I said I wasn’t going to write in here until I came back. But so what I am.

It’s been a REALLY interesting past few days. There have been ups and downs really happy moments and really sad mooments all wrapped up in one.

Seems like whenever I am about to travel something has to happen within the structure of my family. This time one of my cousins got killed in Iraq. It’s really a sad and unfortunate thing. She was the only person in her convoy that died and unfortunately two months ago to the date her youngest sister died of brain cancer. I feel really bad because the one that died in Iraq was a twin (who was also fighting in the middle east). It’s soo hard to imagine that you have been connected with someone since day one and then in a moment it’s over. I know what it’s like to lose siblings but this has to be of a different magnitude.

The other “sad” (but not really sad because I HAD to find the humor in it) moment of the weekend was a “hell date” but that was so utterly annoying that I don’t even want to discuss it. But it did involve foolishness and me fearing for my life to the point where I was about to cry because of his driving skills. Good part about it is that I have the BEST ignoring skills of life so thats what I did the majority of the date. This date REALLY made me realize how I miss going out with certain people because what I experienced was HORRIBLE lol. I will have to say the funniest part of the evening was him saying I was hating on his car… sir I drive a 07 Passat and you drive a Chevrolet that looks like it was hot in 1913. The great thing about the entire situation is that I am going to South Africa. Why is that so great you say well I can leave and come back and just never let him know lol. Yes it’s mean and unfortuante I know but me going on that date was unfortunate for me as well.

Okay this time I really am out of here. I won’t be writing until I return in September from good old South Africa. before you say it I’ve heard it from everyone I know already… Be safe and don’t come back with a husband lol

here is the blg I am going to TRY and update while there

Me

I haven’t blogged on here in a REALLY long time. Just been busy with life and work and singing and life lol. So I kind of put this thing on the side burner. I think I promised my PIC that I would write an entry about a month or so ago. So um yeah I’m sorry. I’ve been bad lol. I can’t even promise anymore entries really soon because I am gearing up to go to south africa next week! I’m getting excited, nervous, anxious etc. The trip is with other black and latino alum from Syracuse and with over 130 people going it’s bound to be an interesting adventure. I will be gone from next week until the beginning of September. I have started a blog specifically for that trip just because I dont want everyone I know over here lol.

the address is browngirltraveling DOT wordpress DOT com (I changed it)

I promise in the fall I’ll get back to writing for real. Because with all the things going on in my life I’m sure I’ll have something to write about
