you: ok ...
your mama: you better get that from her
meh: he will
your mama: thanks but i was talking to my son
meh: k. but i saw it first so i commented first

my messages.
your mama: I don't know why the attitude with me. All I said to TONY was you better get that from her. So, why do you feel the need to come at me with the smart aleck comments? I have nothing against you so I really don't know why you feel the need to act that way. Best of luck to you in whatever you do. Tony got into school...something you never thought he would do since you said he would never amount to anything. He will amount to something. He is already much more than some.
meh:okay.. ms. tammy


you need to calm down just for a second. tony told me he told you when i said that ,but you probably dont knw that i apologized a million gazilion times for it. i never meant it i guess it was juhst such a stressfull day aka my prom! you knw. but i knw that still doesnt excuse that. but i always knew he would/will do great things in his life. [rele wouldnt have liked him if i thought other wise]

&&& about the attitude on the wall post. juhst seemed like you were acting like i wanted to keep it or something. haha. i remember when he gave it to me i was juhst playing about wantinng it... well side tracking . he will get it back. i moved so i will have to put it in cory's mailbox or tell him where my new place is. but its in a safe place.. in my jewelry box. no worries. &&no hard feeling.

#fear

today on my way to work...moe [stepdad] tried to get my mama to drive on the interstate ..and she was so afraid. i began to think of how she never drives on the interstate nor on jefferson street bridge. when i was little she told me she saw someone jump off the jeffbridge&&that triggerd her fear.

i am very afraid of heights and escalators...they are related fears. my fear of heights keeps me from wanting to see myself "escalate" higher and higher.

i have been thinking about how ppl let fears control them and their lives.
one is never in full control of themselves if they have fears that pick apart things they will never do in life.

i really want to overcome my fear. but i knw it will be a while.. i really want to though
i do think that it is taking over my life.
like ppl with OCD. lol. well not funny.

fashion scrapbooking

i put this on my bucketlist
&&now im finally getting to it. 
i have tons of looks that were already on my 
wall in my old room. 
i found a scrapbook at walmart for $8. 
i was thinking of also doing the "look for less" thing
they do in mags.
where there is an expensive celeb style they put together for under $100. i would love to do that. 
comment with fashion ideas.

last day!

attention all readers:

today is my LAST day working for 

Chuck E Cheese Entertainment!!

thank you jesus for the job,

&&for my new one so i could leave this place. 

yes!!

i work 12:15-5:15.

to end this year of work.

:D ekkkk. so happy 

day 5. letter to dreams.

"sweet dream or beautiful nightmare" -Bee

well dreams,

    i consider you the same as my wishes. things I hope to hppn in my life. i hope you come true for me. you are my bucketlist, my future, my accomplishments, and all that i will be known for. you are my plans for my life, the stories I will tell my children and hope will come true.
     you are also the movies of my mind that i watch at night. the ones that make me cry or scream or laugh about in the morning. you are what I tell my friends about at breakfast or try to remember as i tell my family at dinner.
    i really wish more ppl dreamd. i heard someone on time in my life from life or a movie say their life was too terrible to waste time dreaming. i disagree. dreamers have all different types of lives and circumstances but still find the time because it lifts their spirits or really makes ppl believe they have something to live for. their dreams. which will come true. <33 :)

dueces,

B

#human trafficking

at church sunday a man came to speak about human trafficking&a girl that was abused since she was 5 years old. ..i had read about it in a SEVENTEEN mag some months ago; but this stirrd my interest. it hurt me so much to hear of all the terrible things done for sick ppl. this is S L A V E R Y.
Human trafficking:
         the illegal trade in human beings for the purposes of commercial sexual exploitation or forced labor: a modern-day form of slavery...fastest growing criminal industry in the world, tied with the illegal arms industry as the second largest, after the drug-trade.

The total annual revenue for trafficking in persons is estimated to be between USD$5 billion and $9 billion.

MEN CAN BE TRAFFICKED ALSO.

         trafficked for unskilled work, which globally generates $31billion. forms of forced labor can include domestic servitude; agricultural labor; sweatshop factory labor; janitorial, food service and other service industry labor; and begging.

MOST COMMON IS SEX TRAFFICKING.

          found in dire circumstances and easily targeted by traffickers. Individuals, circumstances, and situations vulnerable to traffickers include homeless individuals, runaway teens, displaced homemakers, refugees, and drug addicts. While it may seem like trafficked people are the most vulnerable and powerless minorities in a region, victims are consistently exploited from any ethnic and social background.

Traffickers, also known as pimps or madams, exploit vulnerabilities and lack of opportunities, while offering promises of marriage, employment, education, and/or an overall better life. However, in the end, traffickers force the victims to become prostitutes or work in the sex industry. Various work in the sex industry includes prostitution, dancing in strip clubs, performing in pornographic films and pornography, and other forms of involuntary servitude.

#tu tu

tu tu

skirt made of at least 80% tulle.

usually worn for ballerinas; well

they once were.

now 1000000 black girls everyday or wearing these

with tennis shoes [forces,chucks,jordans] to look

what they think is CUTE.

maybe i havent been told about this new style.

i dont understand

i remember i first saw that it was a style at

Maplewood Graduation last May.

like 5 girls were together wearing green tutus

a spray painted tee with green words

and some spray painted forces with green on them.

today really made me think while i was at work today

a little girl had a huge tiedye colored tutu

with some j's ...whatever happend

to the bbys with prettyfull dress and lacey socks. ..

guess thats over.

day 4. letter to my brothers.

malik,

i love you so much. you are always telling jokes and burning making the house so funn to be in. i always miss you when you go away on a trip or something. you're 14 now&i really see you as a young man &am proud of all the accomplishments you have made. i know you will do great things in your life and i cant wait to see them all take place. love you lots.

zontre,

you and i argue more than anyone else in the house, because you truly have all the same qualities that i do& most of them tend to clash with the other ones. i know you will also do great things in your life. i will also try to deal with you more, lol. without the arguing and fighting. love you.

day 3. letter to my parents.

mother: vickie elaine stevenson-sparks aka mama
father: sean anthony city aka daddy
step-father: maurise alphonso sparks aka moe

p a r e n t s

1. man and woman that had sex to produce you

2. man&woman that raise you&provide for you

3. two people you cannot stand but have

to deal with, &love without completely knowing why.

dear mama,

    you do so many things that do not completely understand, but i do love you. we never really get to have heart to heart talks because you always have something more important to occupy your time than me. i know that you do love me. juhst wish we did more mother daughter things. i know you will miss me when i leave for college&im going to miss you so much also. Moe says you are the only bestfriend i need or the only one i have something like that, because you do things for me that no one else will . i know our relationship will grow more and more as i mature and as you let me and know that i am maturing. you have been there for me and my brothers for so long without anyone else, and did everything on your own for so long, i am so proud to have you as a mom. ilysomuch. :)

dear daddy [funny how the little girl in me still calls you daddy, although the only part of the parent

definition you fit under is having sex with mama],

     actually in your letter i am not going to completely bash you, because for about 9 years of my life, you were there for me. &you and mama cared about my wellbeing enough not to really let me in on the disfunctional-ness of yuur relationship. i always loved being with you and hanging out. i loved going to detroit to visit your side of the family [that my mama absolutely hated]. but you pretty much disappeared i mean like at least two years after you left you sent us things, called, and came to visit. but then after that you completed left. YOU JUST SENT YOUR FIRST CHILDSUPPORT PAYMENT THIS WEEK. pathetic. my mother really doesnt worry about it like she should because she says its in god's hands and he provides for us. not you. i really dnt understand that about you. like somewhere in your head and/or heart you should think hey i have children that need clothes, food, and shelter. what if my mother wasnt doing well? and we couldnt rely on her? what then. you dnt care couldnt be caring. ...jerk. i really dnt care tho. some ppl with deadbeat dads spend their lives crying and worrying about it. i dnt have the time. dont call us, when we're rich b****. lmao.

moe [i never call you pop, stepdad, or anything like that, juhst weird i guess],

   you are cool, for like 80% of the time, but there is a 20% when your controlling, overprotective, and juhst plain crazy. i will never understand that 20% but its cool .glad to have you around and thanks for all the help you have given us. my mother really loves you, and i am amazed you have dealth with us for these 4 years.

day 2. letter to crush.

crushes. boys i have liked that havent like me back. :(

but i will survive! lol.

haha russell gramberry,

for a good laugh ima start with you.

when i like you, you still had hair but was confused on what to do with it

your funny and have the cutest smille.

i like you..but that was it a LIKE nothing serious.

i still love you [as a friend] to this day. &am okay to keep it

that way.

john wallace,

ima back track&go to you.

i had a crush on you since 4th grade in mscole class.

all the way to middle school.

even during my boyfriendship with robert wade.

you have the prettiest smile&eyes. that made me melt. teehee.

i almost cried when you got married to another girl under the jungle gym.

that's prolly why i pushed her off the swing.

okay, back to high school&

daniel james garrett,

boy i have liked you for too long.

make myself tired thinking of it.

you like white chicks.

we all have figured this out.

but why do you have to be sooo cute? &dress so well?

so many times i gave up, and decided to juhst be okay with being friends

but you would do something to confuse me.

guess it was juhst plain flirting without any intent;

i remember in mshandy's creative writing class

 we always sat together in class&in the computer lab

mshandy even askd if we had something, but outside i said NO. inside saying I WISH!

lol. looking back, man i wanted you bad.

hhaha. goodtimes.

sarah w. would always joke to me, about "yo man" haha

man..daniel james garrett. i could go on and on. revealing the inner secrets of

my heart, but my hands cannot even type it all. followers cannot even read it all.

my heart cannot even pour it all.

to end it all. i have decided that being your friend that you can come to

is better than not having you in my life at all. so glad i met you.

ilyboy. :)

justin claybrooks,
yeah. you boy.
i had a crush on your swag&personality.
but your such a womanizer. i need it would be nothing but a crush.
&the fact. you cant stand me.
but still had a crush on your pretty eyes. &how you could make a laugh
all the time from the crazy things you did.
i am really gonna miss sitting by you in the cafeteria in the morning
laughing with everyone from how crazy you are.
you cute.. all that. haha.
yuur head finna get so big.
but you need learn how to treat a lady.

side note: problem with cute boys they think they dnt have to be as
polite as ugly ones to get chicks.
they really dont but still try to be.

okay back to you. love you boy.

ATTN ALL OTHER BOYS:

if you name was not listed about i really did not like you that much. juhst thought you were cute.

or you had someother problem. or on a better note.

dueces.

day 1. letter to yuur bestie.

im starting these letters. [inspired by netta, sandi, &&shelby]

bestfriend,

wish i knw who you were or better yet wish we found each other. someone to share secrets with, have insiders, and wear bff necklaces from Claire's with. i never really had a bestfriend. the closest i got was in kindergarten, Natasha. i loved kindergarten because no one discriminated; we were all the same. even the same color. Natasha was white, but i rele ddnt knw and/or care. elementary school you were no where to be found. then in middle school i had a little clique with Lakeia and Mariah. [funny like im saying names as if you knw.] but they were already bestfriends although i knew them since elementary. then that group grew to adding Tyresha and Latisha; who were also already attached. sooo....it was like i was stuck btwn to groups of bff's. umm. middle school you were no where to be found. in high school, looking for friends, acceptance, all that jazz. i became friends with a posse' [lmao] DO6 &hated for it. but like always they were already best of friends. &;even when one was made at one they still had 3 more girls to talk to about it. so i can say; high school you were really no where to be found.  but i did find some wonderful friends [you knw who you are] that i could ask for. they are the closest i have been to besties and i will always cherish our friendship . ilyall. :)

but luckily in college in the process of learning even more about myself. .. i will find you. &you will be a handsome young man with a great career in the future [marriage material] heyy. he's gotta be my bestfriend too. :)
