Currently obsessed with Ombré
From my nails (couple of posts below) now to my hair, I’ve been engulfed in the ombré trend. I don’t even know how it happened, I mean like how long has the trend been around?

I also wanted to see how I would look with blonde...

There was just something always so damn alluring about mob movies. I have this inner connection with Italian sub-culture; whether media-fabricated or real, I feel connected to most parts of its representation. The mob style & lifestyle transcends just Italians to other cultures as well. Aside from the tragic & tainted decadence, loyalty and values which I always found pretty hot, there...

“Most creative individuals find out early what their best rhythms are for sleeping, eating, and working, and abide by them even when it is tempting to do otherwise. They wear clothes that are comfortable, they interact only with people they find congenial, they do only things they think are important.

MLK.
There are times when you have to see through the thickness of your forced ignorance and acknowledge what life could have been if certain heroic leaders with unimaginable missions from God failed to change the world. MLK accomplished so much and sometimes I wonder what he would think about our generation today. Would he feel that his work was in vain? Would he log onto WSHH and hang his head in...

I remember my eating disorder.
I also remember when it was a secret…not anymore eh?

I remember when dinner was 5 crackers or a bowl of cheerios (if I felt that I deserved it) and sleep so I wouldn’t have to...
