Day 4

What shows, movies, plays, books, or events influenced your life in the past year?

Since purchasing an ipad, I go through books like water. So decided to put myself on a budget. 1 book purchase a month. I have been downloading free books like crazy. The best free books that I have downloaded are "the Mating","The Keeping", and "The finding" by Nicky Charles. I love these books so much that I am reading them all over again. I usually read action books, but this romance novel that captured my heart.


I haven't really done any much in past year besides attend various carnivals.

Day 3

What healthy activities / choices did you do in 2011? What are some you want to do in 2012?


I never practiced good eating habits which is the reason why I have a poor metabolism. When I do decide to eat, the options are always healthy and nutritious. The problem is that I hardly eat because I never have an appetite. I get so engrossed in what I am doing that I don't think about food or even using the rest room LOL. Whenever I start a project that I am passionate about, I tend to forget about everything else. For 2012 I want to continue eating healthy, but more frequently. I want to start exercising and build my metabolism and endurance up.

Day 2

I indeed had a few good experiences for 2011.

* Trinidad Carnival was bess especially Tobago. ( My clients rock lol)

* My Daughter started elementary school

* I loved my labor day and NY kiddies and Miami Carnival Designs / section.

* I did design work for various Carnival bands in NY and already have
things in place for 2012.

* My nephew Aden was born.

* I'm proud to say that my friends stuck by me through the roughest time
in my life (I Love Ya'll)


* Even in your darkest hour, there will always be things that will make you happy.










Most of my happiest experiences for 2011 revolved around carnival.

Day 1

Argghhhhhhh This is really hard for me, but I am determined to follow through. So here I go, I will label 2011 as "DISASTER". It was a horrific year for me, one that I truly want to forget. 2012 is definitely titled as "ADVANCEMENT". I am determined to grow and advance as a POWERFUL BLACK WOMAN. I have set goals that I know for a fact that I will accomplish way before 2012 is over. I am focused and determined on being a better person.

12 days of refelction

I have never opened up and discuss my personal life on this blog. But I decided to change that and open up to my readers. This year have been really rough on me spiritually and mentally, So I am going to use my blog as a platform to rebuild myself to the person that I use to be. I know that many people are probably going through the same situations that I am (maybe worse), but sometimes listening to other peoples situation gives you encouragement to face your own problems.

With that being said I decided to join a friend of mines Ashanti and do The 12 days of Reflection Challenge.





Its time that I put some closure to this year and move on to something positive.
