Domestic Violence

All I have to say is Ladies, if that man is putting his hands on you have NO, absolutely NO reason what-s0-ever to stay with him. I don't care what you did, there is no reason in the world for someone to physically harm you. So please, please please NEVER stay with man that beats you. Even if he only did it once. Just pack up your things, leave, and call the police. I know it may not be easy but its just what you have to do if you want to survive.

I've never been a victim of domestic violence but I have friends who have been and it saddens me to see the things these women put themselves through when they stay with these men because they "love" them or because they're doing it for the kids. Love shouldn't hurt and kids need a mother.

25 Random

So this "25 Random Facts About Yourself", has been buzzing around Facebook for a while and though I did this a while ago, out of boredom, I decided to post it here. So here's a closer look into my head, hope you like it.

1. I've lived in Brooklyn for most of my life and though I'm going to travel the world someday I don't think I'd want to live any place else. Well except for Manhattan. But DEFINITELY NOT Queens, the Bronx or Staten Island.

2. I'm a LUSH. I like to drink and I have fun doing it.

3. I have a blog.(Duh!) Its http://brooklynsgirl.blogspot.com/. It's nothing serious, just something I do to pass the time at work. LOL

4. I haven't had a real boyfriend in years. :-(

6. If I could go anywhere in the world it would be Fiji. I'd lay in the sun all day!

7. I don't like being light skin. I wish I was chocolaty brown. :-/

8. I have a HUGE crush on Travis McCoy (Gym Class Heroes). If I ever see him in person, I think I'd jump his bones, then and there in front of everyone. He's so damn sexy. If only all men could look like that.

9. I'm still unsure of what I want to do with my life.

10. My middle names are Fayola and Desiree. I don't know what my mother was thinking when she named me. I think she might have threw some names into a hat and started picking at random.

11. For a while I hated my first name, but now I've just embraced it. After 24 years I guess you can say it grew on me.

16. My blackberry is dead and I think part of me died with it.

17. I was so drunk one time that I cursed myself out. I was staring at myself in a mirror (but the mirror was across the hall, and I thought it was some girl staring at me (but it was really me staring at my own reflection) and I screamed "What the fuck are you looking at!" LOL it was pretty embarrassing, but totally funny.

18. I love reading self-help books. (I need all the help I can get...LOL)

19. One of my best friends is someone I really didn't like in junior high school.

20. I am Trinidadian but I can't stand soca or calypso music. It annoys the hell out of me. Sorry, I just don't like it.

24. I can lick my elbow. Can You?? ;-) j/k

25. I kissed a girl and I liked it. LMAO j/k. My real last random fact is...one of my tattoos represent something bad that I did about a year ago. And it serves as a reminder to never ever make a mistake like that again.Well there are my 25 random facts.

Hope you all learned something about me. If not too bad. :-P

Color Oops!

I've been coloring my hair ever since I was 14 years old and to tell the truth I really can't remember my natural hair color. LOL. Anyway, I went to the drug store and say this product, Color Oops (see above), and I decided to give it a try, the last dye I used didn't turn out as I hoped and so I wanted to change it. When I got home I put this stuff in my hair and it smelled like rotten lemons and oranges but it worked!! Some of the dyes that i previously put in my hair have been removed. Now I'm going to dye it again, this time I hope the color comes out right. Wish me luck! :-)

I'm BACK!

Hello to ALL...I haven't blogged in over a month. So I'm back. I've moved out and I don't have Internet, so I've been out of commission. Anywho, I'm back, so you can all breathe a sigh of relief. LOL

Love Knocked Me Down

Keri Hilson's "In A Perfect World" is...Perfect! LOVE the album. "Knock You Down" is one of my new favorite songs. Enjoy!
