Turning the Phone Off

Phew. It's finally over. This week was tough.


Saturday was a day full of love. It started out grueling. I was supposed to go to the Oprah audition early in the morning, but ended up oversleeping due to the lack of sleep I had the night before. I still woke up super early to get ready for the day. I was terribly disappointed when none of my peoples was picking up the phone and my boyfriend told me he had something else to do in the morning. It made me want to cry and I was super irritated. In the end, everyone came through for me. Although everybody was late, they made it and we had a great presence for the event. The truth is, I was filled with love from my team and for the first time in a long time, I truly feel like I'm part of a great team situation and I'm not doing all the work myself. Still feel alone alot and don't know how to appoint things properly, but I do have a team. Special shouts to Ma, Jason, Cori, Joe, Trey, Dion, Anthony, Cortez, Nick, and Ook for showing me true love and helping out.

A-Town Day wasn't really what I expected. It was a festival of Health Awareness with minimal health booths. There were 3 stages of music with music blaring and tons of kids running around not really engaging in the health aspect of the event. I'm still pleased at the effort and hope to assist in helping them for next year. I think it's important to engage the hip hop generation to the benefits of good health. I am proud that we succeeded in our first vending experience and honestly can't wait for the next ones. I had two tables. One for Lovoi.org, and one for WTFOnlineRadio. Although the traffic wasn't thick, we met some incredible people that I hope to work further with. I'm terribly excited for the growth of these two companies.

After A-Town Day I finally got to see Altered perform live at the Vinyl. They were incredible! I'ma post their video soon for you to see, cause they are really talented. They sound just like their CD. I really believe I can take them to the next level.

With that being said, I'm turning off my phone today. Don't want to speak to anybody. Just want to relax!!!

  1. I actually went to Roswell for the Oprah thing too, with my group. Turns out I and a couple other people weren't needed, so we went home (my wristband is still in my friend's SUV). There were alot of people out there. And it's wonderful the things you do and then making connects to work with others to further your goals!

    You rock!
