So first off let me wish you all a happy monday. I'm pretty sure all of the Steeler fans out there are enjoying this Monday with a lack of voice perhaps, because the Steelers have booked their flights for Dallas. PITTSBURGHS GOING TO THE SUPER BOWL, HERE WE GO. I'm so excited and not to mention, I have no voice LOL. But we are on our stairway to 7.
Next, I start my new job today and I am ever so excited. The hours aren't the greatest but hey "get it how you live" right? I shall have more details about it once I get off tonight. :)
Lastly, I went thrifting this morning and found some really great stuff yet again. Now at my old job, I really didn't have a specific dress code so my work attire was a lot more laxed than in my new office setting. So of course, I was faced with slim pickins in my closest and I ended up at the thrift store this morning. 26.94 well spent. I picked up two blazers, two pair of dress pants, and three shirts. SCORE. (pictures to follow)
Currently listening to: James Morrison, Undiscovered, The Pieces Don't Fit Anymore.
I hope you all are having an excellent monday.
Peace.
Helllloooo,
So I'm back to my regular blog rundown since I'm back from vacation.
Weekend Recap:
This pass weekend was phenomenal to say the least. I partied with my close friends in DC for NYE and boy did we have a blast. It was VIP areas, liquor filled, all around fun and I would so do it again soon, just not in boring Pittsburgh. I also strained my vocal chords because of that crazy weekend but don't regret it because I really don't have to say to anyone at this point. Monday Morning:
I received a phone call this morning that my afterschool program funding had been cut due to a poor fiscal year and I have been down in the dumps since. I really love my students and I am deeply saddened that our program was cut. I'm going to miss them all terribly. Now I'm stuck on the hill in a program with students whom I barely know, after school. I guess it's back to the drawing board. I was born to be a leader and I honestly do not want to be a counselor at this program.
Now let's get to the music portion. Hmmmm..I'm going to do two artists for this Musical Monday. The first one I know very well. He was my middle into high school boo and although we went our separate ways, we have been great friends ever since. He is making strides in the music world and I am so proud of him. He goes by the name of Cashtro Crosby, but I will always identify him as Jah'Nyah. I was pleased to hear that he would be opening for my second artist later this month and I immediately contacted him and demanded he get me an autograph lol. Anywho my second artist is the one & only, Big Sean. Goodness, just reading that name after typing it turns me on. I'm in complete lust over this man and just would melt if I ever got the chance to meet him.
Back to the music.
My DC drive was filled with nothing but Big Sean, Wale, Lupe, Cudi, Yeezy amongst other music. So I figured I would introduce you guys to a mixtape that has been in constant rotation in Yolanda (my truck, lol)
Title: Finally Famous Vol. 3 Artist: Big Sean Favorite Track: Supa Dupa Lemondae Freestyle Rating (out of 10): 10 ! Comment: This seriously is a must download ! Link: Click Here
I can not wait until I will be able to do a review on Jah'Nyah's first album. But here are links and other good stuff to hear some of his music. :)
Latest song: Jealousy (2011).. I freaking love this song. "this my new edition no prerogative like Bobby"
Weekend Recap: this weekend was hectic to say the least. I finished my Christmas shopping. whoot whoot.
I also managed to do a little shopping for myself. I'm going to do a haul video and post it later on this evening or maybe tomorrow. I'm ready to throw the dueces to Pittsburgh and say hello to the DMV, 6 more days! Ugh I can not wait.
So I have a slight obsession with Big Sean and I absolutely love this song. I'm not quite sure what process I'm going to do to rate the music or rather just give a quick bio about the artist and then post a link to the song. IDK. But for now I will just post a quick quote from the song along with the link to the youtube video.
"every time we fall out ill throw yo ass out but you just end up boomeranging back to me. what the fuck"
