My mistakes and mishaps does not have the power to define me as a person. I am life, I am fashion, I am my God given name. Continuing to grow as time goes by, daughter, sister, best friend, I am my God given name.

crying for good reason.



Disclaimer: I know i have been away for a while, so we have some catching up to do.

so this week was a great week for me; spring semester has started and the inauguration of our 44th president Barack Obama. Its so indescribale to actually be apart of history and experiencing it; that must be how my grandmother felt about MLK Jr. and the great pioneers that paved the way for us to be able to interact with others as we do. Seeing him take oath of office was left me speechless; tears streaming down my face uncontrollably. Seeing someone tht looks likes me and being of two completely different ethnic backgrounds in one individual jst as myself leaves me speechless and in complete awe. The inaguration ball; omg!! Michelle's dress was adorable; congrats to Jason Wu, i knw that he will have more clientele after that. When Beyonce sang At Last, the tears came again, like at last change has come. One thing that i want to make clear is tht we should not think tht Obama is superman and that he can change the entire world in 4 or even 8 years. It also takes the help of the American people, choosing whether to buy that new Gucci purse instead of paying our mortgage. Its all about decisions and choices. Seeing our new president just inspires me to want to work harder at whatever i do, to be smarter, to want to do more than i am doing now, to dream BIGGER! He is an inspiration to me as well as others close to me.
