my world. ..my little bubble.
...But then I came to Virginia Beach.
Which is like a rehabilitation clinic for the fast living artist.
After about a week or so, I was convinced that this was the Twilight Zone.
I did NOTHING whatsoever for about a month. x_x
I woke up, I ate, I slept. ...I'd read if I was in the mood but that was rare.
I thought A Lot!
Surprisingly, more about my denim than anything. about how I planned to make it FRESH this time around.
I was inspired by the fact that Virginia has NO style. At all. From what I've seen.
As Oprah would say, that was my Aha! moment. I could provide a fun & very useful service.
I started to feel colorful again. & I fed that by buying a few magazines, Making notes of things that I'd like to incorporate into my designs. Visualizing, constantly.
Then yesterday, I played around with a pair of my favorite blue jeans, and turned them into this.
These are LIGHT. ..compared to what I have in mind for you guys.
But it felt good to finally get my hands dirty again after such a long hiatus.
The have a celestial look about them. ..something like a Starburst Galaxy.
My designs are never calculated, so no two jeans will ever be alike.

Writings on the wall: I imagine I'm giving my energy to the world...
...into the worlds.
all of the worlds.
Erykah Badu is such an inspiring woman.
This is exactly what I feel when I come here to share my thoughts and findings with you guys.
Although blogging is such a trendy thing to do these days, ...I do it, because its therapeutic for me. I've been doing it since '07. I've always enjoyed writing. & expressing myself in a creative way.
Blogging simply allows me to connect with people who flow on a similar wavelength.
I appreciate all of you who read my blog.
I appreciate your shares on FB, your comments and your likes.
Thank You for following.
