I'm looking for INSPIRATION...for the magazine and the photoshoot. The flyer I made encompasses the way I want the mag to look. These are a few examples of things that inspired the theme and the plan of execution.
Maya's Kala album art.
Alex Wek and her fabulous dark skin and African Features (I need more girls like this).
Dashikis and Kente...And I want all the dark skinned little girls of the world to grow up thinking that they're beautiful.
I had one more pic, but the comp is jacked up I'll upload it latro.

Uhuru
So I've been neglecting this blog like nobody's business, but today is a great day to update.
1st of all...I'm single and it's Summer. 2 innocent aspects of my life that when combined can be very dangerous. 2nd...I have eczema on a few parts of my body and it's making me angry. These past 4 weeks have been very interesting. Besides breaking up w/ Ballkid, I've been trying to get my mind right. I took a trip to Columbus to see Angelo and Will. I came out to Will officially, which was a little less climactic than I thought it would be. He already knew. So...I'm officially happy with things b/c that weight of stress has been taken off my shoulders. The rest of that weekend was cool. I got a chance to talk business with Will's mom and dad. They're trying to figure out a way for me to work for their business. I may be blogging for them or something. The conversation was so deep. I talked about some of my goals and how I don't want to work for anyone but myself. I'm really starting to see how this could be possible.
Uhuru Drama has been plaguing me. I missed my interview...It's a long story, but just know that it wasn't totally my fault. So I lost a little bit of the steam I had going in regards to working on the magazine, but my recent move back to Kent has helped put me back on track. I don't have things like photoshop at my mom's crib.
WE ALSO REALLY REALLY NEED A WEB DESIGNER!
i'M TRYING TO BECOME ONE OF THOSE, MYSELF. I just need some practice.
That's all for now. Luv y'all!
