New Kid on the Block

Two months and no new posts? Dang it! And yet, it’s no surprise.

Do you remember how I said I was going to Utah in July and that I was also going to see Katy Perry in concert while visiting? Well, I didn’t. To both. L I was planning on going to visit towards the end of July but nothing went as planned once I moved out to Virginia. Funny how that happens in life sometimes. Despite the lack of plans going through things have been pretty good in Virginia overall. Work is good and it looks like I will be getting a few more hours each week. Yes! I just finished my second math class. *Phew* Final grades haven’t been posted yet but I’m pretty sure I’m getting at least a C. *fingers crossed* Thanks Raylene for helping me!! I also just interviewed for a care giver position. There’s a family in town that is looking for someone to watch their son a few hours after school. There’s also another family that is looking for a nanny to watch their four kids during the week. The twins will be in kindergarten and have a half-day schedule for I would watch all four of them for three hours. The rest of the time I would only have to watch the two younger ones. I’m working on scheduling an interview with them so we’ll see how that goes, too.

Oh! We got a second dog about a week ago. Well, my sister them did. He’s a black lab and apparently he’s a full-bred American Lab. Which are rare. Pretty cool, huh? We adopted him from the SPCA. He’s about a year and a half and his name was Mater. We just changed his name and made official today. Welcome Rastah to the family! J He and Kahlua play together all the time. It’s still a bit of a battle for dominance in the house but they mostly get along. It’s probably gonna take a while before that’s settled since Rastah is a bit older than Kahlua so he thinks he should have power, whereas it’s Kahlua’s house and he’s the first dog. They’re both just stubborn. But that’s what happens when you become part of the family. J Haha!

Today’s song is from Nicki Minaj. She is totally taking over the airwaves! At first I was a little resistant to her because she seemed to be in like every song. But as I’ve listened to the songs that she’s featured in I’ve learned to love her and especially after listening to her album I’ve fully fallen in love w/ her music. Hope you see the awesomeness that IS Nicki Minaj. J Be strong, be happy, and find the joy in your life.

Right Thru Me (edited) - Nicki Minaj

You see right through me
How do you do that (3x)
How do you (x5 )

You let me win
You let me ride
You let me rock
You let me slide
And when they looking
You let me hide
Defend my honor
Protect my pride
The good advice
I always hated
But looking back
It made me greater
You always told me
Forget the haters
Just get my money
Just get my weight up
Know when I'm lying
Know when I'm crying
It's like you got it
Down to a science
Why am I trying
No you ain't buying
I tried to fight it
Back with defiance
You make me laugh
You make me hoarse
From yelling at you
And getting at you
Picking up dishes
Throwing them at you
Why are you speaking
When no one asked you

You see right through me
How do you do that (x3)
How do you (x5)
You see right through me
How do you do that (x3)
How do you (x5)

What are we doing
Could you see through me
And you say Nicki
And I say who me
And you say no you
And I say screw you
Then you start dressing,
And you start leaving
And I start crying
And I start screaming
The heavy breathing,
But what's the reason
Always get the reaction you wanted
I'm actually fronting
I'm asking you something
Yo, answer this question
Class is in session
Tired of letting
Passive aggression
Control my mind
Capture my soul
Okay you're right
Just let it go
Okay you got it
It's in the can
Before I played it
You knew my hand
You could turn a free
Throw to a goal
***** got the peep hole to my soul

You see right through me
How do you do that (x3)
How do you (x5)
You see right through me
How do you do that(x3)
How do you (x5)

Stop! Ohhh
Stop! Ohhh
Would you just stop looking through me cause I can't take it
No I can't take it

You see right through me
How do you do that (x3)
How do you (x5)

You see right through me
You see right through me baby
You see right through me
You see right through me
