the realist shit SHE ever wrote.

"Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people."
-Eleanor Roosevelt

don't you just hate when you talk to certain people and all they talk about the same shit every time they hit you up or vice versa. like nigga...nigga...really nigga...really!? every time you hit me up i don't want to hear your whole life story, nor do i want to talk shit about other people. fuck other people. let's discuss politics or news, and not the whose dating who shit but real news about our community and shit like that. damn...is everybody so dense and close minded?? or am i just weird as hell?? like weezy, sorry for cussing.

and i digress.

i am ready.

why are you hiding from me?
i'd quickly give my freedom

dear love,

why do i keep myself at your mercy only for you to constantly lead me on and dissappoint me? you'd think i've learned by now but i haven't. maybe there is no lesson to be learned but an experience to be shared. i don't get you at all, but i'll blindly follow you wherever you take me.

hi there.

my thought process absolutely annoys the fuck out of me. i can be in the car going somewhere and out of thin air i think of something clever to share with you guys but when i sit down to actually write, i draw blanks. no, this isn't one of those times. i just feel the need to update considering i haven't in months. nothing has been going on with me lately i'm still ,embarrassingly enough, stuck in the exact same rut i was in months ago. it's been a year and i've barely moved. well, i take that back. i have made the necessary steps in the general direction i want to go, it's just focusing on the task at hand that has me in a bind. therefore, i am here and not there. i really don't want to go into much detail seeing as though i always seem to get ahead of myself and i do very well believe in jinxing a situation. but i will leave you with that for a while until i'm comfortable enough to actually open up with the goings-ons of my life. i'm back in full half effect.

dot dot dot...

so as of late i really haven't been in the mood to blog about anything, the main factor is i'm pretty sure no one's reading this shit and the other factor: i don't have shit to blog about. but here's what went down recently if you're at all interested.

• went to see beyonce, but i forgot to tell you guys about it. it was alright i guess.
• my cousin turned 30 and we had a swimming party but i didn't partake in the swimming aspect, only the eating.
• thinking about looking getting a job just so time flies faster.
• never going back to chattanooga [hometown], it bores me to tears.
• call me crazy but i haven't talked to any of my "friends" in a month and for some reason it feels normal.

good grief.

here's a rundown of the things that have been keeping me away from the i-net.
1. michael jackson- i didn't want to see or hear any negativity surrounding his death, it's disgusting what the media does to a person.
2. internet- our box crashed so we had to order another one from at&t which took a long ass time to arrive.
3. laziness- pretty much self-explanitory.
4. twilight- OMG...the best book i've read in a long time [took about 5 days && i'm finishing up tonight]
5. work- syke...like i've ever had a 9 to 5...i'm spoiled.

the thrill is gone...

words can't express the blanket of sadness that's draped over me and millions of people across the world. we have lost a true pioneer of music, the king of pop, michael jackson.i hope in the wake of michael jackson's untimely death that people can realize celebrities are people too. the media is a trip, they put people on a pedestal only to knock them off the next moment. despite the crazy accusations and the spectacle the media tried to make of michael, he still managed to do his thing and create timeless hits that my children will one day appreciate like i have. so with that being said rest in peace michael joseph jackson, may you finally rest in peace. you will forever live in neverland like peter pan.

just a thought.

so you mean to tell me people are so against chris brown for going upside rihanna's head but these same people, and by people i mean media...black media...condone r. kelly's child molesting ways.

someone please enlighten me on how this makes sense because, i don't get it!!

the sky might fall...the sky might fall....

ever since i saw the trailer for transformers: revenge of the fallen i made a mental note in my mind to see it the day it came out. well, my wish is my command, i saw it today!! and let me tell you it's better than the first and way more action packed and a lot funnier. mrs. witwiki is a trip...that's all i gotta say. i don't want to tell the movie so i suggest you go see it for yourself.

and i'm not the one to get all starstruck but i saw chris tucker with his son and i respected that enough to not ask the man for an autograph or better yet, stare at him in awe like the ticket taker people did. they even followed us into the actual movie theater to sneak a peak. rediculous.

anywho, i wish this song was in the movie.

♥j.coco

yay.

my daddy's home from iraq and has been since saturday, and i couldn't be happier because now i can get a lot of things accomplished with him around, rather than my mama. i love her but sometimes she's no help.

book love.

act like a lady think like a man by steve harvey was the last book i read, since then it's like i've been going thru withdraws. anyone who truly knows me, knows that i read as hobby.

books that i plan on buying in the near future:

push by sapphire
midnight by sister souljah
twilight by stephenie meyer [$7 at SAMS club]
new moon by stephenie meyer
& god don't play by mary monroe [i'm a HUGE fan of her books]

yes i've read coldest winter ever & i lent it to someone and never got it back!! and no i have not seen twilight and i'm not going to see it nor am i going to see new moon until i read the books.

i'm such a nerd.

jack in the box??

so the last time i've seen a jack in the box commercial was in '02 when i lived in texas. and for that matter the only place i've ever lived that had a jack in the box was tx but to see the commercial played here in georga is baffling, considering the fact i did some research of my own and the closest one is somewhere in south carolina...mind you...i live in atlanta, ga. can you say waste of airtime?? unless they plan on building one here.

♥j.coco

it's just the pimp in me, a different me for you.

have you ever been listening to your itunes or ipod [asuming everyone has one] and you came across a song you've either skipped over or haven't gotten the chance to listen to because you have thousands of songs [like me] or the beginning of the song sounds so lame?? i have, and i come across that song about once every week because some days i go on a music binge, where i download hella music and then i forget about it until one faithful day, like today. anywho, have you ever done that and then you realize, "hey this song isn't half bad" and then it becomes your favorite song of all time or for that moment?? either this has happened to you or i'm just some weird junky.

btw: while everyone is on their drake shit, i'm on my cudi shit and have been for a while...until fame steals him away from me...then i'll be on to the next best thing.

don't you hate those sleepless nights

looking for some sort of insight
don't you hate those sleepless nights

i didn't forget.

today is tupac's b-day, he would've been 38 years old. one of my favorite quotes of his is...

"reality is wrong. dreams are for real."

not only was he a sexy man but he was very articulate and i often wonder what the world would be like if he were still here. as long as i have "all eyez on me" and "me against the world", to remind me of him, i'm good. rest easy tupac.

16 & preggers.

right now i'm watching 16 & pregnant for the umpteenth time and i just don't understand why young girls think it will be all okey dokey when they get pregnant. i'm single and it's hard dealing with what i deal with, let alone a baby. i'm glad they're showing the downside of being a young mother because these young girls need to know the hardships that come with a pregnancy. there are a couple of girls i know that have become pregnant and they were so happy at first and then the next thing you know, they've broken up with their boyfriend and they're a single mother. i don't feel sorry for them because that's a situation that could have easily been prevented. and what kills me the most is to talk to a girl and she's like "oh it was a mistake"...bitch please, you weren't on birth control and you sure as hell didn't use a condom...accident my ass. but you can't tell these girls nothing. all i can do is thank the lord for birth control and that i've made it to 20 years and 8 months without a baby.

oh and they just so happened to be shooting the first episode in my hometown of chattanooga, tn.

hidden agenda.

9 times out of 10, the guys that send me messages on myspace have a hidden agenda. either they have a girlfriend and tryin' to hook up with me on the flipside or they have multiple girls they're talking to simultaneously and they don't want to get tripped up. how do i know this?? because i've had a couple of exes that made it a conscious effort to delete every solitary incoming and outgoing message in their inbox and or when i asked for the rights to look through their messages, they hesitate, just to buy them enough time to rid themselves of the evidence. bottom line, guys are sneaky little sons-a-bitches but me...i'm on to their game like flies on shit. for real.

and i digress.

♥j.coco

time flies...

oh my word. like i've litterally been up since 9pm and it's now 6am. okay let me explain myself, although i don't like to do this much: yesterday i woke up around 10ish went to go take care of some business, came home around 3pm, got on myspace to chop it up for a few, then i decided to take what was supposed to be a "short" nap which turned into a 6 hour nap!! i woke up at 9ish ate dinner [pizza bagle bites] and hung out in the living room with my ma until 2am, came upstairs and 4 hours later i end up on here...look at this shit. i'm bout to go make myself some breakfast [pancakes] and then...possibly...go to bed.

my little piece of happiness.

i'm the type of girl that's easy to please, it doesn't take much to make me happy and i don't know anyone else that's like me, anyone that can sit and listen to music for hours on end, read a book for hours on end, have a movie marathon for hours on end. would it be safe to say that i might be ahead of my time?? or just flat out boring??

it's me again.

here i am again. i just needed somewhat of a fresh start on this whole blog thing because i felt it wasn't going in the right direction. but now i'm back, ready to share some of me with you, whomever [you] may be. anywho, one thing that's been really bugging me is that i've been single for a while and i want a relationship but there seems to be no one i'm remotely interested in. the guys i run into are so fuckin' remedial and if you don't know what that means then you're in that category. shit, all the guys i've been with are just flat out stupid and quite frankly, intellectually, not on my level what-so-ever. i figure it's time for a change in my love life and i can't force myself to like a guy just because he has potential because honestly, some of these niggas just can't be helped. lol.
