Its My Heart, cookie...

Here's a new artist that I've been obsessing over.. Meet Jade... She's a singer..down with GFC New York.. also home to Mickey Factz and Fki.. Her EP, entitled It's My Heart, Cookie is loaded with infectious lyrics and a unique voice that's sure to reel you in..

"...It’s safe to say Jade knows what she wants and she appears to be getting it: playing regularly all over the city to an exploding fan base at venues such as BB Kings, SOB’s, the Knitting Factory, Europa, Club Element, and city wide music events such as the Brooklyn Hip Hop festival and Howl festival, as well as having opened for notables Lupe Fiasco and Slick Rick. Along with her many shows, she has just wrapped up her EP entitled, "It's my heart, cookie." with production from J. Carmelli, Precize (GFCNY), and Inglish (The Cool Kids) and features Theophilus London...

'Jade is planted on the frontlines of a musical revolution of the mind, heart, and outer body. She represents a new age of honesty where the truths of our generation are derived from individual experience, not perception. Watch her fly'
– Trace Magazine..."

1st Saturday at the Bk Museum...

I've never been to First Saturdays before.. and Emily had to go for her class so I decided to tag along.. First of all, I cant believe that an event like this is F R E E... but i dont ask questions lol.. We got there around 7:30 and the place was PACKED.. We couldnt decide where to go first so, Emily and I headed straight to the cafe..

There.. we had some bomb ass mac n cheese.. although it was tad salty (haha)

We headed upstairs and met up with Wordspit & Dave.. andddd thenn.. the non stop laughter began..






Definitely going back next month...

Wale x Baruch..

So.. every year my school, Baruch, shuts down 25th street between Lexington & 3rd ave for Spring Fling.. Theres tons of activities, dope music, & one of the last events before finals.. Last year there were some dancehall artists performing.. like Mr. Vegas.. THIS YEAR.. its all about Hip Hop.. WALE will be up on the stage..

Sucks for me because I'll be working..

THE TRUTH!!!!

Hundreds of people get the swine flu and now everyone is wearing face masks. Millions of people have AIDS but no one wears condoms..go figure..SPREAD TRUTH!"

Is it ME? Nah.. Its really YOU..

I've been single a little over a year now.. & dated 2 dudes seriously during that time and the rest were casual.. With all this alone time, I've learned soo much about myself, what I want and the way dudes think (or don't think)...

Based on my friends' & I's experiences I have a theory (my girls laugh may laugh at me but they KNOW its true):
If you have your shit together, meaning going to college, working, & have goals, etc.. Dudes don't want you NOW, they want you 2-5 years from now.. When they're done running through the rest & want a "wifey/real commitment"... Then if your attractive/sexy, be prepared for the bang out requests..

Ugh! Its so retarded.. And most guys do some variation of that..

Logically there's nothing wrong with that type of thinking given that we're all young & single.. However, girls are emotional creatures.. It takes a strong girl to separate emotions from casual or sexual relationships in order to not get attached... I can do that but eventually, I want to let that guard down & have something real..

I think I'm pretty well rounded.. I go to college, I work, I intern, all while building my unconventional career along the way.. Plus I'm kinda cute, my dimensions are excellent & I have good teeth..

So why wouldn't a dude want to have an intelligent, driven, motivated, cool, sports loving girl by their side? I mean.. could you really ask for anything more?

Ill never understand..
