Through my eyes.

These are just some of the images I see on a daily bases such as the view from my door.

Random characters on campus

The boot on someone’s care

The many steps I have to take that always seem to tell me to take caution

And the wonderful faces of friends

Such a fufilling life.

College nigth at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts

These pictures come from Virginia Museum of Fine arts. I went one day last week for college night and the images I saw were amazing. If only I had a better camera I would have taken more pictures. However I did have my phone to shot out to blackberry for the pics. Enjoy

Just imagine for a minute that I did not live in Richmond. My shoe game would be on the 100 with shoes like this. I really am ready to get this show on the rode

I'm in love

I would buy every last one of these shoes if I could. But I'm to pressed right now for money. If only I could sell and get away with it. Anyway if yall want to buy these shoes hit me up and ill help you find them. Its a secret. ENJOY

Hey yall

I GoT A JOB. And Now I CAN GeT My CAR!!!!!

I'm so proud

This is a friend of mine from D.C and I had to take time out of my day to tell all bow tie wearing people to please go to his web site and get one of his amazing ties. They are a big fashion statement, and I support it to the fullest. Its time that the young black communities become comfortable with wearing more formal attire. And with these ties they can now express their creativity while being fancy. Much love X, keep up the good work.

Check out his Journal (http://thatspatchwork.com/pw-journal/) and web page (http://thatspatchwork.com/).

It helps to let others know

It’s been a busy week and the week just started. Not to mention that we get out of school early this week so we have Thursday and Friday off. Oh yeah I’m getting some much need chill time in right?? NO I have the most stuff to do. I still have to find a job so I’m going to be trying to go into all the places I have applied for because they are faking on the phone calls. I have a lot of group project to get done. I have to find something scary or cute to ware for my girlly Mariah Birthday party. And volunteer at the CDC center on Thursday and Friday. Check out some of the pics I took there.

Oh side note I call my mom to check up on my baby (Trina) and she told me she had just die at Tokoma Park in DC. I was so sad. Like I haven’t even gotten a chance to whip it yet. But she assured me that Trina was only dead for like 20 minutes.

But you know what is dead. Guys who have ex’s that they are still kinda with but want to be all in your face like they really have time for you. I can’t take. Just a little insight.

My modeling group CompleX had a info table today at the student commons and it was fun we have a good amount of people who are interested. And one of our old members came to visit us at practice and eat dinner at Shafer that was a great little escape from my busy life.

Oh and don’t forget when you get a chance to check out my poetic skills on my other blog at vmlight.blogspot.com.

Mama J's

This week I eat at this soul food restaurant twice. It’s just that good. I told my mom if she don’t start cooking more often I’m about to ask this women to be my mama. The environment is amazing.

I am seriously thinking about getting a job there just so I can be in that environment close to everyday.

My bestfriends

November 6, 2006



{This is from a project a class did with Sonia Sanchez.}


{I use three lines to make a poem}


[Manifest destiny is what I called it. Cold stained the walls. By luck you can catch another.]


I revised it on October 11, 2010.


So now this goes out to all my great god sent friends.



Running through a field of cold hearts are what I dream of.

In the summer I swim in shoulder high banks of blood.

And in winter cold stained the walls

Once in a while you will find a friend fit for a queen’s child

By luck you can catch another

That will swim dance fall into the same



Manifest destiny is what I called it

Others call them best friends

I call them god’s messengers



They whisper the truths of the world

Turn your dreams

Steal your last drop of love

Testing your ability



All God’s messengers

And you’ll be lucky to catch one

Highly gifted with two

I like these boots

For some reason these shoes caught my eye. But I would never ware them. I don’t know why but as outgoing and extravert as I am, I could not see me in these, but kudos to who ever does.

We blogging

Hit up my other blog, it’s a joint blog with an old friend. The blog is called

vmlight.blogspot.com.


Hear is a picture to give you a bit of inspiration as to what the blog will be about.

The good and the bad, It's all me

It’s been some crazy times but I have been making it through. No job as of yet. I don’t think these people at these businesses know how serious I am about getting a job. Like it’s not a choice for me I need one or I may not stay at VCU. Like its real life right now.




I found out that I am doing better then at least two people in my Spanish class. This is great news because then I know that I’m not alone and I have been putting in enough effort to not be in the bottom of the class. Side note I still have a B in his class right now so suck on that.



The school year is going by so fast. But I feel like this speed is coming at the right time. Because I would hate for these classes that I have to be slugging along, because they are not all that interesting.



I really want to get home to see my mom and my little Jayla (the baby she takes care of). They sound like they are having so much fun together. And my mom is having a hard time dealing with the recent death of her patient. Hopeful I can slip away from all my busyness to get to her and make her day.



I wanted to go to the A&T home coming but its just not in the books for this year. But hopefully we can figure out how to get a spring vacation in the books because I’m 21. It’s time for me to have some fun.
