i’m here!!!! will post a blog tomorrow :)
Jan312009i am eth I opian
hey honey[s]!
this blog was inspired by an aim convo i had recently about beautiful ethiopian women. every where i go, one common question that is get is ‘what are you’? my first instinct is to look at them crazy and say ‘i’m a human! what the hell does it look like i am?’ anyways before i get that ugly i simply say, ” i am african ” [most people have never heard of ethiopia and i rarely feel like giving history lessons to strangers] then they really get confused and say “huh? but what are you mixed with?” i’m like “HUH????!!!” I’m mixed with my mommy and daddy, that’s what! i mean…. whatinthehell? i never said i was mixed!
i’m kinda tired of the ignorance that exists. it’s really sad that education is not being nurtured in this country. instead, entertainment and all types of other distractions are created and promoted with multi-million dollar advertising campaigns. give me a break. anyways i’m not gonna get too deep into it because i could go on for days about this.
i’m over it.
this, however cheered me up. it’s an ethiopian artist and she is using r&b/rock beats and the lyrics are in amharic. her name is zeritu kebede. LOVE her. her humble nature and the way she describes what music means to her, is some of the realest shit i ever heard.
enjoy!
most of y’all probably don’t know that i speak amharic fluently. always have. ;) this is a song from her 1st album.
**i ♥ mr. president**
[i know that this is very marilyn monroe of me but...]omg can i just say, i’m ON to michelle. she didn’t fall in love with a president or a senator, or even a lawyer.
honey, she fell in love with the SWAGGER known as ‘barry’.
*melts*
this
picture is by FAR the ultimate illustration of how beautiful of a man he is. a real man honey. a soldier. a rider. and (dare i say) an intelligent & polished ‘thug’.
omg- there is nothing more sexy to me than a man who has a high IQ and a low ‘corny’. high on the i-don’t-give-a-damn-what-you-think, but low on the i-think-i’m-all-that.
mmHMM! i’m on to you michelle. you wanted a little necessary roughness in your life and i am NOT mad. u did that mama. u definitely did that.
p.s. i promise i will stay away from your man, cuz above all- i love how he respects you and the babies.

Jan282009youtube me!!!
yes, that means SUBSCRIBE! I need to reach 100 subscribers so that I can post up my first episode of ‘fAbzEn with eLbie’. the concept for this show came about as a result of my own pain.see, i was going thru some difficult times and felt myself letting my inner fabulousness wither away. unbeknownst to me, i was slowly on the way to knocking on the doors of being ‘depressed’ and just unhappy with life period. those that know me, know that i’m always positive and smiling but during this time- underneath it all- i was crying everyday.
i will be doing a how-to video on feeling wonderful and good about yourself in the midst of darkness and despair. from a female perspective that is. but of course love for self is genderless, so all my viewers will be able to relate. k????? k!
for now look at my most recent video below ~*~smOochEs~*~
Jan272009i ♥ thE.moonLight
for some reason, i’ve been feeling a lot of lunar energy lately. as opposed to solar that is. which is what i usually feel. yes, i am a sun goddess honey. i mean the sun shining outside can make me do anything it wants. i totally worship the sun. then there are those days that aren’t so bright and full of life. they are dark and when i look up all i see is blackness and one bright white light in the midst of it all. shining like it doesn’t care that the sky is so dark and black all around it. i love the moon too. i SO love it. it’s a positive energy but just more from the ‘dark’ side of life.
i am learning a lot about balance. i must say, it is very rewarding at a time when balance is the last thing that is offered to you, you know? i mean, chaos and turmoil are so much ‘fun’ these days. i’m over it. so over it.
at the end of the day, i just want to be able to make a difference. forget the bullsh*t, bells and whistles. omg, it is SO needed. i mean it is really effed up in this world. change has to come to so many different areas of [my] life and it’s a good thing this time ;)
ok now, onto my favorite thing to talk about, *deep breath* Mr. President Obama. :D
below is a song that was produce entirely from sound clips of his past speeches. the hook is crazy. please don’t hate. it’s so cute and creative. i love Obama girl. she been on him since before anybody even knew who he was. i’m sure y’all have heard of her viral hit single ‘i gotta crush on obama’ [google it]
anywho… enjoy the vid. smOochEs
