2010 is swiftly approaching, a new decade a new year. I saw this questionnaire on reflections on Mrs. Bynum’s blog and thought that I’d fill it out too. It was an odd year….more travel than ever (yay!) but my world was rocked negatively as well, like by MJ’s death (womp fucking womp 
). Anyway, here’s my answers to the questions:
1. What did you do in 2009 that you’d never done before?
I chopped my hair off and went natural 
October 2009 = my big chop (bc) and hello twa (not THAT tiny, i transitioned for 10 months) and hello to better hair products and doing my own hair.
2. Did you keep your new years’ resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
I didn’t make a resolution last year. Just said whatever happens happens….and indeed, it happened :p
3. Did anyone close to you give birth?
Yes! I am officially a godmommy this year 
My sweet chocolate drop, Denia, was born.
4. Did anyone close to you die?
Yes….I’ve grown up loving Michael Jackson, that was a hard blow. He seemed so sweet and cute ‘85 and below, then was gotdamn SEXY 86-92, I was in love. Life happened and I didn’t pay him much attention in later years, but I’ll always have my love for him from way back when. And TII movie shows he still had it! RIP boo and I hope that you are in a WAY better place than this hellhole.

13. Whose behavior made you appalled and depressed?
Ignorant people, both black and white. White’s with their racist antics when President Obama won, some just showing their ASSES.

Seriously, grow the hell up and get useful

38. Quote a song lyric that sums up your year:
this quote sums up my life quite well and has for a while: Stacie Orrico, There’s gotta be more to life
I’ve got it all, but I feel so deprived
I go up, I come down and I’m emptier inside
Tell me what is this thing that I feel like I’m missing
And why can’t I let it go
There’s gotta be more to life…
Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me
Cause the more that I’m…
Tripping out thinking there must be more to life
Well it’s life, but I’m sure… there’s gotta be more
Than wanting more
I’ve got the time and I’m wasting it slowly
Here in this moment I’m half way out the door
Onto the next thing, I’m searching for something that’s missing
I’m always waiting on something other than this
Why am I feelin’ like there’s something I missed…..
