You mean I missed my major by a couple of seconds



When I decided to become an English major my first reason was to go to law school. After several failed attempts at the obvious I realized I was not lawyer material. I still decided to pursue a career in English with a spealization in literature, because I wanted to make my markon the world and become a teacher. I naive-ly though English_Lit would be an easy majo because all I had to do was read a few books interpret an anthology of literature and write a few papers...boy was I wrong. Since fall of 2008 when I really buckled down and got serious about school I pushed myself to achieve what no one else in my family ever did...Graduate from college. Whenever I tell someone what my major is its always followed up with..."so what are you going to teach"! Like dag is that all you can do as an English major when in all actuality that was exactly what I was going to do. School has been a joyful struggle for me because I have the pressure from my family to finish yet I have the mentality of a professional slacker.Geesh school just got real and mediocricy won't cut it this year...Help Me!

Quirky doesn't mean Weird...Right?

Hello follow Bloggers and Blog reading enthusiasts alike. The intial reason for this blog was a requirement for a general education class in writing, that I was taking at the time. I only fulfilled my two post a week reqirement of post and abandoned my .02 cents shortly there after. I was a transitional point of my life with having my son and finding balance in my newly aquired role...very hard to do but I trekked on. Blog writing can not be forced. You first have to have a passion for writing and creativity, next you have to have something to write about. Finally you have to time, patience, and dedication. There are lots of topics I could talk about but to keep this blog from going all over the place I decided to narrow it down to a few of my passions...which are Natural Hair, Natural Hair products, and makeup tutorials I haven't decidedwhether or not I want to do joint blogs focusing on my home lfe, spirit filled walk with God and parenting for Africans Americans in today's society. This should be fun I'm excited to venture out and try new things to give you a wide spectrum of topics...Keep faith and Happy blogging
