Geralt

If there's one recurring lesson in my life, it's to take the time to do the work. My personality, my attitude, heck, my sign is to jump from project to project. I'm a Sagittarius by the way. I find it difficult to see things through. The projects I start are great. They just need a little time and care.  Time is one thing I feel like I don't have. My mission is to live life to the fullest and sometimes things get done half-heartedly.

It's difficult for me to hash out the details and nothing makes me feel more trapped then planning. I want to go, go, go when it's really time to plan. From 2014-2017 Saturn has been in Sagittarius and it has been hell. I don't know how many of my plans just didn't work out or totally self-destructed. I read my horoscope and it says, 'life may feel like you're driving with the handbrake on.' It SURE does.

There's nothing I hate more than planning. Over these last few years I have become so paranoid I'm afraid to do anything because I don't know if it'll work. But the lesson for me in my life is to take time and do the work. See it through to the end. Practice until you can't get it wrong. This year and next year I'll see it through to the end.

Rest Poem

Response | What It Means To Be A Black Female Introvert

I recently read an article by Valarie Stephens, self-proclaimed introvert. In her article, she described herself as an introvert that happened to be black, and that is how I would describe myself. I am an introvert that is black. Often times I feel like being a black female overshadows my actual personality. It's shallow that people cannot look past my skin, and get to know ME.

 Black women have the worst stereotypes out of any race. We are over-sexualized in music videos or dismissed as loud mouth baby mama. There is no in between. It saddens me that people find me strange or unique for acting the way I do. I know for a fact there are many black and minority women out there like me. We like coffee, Kawaii things, pop music and being alone.

I hope this doesn't get dusted under the rug. If it does I want to say, I here weird and never going to change.

My Unexpected Dream

I woke up from a good 8-hours of sleep and I recalled the strangest detail from my dream. I am a person that believes dreams can be interpreted and hold meaning, so this dream was strange. I hate it when you can't remember the entire dream. It would help put it into context but...what can you do.

In the dream, I was looking down and saw a green snake. It wasn't a huge snake. It was a small lime green color and was moving in a circle. I watched the snake move round and round until a bigger green snake came behind it and devoured it! I was shocked but I wasn't scared. I woke up not knowing what this meant. 

While on my way to work I Googled "Dream meaning snake, eating another snake." I found a couple threads here and there but nothing really made sense. A Reddit thread I found was kind of interesting;

"Actually, in my experience, the ouroboros is a good sign. It's a symbol of personal transformation. What it means is the old you is used to create a new you."--RadOwl

Ouroboros is from Egyptian Mythology. He represents an infinite cycle of recreation and destruction.
I didn't completely trust his explanation.  

My culture has taught me that snakes are bad. Snakes should be avoided at all costs no matter how harmless they look. As a child, I grew up next to the woods and my parents were cautious when we played outside.

So I searched again, with my FAVORITE source Dreammoods. Dreammoods said;

To dream that a snake is eating another snake represents your drive and determination to succeed at whatever cost.

To me, this is the same thing RadOwl said. There is something changing in my life. I am growing and changing as well.

BILLIE EILISH

Billie Ellish, 15-year-old Los Angles native released a killer album this year.The albums name is Don't Smile at Me. The title perfectly sums up her playful mischievous attitude.My favorite songs on the album are Bellyache and watch.


RUTH B.

Next is Ruth B. A former Viner, she posted short videos of her singing. I fell in love with Ruth's song of superficial love. The song's name is actually Superficial Love.

Baby if you want me, then you better need me

HALSEY

The final talented lady is Halsey. Halsey has a bad girl new york swag. I loved her release of Bad At Love. She goes through her relationships and why they didn't work out. It's not her fault she's bad at love and she's not going to pretend you're the one.
