Playing Housewives

Hello Lovely people! Been awhile now huh?

My commitment to this blog is slowing down because I now have other duties to perform, but we will see how long I can keep up...Will be a challenge :) 

So…

Instead of being an excellent student by studying even during my mini-Maley-time. I constantly tend to use those 2-3 hours watching TV, especially Reality Shows such as Real Housewives of Atlanta, Love and Hip Hop Atlanta etc. Nothing wrong with that right? I mean it is my time lol. Well here it is…while watching those shows I suddenly realized why most of these supposed-to-be “real” housewives are divorced, going through a divorce or worse fight for a stupid guy like Steven J and putting their self-worth on the line. From my understanding and trust me it could be just me but I honestly think most of these women started from a very dysfunctional and economically difficult time in their lives, lived certain life-styles (Strippers, bartenders, waitresses socialites, striving artists etc) and then married men with what I call “big pockets”. What this means is that they are men with big careers and money, but are surrounded by heifers who are willing to do anything to become their baby-mommas. Of course with society being somewhat accepting the idea that men are inherently created to have inter-course at any time because they cannot control their sexual urges; as if they are the only creatures with needs! These men are likely to cheat and/or have multiple partners. When this happens word on the street will be that the wife did not perform her wifey-duties!! That is some bull-sh*t right there. Men cheat because they choose to cheat. It is not like the other woman is holding a gun/knife in her hand and saying “if you do not have intercourse with me I will kill you”…No!!

Oooookay back to the women lol

Most of these women at some point had a mind-set that they had/have found the “Mr. Right” who is financially steady and so they settle, knowing very well he comes with a lot of baggage. Instead of pursuing their dreams of becoming fashion-designers, musicians, and attaining academic professions, they are busy being or rather playing house-wives and before they know it, they are trapped for life especially when children are involved. Then they become obsessed with living large and like Nene Leaks said “keeping up with the Joneses” and showing off for other heifers to hate on, because the reality is that nowadays women dress to make other women jealous and wish they were them. Then the trouble comes in…with little money and enough media attention to be on TV, they suddenly want to do this, do that at the age of 30-50 O_O

 They start making their own money, sometimes even more than their husbands. Unfortunately, men with their ego of being the only bread-winners cannot handle it. The drama kicks in…divorce papers are being filled and the women are asking for more than what they can chew on. They state that their partners are not being supportive…of course he is not going to be supportive because he is used to you always asking for money and depending on him.

In my head ladies, 

how you get them is how you lose them! Therefore,

Instead of opening your legs, pushing babies out, becoming trapped forever, and pushing your own dreams of becoming independent and successful to the side all in the name of you have found “the one” why don’t you push “the one” aside first and focus on YOU!! That’s all. However, I will be watching and criticizing because at the end of the day they are very entertaining. 

2014 Resolution

THISISMALEY

Hi Guys, it has been long since I last updated this blog. Honestly, I think I had a lot of time when I decided to make a blog but now I am busy busy with other things in my life that I do not think I can update as often as I would like to :(

Nevertheless, I will try and update whenever time permits...Always feel free to like my facebook page, I might be updating things there more often :)

My Christmas was relaxing. Me and my family did not have a large or traditional one this year due to busy schedule. However, we did eat a delicious meals and watched few Christmas movies.

As for the New Year, I hope I will have time to update this hobby of mine...but hi there is not guarantee.

I decided to write my New Year resolution and share it with you guys...so Enjoy :P

For this New Year, I am not wishing for much than I already have. I am not wishing or stating that there is going to be a new me, but rather there will be a better me. My 2014 resolution is to be HAPPY!!! especially with my family and close friends. 

I want to meet new, exciting and positive people. I want to be successful in my academics and in everything I put my mind to, I want to have a good health, good friends that care about me and my well-being. Good friends that want the best for me and good friends that know the true meaning of friendship.

I want 2014 and the years to come to make my heart full of joy, peace and tranquility and the ability to forgive those who have wronged me. I know I can accomplish a lot of things such as my education, goals and good networking and even satisfy my materialistic needs if I am HAPPY! 

I want me and my siblings to be closer than before, I want us to make changes we so badly want to make in our beloved country Liberia, and I want us to keep loving and caring for each other as we always do. 

I want the women in my life to live long to enjoy my accomplishments, to have good health and happiness and continue to be strong, brave and independent heroes who have always been there for me. 

I want the men in my life to stay strong and encouraging.

I wish everyone a Happy and Loving 2014 and "may the odds be ever in your favor" (Hunger Games).  

Stay Bless <3

Me Time

                                                                 Hey guys! :) 

I have been a little too lazy to update my blog. However, I decided to do so TONIGHT with no contemplation!!!

I am done with my exams...Yeaaaaah! Right after that I left for a Pre-Christmas vacation because I thought I deserved it after all that hard work :)

I have not been up-to much lately, I guess the semester drained the energy out of me. Furthermore, my internship at Pro Bono Law SK ended and I love my result :) I am looking for future employment with them so I am excited about that. 

I really do not have a lot to say today because all I am thinking about right now is getting up to clean my room which is a hot MeSS... AGAIN!!! So I will let the pictures and videos do the talking today. 

Before that...Can you guys believe that Beyonce has a new album?!! I know RIGHT!! I cannot wait to go for another concert :)

I cannot wait for the full video with my hubby DRAKE!!!

I really enjoy listening to J Cole "Lost One" song, it has a lot of reading

to it and I think most of today's younger generation can relate.

I apology for the language :)

Baby girl, I can’t imagine what it’s like for you

A nigga barely over 20, where the hell we gon live?

Where am I gon get that money

I refuse to bring my boy or my girl in this world

When I aint got shit to give ‘em

And I’m not with them niggas who be knocking girls up and skate out

Girl, you gotta think bout how the options weigh out

And I ain't too proud to tell ya that I cry sometimes

And girl I know it hurt but if this world was perfect

Then we could make it work but I doubt it

And I aint too proud to tell ya that I cry sometimes

And girl I know it hurt but if this world was perfect

Then we could make it work but I doubt it

She said nigga you got the nerve

This a new life up in my stomach

Regardless if I’m your wife

This new life here I’mma love it

I ain't budging, I’ll do this by my muthafucking self

See my momma raised me without no muthafucking help from a man

But I still don’t understand how you could say that

Did you forget all those conversations that we had way back

Bout your father and you told me that you hate that nigga

Talkin’ bout he a coward and you so glad that you aint that nigga

Cause he left your mamma when she had you and he ain't shit

And here you go doin’ the same shit

You ain't shit nigga!

And I aint too proud to tell ya that I cry sometimes

And aint nobody perfect, still we can make it work but you doubt it

Now, I aint too proud to tell ya that I cry sometimes

I cry sometimes about it

And boy that shit hurt

And aint nobody perfect, still we can make it work but you doubt it

They say everything happens for a reason

And people change like the seasons

They grow apart she wanted him to show his heart and say he loved her

He spoke the magic words and on the same day he fucked her

Now she wide open

She put a ring up on his finger if she could

But he loved her cause the pussy good

But she aint no wife though

Uh oh, she tellin’ him she missed her period like typo’s

He panicking, froze up like a mannequin

A life grows inside her now he asking “is it even mine”

What if this bitch aint even pregnant dawg

Could she be lying?

And she be crying cause he acting distant

Like ever since I told you this nigga you acting different

And all his niggas saying man these hoes be trapping niggas

Playing with niggas emotions like they some action figures

Swear they get pregnant for collateral

It’s like extortion, man if that bitch really pregnant

Tell her get an abortion

Uh, but what about your seed nigga?

(What about your seed nigga?)

And I aint too proud to tell ya that I cry sometimes

I cry sometimes about it

And I aint too proud to tell ya that I cry sometimes

I cry sometimes about it

I attended my sister's  High School play "The Drowsy Chaperon" and she was fantastic. I was a bit nervous at first because she was wearing heels...something which is not so much of her forte, but to my surprise she aced it so YEAH for her <3

Like I stated earlier, I left to Banff, Alberta, Canada after my exams because I honestly believed that I deserved a vacation after too much reading and not enough time to take care of my self. Banff was perfect, I met other Norwegians who were there for the winter ski Word Cup :)

I had some relaxing moments with mineral hot tub baths and going up the Gondola to have a better view of Banff. I stayed in Canmore, which was also very beautiful and they even had a restaurant/pub called The Drake!!

I had an awesome time and I cannot wait to go there again...This time during the summer :)

Finally... In order for my Russkort not to get ruined, I put them on my wall in a somewhat heart shape :P

Deuces for now <3

This Week cray cray

These few weeks have been busy for me! School, work and being too lazy to even recognize the fact that I have a blog to update :P

So here it is. I attended my first Rodeo show some weeks ago (forgot the date...that's what happens when you do not update your blog to often), and let me tell you...it was fun!! I was amazed by the various talents I saw. At the same time I felt bad the way the animals were being treated. Nevertheless, it was really fun and interesting. 

Before I tell what my next adventure was, I want to share a few words. 

You are who you choose to show

To whoever it may concern, I have been hearing a lot of girls, even guys complaining that people have the wrong impression of who they truly are. Most people feel like others do not know them enough to have opinions, that other people are being nasty towards them. The truth of the matter is that how you depict yourself to the world is how people are going to see and describe you. For instance, if you dress like an Emo or like a loose girl, people will address you as one. If you act too arrogant, people will treat you according to your arrogance. If you choose to wear a lot of make-up and look like a bimbo because being an attractive but unintelligent or frivolous person is what you are, then that is how you will be viewed as. My mother always tells me, and I quote “Maley, please make sure you dress appropriate in every situation you find yourself in. The way you dress and the way you carry yourself is how people will treat you.” As annoying that might be sometimes, especially one of those days when I just do not give a f***, I agree with her. 

In this generation ain’t nobody got time to sit down and get to know a passing stranger. Nobody got time to look beyond what a person has to offer internally…yes that’s how ignorant we are! All people do these days is to go through social media such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr you name it and view others pictures or videos and judge them based on what they see. Have you ever heard of the phrase, “seeing is believing” well now you do. What you post on-line and what you wear and how you treat others has its consequences. If you go around thinking you are better than everybody else, people will want to prove to you that you are not better than them. Others might even go as far as proving to you that you are a wasted space on earth…yes that is how mean others can be. If you make statements about others behind their back, they will surly make an even uglier statement about you. Television and movies are becoming influential. Girls want to look dead gorgeous, and boys want to be too cool and too fly way too soon. In the midst of all this, most people loose themselves and take on other people’s personality.

Yes I am aware of the fact that you have the freedom to be whatever the f*** you want to be…trust me I am taking notes in my law class on freedom of speech, but also keep in my that other people have the freedom to say whatever they want to say. You have to stop pretending and be yourself, because at the end of the day it is who you are that will get you where you will be in the future. If you want people to get to know the real you, go ahead and show it to them. Do not sit and cry at home or write on social media that others are treating you poorly when you are somewhat the problem to how people view you. Remember people will see and hear what they want to hear, thus it is up to you to change their perspectives.

Now that that is said, let's continue scrolling down :)

The CFL (Canadian Football League) Grey cup was held in Saskatchewan for the first time after a very long time and luckily for them their Team the SK Rough Riders made it to the end and won the championship.

Arts

I might be a soccer for weddings but I am a bigger soccer for paintings.

Here are a few ones I browsed through the internet and found. 

1) Beyonce's fan made for her.

2) Micheal Jackson: unknown artist

3) Random arts I like as well

I also got myself a new hair, and Am loving it so far based on the fact that I cannot stop kissing myself in the mirror :P But I also miss my dyed blond hair from London this summer. 

Most of my days have been calm with school work, but I did find the time to make food :)

Let me leave you with my new found philosopher Trent Shelton, on being perfect for just being who you truly are :)

Remembrance Day

'We are remembering'

This was my first Remembrance day in Regina, and I have to tell ya’ll it was cold!!! Despite the fact that the sun was shining, people were wearing heavy winter jackets and breathing out cold air. I was surprised that so many people showed up and actually stayed till the entire ceremony was over. It was a remarkable moment and I am happy I was part of it.

Across the country Canadians were stopping today to reflect on the sacrifices of wars past and modern-day conflicts coming to an end. Today we are remembering the people who dedicated their lives to serve their country, both women and men. We are remembering those who fought for peace and justice. 

We are also remembering the women who played significant roles during both the First and Second World War. Whether it was at home, industries or abroad. In Canada women on the home front contributed to the war effort by doing farm work, planting and harvesting crops, taking care of children as well as managing the finances. At the beginning of the First World War, there were about 570,000 women working in industries. That number increased to millions five years later, most of them working factory jobs. Women were nurses who healed wounded soldiers both in Canada and/or in the war front abroad. Some women joined the Royal Canadian Air Force, and others were tailors, cleaners, cooks and clerks.

 I have experienced war, and trust me when I say this… it is one of the most terrifying and excruciating experience a person can go through. Hearing the sound of gun-shots, seeing dead people on the street and having the fear of losing your family is a feeling I never want to experience again. The 1998 Civil War in Liberia has left both a negative and positive imprint on me. Negative because family members were lost, separated, and some of us had to grow up for almost 11 years without seeing our biological mothers. Negative because, my beautiful and innocent childhood was destroyed and the things I loved the most about my country was taken away from me. Negative because, it took away my beautiful Liberia, and left a poor,unstable, unhygienic and struggling Liberia, waiting to be fixed. 

Positive because, the Liberian population is becoming more literate. More knowledgeable, and more advanced in technology than before. Positive because, I can now make my beautiful Liberia, the land of Liberty better so that my unborn-children will not have to go through the same experiences again. I now know better than before. I am somewhat more educated to recognize who is my country’s out-side enemy, as well as who to make prosperous trade with in the future and who to keep close for the benefit of my beautiful Liberia… Positive because, I now know that I do not have to wait for International help, but that I can make that change myself with determination and courage of over-coming anything. At least I for a fact, along with my sisters brothers and friends now know better. For some of us abroad, we have dreams of going back home, and making extraordinary and longitudinal changes. For some of us, we want to avoid war and make love and peace instead. I hope that is the dream for all Liberians out there. I also hope one day we can also have a Remembrance Day for those we lost during the Civil War :)
