Kofi Annan- A great person

ok so my person of the week and very deservedly is Kofi Annan.
No he is not my person of the week because he is my fellow country man(shout out to Ghana lol), or because he won the Nobel peace prize in 2001, or that he served for 10 yrs as the secretary general of the UN but rather because of his work to bring peace in Kenya.
Kofi Annan once said “In their greatest hour of need, the world failed the people of Rwanda.” but in Kenya's greatest hour of need he did not fail them preventing a possibility of the recurrence of the killings that happened in Rwanda. One article called his contributions as chief mediator magic. You may or may not have heard about the situation in kenya for the past 2 months, over rigged elections between president Mwai Kibaki and opposition party leader Raila Odinga. Before Kofi Annan other dignitaries tried to resolve the issue including current president of Ghana and president of the African Union, president Museveni of Uganda to no avail. What they were not able to Kofi Annan has done. At least for now a peace deal has been reached between the two parties for president Kibaki to retain his position and Odinga to become prime minister. positions in cabinet will be divided between the two parties etc. I could go on about the issues but i am very happy about this deal because over 1500 people died over the debacle and thousands of Kenyans are displaced as a result. For now i am glad its over we definitely have a long way to go but we have moved forward. I thank Kofi Annan For his hard work and not giving up when talks were stalling or it seemed the was no hope for peace. I also thank him for continuing to promote peace even though he is not secretary general any more and is therefore not required to deal with these kind of problems. lastly thanks to the president of Tanzania and chairman of the African Union Jakaya kikwete, i have read he played a key role during the last days b4 the deal.

things fall apart

damn its been a crazy week and i feel like everything around me is falling apart. I dont know what to do, no matter how hard i try i just cant keep it all together. I fix one problem to encounter another. From school , family, financially, social activities i mean almost every facet of my life. I dont know what to do but i guess i should count my self luckY Bcuz some people definately have it worse. I'm so tired i need a break i wish i was in a nice and warm place right now just playing in the water how great would that be. At the end of the day though it is what is and all i can do is keep trying. Well i just cant wait for some of this hell to be over 2 months till graduation. on a brighter note if you could be anywhere right now where would it be. At times like this the best thing to do is to just close your eyes and imagine that you're somewhere else and listen to music.

Although there are a lot of places i would like to visit. Right now if i had to go anywhere in the states i would go to Miami i know thats so cliche but really it's a fun hot place that i have not been to so why not. Outside this country i would want to go to my homeland Ghana why because i miss my brother, extended family, old freinds,culture, nice people,great weather, beaches, greaat food etc etc.
so where would you go ? hopefully someone will answer lol

James Mcavoy

ok so im tryiing to do this new thing where ill do a person of the week might be more than one or not at all depends but ill just call it that.

so ill like to start off with James Mcavoy i think hes a great actor. I never realized who he was till i saw Atonement. Then i realized he was the same guy in becoming Jane, Pride and prejudice and the last king of scotland although he looked really difft. I love his work and hes a great actor and i looooooooooove all those movies.

Usher - Love in this Club ft Young Jeezy w/ the Lyrics

so i came along this track on vibe.com

this is supposed to be one of ushers new tracks on his upcoming album that he is working on.

It was produced by Polow da Don and he actually leaked the track hmm how sad but thats a whole other topic.

I like it not bad im curious to see how his new album will sound hope its a banger. The song recieved good feedback though so thats good.
Any Comments on the song???

Just Like You

i havent done my music posts in a while but between yesterday ive been bumping the hell out of the latest Keyshia Cole album once again.

I never used to like Keyshia Cole b4, sure i thought she was talented but a bit whinny and that turned me off. I liked her songs but a couple of seconds into it and it would be just too much. Most of my friends disagree with this but hey its my opinion. I was'nt crazy about her first album when a lot of people were crazy about it.

However i love her new album. Trully its collectively one of the better albums ive heard in a while, you could really listen to it from A-Z. She kinda toned it down a bit and still sung her heart out and you could really feel it. I actually think the first single (Let It Go) is one of the weakest tracks on the album(not saying it was a weak track in itself i like the song) but it was definately the most commercial one i loved that that lil kim verse though(kick him to the curb like david beckham).

Anywhoo after taking a break from the Album "Just like you" for a while i started listening to it yest and im just loving it alll over again.

my fav tracks are Heaven sent( i have added this to my imeem playlist above), fallin out, work it out , I remember. Just nice R&B Tunez that any female can relate to. I really like the difft things she sings about on the album. The other songs i nice as well.

If you have'nt already get the album and support a sista. Its old but its neva too late to catch up.

What is love?

What is love?

Better yet who is Love?

to me love is friendship, loyalty, someone who sees the best in you and encourages you to be exactly that, someone who accepts you for all your shortcomings and appreciates you for all that you are, someone you can always depend on,someone you will still worry about even when you are in your lowest of lows, the thought or sight of them brings a smile to your face, and someone who will do almost anything to see that same smile on your face.

to me love is not merely a feeling or actions but all the ppl that God picked to be in my life forever thru blood, by choice whether thier family , freinds, or my special someone. Whether i know them now or i will in the future. I hope i have the patience to deal with you everyday and the strength to always give you nothing short of what you deserve, and the sense to realize your importance each and every day , from dusk till dawn, down to each millisecond.

To me this is what real love is not that anyone is going to be this perfect but what is important, is the fact that they will work to be that perfect for YOU because they know your worth.

today (FEB 16) i say happy valentines day to all the ppl i feel this way and will feel this way about because valentines day is not just on february 14th but it is everyday because YOU are love and what we have is true and is for eternity.

thank you for being you because you are love, MY love my very very own you may not be perfect but your love is.

Is it me ?

oh man i have'nt posted here in so long.
ive been a little busy and truthfully i havent been inspired.
i decided to post something today
it has trully been an interesting week wow. for some reason im feeling kinda down right now.
For reasons i will choose to not talk about. I heard this song(suffocate-jay holiday on the right) a while back i always thought it was cool but i wasnt crazy about it for some reason lately ive been really feeling it. In the course of writing this ive realized one of my problems i am suffocating

Basically there are certain things i would like to but when i have the opportunity i suffocate it because i feel its not the right opportunity and or time. Lately im feeling like i will suffocate one day as a result. I really want this to change but i really havent come upon an opportunity worth taking or have i?, maybe im too picky or maybe im right who knows. Anyhow im feeling real weird and confused now hope i figure all this stuff out. Yest someone told me i need to take more risks and this has got me thinking. However i will analyze this tomm im feeling too tired. I need to sleep but some part of me is telling me stay up. I think i will end here though for tonight tbc tomm. I'm too out of it
enjoy the song : )

update: i didnt get time to finish my.. today but most likely tomm ill probably rewrite the whole thing.

lee kim

so i came across this pic on bossip and i was just wondering when the hell did lil kim or should i say lee Kim turn into an Asian woman

Insecurity is a bi... or maybe its hollywood. If she doesnt love herself as she is how can others love her?
