Soca On DEMAND

Hey People,

So, if you don't know, imma tell you, I am a

major fan of SOCA!! As a Bajan Native, I express my culture through music and dancing

and my love for Soca has gone far beyond an infatuation. I mean, my ipod is 75% SOCA!! So of course it was only right that I stop by The Base Nightclub and pay respect to my fellow west indians on my last day in NY for Spring break. Soca on Demand is far from new considering it was part 21 but it was still my first time attending and like they say...it's MADDDDDDD!! I mean it would have to be fun because people go, and the clubs stay packed to capacity...I mean they've been doing this since September 1st 2006! Not only did I have fun, I enjoyed the club's scenery and comfortable atmosphere. I also like the fact that the bar was on point!! An actual BAR and not like some Brooklyn spots that just sell a couple drinks. Not that I was drinking Alcohol (Not a fan of underage drinking), but it was good to see that they were on their grind!!

Overall, I had a great time!! I love being 18 and able to go Clubbing. So LITTLE DRAMA...so MUCH FUN!!! Check the pics...

Look out for the Thusty Troupe Trip To Six Flags on July 11th for the Soca Performances Live!! It's gonna be MADDDD!! Check out their Facebook Page for Events...

Making The Band 4

So, I haven't been on here since December. I have to step my game up!! Anyways, the whole dispute over Respect... Diddy had to know that Day 26 would fuss and fight... I mean look how much respect Diddy has...The apple doesn't fall too far from the tree, HELLO! I think that they all need to grow up and check themselves. This is REAL!! They must think they won the competition and that was it. No, its time to get your head in the game. You have appointments, shows, concerts, radio interviews, rehearsals, studio time...GET WITH IT!! Like, I can't understand what they thought it would be like. Your R&B artist...you have to work just as hard as everyone else. Not to mention they are new artist which means they need to keep up with the what's up or they aren't gonna have any fans. Diddy needs to get on top of his game cuz his group is slacking, I thought they would be the ones to set the record straight but it seems like it isn't going to happen...just like every other band he made...they seem to be crumbling... I think he left them in the oven to long because they sure are SOFT!! Do leave a comment or respond to my poll!! Check out my people, see who I'm following!! George...He's the NEXT BIG THING!!

First Blog!! Inspired by George!

So, Today marked my first Reading Day of my first fall semester in college. I was definitely excited to go away to school and explore new things, and I have to admit, I'm doing it. Although, everyday is a struggle for me, being away from my family and friends, I was blessed to find five people who make a difference in my life everyday. My good friend Taria, who I can pretty much call my best friend at UD, helps me overcome my "toddler" ways, as she would say. I am so excited to have someone like her in my life, who has inspired me to change my major, helps me write papers, and helps me stay on track. Other than academics, she's also pretty much like me, in a whole different aspect. Kind of weird, I know! We love event planning!! Can't wait until our Xmas party Saturday, but other than that, she has introduced me to people on campus, who will have a great impact on my life in the near future. I love her dearly! 

         Then, there's Jenee. What can I say? You can take girls out NY, but you can’t take the NY out of the girls!! We're constantly teased about our "NY accents," but it just feels so much better to have someone to share in the pressure with. =] Also, Jenee reminds me of a lot of my friends.  She's like the baby in the group, which is weird because, I am the youngest, but its okay!! I love Jenee because she helps me with my math, and I help her.  We'll be taking two classes together next semester, so this should be fun! More late night library trips!! YAY!!!

         Imani is the girl who's just all confused. I love her because she speaks her mind, but sometimes she gets a little out of hand. She always thinks she's right about everything, and for everyone who knows me... KNOW'S SO DO I!!! So, we clash... A LOT! But, I still appreciate her in my life. She helps me with my Chemistry and Biology! Oh, I can't leave out the fact that Imani is stuck between identities and is a strong believer in whatever issue she'll fight. Like Kwanzaa... she doesn't like the holiday because she doesn't believe it represents "Black People." If you just said HUH? To yourself, then you understand how I feel, and what I have to go through everyday! But yeah, I still love her! 

         Moving right along to Jon! Jon is the only boy in the group, and we pick on him a lot!! It's fun but we love him! Well some of us do [Taria and I]... But, Jon is cool. He's an educated Black Brother who goes for what he wants. Most of all, I just think he's an overachiever, but there is nothing wrong with a brother who can make the deans list and still have time to play his corny Wii and PS2 every night... LOSER!!

         Lastly, We have miss FASTTTTTT!! Aka STACEY! She's the little hotpot of the group, always running home to be with her boo. I don’t blame her, what I don’t like is why ha bitch ass constantly lies to us. But, it is ok! We love her anyways. Soon enough, she'll learn that WE ARE MORE IMPORTANT!!! 

         Besides everyone's individual impact on my life, we all eat and study together on a daily basis. We also go on group outings to the mall and trips! And I can't leave out our weekly movie night, in Taria's room, courtesy of MY NETFLIX'S. I just love them all, Imma miss them winter break!! Good luck on finals you guys! I’m off to right my paper! 

~~> Life isn't enjoyable, unless you have people you love to share it with!!
