My Grandma Is The Grandma Of Life!

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of MassMutual. All opinions are 100% mine. I am excited to join MassMutual in celebrating Black History Month by sharing my personal #JourneyOfYou story of how my family’s history led me to become the person I am today and empowered me to create a legacy for tomorrow.

I’m Selling Out To Apple

I think. Remember when I put up a post asking when it became uncool to use Sony? Well, since that post, I have been obsessively looking for my next laptop. At one time, I was leaning toward the Microsoft Surface, then I quickly fell out of love, and I don't even know why. I started doing research and that's how I found the MacBook.

I have a strange relationship with red carpet fashion. Sometimes I watch it, and other times I don't. Same thing for blogging about it. Sometimes I do, and other times I don't. Today, I'm doing. My favorites are Taylor Swift, Ciara, Ne-Yo, Gwen Stefani, and Rihanna. Let me explain Rihanna: It was not love at first sight, but then on a second and closer look, I like it better. But I realize that I like it Read More

Bill Belichick: What’s Wrong With Picture?

The Super Bowl was this past Sunday and I'm still too upset to even talk about the Seahawk's loss. It's not just that they lost, it's how they lost --- an interception --- at the one yard line --- with 20 seconds to go. They should have handed it to Marshawn Lynch. I digress. The Patriots won the game (more like the Seahawks lost the game) and the Patriots coach, Bill Belichick celebrated and kissed his daughter on the lips in the process. Question is: what's wrong with this Read More
