I really do want to know more about you guys so If you could do this it would be appreciated. If not then that too is understandable. Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.
Also if you have already done one of these and don't feel like doing another then just leave me a comment letting me know and I will check yours out.
I'm not sure if I can come up with 25 but I'll try.
1- I love music, wholly and completely but I lack a lot of faith in myself and tend to think I'm not good enough.
2- I thought over the break that I should've doubled in Music and Psychology but I'm not sure...
3- I love Cheney but I'm jealous of the Clive Booth people because they have real friendships over there and over here most people or such typically bitches.
4- I've never had a lot of guys friends but I've always wanted to get to know more of them because they are much more complex and girly then girls will ever be.
5- I love my Godson. He's a gift to us all and we'll learn a lot from him. I hope he grows right and treats his mother even better and shows all of us and his family that he can be that Caymanian Dream.
6- I Love you so much I really do and I'm proud of everything that you've accomplished so far and you're mother was right that heroes day. Never doubt yourself because you are so special and so strong and you are loved so much by so many people. I am so sorry I am so confused but you should know that I Love You regardless and I never want to lose you. EVER!
7- One of my flat mates moved out and I'm sad because I liked him and wanted to get to know him. The other flat mate is a tad bit nasty in the kitchen which really does annoy me and people need to start using there own shit!!!!
8- I hate being lonely. I have a serious fear of loneliness.
9- I'm a great friend and it's not an ego boost but I just love being around people and having people that I can trust and turn to. If you're my friend I'm there for you completely regardless of what it is and I will tell you the truth no matter how hard it is because I would want you to do it for me.
10- With that said...I don't trust easy. But even with all the bad experiences I have there are two people in my life at this very moment that I can trust completely outside of family and I thank you two for that because it doesn't come easy.
11-I love to help people and it first started as a way of running from my problems but honestly I just really love helping people out. Even if I can't I just love being that support, the person they talk to even if talking and listening is all they need.
12- I love to hear gapseed (gossip for all the non caribbean peeps) but I promise I don't spread it...I would tell Jesanna though and Lani too but nobody else!
13- I sometimes can't throw things out because I have attached an unnecessary sentimental value to it.
14- I don't really like bear but I'm trying to like Red Stripe as that's the only one I think can be my friend. Maybe Corona but really that doesn't taste any different then the others.
15- While I don't miss my island I miss my people. Sometimes I think that makes me a bad Caymanian but as some of you might know I have some serious problems with my country's history.
16- I don't like eating turtle because well it's a turtle, even if it does taste good.
17- I'm scared of sleep.
18- I hate 9am starts, especially on a Friday.
19- I love my four day weekend, but I might hate it within a month as I'll have so much time on my hands but it might be useful when it's coming down to crunch time.
20- I wish me and my sister were closer but with that said I find myself not doing too much to encourage that. I'm almost 20 and she's almost 13 why is it so uncomfortable?
21-I'm actually starting to like my father. It's weird to put that in print. I haven't reached love yet but like is definitely there.
22- With age comes Wisdom and I'm starting to see that now!
23- I've never really liked myself and therefore I have really low self esteem and self confidence but I kind of see that changing now, hopefully because hating yourself never makes your life easier. I love my body the way it is but not with all the extra baggage. I have a nice shape a really good shape I need to get healthier.
24-I want to look back on University and look at it as a time that taught me a lot about myself people and how to deal with the world. I want to make friends that will be my friends throughout my life no mater how far apart me are and I want to have experiences that we'll talk about forever with our families and children and grandchildren. I've never really been in a relationship so I want to meet to man who will reassure me to not lose faith in the male sex. I want to love, I want to laugh, I want to cry and I want live.
25- I feel different. A Good different. A fun different. I feel as if I'm ready to come out of my shell and show people just what I'm like. Charismatic, annoying and supportive. I don't care if I annoy you throughout this process cause if you don't like me then just leave me. I'm not changing my values or my personality, I'm just trying to be a better, nicer, bubblier, confident, supportive person. The person she knows I am.
I'm not afraid to say this to these people I just haven't had the chance as yet.
Stop it. There is no need for you to be intimidated by us, by ME. I know you know what we're like and that's part of the problem but while you were gone, while you abandoned us we did a lot of growing up and I for one have changed a lot. While I wish I could bitch slap some sense into you, it's way past that time. I never gave you an ultimatum but you made your choice and whatever happens you have no one to blame but yourself and no one to thank but yourself. You put us all through hell and while I have come to terms with it the hurt never stops. I sincerely hope he never turns out like his father.
You are the exact type of person that can get addicted to anything because your emotional system is so low. When you ask for our help you don't even take what we say into consideration because you're purpose, you're addiction takes over so much. Your body is so susceptible to anything you take in and you crave for more. We are all afraid for you but no matter what we say unless something bad happens you never snap out of it. I sincerely hope he treats you better this time than the last time. I sincerely hope that he doesn't get you hooked into anything you shouldn't be in. We all have problems but we need help and the reason she left with him and hurt us all was because she couldn't deal with her problems. Stop putting man before friends...before family, especially when he's hurt you so bad once before. Just lean on us that's why we're here.
You hurt me so much that night, so much. You knew what you were doing and you still did it. I will never be over that never but still I continue to be your friend and everyday I wish I could take it and throw it in your face, everyday I wish I could just mention it as a diss but secretly hope that it hurts you. I know you've been through this before but you will never know just how bad you hurt me that night. You will never know exactly how much pain and torment I went through last summer and how damaging it was for me. You ruined it for me, four months in darkness and it really did a number on me. I still love you, I always will and you know that. I'm here for you non-stop and I'm here for him as well. I just wish things were different and maybe then we could have a chance of actually being together and taking it further. But you messed it up and that sucks. I can't explain it but even with all the hurt I still love you more than I did before and I wish you all the best cause I know how hard you work and all that you do. I love you and you love me and for these past six years we have shown each other why we are each other's person and I wouldn't take it back for anything. I know you're true and one of the things that proves that is the whole relationship with Muffin. You showed me just how true you really are and I appreciate you for that. I Love You! Forever and For Always!
I'm the girl who wants to be unique but doesn't do anything to strive for it because I feel as if I have something special that has yet been untapped but because I'm so insecure I'm too scared to find out if I'm right.
Unfortunately with those insecurities comes low confidence and esteem but as sad as it might sound it's okay because I know that I am beautiful at least I tend to think that way sometimes my problem comes in when I try to make the world believe I am when really who gives a shit. Confidence goes a long way when you just believe in yourself and through that you can get a lot out of the world you never thought you could. Slowly but surely I guarantee Uni will make me figure out who I am.
I'm the girl who is destined for greatness. I know and yet I still can't seem to tap into my potential. Imagine being told that for so much years...O you're so smart and you have no idea your true potential you're just not reaching it. *ugh* ...reach it!
I'm the girl who loves music. If I could breathe eat and sleep it I would. While I am studying music I still lack the confidence and commitment to take me to that extra level which I so desperately need to work on. I'm a good flute player but I know I can be great. I can sing I know I can I just have to muster up the confidence to take those lessons and try to get somewhere with it. I know I have a hard time understanding theory but then I don't go out and try to understand these things by myself.
I'm the girl who loves her best friend and who loves her Lani who would be considered my 3rd right hand if she would have me. I'm passionate with my friendships and I consider those close to me my family because when you look at the bonds you develop from friendships most of the time those people are glued to you as your family are and for some they become the family you never had.
I'm the girl who has a great sense of fashion but doesn't think the stores make enough clothes for her body but at the same time is afraid to find out because she's afraid of rejection, not from society but from herself.
I'm the girl who doesn't know what it is to have a father because hers walked out on her at a young age choosing to pay attention to her younger sister and forgetting about her. I'm the girl who today at 19 years of age is just recovering from this hurt, trying to forge a relationship and slowly succeeding.
I'm the girl who is searching for that someone special, whether they become my life partner or a time in my history that I can look back on and say I learnt so much and loved so hard and I wouldn't take it back for a thing. I'm a girl who is afraid of finding someone like her father but isn't letting that stop her from trying. I'm the girl who just wants someone to love me, treat me right, respect me, understand and be there for me. And of course they have got to make me laugh.
I'm the girl who has been searching for spiritual enlightenment for so long but still hasn't started her search yet. I need to be sound spiritually but the only way to do that would be to search for that connection.
I'm the girl who loves her mom and while I certainly might not act like it all the time there is no question no doubt in my mind. She's the only one who was constantly there for me and she's the woman who molded me. Even though there are plenty cracks she has taught me how to rise above and seal them. She taught me to be the woman we were created to be not taking any shit from any man no matter who they are. She taught me to not let anyone disrespect me because regardless of how I think of myself I am valued.
I'm the girl whose family has stuck through her and supported her and made her as successful as she is now. They have sacrificed a lot for me so that I can have what they never did and I love them all for that and I take great pride in them and their purpose.
I'm the girl who has the bestest best friend in the world because even with all the heartache I have gotten from that friendship, they cannot and will not overshadow the good times. I love you for all that you are faults and all and you are the best person anyone can have as a friend. You have the biggest heart and I recognise that and even though things happen, that big heart makes a world of difference.
I am the girl that has been beaten down to the lowest in her emotions and with confidence and friendships and heartaches but still I have overcome and am I much better person for this.
I am the girl who got WHIPLASH from a sneeze and therefore couldn't go mini golfing.
I am the girl who aspires to be as good of a writer as the woman whose blog I am posting this extremely long comment on, BarelyJen.
I am the girl who is now going to turn this comment into a blog post because I have been inspired and truthfully it's ridiculously long for a comment!
It's funny how and when inspiration strikes isn't it?!
So I was on the main page of Xanga and saw Dare2BeDifferentt's weblog entry and I decided to write my own as well since I haven't done much of anything lately.
Abortion
I think abortion should be legal only for victims of sexual abuse (which includes rape and incest among others) and in cases where the pregnancy would be harmful to the mother and/or the child. It's one thing to say women have the right to do what they want with their body but it's a case of making sure you're securely protected, birth control along with condoms. While protection doesn't always work I still think in some cases abortions are just a cop out. If you can't handle all that can come with having sex then you should think twice before actually having it. Another thing I have realised is that a lot of people don't use condoms while they are on birth control but people have to realise that these days there are worse things that can happen other than pregnancy and we have to be mindful of that.
Religion
My family is predominantly Christian and while I am not baptised I hope to be one day even though at the moment there are times when I don't live my life like I want to be in that position. I do however believe that Christians tend to make things a lot worse for them by acting snobbish and holier than thou. I also believe that the people of the Church are some of the most hypocritical out there but you can't persecute mankind for being just that human it happens but some people need to really look at themselves and how they are presenting themselves to society. Also religions are beliefs and regardless of whether you're Agnostic, Atheist or you belong to a certain Religion you have a belief, whatever it is, all these denominations are governed by beliefs.
Race
I'm a black female. I'm not African American because for one I'm not American and two I hate terms like that period. If you had to categorise me however I would be Afro Caribbean but whatever term you would prefer to use, however you want to class it, I am and will always be a black woman. I agree that there are so much stereotypes and most of the time we don't live up to them. People need to wake up and see that it's hard now a days to categorise anything because there are so many misconceptions and everyday each race is breaking boundaries and leaving stereotypes behind.
Gay Marriages
Gay marriage. A tough subject and while I'm okay with Gays and the lifestyle they need those benefits you get from being married. Even if they were to still call it a Civil Union but update the details then it wouldn't be so bad. Like they say if I'm in a civil union and my partner dies but their 33rd cousin twice removed on their mother's side is still alive they have claim to all our fortune and possessions and this poses a problem especially if there are children involved. They deserve to have the same rights as us because like Dare2BeDifferentt says they will always be gay so why not just let them enjoy what life they have.
Interracial Relationships
I'm all for interracial relationships. You can't help who you fall in love with or who you're attracted to and as long as that person treats you right, with respect and loves you and you're happy who gives a damn whether you are both of the same race or background.

I've always struggled with who I am both with myself and with the world. I've finally reached a place in my life where I can start to accept myself and start that journey to find out all that life has to offer and all I'm willing to accept.
I'm a very passionate person. I love my talents and I try hard everyday to perfect my skills both physically and intellectually.
I've always been told that I never could really see my true potential that's why I'm on my way to prove to myself that I am worthy.
I love my family and I love my best friend. She's the sister I never had, the person I run to for healing, the person who breaks my heart, the heart I've broken back. She's the only person who knows me better than me and I love her for all her perfections and all her faults because without her support I wouldn't be on my way now.
With that said as much as she might think she isn't my mother is just as much a force in my life. She's been there for me when no one else was. A father and a mother wrapped into one unique package. She's my rock and I am forever grateful. I apologise for everything that has happened in the past and for those times when you've tried to be my best friend and me being as messed up as I am chose to ignore it. It is because of her undying love, her undying support and her undying sacrifice that I am able to be as successful as I am today.
I'm finally starting to LOVE MY LIFE!!!!!!
