About My Silence in the Blogging World

Image
I don't like writing about things that people don't care about hearing. I like writing about matters that concern people. That's not to say that I will only write on deep topics. My point is that someone must care to read my opinions whether it's about my belief in Christ, politics, fashion, music, art or anything. So if there is something you'd like to know my opinion on leave a comment anywhere on here and I'll see and respond.  This also doesn't mean that I'm dependent on an audience to write. My own thoughts don't interest me enough to think someone else would take interest in it so I haven't written anything. I've already talked myself out of quite a few blogs. Tempress

I Don't Believe In Love...

Image
...at first site. I don't believe in love at first site. I do, however, believe in lust/attraction at first site. Love is more than attraction and short-lived hyped feelings. Love is knowing, accepting, commitment and selfless unlike lust which is ignorant,  selfish and fleeting. What people think of when they say love at first site is mostly attraction. Then a couple of  years, months, days later they want to leave because the feeling (the initial attraction) isn't there anymore. The adrenaline is gone and so you want to leave with it to the next person who makes you feel that way. So no I don't believe in love at first site. Attraction draws people to each other and then we learn about each other. From this we have two choices friendship or acquaintance. If you sided with the former you have the choice of either staying at the friend level or building on that friendship to love. The world's definition of love is diluted and corrupt. What's portrayed i...

Arizona's Immigration Law

Image
What the celebrities have to say A-list actresses Rosario Dawson, Jessica Alba, and Eva Longoria joined forces to fight Arizona’s Immigration Law in a new public service announcement recorded for United We Win campaign. In the PSA Langoria Parker says, “I haven’t made it a secret that I’m strongly opposed to the Arizona law and I’ve been pretty vocal about it. It’s unfortunate that this immigration issue has been on the national agenda for the past three administrations.” The Desperate Housewife goes on to comment about her fear of discrimination saying: “I think the biggest misconception is that everybody who is dark or of colour is from somewhere else. I’m ninth-generation American. I’m more American than a lot of my Anglo friends. If my father got pulled over because of the colour of his skin, I could guarantee you I would be outraged. The PSA will air on September 10th and hopes it will send people to vote when Arizona’s general election is held on November 2nd. “We’re...

The A-List Rappers (in my mind)

Image
The A List (in my mind) inspired by Jin's song A-List I decided to make my own A-List focusing on Christian rappers. Jin Angels Asian connection: Jin is Chinese, born in Miami and based out of New York.  Of all the MC’s on this list, Jin’s Asian connection is the strongest.  He’s made numerous tracks that are Asian and Chinese-related as well as recorded several albums in Cantonese.  He is currently based out of Hong Kong. Jin is the single most well-known, written-about, revered, disrespected, loved and hated Asian American rapper ever.  It’s hard to believe he’s been out in the scene since 2001 – it only seems like yesterday you could catch him Freestyle Friday Battle.  Before Jin, most people had never seen an Asian rap before (myself included).  Jin changed the game as the first and only Asian American rapper to break into the mainstream.  For better or worse, he’s still the only Asian the average rap fan can name. I think it’...

Toy Story 3 Review

Image
Adam Levine : "Pixar wins... Hands down the most soulful and refreshingly innovative way to tell a story. Regular films should be ashamed of themselves." I have to agree with Adam, that movie was awesome. It surpassed the 2nd Toy Story and matched the love of the original film. It drew me in with a wonderful plot and took me back to my childhood. I laughed as I did when I was a child. I would've cried had I not been in the midst of people at the theater. (I'm working on not crying in front of people lol)  Traphik:  "I didn't cry lol"    In the theaters I was surrounded by adults, I only saw one kid. Although this film was made for kids - scratch that! I think this was made to be a good, wholesome and entertaining film for all. I believe that's where this movie went right. When people in the film industry belittle children's imagination, intelligence and innocence they create one timers. Something appealing for the moment. But when film mak...
