....NEW ISH!!!! BY T-PAIN Feat. T.I. n AkON and JoHn LeGENd Is BAKKK yay!.... You"ll LikE IT!

...shut and be pretty....

Ive been inspired. theres a website <http://www.ringsurf.com/ring/idabwells/> full of links to blogs of minority women who speak REAL shit. after reading the blog by "angry black women" i realized im on a role with my writing lately and became inspired. Im not sure why ive been eating, drinking, and sleeping my words lately but hell since im on a roll why stop now. I woke up today and looked in the mirror fresh out the shower i realized ...DAMN THIS CHICK I STARE AT EVERYDAY DOESNT LOOK HALF BAD. She is gorgeous inside and out, pretty but humble, outspoken but polite, dimples for days, silly in her ways, she smiles even thou there's so much she could be upset about, her good days out way her bad, sure her arms, legs, and features are long but thats what makes her the beautiful giraffe in a zoo full of normal ass mammals.

after taking myself all in i realized that i may pick part my flaws but the world see's me as picture perfect. But is it fair to want me to just be the pretty single black female? I become frustrated at the number of men who i meet that love for me to be pretty but hate for me to be smart. I have been forced to tell myself to face it: tHe WorLd WanTs YoU to Be pREttY and DumB.

I guess i am tired of being everything that sumone else ( including the world and men) want me to be. Can i wear wat i want, how i want, move as i feel, and speak how i want without being constantly altered?I have met sum men who say they are attracted to intelligence but yet never have an intelligent conversation with me. Or they may say they love a pretty girl with brains but then become salty when my GPA is higher than there's. Or they may rave about how they will date random dumb girls but WIFEY will she will have to be the total package. Funny to me that thought process seems ass backwards. Why date sumone who you kno is unintelligent just because you know you will disguard of them in a few weeks? Thats like wearing the flyest pair of dunks and returning them a month later. They are worn yes but still good but now u have taken the value out of those shoes and u expect sumone else to wear them after you. I duno about you but i buy for the long run. Anyway i wrote this for the world, for men. , shit for women stop wanting me to be pretty and stupid.

Shut Up and Be Pretty

I must be like that Barbie bitch.

Expected to smile, blink, sneeze, and itch.

No major moves or loud movements because

thats just not cute.

Wear those tight pencil skirts, heels, and a nice boot.

Wats that you say u'd rather rock nike's, flats, than these?

Be a lady ...pretty bitch please.

Enuf young lady be quiet like every situation is a formal affair.

Smile and wave when u walk in and they all stare.

Walk close to me when your around my boys and

wen they attempt to squeeze that ass don't make a noise.

Lay on your pretty brown back wit beauty marks and all

Bite your lip as i watch your body fall.

Be sexy at night and pretty in the daylight.

Keep that head done, face made up, and that body must be right.

We hate to see "smart" pretty girls that can't keep it tight.

Southern bell don't come in here raisen hell

Be thick like bisquick but dont u dare get to big

Cook, clean, and over achieve

And wen im not unsure its up to YOU to believe.

Add to my list of pretty girls who i have chosen to ignore now

When im unhappy reverse my emotions its up to you to figure out how.

This world was made up on visions of minorites on thier knees

therefore you never forget to say ur yes sir's, no ma'am's, thank you's, and please

Check you out so well spoken and siddity.

Those black girls are so opinionated wat a pitty

why cant they shut up and just be pretty.

Your so lite skin, almost thin, and so damn tall

But that brain of yours is your downfall.

Don't write shit that makes them think

Who gives a fuck about wat you can produce out of ink.

Just kiss me here, lay there, stand on the X ,

do as i say, wen i say, how i say it and still look better than

the rest.

Remember pretty girl if you stand next to me u must be the best .

Pretty girl i expect more from you

so shut up

and act like u have a clue.

.......sKy iS tHe LiMiT?......

Couldn't sleep. I tossed and turned bugged by annoying thoughts. I had a rather insightful talk with a nu friend tonite that left me thinking....have i been playing my cards rite lately? If you haven't taken the time to find out what exactly you expect from the opposite sex then today may be that day. She mentioned that in life men and women just see things differently. Doesn't mean that any vision is more correct than the other it just means their in different colors, languages, and text and just like spanish love songs...they don't translate well. Men look up and see the moon , women we say the craters. Things just arent preceived the same. I recently decided to splash around in the "dating" world. u kno get my feet wet and in return i kno i will be the typical chick who gets mad wen her hair gets wet. thats rite the dating game is a nasty game with no rules and play by play interaction that can get intense and sumtymes people splash! So im finding myself taking baby steps into this pool im approaching with a life vest and those ugly rubber floaties ur mom use to squeeze on your already sweaty arms. im possibly afraid to drown or get my hair wet but ive decided that ive missed the water and the way it feels. So my friend i ask this question before i let u go ..wen u look in the sky wat do u see? If your sight is full of simple visions such as just the moon and pitch black air then that may say something about your thoughts. Here's to hoping that i found sumthing without simple vision or thougts who wont let me drown. On second thought i may need you to throw me that ChAnEl life vest... just n case.

P.S. COMMENT MY SHIT! :)

....reArrAngiNg LoVe SOngS....

Obama said change

so i guess i should broaden my range

So heres a little piece to prove ive moved on

Now that ive got the courage to rearrange my love song

Cus all the sudden its become clear

Him findin better was always my fear

ANd now that im all healed up

im realizen his facen the impossible

So sir good luck to you

Glad i figured out everything u said i was isnt TRUE

No more acten crazy and acten out

Since we have a black president i"ll follow everyone else

and change wat im about

Quickly Dusting the residue off my heart

Looks like nu smiles have offered

me a fresh start

So as i attempt to step ova ya ego

im glad u finally decided to let me go

So many other things to be wraped up in

Looken at nu faces like "Damn baby boy were u been?"

I missed to many parties and thru away too many names

Now im written simple joys about how im thru wit ur games

Im singnin anotha love song

AND LA LA LA its all about how ur wrong

Its hard to explain how it feels to be free

I guess i should announce my engagement

to getting to kno me

Yes I kno u"ll miss the dimple in my cheek

The " I lOVE YoU" messages thru out ur week

It's okay to remember my kiss

It's only natural to find another lite skin chick try to replace this

Too bad its so hard for u to forget that its me u miss

Monica, Michelle, kochelle and Nikki

Minnie, Grande, Sade,and Vicki

All short term candidates but still no I

All great candidates that will eventually cry

Cus u kno u"ll remember

The way i use to lose it

ANd then try to explain

The priceless way your white tee

use to fit my frame

Good for a giggle

Use to kiss u and make u wiggle

Arm candy

Kept the white peralies handy

Good convo for your fam

Thats rite i claimed u as my man

Silly me now i save that title

That position remains idle

Although suddenly ive began to jock ole boys swag like static to ur sheet

Looks like i took out the chorus and found the *bAsS* to my beat.

COMMENT MY STUF!! please and thank u!:)

.....Did sumbody say change?...

"Although it may seem heaven sent .

We ain't ready to see a black president."

_Tupac Shakur_

i"ve been a way for awhile but for good reason! Ive been busy watchen my world as well as my country changing before my eyes. OBAMA said change and by god thats exactly wat we got! there is a WHOLE lot changing in my personal life but today i have chosen to ignore those changes and issues because I believe my generation has been blessed with the power that no other generation has had and for the first time i can say im proud of my classmates, family, and race. We finally did something that didnt concern money, clubs, music, or clothes. I guess im trying to say that i have been taking time to collect everything around me and attempt to construct the story i will tell to my children and grandchildren in the years to come. I jumped in my roommates car after the results of the election and began to speed to the club to celebrate the victory. Just like every other black young adult from the 18-28 we sung along with Yung jEezy "MY PRESIDENT IS BLACK, MY LAMBOS BLUE..." and for the first time in a long time i was proud to be black. It took one election , thousands of lives, hundreds of demonstrations, and a recession later for me to feel like there was finally a CHANGE.

i am leaving u with a poem by Darian Dauchan
he uses humor to say pretty much how we all feel!
do ur self a favor and enjoy!
