Happy 100

I just realized something...I am finally at 100 posts....

And I would just like to Thank my man MikeSee for starting this whole Blogging addiction that has lasted for the last past four months...withtout it I don't know what I would have done... *tear*
I would also like to think JAC, Danger, Teej, AWOTM, Negropino, Kep, GMo, BrillD, Jes, RM, and all those listed on the side...for constantly being or commenting on my page...
And last but not least I want to think Noname for being the FIRST person to ever comment...that I didn't personally know...she was my First Blogger... *tear*


Now most people when they hit this mildstone do some type of reflective post...but I am not going to do that...what I think I will do is list 100 things about myself...can I think of 100 things to say about myself and/or random thoughts about myself, my life...whatever...well we shall see...this list will probably make no sense...

1. I am 26 years old
2. The youngest of 5 kids
3. The only girl
4. I have four nephews
5. I have five nieces
6. I have two god-sons
7. I live alone
8. I drive a 2004 Explorer Sport Trac
9. I currently have braids
10. I am thinking about going natural
11. I am light skinned
12. I am a Leo
13. I am a very sensitive person
14. I have been in love before
15. It ended because he cheated on me
16. I will always love him
17. I actually saw him this weekend at his grandmothers funeral...now that was a wonderful woman...we were really close, in fact she was the first person to tell me my ex had a new girlfriend and made it a point to tell me that she didn't want a new girlfriend...I smiled and told her it was alright we both had moved on...*smiling at the thought of her*
18. He told me I was "right", right about what you are probably thinking...that I was the best thing for him...oh well...nice to hear though...
19. I don't think I want to date right now, I am happy with no drama
20. I realized this after an unpleasant phone call I received this weekend from my ex's girlfriend asking me how I got his number after I called him to see how he was doing after the funeral...I don't do drama...so I told little youngin NOT to call my number again because whatever issues they have I have nothing to do with
21. It feels good to forgive, forget and be ready to love again
22. But didn't I just say I don't want to date anymore...right now at least...I did...so Imma chill
23. I am the Director of the Kiamsha Youth Steering Committee
24. I tutor and mentor kids from DC too
25. I have two tutoring students...
26. I think I want to be a teacher...I keep going back to wanting to be a teacher...
27. Why not I love kids, they just make me happy, and I don't think there are enough people out here that really care about kids...
28. I thought that I was going to be a lawyer when I was little
29. Actually this lady told me when I was little girl that I would either be a lawyer or a pastor...
30. I am still trying to figure out if she was right
31. My Dad told me to go to back to school for law...
32. I told him I would if he was going to pay my bills and I could still live on my own and not move back home
33. He told me no, I told him that's what I thought...LOL
34. When I first left home in March of 2004 I moved in with a roommate
35. We had a roommate style apartment and it was real cool...
36. She is like a big sister to me, so it was a good adjustment
37. But I really like living alone...
38. I have a problem with wanting to buy shoes...I love shoes
39. Oh, and bags...why do I have so many bags...
40. My dress game has fallen off here lately though
41. That's because I am broke
42. You ever notice that you didn't know you could live without something until you have no choice...and then you realize that you didn't miss it at all
43. I haven't cooked all week...that's terrible...
44. My favorite thing to cook for myself right now is spaghetti...its pretty good, I use ground turkey meat and whole wheat noodles...

52. Did I say I love kids?
53. I want to teach African-American history or just history...I love history...its cool and interesting to me
54. I think that depending on flowers, cards, and candy to show love are over rated...its nice and all that, but like Meth said "we don't need special occasions to show our love"
55. I want someone to show me in the way they act, the way that they hold my hand, look in my eyes, touch my hair....
56. But that will come in time...I still believe in love, but it will just come in time
57. Speaking of Love, God is love to me...He is love to everyone
58. You know I have gone to church all my life and am just now really developing a personal relationship with God, Jehovah God...
59. That relationship is the most important in my life...
60. I have weekly Bible study with Mama C
61. Its really the first time in my life that I am really learning the Bible...and understanding who God and Jesus are, kinda makes me sad that I am just NOW getting to know them, but glad that I take the time to do so...knowing the Bible and having TRUE Bible knowledge is extremely important
62. I am so into music...music moves me...I need it in my life..."and I wanna thank you..."
63. Every time new music comes out I feel like I just HAVE to have it...
64. The last two CDs I bought were Robin Thicke and John Legend...
65. I don't like Janet's 20 Y.O but Best Buy doesn't take back CDs
66. We have to bring a song to the Kiamsha Female Slumber party tomorrow night...the song that best describes us...guess what my song will be?

74. I almost passed out at work today because of the pain...man it was crazy...
75. I need to get my house phone working...paying Vonage every month without having the phone hooked up is dumb!

84. Roll call: Ni Ni, Li, S-Boo, KW, JAC, Jes, Rik, Ki....

87. I want to go to Africa, South Africa to be exact
88. I think Imma get a trip together that we can go on in about two years...(its going to take that long to pay that joker off)
89. I know now you can't plan your life, you can set goals, but you can't plan it...God has that under HIS control
90. I finally think I am a pretty girl...
91. I had real self esteem issues for a long time, always the thickest of my friends, short hair, tomboy and it didn't hurt that my brother constantly called me ugly and told me I was adopted
92. YES that really affected me...
93.Speaking of which why do I feel like the oldest sibling to the youngest brother...geesh that boy is going to drive me crazy...
94. You would think his kids was MY kids...
95. Dag I don't have any kids...

97. My family is loud and crazy, we will sit around and talk trash on each other all night long...
98. Man I love my parents...they are my rocks in my life...I couldn't or wouldn't be who I am with them...They are the GREATEST parents in the world...
99. My parents have been together for 36 years, I hope and pray I make it that long with whomever GOD has in mind for me to marry
100. I still need to make a post about my Daddy...that man is the craziest, coolest, meanest, complex person I know other than me...I guess that's where I get it from
101. This post is actually 101...I was at 100 with "Trick or Treat" but I didn't even realize it...

Well if you got here, you got a look into my mind and how I think...Peace or Peesh as my main man miles would say

i like this little exercise...it's better than those surveys that all have the same questions. it seems like you have a lot of ideas about things you want to do and possibly questioning about where you want to be in life. there's a book you should check out called Chazown by Craig Groeschel. it's written from a Christian perspective and helps us to identify our calling according to God. even if you're already doing what you love, this book is great for understanding your gifts and also where you lack. check it out. blessings~

I think you'd make a great pastor or teacher. Probably a decent lawyer too, but I think you'd be better at the first two. It's great how much you care about kids. I think it's true. There aren't enough people that care that much. They need teachers as passionate and enduring as you are. I think it's interesting that in what seems like a free association, one of the first things on your list of about yourself is how you work with Kiamsha and kids. Self definition and priorities kind of go hand in hand don't they?

"I like my job, but I don't think this is my purpose...I am good at research...but I want my life to have an impact on my community" I've been thinking a lot about that idea lately. With all the stuff I can do in music it's hard to stay focused and remember how much ability I have to help so many people. I think the same can be said for you. :-)

You gotta give me the break down for those slumber parties so I can think of stuff to do for the guys. I'm glad you see the pretty everyone else gets to see in you. Nice to look at ain't she! :-D

I'm going to do a blog like this. I don't know if I'll get through the whole list twice, but I'll take some ideas from what I remember.

Peace,
Kep.

@dane-I thought it would be a lot harder than it was...by the time I got to 101, I had more to say...like Kep said it turned into "free association" type piece...I look forward to your 100th entry...

@JAC-Thanks...no need for thanks, it is what it is...you know...I am growing huh? I think we all are in our own special ways...that's what life is supposed to really be about...living, learning, and growing....
People let me tell you that the time in your life when you find who you are..And then in your mind you will find you're upright, shining star..When you feel deep inside..All the love you're looking for Don't it make you feel okay..That's the golden time of day...
That's me baby!
