It's not red;it's crimson glow
It's been a long time ,but i haven't abandoned my precious blog. Work and school have me in a straight jacket right now, so futile recreation is a thing of the past.
The show presented above depicted teenage life so candidly, but gotten no recognition.

To excercise, or not to exercise
While feeding into my new blog addiction, the voice of reason is telling me to exercise the 340-something calories I've consumed. I with no shame admit to falling victim to the obesity epidemic.Weighing in at over 300 hundred pounds, I was miserable and on the verge of death, so I decided to exercise and eat healthy; as a
result, weight decreased and self-esteem increased. Now I'm 87 pounds lighter, move with the speed of a jaguar( just over exaggerating),and have my eyes on a guy that makes rainbows when he smile. Poor dietary habits are common in the African American community and being from the rural south I witness to loved ones dying from stroke, diabetes, etc.Except for my 93 years young grandmother. African Americans must
be educated on healthy living; especially those living in marginalized communities. food stamps does not promote heathy eatting. Gotta go burn these calories.

We are dying and no one is talking about it
As i stated on my first post tittled Adventures into life, social issues was just one of the items I addressed. As a black female in my twenties, HIV/AIDS accounts for a major fraction of black women between the ages of 25 and 34 dying and living with the disease. The number of African American female casuelties infuriates me. I have more questions than complaints like who should we balme?, how come no one is talking and when will the abuse and oppression end for us. From being stripped of our dignity while standing on auctionig blocks to being objectified on rap videos;its a never ending grief from a culture and society that celebrates misogyny.
