Volume 1, Issue 46, January 31, 2010: I ♥ Crystal Kay!!!!!!!!!!


Crystal Kay is seriously one of my favorite singers. I randomly found out about her while I was watching Full Metal Alchemist one day. She sings one of the ending songs for the anime and it's called Motherland, btw it is an awesome song.

Crystal Kay Williams is a Japanese singer and songwriter and she is part-Black American and Korean but she was born in Japan. She is fluent in Japanese and English but she doesn't know how to speak Korean. She has realeased over 10 albums since 2000 and she is now working on a drama series called "Left Eye Detective".  Crystal Kay needs to come to America. I think she'll be huge here.

Volume 1, Issue 45, January 26, 2010: What Should I Do Next?

I've been bored with my current hairstyle right now. I don't know what to really do with my hair anymore. I'm tyring to grow it out to my waist but I don't know how long that is gonna take. My real hair is about shoulder lenght but I may have to trim my ends, hopefully I don't have breakage. My hair is much more fuller and healthier, I've been co-washing my hair once a week, meaning I only wash my hair with conditioner. I discovered that shampoo strips my hair which is already very delicate, the conditioner is better for my hair type which is 3C/4A. It's a mixture of kinky and curly. I don't really comb my hair tha tmuch anymore, I only comb it when I'm co-washing it in the shower.

I thought about getting another weave. Something long black and waist lenght. I migth braids my hair into long long braids again. I also thought about just wearing my own hair but I'm probably not going to do that until the weather gets warmer. Winter time is the worst season for people with natural hair like mines, with the combination of the cold air, wetness, and snow its hard to keep hair healthy and have a cute style.

Volume 1, Issue 43, January 13, 2010: I Really Need To Get To Work!!!

So far, my first week of school is going well but I can tell already that this is going to be a very busy semester for me. I'm only taking 4 classes with 12 credits but I still have a ton of projects, research papers, and just work needed to be done for all of them. I only have class on Mondays and Thursdays which is wonderful, it gives me plenty of time to get work done and possibly work.

I still haven't started my dress for the fashion show! FML! I'm suppose to be making a colorblock maxidress thats red, white, and blue. Plus I was trying to make a nice Ankara dress or playsuit.It's hard because I've been trying to buy all my textbooks for school I almost completely forgot about these sewing projects. I need to get to work...

Volume 1, Issue 42, January 6, 2010: Archaic Annoying Wedding Traditions That Need To Die

I know that I'm a little late but Happy New Years to all who read my blog. All 5 of you out there. This year is okay so far, but I know its going to be a good one for me.

Anyways, I've been meaning to discuss something that's been bothering me for a while. Weddings. I love weddings, I want to get married someday, but there are so many stupid traditions and customs involved in weddings that I hate. What bothers me is that so many people follow these traditions without knowing what they are truly about. I've been doing a little research and I've produced a list of ancient traditions that need to go away.

1) The White Wedding Dress





This is the worst one ever! I never saw what was so special about a white dress. White is the worst color to me. It's so plain, it doesn't excite me and I don't have the slightest urge to get married in white. When I think of a white dress I think of a KKK robe for some reason. Seriously, what if you are on the rag while wearing a white wedding dress. The whole its tradition and it represent purity is complete fairytale princess bullshit. The tradition stems from Queen Victoria who reigned as Queen of England from 1837-1901. At her wedding to Prince Albert she wore a white dress. After that everyone and their mom wore white wedding dresses just because she had one. It became popular and for many years it became the norm. Actually, before Queen Vicki, women wore their sunday's best on their wedding day and women wore a wide variety of colors and hues, people didn't follow gay-ass trends and customs. Whenever I talk about weddings with friends oor family members they always get freaked out when I say I want a red or a blue wedding gown. Ladies, its you wedding, you can wear black, stripes, white, or booboo green. It's your special day.



2) Removing the Garter



I think this is a tacky and perverted tradition. It orginiated in the middle ages in Europe. Back then couples needed to consummate their marriage immidietaly after the wedding, with witnesses watching. Ew. An example of this is in the Marie Aniontte movie with Kristin Duntz; there is a scene where Marie and King Louis are in bed and there are people standing around them before they go to bed. The tradition was altered years later in which the bride sits down as the groom strips off his brides garter from her leg to show everyone that he's going to get totally laid later on. I think this tradition is wrong in so many ways. If my man takes off any piece off clothing from me, I would start stripping him write than and there. Yeah, so that's why I think its bad because horny people like me would put on a x-rated show for the whole wedding.



3) Matching Bridesmaids




Not everyone will look good in the in the strapless seafoam atrocity above. The maids had to wear similar dresses to ward off evil sprits and jealous ex-lovers from harming the bride; in other words shitstain brown dresses were used to make the bride look better than her brides maids.



4) Giving the Bride Away



Aw, how sweet daddy is giving his first daughter little Suzie away.Not really! Fathers used to use their daughters as currency to pay off debts and get into higher circles. Traditionally, when a father gave his daughter away. He gave away. Marriages were arranges back than and often the bride would never see her family again she belonged to her husband. Hence the surname change. 

5) Throwing Rice At Weddings



It orginated in the ancient Meditterran region, I believe the Romans and Egyptains started this. Anytype of crop or grains were thrown at the married couple for them to have a very fruitful and fertile marriage. This tradition doesn't really annoying me that much but it kills the birds.
