SCRUB

A scrub is a guy that thinks he's fly
And is also known as a buster
Always talkin' about what he wants
And just sits on his broke ass
So.
No, I don't want your number
No, I don't wanna give you mine and
No, I don't wanna meet you nowhere
No, I don't want none of your time

And no, I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best-friend's ride
Trying to holler at me
I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best-friend's ride
Trying to holler at me

A scrub's checkin' me
But his game's kinda weak
And I know that he cannot approach me
'Cause I'm lookin' like class
And he's lookin' like trash
Can't get with a deadbeat ass
So
No, I don't want your number
No, I don't wanna give you mine and
No, I don't wanna meet you nowhere
No, I don't want none of your time
No, I don't want no scrub

A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best-friend's ride
Trying to holler at me
I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best-friend's ride
Trying to holler at me
If you don't have a car
And you're walkin'
Oh yes son
I'm talking to you
If you live at home with your Mama
Oh yes son
I'm talking to you
If you have a shorty
But you don't show love
Oh yes son
I'm talking to you
Wanna get with me with no money
Oh no
I don't want no..
No scrub..No scrub
(No no)
No scrub..(No, no no no)
No scrub..
No, no.
No, I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best-friend's ride
Trying to holler at me
I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best-friend's ride
Trying to holler at me
See, if you can't spacially expand my horizon
Then that leaves you in the class with scrubs, never rising
I don't find it surprising
and if you don't have the Gs
To please me and bounce me here to the coast of over seas
So, let me give you something to think about
Inundate your mind with intensions to turn you out
Can't forget the focus on the picture in front of me
You as clear as DVD on digital TV screen
Satisfy my apetite with something spectacular
Shake your vernacular
and then I get back to ya
With diamond like precision
Insatiable is what I envision
Can't detect acquisition
from your friend's expedition
Mr. Big Willy, if you really want to know
Ask Chilli, could I be a silly ho?
Not really
T-Boz and all my senoritas
are steppin' on you Filas
but you don't hear me, no
No, I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best-friend's ride
Trying to holler at me
I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best-friend's ride
Trying to holler at me
(repeat to it Fades)







Lee Ann Womack 'Ashes by now'




"Ashes By Now"

This morning is Monday
Where are you now?
Teasing my memory
teaching me how
To lay low when I don't want to
Your love is elusive
This I know now
It's making me crazy
Leaving me out in the open
When I don't want to

Baby, I can't go through this again
I don't need to go down more than I've already been
Just like a wildfire, you're running all over town
As much as you've burned me baby, I should be ashes by now
The moments of pleasure
Never do last
They're gone like a suitcase
Full of your past
Long gone
And in a hurry

Baby, I can't go through this again
I don't need to go down more than I've already been
Just like a wildfire, you're running all over town
As much as you've burned me baby, I should be ashes by now

You're running all over town
As much as you burned me baby, I should be ashes by now

Just like a wildfire, you're running all over town
As much as you've burned me baby, I should be ashes by now
As much as you've burned me baby, I should be ashes by now

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ashes by now)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ashes by now)
As much as you've burned me baby, I should be ashes by now

Ex- Factor














EX FACTOR lyrics

It could all be so simple
But you'd rather make it hard
Loving you is like a battle
And we both end up with scars
Tell me, who I have to be
To get some reciprocity
See no one loves you more than me
And no one ever will
Is this just a silly game?
That forces you to act this way
Forces you to scream my name
Then pretend that you can't stay
Tell me, who I have to be
To get some reciprocity
See no one loves you more than me
And no one ever will


No matter how I think we grow
You always seem to let me know
It ain't workin'
It ain't workin'
It ain't workin'
And when I try to walk away
You'd hurt yourself to make me stay
This is crazy
This is crazy
This is crazy
This is crazy
I keep letting you back in
How can I explain myself?
As painful as this thing has been
I just can't be with no one else
See I know what we've got to do
You let go and I'll let go too
'Cause no one's hurt me more than you
And no one ever will


No matter how I think we grow
You always seem to let me know
It ain't workin'
It ain't workin'
It ain't workin'
It ain't workin'
And when I try to walk away
You'd hurt yourself to make me stay
This is crazy
This is crazy
This is crazy
This is crazy

Care for me, care for me
I know you care for me
There for me, there for me
Said, "You'd be there for me"
Cry for me, cry for me
You said, "You'd die for me"
Give to me, give to me
Why won't you live for me?
Care for me, care for me
You said, "You'd care for me"
There for me, there for me
Said, "You'd be there for me"
Cry for me, cry for me
You said, "You'd die for me"
Give to me, give to me
Why won't you live for me?
Care for me, care for me
You said, "You'd care for me"
There for me, there for me
Said, "You'd be there for me"
Cry for me, cry for me
You said, "You'd die for me"
Give to me, give to me
"Why won't you LIVE for me?"
Care for me, care for me
You said, "You'd care for me"
There for me, there for me
Said, "You'd be there for me"
Give to me, give to me
Why won't you live for me?
Cry for me, cry for me
You said, "You'd die for me"
Care, care, care
(Where were you)
Give
(When I needed you)
Care, care, cry
Give
Where were you
When I needed you
Where were you
You you you
Do do do

"Did you lie awake like I did? I stayed up till the stars didn't recognize me"

Danced to "reconsider' By The XX (john xx remix)  today in my pole dance workout. Once I heard it... it was over. I zoned out and just gave into the beat. It was just what I needed.


LYRICS:
Reconsider:

Remember me, I'm the one that's back from over
Time's gone by and i'm still so far from over

you reappeared like you'd never been gone
I lose composure
You're touching me like you have no desire for closure

reconsider

Did you lie awake like I did? I stayed up till the stars didn't recognize me
so long
I waited so long

Now you see the skies like I did 
my sun becomes your moon
for a familiar love
i'm familiar

Water drop cake


I have to try this desert! It's called mizu shingen mochi also known as water drop cake
Its a rice cake dessert :)
It “has a pleasant natural sweetness” and “goes incredibly smoothly down your throat,” according to a tweet translated by the Asian culture site Rocket News 24.
The dessert is reportedly made with water from the Japanese Alps, and has a texture so delicate that after spending 30 minutes at room temperature, it disintegrates entirely!

Red

I'm enjoying my blond look right now! It took many sessions to get it to this shade and it's just  great for the summer! a wonderful light warm color for this beautiful weather but I was thinking.... where do i go with my hair color come winter? I bore easily. so there needs to be a plan.
I discussed it with my bestie (Rick who happens to be renowned hair colorist and owner of Patrick melville salon in NYC) and we're in agreement. Winter is the perfect time to go..... RED! 
We're gonna change the hair, play with some hair cut styles (keeping the length tho)
There are SO many shades of it to play with it would be impossible for me to get bored! I could update my look every other week!!!! I'm so excited. Red hair is going to look so gorgeous with my skin color!!!































karrueche

I had to say it... Karrueche and Chris Brown look adorable together. I ride with that one 100%.
I hope he marries her- that's the one boo

Haim - Let me go

















"Let Me Go"

Get me out,
Get me in,
I gave you everything I could give.
You try to take,
And you try to make, take all everything you can.

But if you go so easily,
Go on, get out, set me free.
But I will wait, and I will want, wait 'til the day you're back again.

Let me out,
Let me in,
I've giving up, not giving in.
'Cause together we are not one, we are nothing.
We're holding on, and on.

Together now, forever then.
But go ahead, don't you let me in.
But I will wait, and I will want.
Wait 'til the day you're back again.

Let me go.
You know I'm not one for leaving.
Let me go.
You know I'm nothing without your love, no.
I know I'm nothing without your love, no.
So let me go.
(Let me go)
You know I'm not one for leaving.
Let me go.
You know I'm nothing without your love, no.
I know I'm nothing without your love.
So please, God, let me go.

Let me out,
Let me in.
I gave you everything I could give.
You try to take, and you try to make,
You can take all everything you can take.
If you go so easily,
Go ahead, won't you set me free?
I will wait, I will want, wait 'til the day you're back again.

Let it out,
Let it in.
I'm giving up, not giving in,
'Cause together we are not one, we are nothing, holdin' on and on.
Together now, forever then.
Go ahead, don't you put me in.
I will wait, I will want, wait 'til the day you're back again.

Let me go.
You know I'm not one for leaving.
Let me go.
You know that I'm nothing without your love, no.
You know I'm nothing without your love, no.
'Cause you know that I'm not one for leaving,
No, I'm not one for leaving,

But I'll go on believing, hey, I'll go on believing.
And I'm not one for leaving, no, I'm not for leaving,
No, I'm not one for leaving, no, I'm not one for leaving.
So let me go.

You know I'm not one for leaving.
Let me go.
(Let me go)
You know I'm not one for leaving.
Let me go.
(Let me go)
You know I'm not one for leaving.
Let me go.
(Let me go)
Let me go.
(Let me go)
Let me go.

Ice cream!

Omg you guys, it was SO delicious!!!
I made Vegan Banana/Vanilla  Ice Cream from scratch! I used 1 banana, fresh vanilla bean and I'm just overjoyed it was a success since Ice cream is something I don't want to give up.
I made caramel sauce from scratch as well and enjoyed the delicious healthy dessert while binge watching 'Orange is the new black'.
uggh i'm already at episode 8. When is season 3 coming again? need more ORANGE!


orange vegan ice cream....hmmm.....sounds like it could be really good. On it!


Once were warriors

warning, spoilers in this post.

This movie hurt my soul. I first saw it when I was very little...maybe 9 years old. That was probably a mistake since I'm quite sure I got overwhelmed and ultimately so confused by the intensity of it - I didn't know how to emotionally process what I was watching. grown ups tried to hide these kinds of movies from me but I always found a way. I've always been too curious for my own good. human behavior in all it's forms fascinated me! I loved mysteries in particular and was always entertained by a good old 'whodunnit' movie! Alfred Hitchcock movies were my favorites! 'Dinner with Andre'  'Frankie and Johnnie' ugggh boy did I want me some Al Pacino then! that dude was sexy in that movie. still is! lol

'L'ultimo Baccio' is a beautiful Italian movie I highly recommend. 'Sleepers' kept me from sleeping for days. that movie was gut wrenching and painful to watch. I hate seeing people suffer and this movie had plenty of suffering in it. children nonetheless!

Back to  ONCE WERE WARRIORS ..I've seen it a few times since but just thinking of the movie immediately reminds me of that scene where Jake beats his wife then rapes her.
as a kid I remember watching that scene mortified that a man would unleash such rage at a woman...at his wife. while their poor children listened he mercilessly beat their mother into oblivion.
We're talking punches, banging her against the walls, breaking a mirror with her face, kicks to her belly when she fell to the floor...he then rips of her clothes as her throws her on the bed. we get a glimpse of her bloodied face before he rips of his own shirt yelling 'you do AS YOU'RE TOLD' before proceeding to rape her. the dude went berserk on her in that scene and all that...because she refused to cook for his friend. The same friend that would later rape their 13 year old daughter who would kill herself  as a result of the rape. I felt so....sad. so helpless as a kid. This man terrorized his family and somehow the love between them was so strong...you get kinda effed up watching it. The impact war and violence has had on us as people manifests itself in so many ways. To have such violent tendencies towards your own family is the most unnatural thing in the world as it is our instinct to protect our blood. our family.

I'm ready to watch it again. to see what else I can learn from it.




The Mothman prophecies


We love dark movies and this particular one came back to me when I was in the sub.
I knew of 'The Mothman' before seeing the movie....The winged headless creature with two red eyes in the chest area that scared the life out of people in the mid 60's in point pleasant, west Virginia. I'm so into this stuff you'd be shocked how much I know on the topic. All I did at one point in my teens was come home and finish 2-3 books a day on things like this.

The movie differs a great deal from the book by John A.Keel although it's based...well inspired by it.
I did a lot of research Indrid Cold in particular after seeing the movie. I got attached to the name...I found it so intriguing and enchanting......Indrid Cold. what a  name.
Anyway, watching it again tomorrow. can't wait

News

This is called  the 'Standing bow' pose. I need to work on locking that leg! I feel SO close some days then other days...not so much. as Bikram says 'Yoga never fails to reward honest effort' so it's about going back and trying harder! in other news, I'm SO excited about finally signing up for Seido Karate!!! I got  a red belt in Taekwondo in my teens (haven't practiced in YEARS though) and I've always wanted to give Karate a try. now just felt right to take that step...I'm ready for that discipline in my life.  I met a 65 year old woman today in Bikram Yoga class that had a body most 20 year olds would KILL for. she's getting a hip replacement later this year due to some injury and her docs expect her to make a full recovery. She plans on going right back to lifting weight, doing yoga and staying every bit as active as before. I left so inspired and high on life. What a woman! Love your body, love yourself! She did. and it's making all the difference now that her body is going through this :) I'm going to make myself SO strong!
