I value friendship...

(best-reviewer.com)

Unlike family, one can choose one’s friends. Throughout my life I formed many friendships. To me friendship is about quality and not quantity. I chose to have true friends opposed to having many fake friends. Because I value the essence of friendship, I love and treat my friends like family.

A skill set called leadership...

(blog.leadingresources.com)

No one was born a leader. Skills need to be cultivated and need to be fully developed to be successful and one needs to work hard to be a good leader. www.ginabudi.com stated that there is no scientific dat that shows people are 'born leaders". I too believe that it is a skill that is acquired through endurance.

Tupac and Biggy Smalls feud...

(mexican-taint.com)

Rap music grew popularity in the 1990's. Growing up in the 90's I was fimilar with Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls' music. Although they died, I never really understood their feud. And I always wondered, what happened. www.trutv.com explained the feud:  The two rappers slandered one another with increasing viciousness and frequency. An East coast - West coast feud developed pitting Tupac's record label against Biggie's record label. The feud eventually escalated from a battle of word to a bloody war. In seperate incidents both men were shot multiple times while sitting in front passenger seats of their vehicles.

Before writing this blog post,  I had no idea rock journalism even existed. I then researched the topic. I myself, am not a fan of rock music, nor would I find it interesting write about something that doesn’t interest me. The statement itself is self-explanatory. Journalist are writers. Rock journalists can’t write nor can they interview rock musicians because all they do is make noise.

Natural hair...

The other evening on 3^rd degree Debra Patta covered the topic of natural hair versus weaves. I found the topic very interesting. I personally don’t have a problem with people choosing to wear weaves, but I would rather encourage individuals to embrace their natural hair. I love and embrace my natural brown curly hair. I refuse to become influenced about what is socially acceptable when it comes to hair.
