make it stop
People PLEASE stop it with Paris Hilton, I am fucking... yes fucking sick of hearing about her. She is not news, I sometimes am a fan of Larry King Live when he has a good interview. Like I will be watching Monday to see what Isiah Washington has to say about being let go from Grey's. But you can not tell me Paris Hilton has enough worth wild things to say to cover an entire 60 minute interview. How was life in jail? How was the food? Where the inmates nice? I dont give a shit.
While we foucs on Paris;
A car bomb killed 22 people in Baghdad
Torrential rains ravage central Texas
NYC power outage snarls traffic, trains
President Bush trys to push his plan to legalize millions of unlawful immigrants
The Supreme Court has rejected school assignment plans that take account of students' race in two major public school districts.
A battle between Edwards and Coulter was sparked by an appearance on GMA.
Senate Issues Subpoenas in Wiretapping Case
Residents are rushing to leave their homes as flames come closer in South Lake Tahoe, California.
Maybe its foolish of me to think that because of all the others issues in the world that we would focus on those rather than if jail was really hard for Paris. Dont get me wrong I love my celebrity news as well but on Access Hollywood, E!, not on Fox News or hell even my local news.

feeling the burn
You know what I love about reading a good book, the fact how it inspires me to write, to be who i want to be, and it gives me hope. I just finished reading Twenty Something - The Quarter-Life Crsis of Jack Lancaster by Iain Hollingshead.The book is basically about Jack a 25 year old guy in London who quits his job, dumps his girlfriend, all because he's not happy and he wants to find his purpose in life. There were so many points hit soo close to home to me, I have been feeling like Im in a transition stage in my life.
Things I found important in my life I see how foolish they really are, case in point I was watching EXTRA tonight, and I realized how much of a joke those shows are ("going inside the lives of celebrities".) They tease stories with false headlines to make you stay tunned only to find out the story was full of shit. Its a part of the business I realize that, a business I once thought I wanted to be in, but now at the moment I have no respect for it.
Sure I have dreams of rocking out a few novels, maybe a tv show or two, but its not for the fame but for the love of the craft. I remember watching an interview with MC (I know a constant point of reference for me, just like oprah what do you expect im black and gay lol,) she was saying how when she was a little girl she wanted to be famous, but never to the point where lies would be printed about her and her life would be under a microscope. Does becoming a public figure mean you are required to give up all sense of privacy? That is def a topic that I may go into another time but now its about the damn book.
I must say that I am really proud of myself for actually reading a book rather than spending my free time online checking out myspace and porn. For anyone 25 or any age really but def that 24-26 gap that feels lost without direction I should highly suggest picking up the book. For myself it was refreshing reading about a character who goes thru the same struggles taht I have/am. I honestly felt that I was only person who felt a particular way, and now I know Im not alone. I just wish more people who be more open about their struggles, because there really is strength in numbers.

all my favorites
Kanye West celebrated his 30th birthday in style Thursday night with a huge bash at the Louis Vuitton store in New York that brought out a bevy of big-time guests including Jay-Z, John Legend and Mariah Carey. This would have marked MC's first public apperence in a while. Nice to see her back and looking grrreat!
