Walking in a Winter Dread,

There was absolutely no point of it snowing today. The aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, had temperatures dropping. But since i stayed in today rather than getting soaked with snow like i did yesterday. 

Out of my boredom, i found some things to do. 

FACTS ABOUT ME (36 Count)

1 -I am 4'11 1/2 

2 -I am the youngest of my family. But since my family does foster care to others, i get different chances to be an older sister. 

3 -I have two sisters (Age 16 and 22) who are around the same size as i am, (height, clothing, shoes ,etc.)

4 -I am Haitian. No mix. 

5 -I love sweaty hands. My hands barely generate sweat so i love people with sweaty hands.

6 -When i eat a meal by myself, i watch my favorite old 90's cartoons. Not even on the tv, i dead search it up. No shame

7 - I hate when black people act extremely ghetto for no reason. And just do things for no reason just because they are black. Before we come out, we are judged because we're black. WE are the ones to either act loud and ghetto like our stereotypes OR to make something of ourselves. 

8 -I have asthma

9 -I play piano, i want to learn guitar

10 -I hate ignorant people. I have no problem standing up for what's right. 

11 -I listen to a wide genre of music. From dubstep to rap to twerkin music to R&B

12 - I am in love with FASHION. 

13 - I am an understanding person. I'm not the type to judge you until you do something wrong to ME. But i usually hold grudges for long. I forgive but i don't forget. I will be there to listen and give advice.

14 -I love FOOD. I am ALWAYS hungry and ALWAYS eating. 

15 -I was severely bullied in 7th grade because I was Haitian and didn't know how to hold my own ground. It did A LOT to how i view people. Since then i don't let people take advantage of me.

16 -I am NOT a fake person. I keep it 100 

17 -I absolutely love cleaning. I clean out my emotions. When i'm happy, sad, mad, etc - I just clean. I just love organization. Though i live with a slob. (Sub) But. I WILL bust up in yo house and start cleaning. 

18- I hate when people call me bony, twigish, stick - Basically an exaggeration of skinny. I have seen people that are far worse than my family and I. There was a point where i was anorexic and i improved greatly. So to be compared to my past? Dub. 

19- I smile more than the average number of times people smile a day. 

20- I am a Christian / 7th day Adventist. I go to church every Saturday. And i have no problem with it . I love it.

28- I love when people are different. They don't blend in with the crowd. They stand out . With their own swag. (Listening to 2 Chainz at the moment "I'M DIFFERENT !")

Happy Birthday Karmin

Today, after my Sunday piano lessons, We celebrated my foster sister's birthday. She turned 6 today. My mother and I bought a small cake and cupcakes. Along with a present and balloons. All in all it was a success. I'm glad that she could feel at home with this birthday party. 

Have a Happy Sunday!

Uniformed

Oh goodness, can you believe its November already? I sure cant. Yesterday I walked around and took in the fresh air. I can never expect the weather here in New York. After the hurricane its been more chilly than usual. Today, was a chilly type of day.

Yesterday, i decided to work on a dress and make it new again. It was an old Victorian style dress that my mom used to force me to wear. I simply cut off the sleeves and tailored the bottom of the dress to make it much shorter. It turned out to be a great success!

As i prowled around Brooklyn, I continued to see the after math of Hurricane Sandy. Hope you all are having a great week and Happy Saturday! I am safe and sound from the storm and I hope and pray that  families are recovering and forming solutions - the ones who got hit hard by Sandy. New York is still a mess and I can't wait til all of us get completely past the damage from the storm. Remember you can always donate to those affected through the Red Cross, churches, and some colleges such as Brooklyn College.
