Sweeping Curlies

Carolyn:So today is clean up Friday, and it's my job to clean our bedroom. I start sweeping and when I was done, this was in the pile.

This has become an every Friday thing, constantly sweeping curlies. Luckily, our hair is braided( have to put up pics later) so next Friday we won't be seeing THIS. The bathroom isn't even this bad, but we'll see how bad it gets two Fridays from now.

GE X5 Pictures

This is my video of pictures I've taken using my GE X5. It's sort of like a review of the camera. Enjoy.

Carolyn's 4 Month Natural Hair Anniversary

Well, yesterday made my 4th month being natural, and I was happy it was here. So I decided to make this video from my transitioning days to now.

BTW, I started my own photo blog at cpagephotography.wordpress.com, so if you want you can go check that out.

Thought for Today

Step out your boundary and try something new; it's OK to switch things up every once in a while. If you are used to being to yourself, try going to a friend's party, seminar of your interest( I'll be going to my first seminar on digital photography today!), or any other social event to get you out there. If you're bored, try a new sport or get that guitar that you've been thinking about and wanted to play, or try the new restaurant down the street that everyone's talking about. In all, just be open to new possibilities and not do the same routine you've been doing for 5 years now. You'll never know, you might be happy you tried it.

Summer Vacation So Far

So today is the first day of July and I can't really say I'm having a good vacation. It's not bad but it's not great either. The first month of my vacation was spent staying home and selling yearbook ads which are almost impossible to sell. So the ads have definitely ruined my mood but I prayed about it and got my first sale and some possible sales; I have to call back with them to make sure, but I'm trying and getting somewhere. So I'm praying July goes MUCH better than June and that I sell these ads. July the 4th is coming up and on that day not only will I celebrate Independence Day, but I will also celebrate National Afro Day, and I will be definitely be rocking my fro. So that day I'm looking forward to, but after that it's back to work with ad sales. It's like I'm doing school work during summer, but I have to do it or else I won't be on the yearbook staff which is adding more stress to me. Not a good thing, because I don't handle stress well nowadays, but I'm trying to get better.

I do have one trip I'm really looking forward to which is going to Florida, but after it's time to get ready for school. I have to admit that this summer vacation is going by fast, which leaves me wondering will my junior year go by quick. At least my hair is one of my least concern. Wait I take that back, because I might wear a twist out. But until school starts, July will mostly be work with a week off for a trip. Wonder how my summer vacation for senior year will be?
