So a short time ago Periscope was”bae”. It may still be but I realized I wasn’t ready. With the passage of time and busy schedules I didn’t make it happen. I am a persistent pearl though, projects develop like sugah plum fairies in my head… always. Admittedly, in that short while that Periscope was popping…

Information is Moving to Fast
I feel like everything just needs to slow down. Then there is a voice in my head taunting me saying “What, you can’t keep up?” It is frustrating. But there are times when I just want to get off the ride, to just slow down and chill out. Information travels so quickly now. That is why…
MSG got me f***** up
I learn that MSG kills brain cells. I knew it was bad for you… but that is all that was said, I never knew the exact reason why. Not that I didn’t do my best to stay away from it before that knowledge. One thing that I also know is that the majority of students…
I Would Call Myself a Womanist before I would Ever call Myself a Feminist
The word feminism has been strewn about the media like a beach ball at an outdoor concert. I have never really taken the side of feminism because I suppose I am for what is fair and just regardless of labeling it. And while I believe that a woman has the right to do whatever her…
What Do Fetty Wap, My Mother, and I have in Common?
Besides the fact that we are all from New Jersey. The commonalities between my mama, Fetty Wap and myself are probably few. But we do share one thing for sure… a serious generational divide. Being a member of Generation X and of a particular age, I have always felt like a bridge between Depression Era…
My New Year Begins… NOW!
My holidays were good… How about yours? This time of year is filled with so much, I just needed to veg out. I was pretty much a zombie going through the holiday motions trying to figure out how to pep myself up and be in good spirits. I just felt like another year was ending…
Someone Should…
Those words have come out of my mouth many times over. Someone should create a shop that does this… Someone should start a website that does that… I have so many ideas I figure I can’t do them all. You ever feel like that? That you need a partner to execute plans or to lend…
The Cover Up
We learn certain behaviors from our families that we may not recognize as detrimental because it is so common place. To be honest this post will probably include some of that good ole cover magic that I am discussing here. Why do we do it? Are the secrets learned? Do we just do it to…
Watch Sondai on #Periscope
I have slowly… NO… I take that back, quickly become addicted to the world of #Periscope. One of my new scoper gurus said “It is the best place for free professional development and entertainment.” Thanks Chalene Johnson. YES! Depending on who you follow you can “get your life” on Periscope. From messages for the spirit,…
Night Club Art Exhibitions Don’t Pay Artists
The combination is actually illogical. Night clubs are multi-purposed venues but, art seller is not one of them. While I appreciate the out of the box sentiment that promoters and night club owners have, this forcing of culture is not progressing artist’s careers. In fact, it may very well be pigeon-holing or exploiting the artist by using…
