My camera be misbehavin

and im pissed because it was during toni cade when it decided to break.

So i didnt get those good papparatzi shots

some i was able to salvage.

(aren't we just a colorful bunch?)

Toni Cade

is over
big sigh of relief.
Tired, wore-out, jaded.

New faces, old faces. Family reunion style complete with the kids.

So what does Spelman mean to me? What does activism mean to me? Havnt quite figured it out yet. Another stop on the road?
Yawn...I'm so sleepy.

:)

Retracting my statement

So after a heart to heart with Angelita-who told me i needed to go ahead and calm down about waering professional attire, i have reached a happy medium. I mean- can you really be taken seriously in a pair of jeans? ( i think so but hey, what does society think). I still need to invsest in a pesonal shopper. THe kind that will shop for me while i stay home and watch bad reality tv.

or maybe someone can submit me to what not to wear- i would not be offended- all them free clothes.

I really dont have much to say today

Since were ever growing.here are some things i did this week for the first time.

Went to Sonics (Apparently they are all the rage in Ark., I never been to one)
Watched a tape of the Big Mama convocation that i keep hearing about (made me smile)
Drove to a part of Atlanta I have never been, in the pouring rain
Discoved a new route through Atlanta
Ate Pizza at Leroys on Edgewood
Went to the nerdiest AUC party...it was so great
Drank grey goose and coke, (yeah i dont know what i was thinking either)
bought my lunch to work
Got called out on wearing jeans to work
Ran into India at a healthfood store during one of my toasted seaweed binges




not very exciting but thats really whats going on with my life.

Other than that- the weather is beautiful, the cicadas(sp?) are busy humming again and im finally beginning to get some sleep! I filed my tax return and now im getting a little pocket change, Moya made it back safely from Cali and they have new MARTA machines that wont spit out my dollar!

Small pleasures

Rent-A-Negro

The animated Ms. Ayo
O' girl came to school

she was cool. I wasnt crazy about the book( i found it a bit repetitive, i think her website was good on its own) but I did enjoy listening to her talk about interactive art.

This concludes my blog entry for today
