Father's Day

Got the BEST father's day card ever for my daddy!!

"Dad, 
Because of you
I know what
a good man looks like
and what a good 
father does--
he walks tall,
stands firm,
and loves unconditionally.
Just like you've 
always done.
No matter who else
might come along,
in many ways
you'll always be
the most important guy
in my life."

perfect. my daddy truly is my best friend. i am beyond blessed to have him in my life. greatest man ive ever known.

so ive been MIA the last week or so. i randomly decided to take a mini vacation to virginia . it seemed like all of my friends were having such a great time together and i was sick of reading their tweets about how much fun they were having without me! lol

all in all it was a great few days. i got here on wednesday and im leaving today. in fact im in the airport right now. i got to spend time with my linesisters from wednesday to friday. had a few drinks. acted a little crazy lol. then on friday night i went to spent the weekend with my hunny. hes down here training for his new job. im so proud of him like...hes a legit grown up now LOL! we had such a good time. i really think this could turn into something good despite all of the crazy shit weve been through the past 2 years.

im finally learning to let go of the past and embrace my future. its wonderful.

Student Doctor Ish.

i think im addicted to student doctor net O_o

it sucks because the site is really informative...yet really discouraging at the same time. i feel like all of the overachievers and brainiacs in the world gather there to toot their own horns:

"i have a 4.0 cumulative GPA, a 3.9 science GPA, a bazillion hours of community service, 5 publications, and a perfect score on the MCAT...OMG i dont think ill get into ANY med school!!! what do you guys think???"

-______- Jazmyn thinks you should shut the fuck up.

Natural Talk.

So lately Ive been contemplating "going natural."


While researching the topic (mainly going to a billion natural hair blogs) I noticed that most women go natural because their relaxed hair is damaged and unhealthy. Thats not the case for me at all. In fact I had short thin-ish ( i wasnt bald though!) hair for my entire life until I got a relaxer at age 12. Is it weird that the relaxer actually did my hair a world of good?? It grew a ton and actually got thicker. Right now I only get perms 2-3 times a year and I rarely put heat to it. People bash relaxed girls but Im pretty sure my hair is healthier than a lot of natural girls out there. 


Despite my hair already being healthy, Ive been admiring some ladies with BEAUTIFUL curls lately. Its only human that I start imagining what some of these styles would look like on myself. Ive learned that going natural is all a big swindle really. A lot of girls walking around with pretty curls dont really have curly hair. They just know which products and techniques to use in order to TRICK their hair into thinking its curly. Hmmmm. Could I trick my hair??


These are all just thoughts at the moment...I just got a relaxer on saturday so if I do decide to do the natural thing I will be waiting a long time lol. 


Do I have any transitioning natural readers??

A Love That Lasts.




Herbert and Zelmyra Fisher have an extraordinary story to tell.  They’ve been married for 86 years. Together, they endured the Great Depression, World War II, the Korean War, Cuban Missile Crisis and Vietnam, they have seen the impact of the Civil Rights Movement,watched man land on the moon, the dropping of the atomic bomb, lived through the terms of 15 presidents and still live to tell about it.  But there are many centenarians for whom the same holds true so what makes Herbert and Zelmyra so extraordinary?  Throughout everything, they have remained married.
Married on May 13, 1924, 105-year old Herbert, and 103-year-old Zelmyra do not pretend to know any secrets to a lasting marriage.  They have been married longer than any known living couple, had five children and have watched countless grandchildren and great-grandchildren come into the world.  They are a sweet, aging pair that will tell you truthfully that they were married because Zelmyra “did not give [Herbert] any trouble” and Herbert “was not much to look at… [but] he was quiet and kind.”  After 86 years, they remain in the home where they raised their five children, sleep in different bedrooms and love each other all the same.  They hold the world record for length of marriage for two living persons.  Is your union built to last the test of time?
