Wednesday Crush of the Week: Jada Pinkett Smith

So I decided to start a blog once every hump day for a little boost to get you through the rest of the week. Hopefully it strikes conversation, blogging, gets you out of writers block, or maybe just as simple as a little eye candy... Enjoy!

I was marching were you?

So even though I had a ton of work (as I do now at 3:03 am) myself and gang of 3 went to Washington D.C. to march Sunday. It was only a hop skip and metro ride away from home so it was not as much of a travel as New York, Washington, Utah, Massachusetts, or Florida was for some. There were so many people young, old, and in-between marching it was just amazing! But wildly while I was leaving Staceyann Chin literally ran into me I was most definitely in shock and instead of saying anything I moved away from her. Ridiculous right? I know! Anyway my sister was the official Exploring Me photographer for the day so here is her work. Enjoy!

Counting Down Overdue Fridays 217days/31weeks

Hello beautiful people! I am coming to you from under my dryer. How are things? What's going on in the world of blogging?

So I've been so busy with school and my internship that I have not had time to tell you what is going on with me. I've been soo soo soo busy that I have not had much time to even breath... CRAZY! I've also been talking about making moves for the future... I need to stop talking about it and actually make the moves! But there just seems to not be enough time in the day... I know I know I have to make time.

Short term: I have to start with the resume and work myself up to finding out what kind of Social Worker I want to be come May 2010. Right now I have NO idea which is a pretty bad. But I have been talking to experienced Social Workers and they have given me some really good ideas. :D

Long term: I am already thinking about me eventually going back to get my PhD in Public Health. Next I have to figure out what I want to do my research on when I go back. But I have time to think about it.

So currently at my internship it is not what I expected but I guess it is going well. My supervisor and I's personalities are clashing BIG TIME but some how we manage to do what we have to do to get the job done. I've talked to so many other Social Workers at my internship and it seems like they have so much more faith in me and my work than my own supervisor. I've been patient and respectful but this week if there are no changes I will have to make some on my behalf... and that is a promise!

Home like is bittersweet my sister is doing excellent I have not seen her cry over life being so difficult in about a year. That is good for me because what I came back home to do is actually working. My mother on the other hand is being a complete jerk... (now i know this sounds bad and to some extent it is but I've gotten some very respected opinions about the situation and they seem to agree). A little bit before school went back in session my mother started treating me differently. Then I brushed it off did what I had to do and went about my business. But now 6 weeks after the fact I am slowly coming to my breaking point.

While re-twisting my locs tonight (which by the way I've been thinking long and hard about cutting my baby locs) I've realized for some reason my mother no longer respects me. And it is apparent in the way she talks to me and even in her non-verbal communication. I am trying to not dwell because I am pretty sure I have not done anything wrong and because I need to get through this semester and year without any extra stress. So home is bittersweet but I am thinking positively about saving money, getting a job, and moving out after I graduate in 217 days.

Anyway I should be studying and sleeping at the same time but I am comfortable under my dryer blogging... But I will take my butt right to bed after I stop by a few of my blogroll's pages.

Goodnight!
