He did what now??

He listened attentavily to his peers.
Silencing the thoughts in his mind.
Concerned more with his image than his emotions.
Denying the butterflies in his belly-
The sensations down his spine.
The signals were apparent,
Neurons firing in his brain.
Fireworks of lust go off when he sees her
But he passes her by.
He listened attentavily to his peers.
Silencing the thoughts in his mind.
He settled for mediocre,
Sacraficing his true desires.
Denied himself of opportunity.
Choosing acceptance over happiness.
What they think of him over what he thinks of himself.

Real Housewives of Atlanta: Season 2


Another season of drama from the Atlanta women. I believe that my excitement has stemmed from my utter anticipation. The anticipation of the show being added for another season. For a while there was no speculation on whether the Atlanta women would return. Well, the show returned but not all of its characters did. DeShawn Snow, NBA basketball player Eric Snow's wife, has opted not to return. It must have been too much drama for her, she seemed to be the classiest character on the show. She will be replaced by songwriter and former Xscape singer Kandi Burruss (in the black and white dress). For those of you that are just as excited the season starts Thursday, July 30, 2009 on Bravo.

The Wendy Williams Show

I have long been a fan of talk shows on daytime television. I have also found my self dabbling in the occasional celebrity gossip show. So one would think that celebrity gossip+daytime talk show would equal television bliss for me. Well, the Wendy Williams Show ( with her trademark, 'How you doin?!!') is less than blissful.
I have found her show to be uncomfortable to watch. The long pauses, incomplete sets, constant tangents, and somewhat rude treatment of the guests is more than I can tolerate. I'd always thought that talk shows were easy. That is until Wendy did it. She truly makes Tyra look like Oprah.
I hope that she will get more comfortable with the show before she gets cut off the air, again. But I'm not sure that she will be on for very long especially because she is in the same time allotment as The Tyra Show.
It has potential but for now The Wendy Williams show is like a car accident. You know its bad but you can't help but sneak a peek.

CHRIS BROWN'S NEW APOLOGY- I forgive him.. Do you??

Chris Brown did a bad thing. Which has become a horrible thing because of his fame and the situations publicity. He is young, fatherless, witnessed his mother being abused, and has been placed into a high stress lifestyle. This is not an excuse for his behavior but perhaps a probable cause. We also need to take into account that his manager, a nearly forty year old woman, had been engaging in sexual intercourse with Brown since he was age 16. The manager was rumored, not sure if confirmed, to be the person that sent the text message to Brown which set off the incident.
My point is... America is supposed to be the land of second chances. He is being judged a bit too harshly. Many of you have done horrible things in your adolescent years (yes, I did exclude myself.. I'm good!! j/k). You may have been a bully, you may have had abortions, you may have been an accomplice to a crime, sold drugs to a pregnant woman. Whatever the case, you were not judged by the world, you were given a second chance, you grew up and learned from your mistakes. We need to be less about punishment and more about rehabilitation. We cannot imprison and stone all of our citizens that made mistakes. We must help them to correct those mistakes so that we may thrive as a community or as a country. The more productive, contributing members of society the better.
Let me wrap this up before I get too off track.
Final statement: I forgive Chris Brown. I wish him the best.
