Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssssshhhhhhhh!!!!

Damn... I been through it this past couple of weeks. Between wrapping up finals at school and moving(some big shit)my personal life, and dealing with people who think less of you, I can finally say that Im seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. It's blinding but it feels so good. You know when its cold and your walking and you walk into that little patch of sun that was put there just for you by God... it feels so good on your face and warms you so much.

Aight aight, so I finished my finals and I am proud to say that I have a mere 4 classes left at Parsons The New School for Design. I like where Im at right now in terms of my design asthetic and Im starting to really appreciate my work for what it is. Still finetuning my portfolio but I'll let you check me out in a little bit. The final came out to be a precise hybrid of Doris Day and Beyonce.... don't try to understand it.

I really dont know how I came out of it cause I was running on E for the last three weeks. 3 internships ( TSE,LaRok,Nicole Miller) 5 classes, and 14hours at Bloomindgales I had no time to find a place to live... hence the uncontrolable crying fits... in public none the less!!! I was going mad... didnt wanna go back to VA didnt wanna leave Stuy Town, didnt wanna move to a whole in the wall, didnt want to admit things I knew were obviouse. This doesnt even really deserve press but the long and short of it is that I came out on top. I dont live in the subway and I moved all by my damn self, I passed all my classes, and I have some pretty good options lying ahead, which do deserve press... so ....

1. Today my nephew/godchild was born to my best friend. Now if you know Ms. Broudy, formerly Ms. Engleman, you know she was so primped and so proper that even she didnt see a hubby and a baby in her cards just yet. But if you really knew her you knew that she doesnt waste a minute and after love and marriage, the baby and the baby carrage were not far behind. Im so proud of her and excited to see her in action as a Mommy. Erica being the first of my friends to have a baby Im even more excited because its kinda like me having a baby. Think about it... if your best friend has a baby, who do you think your gonna be hanging with and dealing with??? Mommy and Baby. The great thing about this is that I DIDNT have the baby!!! So I get to hang with the little man but leave him when Im ready to go!!! Im telling you being an Auntie/ GodMommy is the life!!! I have six nieces and nephews and I would go as far as to say that when it comes to the little ones, Im a professional. I know Ive been hesitant in the past but Im not gonna front... I look forward to having children in 15 years. This weekend my sister is bringing the little ones up to see me, and its gonna be so good seeing them. I miss my babies and nothing makes me happier than to hear them say my name or show me the latest thing theyve learned. Yeah children are some sick businees and as simple as they are they are sooo amazing.

I only hope that if and when Im blessed to bless the earth with my offspring that she (or he) makes me proud, cause thats all I ever wanted to do for my parents... make them proud!
