Self Control and Manipulation

Having self control, is a complex that everyone suffers from, because we get passionate about things; for instance, the fans of the Mexico and Nigeria sold out the Georgia Dome Stadium; that's right reportedly 72,000 fans gathered last night to cheer on their teams. And, the fans came out in the most extravagant apparel along with noise makers, banners, signs, face paintings, drums, wind horns etc! And, of course there was no self- control because the fans were more intune with the passion of their teams and their countries!

And, ironically, Wednesday was a day of testing; "How much control do you have?" Good question; and with control does your mood lead to vehement anger? Also, another good question.
Most people encourage, ignoring situational confrontations that would lead to anger; which is ultimately a sign of no self-control.

So what do you do when then "natural factors" lead you to a lost of self control? Rephrased, I would say this: "What do you do when your conscience informs you of aggregated frustration?" Maybe that is what Rihanna was unapologetic for? Anger, lost of self control; and not becoming the victim of manipulation.

I've experience many instances where my anger leads to a lost of self control; and I never apologize for being angry; "that's  like apologizing for being real." And Let the People Say: "YA FEEL ME! "  Yes!



So when you connect the dots, you can discover where your frustration and lost of self control derives.
Never apologize for being real; apologize for something else like; being insensitive, or oblivious; or inconsiderate.

Another One Bites the Dusk....

"Single Ladies," the popular television series; written and created by Stacy Littlejohn is being canceled. I was very, no extremely disappointed to learn of this news. If you read my blog, you know that the show is one of my favorites. I feel like that is the problem; inconsistency with television production. Viacom is allegedly working with the producers on a different show; that poses to be better;so, if the network is concerned about ratings, why would you eliminate a show that is doing well to incorporate a new show?

If I had my way, I would continue to fund the show, "Single Ladies" while introducing viewers to another show. I feel that by doing so, VH1 would propel their network into a multifaceted network that caters to all ethnicities, by producing shows that extends beyond culture and racial lines. I just feel that it is not a very wise decision.

 If you really look at the network; they offer reality, music and music specials, psychological programs, and typical everyday television series; well they could because right now "Single Ladies" is the only show that holds that slot. Furthermore, on a Monday night, if everything is alright; I can ease into my evening with VH1, and more often than not, I watch that one network for about six hours effortlessly.  So thats that!

Why dont we FALL in love? February, Langston Hughes History and The FAME of Chris Brown

I, Too, Sing America
  by Langston Hughes

I, too, sing America.
I am the darker brother.
They send me to eat in the kitchen
When company comes,
But I laugh,
And eat well,
And grow strong.
Tomorrow,
I'll be at the table
When company comes.
Nobody'll dare
Say to me,
"Eat in the kitchen,"
Then.
Besides,
They'll see how beautiful I am
And be ashamed—
I, too, am America.

Well, I personally think your good out weighs your bad, and your talent has kept what is left of R&B alive! Stay Focused; you too Sing ICONIC!

In November 2005, Chris Brown’s Scott Storch-produced “Run It!” -- a rewrite of Usher’s “Yeah!” -- topped the Billboard Hot 100, making the 16-year-old singer the first male artist in over a decade to top the chart with a debut single. While there was nowhere to go but down, at least in terms of chart positions, the pop-oriented R&B vocalist was only getting started. By the end of the decade, he was one of the biggest active pop stars, with a clutch of Top Ten singles and platinum albums to his credit, along with constant comparisons to Michael Jackson and several acting roles on the side.An immediate Top Ten hit when it was released in 2005, Chris Brown not only featured the number one “Run It!” but two other Top Ten singles in “Yo (Excuse Me Miss)” and “Say Goodbye.”Exclusive, released in 2007 and a bit of a departure from the squeaky-clean image displayed throughout the debut, was even more successful, featuring the number one single "Kiss Kiss" and two other Top Five hits. Yet another Top Five hit came with “No Air,” a duet with Jordin Sparks that appeared on Sparks' own self-titled album. Weeks after the 2011 Grammy Awards ceremony, Brown released his fourth album, F.A.M.E., which already had four singles on the charts. That album topped the Billboard 200 and the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop charts, and it also took the 2012 Grammy for Best R&B Album. During the ceremony, he performed a medley of "Beautiful People" (off F.A.M.E.) and "Turn Up the Music," the latter of which previewed Fortune, his fifth album, released in May 2012Read more at http://www.pandora.com/chris-brown?bio

For Score and Um Like four years Ago; Hmm Im still... Well,,,,,, youll have to read for the end of that thought!

After four and a half years of turbulence, laughter, and tears, I had finally completed my program at Alabama State University and I would receive a Bachelor of Arts in English, soon after. Yes! I was excited that I had the will power to stay on course and see my program through even though there were many distractions along the way. So many that I had not truly thought about what would be the most effective and strategic transition for my future. With this uncertainty probing at my brain, I enrolled at Alabama State once again, this time as a graduate student in the counseling program. In the beginning I fully enjoyed my classes and I was really engaged in the idea of becoming a school counselor.

While taking the classes, I didn’t feel very confident because I was not receiving positive feedback from all of my professors or my advisor. Although I was doing well academically in this program, I felt a bit confused. I really felt as though I wasn’t receiving the proper guidance in order to become a successful counselor, in fact I actually sensed that some of my professors felt that I wasn’t capable to be a counselor. I feel that they were judging me, and not truly taking the time to get to know a really colorful, passionate, and driven individual. But that is in the past, and I am excited that I took the high road and enrolled at the University of the Rockies to complete my program.

Here I am a twenty-five year old unemployed woman determined to complete my call of duty. With all that I have experienced, I have not let the storms of life damper my zeal! I enjoy the fine arts such a jazz, tap, and ballet, the opera, and wine. In addition to those things, I also enjoy all sports, cooking, shopping – of course, and web browsing! I enjoy working with the youth because I always want to feel like a guiding light to those that are lost or appear to be.

I am not a confrontational individual and I truly believe that things can be resolved with out violence or any conflict. I was very excited when my enrollment counselor informed me of this program. I feel that this degree will help me achieve one of my goals in life. I enjoy writing, it is something that I am very passionate about and I hope to complete a novel in the future.

In addition to writing, I take pleasure in listening to music, attending plays and traveling. With all that I have experienced, I love humanity and I want to provide my thoughts, my service, my kindness, and my well being to the betterment of the world, wherever I am sent.  I love creating and building new friendships; I think that friendship is a very important element to self-growth and universal understanding! I look forward to creating and building new friendships with everyone in the classroom!  

In short, be the change you want to see in the world!
