Tag! Your It! ?&^%$$!!
Thanks to my boo-boo Golden Girl I've been tagged - Geeze!!!
Rules: 1. We have to post these rules before we give you the facts. 2. Players start with eight random facts/habits about themselves. 3. People who are tagged need to write their own blog about their eight things and post these rules. 4. At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names. 5. Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.
1. I love Anime - I'm addicted to it.
Last night, I was up late last night watching Samurai Deeper Kyo until about 2:00 a.m. (yes...I'm tired...but every episode and fight scene is worth it) I've also converted my lil' mamma too - she and I both are HUGE Fans of Avatar the Last Air Bender (btw, you can catch episodes every monday and tuesday night at 10:00 and 10:30 p.m. on NICKTUNES)
2. I am a Lord of the Rings Fanatic.
My friends made fun of me because I was never into the "normal" stuff coming up. They told me I was "weird." I love J.R.R. Tolkien - By the age of 14, I had already read all three books and was a HUGE fan of the Hobbit. I even have the collectors DVD for each movie. I also own the following collectors items:
The Lord of the Rings Monopoly Game
Arwen™ Evenstar™ Pendant
The One Ring to rule them all (with a necklace) - lol
Middle Earth Maps and Posters
Collectors Edition: Lord of the Rings Trilogy
3. My Blood Type is R.H. Negative - click here for more information
4. I'm very Lazy. My favorite thing to do is to lay around eat and watch T.V. (which I rarely get to do because I'm always busy)
5. My minor in college was Arabic.
6. I'm allergic to certain crustaceans (lobster & shrimp). But what makes this interesting people is that I still eat them. Yes. I eat them. My mother used to get so madd at me, Because I would sit around and eat shrimp, lobsters, crabs, etc. and start itching and swelling up in the face & throat and get red all over and she'd have to nurse me back to health, etc.
7. Out of all the women in my family - I have the smallest feet. All the women in my family stand atleast 5'9 and above and the average shoe size is 10 and UP! However, I wear a size 8 1/2 narrow and normally I can fit comfortably in a size 8. In high school, I could fit a size 6 1/2 kids in tennis (so I kep a fresh pair of nikes on the low-low)
8. I can sing. (Ughhh - I can't believe I just typed that)
My entire family sings. My grandmother and aunts all play the piano. My aunt is a song writer and upcoming artist on the gospel music scene, my uncles sing and play the piano. My brother plays - Everybody is musically gifted. - I just don't care to participate. I just like to listen.
I grew up singing in church from the age of 5 on up with my cousin Johnelka. We sang on the children's choir, the youth choir, the young adult choir even the MASS choir as youngins). We used to sing solos together. We used to be asked to sing on demand when we were younger (lol) ALL the time - at events, cook-outs, family dinners, etc. And to be honest, I disliked it a great deal.
I just didn't like singing in front of people (i know its hard to believe because I'm so extra and need attention - lol - but I didn't like it)
Johnelka still sings - As a matter of fact, I heard she sang the hell out of an India Arie song at a wedding this past weekend...
Anyway -

I'm addicted to MySpace.com - (and yes - its like Crack)
I've been on a leave from blogging for almost 20 days. It hasn't been because I'm busy. Well - I have actually been busy at work...but its been because I have embarked on a path that I never thought in a million years that I'd be taking -
I am officially addicted to MySpace.
Instead of visiting blogs...I now visit the profile pages of potential friends and old ones on MySpace.
For so long - I hated on myspace. I talked about anybody who had a page and dismissed the site as meaningless use of the internet. I praised and held bloggers at a higher level than the low-life users of the online "friend-space" - but now I have become what I've feared the most - I've become regular user.
I check my myspace inbox before I even crack open my yahoo or pocketpc.
Its gotten so bad that when I can't sleep, I immediately turn on my laptop and log-on to MySpace (yes-people - that is truly unbelievable...)
However - I will admit that I miss the blogger community while I was out on my little myspace binge.
There is so much that I have and wanted to share -
- My Accident (yes I was in another accident people - my friends now refer to me as "Final Destination" and "9-Lives") LMAO
- Why I'm afraid to fall in love again
- Learning how to break my shopping addiction
- Monique's Charm School Season and Reunion Show (and how it re-energized me)
However, I realized that I wouldn't dare blog or share that information in a "myspace- post or bulletin" with "TOM" and nem' - so that's the one thing that Myspace lacks...it lacks the sense of community & closeness that we have here in the land of black bloggers...
When I'm reading the pages of my fellow bloggers - I'm given a glimpse into the "real" and "authentic" them.
But most importantly - it is the comments/feedback that I love to read and get from the bloggers - it lets you know that you're not alone...I love to get the "I heart you's" and the "I feel you girl!" from you everybody...
I also love the fact that I have a forum to share my thoughts and life with everyday people - hell, I've read some posts that have made me cry, laugh, some have even stopped me from walking off a job or knocking a friend or co-worker in the head...so this blogger thing is good for something. LMAO
Also, I know that if I haven't spoken to any of my email buddies - I can always read their blogs to see what's good or if I need to place an actual phone call other than comment or email (when they are going through...LOL)
PS (because I'm still in recovery - if any of you want to share your myspace pages with me...let me know so I can request you as a friend as soon as I log out of Blogger...) LMAO
