Then we went down town (yonge st) and did some last minute shopping for the fetes we were going to!....we thought we were going home...however REGGIE and DOGGYDog or however you say it ...wanted to drink with us...and made us late for meeting Deej to go to GLOW.

Soooooooo we went to GLOW (keep in mind we arrived at the club quite late) and as soon as we was in di place guys was on us like water in a glass...HARD. what can I say we was the life of the party...REAL TALK. btw JW & Blaze were doing their ting on stage...wid PALANCE...and everybody inna di club was palancing...sooooo we were dancing with guys for like a couple songs...mind you we tryna get away tho...cuz aint no one dancin with the same nig the whole damn night....we tryna explore...dannnnng....

HE WAS AMAZING. soooon after he did his thing. we was out! and onto the next party that night....

so we got our costumes ready making any adjustments that needed to be done and then deej did all of our make up..
since i was the first person ready I got my make-up done first

we got the parade around 11. During that time we walked around and we ate our jerk chicken and rice and peas..
We finally got in our sections !!! My section was D'Lizard hence the green costume! And waited to cross the stage..we all crossed to PALANCE :-P



After we crossed we waited for Jean and Dinah to cross ...the section Rajean, Nicole and Sheri was in.
Once they were done we wait on di run to jump up!!!
I stayed close by SOCA SWEETNESS'S truck (best soca dj right now) and whined to his vibes!!!


We were whining up our waistlines the rest of the day until around 7pm.
of course before we left we bumped into a few ppl we knew from back here and from the dot also.

Sunday
we woke up around 2 becuase we got home around 6am...we chilled.I had to stay off my feet to save them for FIRE FETE.
I noe understand why they call it fire fete...because it was BLAZIN' HAWT people were palancing and just whining wid noooo behaviour allllll night long!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! me and my gyal certainly did our ting...REAL TALK, :-P ...I went off by myself a few times to for a new scene...and I happened to run into an TALL old friend who use to play for CB b-ball team...also raan into ya girl Wande....seemed like she had fun. got to see lots of performances such as Buffy, Denise Belfon, JW&Blaze, Shal, Patch,Ravi B, and much more I can't remember right now..

Are you wifey material...?

I'm on bossip...havent been on for quite some time....So i decided to tek a look and catch up on the celeb news...
I came across a blog which asked women are they wifey material.
So here it is.

Most women today would consider themselves wifey material, but the only problem is… They’re S-I-N-G-L-E!!! Studies have shown that black men like exploring other options therefore leaving single black women that only want to date single black men… Up Sh*t Creek!!! So, maybe the question isn’t are you wifey material, the question probably should be what is a man looking for when he’s trying to find wifey!!!

5 Things Men Look for in a Wifey

1. Assess her personality. This means her personal characteristics, emotions, style and expressions. Her perspective on the world around her, combined with her level of self-esteem, can speak volumes about the type of life partner and future parent she will be.

2. Know how attracted you are to her. Physical and sexual attraction can mean different things to different people. To some, romance and intimacy are key, while others prefer more active and kinky activities to really make them feel attracted to their partner. It’s important that your attraction and chemistry are mutual, and sustainable for years to come as a married couple.

3. Consider her level of intelligence. Finding a mate mutually matched near your level of intelligence is important to compatibility and having meaningful conversations as a couple. How she observes the world, either casually or aggressively, her level of education, sense of humor, skills, hobbies and conversation style are all important elements of this assessment.

4. Determine how she handles money. Money matters affect everyone, and finances are a key factor in the success of a marriage. Pay attention to spending style, lifestyle, professional ambitions and financial goals when determining your compatibility when it comes to spending and saving.

5. Know her values and compare them with yours. Spiritual values don’t necessarily mean affiliation with a religion but rather a general belief in a reason and purpose for being here. Other values to consider include those involved with family, stability, purpose, religion, optimism, honesty and integrity.

These 5 things are not much for any woman to do, but lets be honest, there are some women who are delusional enough to think they are assets, when they usually turn out to be major liabilities and the same thing goes for men. A woman shouldn’t look at a man’s wallet and say “He’s the one for me,” because money can’t hold you at night.

So… ARE YOU REALLY WIFEY MATERIAL or DO YOU HAVE SOME WORK TO DO???

Do y'all agree with this..?

Shoes for Caribana..? :-S

is all wukked up for Caribana...and I'm trying to decide which type of shoes I should get to jump up in...
I have a few in mind....but any suggestions...?
Things I dont really wanna wear:
Sneakers..just look wack
SNOW boots...lol..there for the snow..
Boots in general...b/c they're toooo hott fo the occasion
Flip flops b/c there will be a lot of palancing goin on and they might come pon my foot..lol

So what are my options:

whatelse...?

SOUL-MATES!

Happy Sunny friday Everyone!!!

Right now I'm at work..thinking how Blessed I am to have 6 bestfriends....and I know what your thinking, "no one can have 6 bestfriends"....but thats not true at all...b/c I do!!! Monique, Rajean, Nicole, Lameia, Nehnika and Cinera are not only my bestfriends, but their my SOUL MATES, I say this b/c we as a "crew" fit sooo well with each other. Yes we have our ups and downs, (more ups than downs) and we learn from everything. We can talk to each other about anything, and the type of relationship we have with one another, we can talk about ANYTHING.. from good, bad, sad, etc...YEs we are alll soooo different...but our differences is what makes us fit and feel special together!

I think we are so strong b/c we all have GOD in our lives, and when hes the CENTRE of your being...nothing can break you apart...nothing can break US apart...

I love these girls much more then words can describe, and I just want to say I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH....and THANK YOU for always being there, whenever I need you guys!

Changes in Royal Jail, Saltfish and Sexy Marajhin :O

As a lot of you know I wanted to play in the Royal Jail Section of CNz 2k10....the reason why I didnt wasnt b/c it didnt have a waist peice or shorts..and I didnt want to have my booty every which way......BUT now they do....and it makes the custume look soooooo much more appealing with the Belt option....I'm pretty pissed b/c it was my number one pick...its orange which is sooooo bright and SEXY and I LOVE the gem concept.

They also made changes with Saltfish making it bling with slash of Blue (which is pretty damn HOTT) even more and the head piece is AMAZING!
Not mention Sexy Marajhin is EVEN Sexier...then it was before.

ILOVETO

Its OFFICIAL I need a VACAY. I'm sooooo tired of this place called Halifax....summer isn't going great for me here...the weather is sooooooooooo unpredictable...theres hardly no club scene and when there is...I see the same people out every single time.. when it rains all you can do is stay home...and suffer...and the fact our buses only run every hour is a JOKE
Its time for a change...somewhere like Toronto....where I see a different person every time I walk down the street...the Club scene is always TIGHT...where PLAYS REGGAE/DANCEHALL and SOCA and its a place just to get away from home for a bit....when I'm bored I can go anywhere downtown on the subway...even the subway itself is fun...seeing lots of sights...after the rocket underground stops....you can still take the bus....b/c most run til 3am or 24hrs a day...you can catch a movie at 12am in the morning...take a walk on yonge street alllll night...the shopping is pretty nice (better then here)...they have a FOREVER 21 (not like Halifax) not to mention you can always find a date (for the ladies who are lookin' :-P) ...its a one of a kind city!!!!!!
