Health Care Law

I must say that I disagree with the fine the government would like to impose on every U.S. citizen for not having health insurance. What if people can't afford to buy health care?

The Walking Dead

The Walking Dead, is one of my favorite shows that come one every Sunday on AMC. I'm a fan of horror, thrillers, and suspense. Zombie flicks are one of my favorites, so I own almost all of the series of Resident Evil and many more Zombie flicks you can think of. I enjoy The Walking Dead, because this is the closets plot that shows a more realistic way of surviving. If an epidemic was to occur to where a virus could kill you and once infected bring you back to life and feed on the living. A lot of zombie flicks especially Resident Evil has unrealistic ways of surviving, but I still enjoy them. I really enjoy Syfy!!!

Long Day

I've had a long day and I'm ready to go home and relax. Luckily, I was able to complete a lot of my homework while at work, so once I make it home I don't have much to do. It was nice not having a phone today any who time to head home.

Nneka Concert Was off the Chain!

I must say, Nneka was beyond amazing! I was speechless Sunday night! She had the crowd energitic and on the edge of their seats. Oh man, what made me even more drawn to her. Was the fact she performed in some pajama pants rocking the natural afro. She wasn't flashy and to me that says a lot about her character Her words touched my heart and encouraged me more to continue on my journey of awakening. The goal it to eventually make a positive changes before I leave this earth. Man! She was beautiful! After the concert was over the floor was opened, so we could finish the night off dancing. The DJ played some cuban music, salsa, and some African sounds. Reminded me of the music created during the Harlem Renaissance. My group of friends linked up with another group of people and danced freely. Haha...I even met a nice young lady and we danced the night away. She is from latin descent, so she was grooving like they would in her culture. I was throwing in my african dances and we grooved together, good times! I love events and moments like that. It feels good to just let loose and express yourself freely through dancing.

Awwww Math!!!

I'm a little on edge due to my last results on my math test. The last test and two quizzes, I didn't do too well on, so I'm not feeling good about that. I can't repeat any classes, because it will hold me back from reaching my goals by next year. Only solution I can think of is study, study, and study some more when ever I have the chance.

Erykah Badu One Of My Favorite Artist

Erykah is one of my favortie artist and I had the opportunity to see her perform in 2010 at the UCLA Reggea Festival. Her hit "I Want You" is on my list of favorite songs by her. You see can Dave Chappelle grooving in the back with the band as well. I love R&B, Soul, Jazz, Blues, hip hop,and anything soulful. I believe music can touch the souls of people and heal them.

Women!

I'm a women myself, but I have to honestly say. I just don't understand women and the decisions they make sometimes. Women say they want someone whis is loving, genuine, respectful, loyal, honest, and hard working, but once that package is presented to them. A lot of women shy away and can't handle what the package they requested. I just don't understand sometimes...

One of those Saturdays

This Saturday, was one of the best Saturdays, I have had in a long time now. I planned a all day hike with some firends up in the Santa Monica mountains. We hiked the trail that leads you to the grotto. I would like say that its such a beautiful site especially if the water is flowing. The water falls are amazing! For some of my friends it, was their first time doing something like that, so it felt even better to have exposed them to an amazing experince of simply enjoying the beauty of nature. No money spent, no flashy outfits, just good company, and nature. We hiked for about 5 hours andhad luuch during the hike. After finishing the hike we drove down PCH and spontaneously ended up at Point Dome. We walked the shoreline and challenged each other to just jump into the water. No one returned to the car dry! Overall this weekend was amazing and once we made it home at 8pm we all knocked out.

Sodium Lauril Sulfate

Sodium Lauril Sulfate is found in our cleaning and hygiene supplies. It can be found in our soups, shampoo's, body wash, laundry detergent, shaving cream, and mouth wash. The efffects of this chemical causes those hurtful bumps in our mouth called canky sores and also contributes to breast cancer mainly found in women. This chemical is derived from the coconut oil and palm oils, so its really cheap to make. With all this being facts, I ask myself, why would the FDA allow this chemical into our cleaning and hygiene products? The FDA is suppose to protect the people from harmful chemicals entering our food and drugs. That is what they are paid for, right? I remember reading a book by Kevin Trudeau called, "Naturel Cures: They Don't Want You to Know About." He helped answer a lot of my questions on why our own goverment would allow this type of activity by companies to occur. These companies, add these ingredients in our food and know the health affects it causes. I will end this by saying the FDA and the Pharmaceutical Companies make more money off of us, by keeping us sick then they do healing us, period!

The Green Book

I am currently reading, "The Green Book" by Muammar Gaddafi. After the attack on Libya ordered by Obama my curiosty came into play, while watching the leaders of this country hunt this man down. I had to find out why this man was wanted, because I knew in my heart it was not for humanitarian reasons. Come on now, this is America for christ sakes. America sat back and allowed the Rwanda Genocide to happen and worsen. Any who, after doing some reading and researching about this man, Gaddafi. I used mainstream media and independent news media, so I could compare and contrast. I came to the conclusion that Gaddafi was not as bad as American media protryed him as. He did so much for the Libyian people and Africans! Gaddafi makes a lot of good points in his book. One good point is when he says, "He who owns the house in which you live, the vehicle in which you ride, or the income on which you live, either completely or partially controls your Freedom" -Muammar Gaddafi
That statement holds so much truth that its sad. It made me ask myself, are we really free like were made to believe we are? I tend to question everything...
