SPOTLIGHT: "The Preacher's Kid"

"The Preacher's Kid" is the upcoming film starring R&B singer LeToya Luckett. She plays Angie, the daughter of a reverend who pretty much lives his life by the bible. Feeling restricted by the title of "Preacher's Kid", Angie decides she needs to find her own way after seeing a gospel play starring co-star R&B singer Tank. Angie wants to be a part of the play and against her fathers wishes auditions and ends up going on tour with the cast. Sure to have found her calling, Angie quickly realizes that not everything is what it seems and is forced to find herself and find a way to mend the tarnished bridge between she and her father...

This film has been getting alot of buzz since it was announced that LeToya would be starring in it and after several push backs, the film has a seemingly final release date of January 2010. Today the official theatrical trailer was released. The film also stars "Half & Half's" Essence Atkins and "ER's" Sharif Atkins along with Clifton Powell of "Next Friday" and "The Brothers".
Check out the trailer below!

Being Single While Your Friends Are Taken....

Wassup yall....haven't posted anything lately....been in my own world...but I came across this post on another persons blog and I thought it was interesting...It surely fits into my life right now...check it out!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Relationships....Are they overated? Everyone wants to be loved, everyone wants to be able to say "I have that special somebody that I can come home to." But unfortunately your friend can say all of that and all you have to come home to is a Pepperoni Hot Pocket waiting for you in the freezer.

The holidays are apporaching and everyone is "Boo'ed" up yet you are by yourself wondering why you are still single? But you can most certainly be happy being single while your friends are pre-occupied with relationships.

You remember those days when you and your best friend ran the town, you had wild sex stories to tell each other the next night and the process repeats the next weekend. But recently your friend found a boyfriend and you start to see less and less of them. Now that your friend is gone you kind of have more time on your hands to yourself but the last thing you should dois consider it to be lonliness....FLIP THAT SHIT! Think about it as a chance to put your energy into making your life more exciting. Some things that you can put this new found energy into:


-Writing a blog [why not get your thoughts out there for the public to read]
-Plan a little get away by yourself or to meet up with a long lost friend
-Work out [get that body looking good!]
-Check out new places you haven't been before
-Be more social with other people you haven't met or have kind of put off to the side
-Get a pet [you can put all of that love and affection towards it]


One of the most important things is to be greatful for your solitude and your single life while you still have it. You could meet that special person at any point and time and there goes your single life...there goes your worrying about you and you alone. Now you have to think about someone else. Right now you are able to be as spontanious as you want to be but as soon as that man comes along, you are going to have to work someone else into your life and work around their schedule as well.

New Music: JoJo-"I Hate Love"

Hey! So i just heard this new song that was leaked by JoJo!
It's called "I Hate Love". The lyrics in this song are so on point that I know most of yall will be with her on this one! I hear she's still working on the new cd "All I Want Is Everything" but with a new label. So hopefully we'll hear a official single soon cause I know everyone was feeling "25 to Life"!


I'm gonna post the lyrics and a link to the song, let me know what you think!!

"I Hate Love"
-JoJo

L.O.V.E
Oooh..
L.O.V.E
Mm..

Tired of being in the wind of mind go find a love club
I've come close, get a dose, but it just ain't enough
Right guy, wrong time
Right time, wrong guy
What's the use? Why even try?
What's the rush gettin' caught up and then it's over
Now, I'm crushed and I'm cryin' and there's no shoulder
It plays out so different in my dream
Things ain't always what they seem

And that's why...
I don't get all excited when somebody brings me flowers
Ain't gonna to be sittin' on my phone more than an hour
It hurts but I still run to it
Oh, I hate love
I hate love
Scared of what it does to me, but I just gotta have it
Been right in my reach but for some reason I can't grab it
Love keeps hatin' on me
So I hate love
I hate love

Don't wanna hear nobody tellin' me they needed more time
Questionin' where I've been, all up in mine
New guy, old lines
Old guy, new lies
Don't know why I even try
What's the rush gettin' caught up and then it's over
Now, I'm crushed and I'm cryin' and there's no shoulder
It plays out so different in my dream
Things ain't always what they seem

And that's why...
I don't get all excited when somebody brings me flowers
Ain't gon to be sittin' on my phone more than an hour
It hurts but I still run to it
Oh, I hate love
I hate love
Scared of what it does to me, but I just gotta have it
Been right in my reach but for some reason I can't grab it
Love keeps hatin' on me
So I hate love
I hate love

The more that I say it, the less that I mean it
I just want somebody for me
And the more that I see it, the more that I want it
But I need something to make me believe
They tell me one day it will be worth the wait,
But I don't want to hurt all the way
So I'm not gonna settle, 'cause I know better
So understand what I say

Oooh,..
I hate..
I hate love
L.O.V.E
I hate

I don't get all excited when somebody brings me flowers
Ain't gon to be sittin' on my phone more than an hour
It hurts but I still run to it
Oh, I hate love
I hate love
Scared of what it does to me, but I just gotta have it
Been right in my reach but for some reason I can't grab it
Love keeps hatin' on me
So I hate love
I hate love

I hate..
I hate love..

I can't stand what it does to me
Ooh..

I hate..
I hate love

Loveeeee


Ima Keep It Real With You....

Tonight I had my lil independence party with the crew......
I guess it wasn't meant to be....no need in being sad.
These two songs played in my head ALL night!


Tonight was soo much fun! Life is good!

The Shock Of Being Single Again.....

You ever break up with someone and for days after it, you feel fine. No tears...no sadness...nothing. You are fine and moving on with your life....then that one day, reality slaps the SHIT out of you! That was me last night! Omg I was a wreck! I couldn't sit still...couldn't seem to relax. I had this really uneasy and anxious feeling. I could NOT figure out what it was for the life of me. Then I realized it....it was finally setting in that I wasn't involved with anyone anymore....I had just "broken up" with someone. lol.

I called my girl Kayla and she was asking me if I was sad and all that...but I wasn't. Not at all actually. It wasn't a "omg I miss him" feeling cause that couldn't be farther from the truth. But she made me realize that it was the feeling of being single again...the shock. Even though he and I were never official or "exclusive" (Day26 moment!) as soon as she said that, I knew why I was feeling that way! It was about 12 or 1 am and I realized that was the time where I had gotten used to being on the phone with him or texting him and last night....I wasn't. It was just me and I had NO one to talk to! I mean I had friends I could've talked to but it wasn't the same. I had gotten used to always having someone to talk to at night and having one person who I was getting my attention and affection from. Now I don't have that anymore so its like...im back to square one.

Oh well! I had no business dealin wit his ass anyway....when you do more arguing with someone than you do anything else BEFORE yall even officially become "together"...thats a MAJOR red flag! Sooooo better now than never! No sadness over here....

o0o0o....last week I wrote a post about a friend of mine and how our friendship had kinda went sour over numerous things Well....he read the post and we ended up talkin about it and kinda reconciling. We seem to have grown alot and seem to be on the same page with alot of things now. We shared somethings that I hope will bring us closer than we were before. We've always been close but the conversation we had that night was pretty awesome! What I neglected to mention was the he was one of my ex's....gotta admit, talking to him and being around him again kinda stirred up some old feelings. Won't even lie....never got over him. We actually kinda talked about gettin back together, but I was dealing with the dude and he's talkin to someone too so that probably won't happen. :-/ *tear* lol

Let me clarify something though...when i say "dealing" with someone, it usually means we're talking or trying to get to the point in which we're together. The guy that I just let go, we were "dealing" with each other. He never made it to being my dude. Very few do....very few will. I've been in three relationships including the one I just mentioned. One of my friends mentioned to me that it seems like I jump from relationship to relationship....NO. I'm toooo picky for that and my standards are too high....I just don't see the point in closing the door on opportunity....gotta give people a chance and see what happens so when someone catches my attention, I go with it until I see reason to let it go or make it official...

Aiight well...im tired now! Going to bed...just needed to rant. NIGHTY NIGHTY!!
