10 Facts About Me

 
 
 
 
Hello, Everyone!!!.
 
 
When I first created my blog a year ago, I introduced posts titled "Tag Tuesdays" as a way for you, my reader to get to know me on a personal level. Below are a few 10 random facts about me.
 
1. I hate bugs, it is definitely the worst time of the year for me. I do whatever I can to kill them. Even if I see a bug on TV I will freak out & start to itch.

2. I love hot sauce on everything !!!!,  I keep hot sauce in my bag, SWAG lol

3. My astrological sign is Pisces.

4. I can be pretty shy around people I do not know, however  I am easy to talk to.

5. I do not like to dance in public, it's where my shyness is at the highest. But my boyfriend is very slowly getting me to dance with him.

6. I can listen to music for hours, especially 90's and early 2000's it brings me back to the good olé times.

7. I eat salmon at least once a week for dinner *basil and garlic recipe I found online*

8. My favorite TV shows at the moment is Shameless and Power, I live for a good drama.

9. I have committed to a no heat challenge for my natural hair journey which means no curling iron or blow dryer for a year. So far it's been 3 months.
 
10. I've start a new weight loss journey and I made it my mission to drink half my body weight in water.

Curlfest 2016

 
 
 

Hello, Everyone !!!.
 

Over the weekend, my boyfriend and I went to a natural hair festival known as CurlFest hosted by the lovely ladies of the Curly Girl Collective. I was unable to attend last year so I was happy to bring my boyfriend along with me for my first time. When we arrived at Prospect Park  the line was super long but it moved with ease. Unfortunately by the time we got to the entrance , they were out of goodie bags but I was able to snag some samples from Cantu, Shea Moisture and Tropical Isle. I definitely spotted natural hair youtubers including Actually Ashly, SunkissAlba, Notorious Kia and  Maria Antoinette to name a few. The crowd was filled with natural hair men and women with great style. We left about a hour before the fun ended but we had a blast nonetheless. I will be returning back next year and I will take sure to arrive much earlier and take a lot more pictures.
