I feel like its been a minute. Let me go head and give yall some read-age.
I went to the club with the Louisville crew Thursday. It was fuckin fun as hell! I LOVE dancing. The djay was jammin. But I do feel that there are somethings I should address as far as songs and the club go... hold on.. lemme get in a comfortable position.. Ok...
1. If over half of the club is drunk, do not put on the cupid shuffle. Line dances are only good sober while people still have they rhythm. Other wise, it's a whole bunch of sweaty people bumping into each other... which is funny to watch but not funny to be in the middle of.
2. Techno is for the birds.. I believe this music was created for people who had no rhythm. You ain't gotta have it to dance to techno, plus there are no words. When techno comes on and I'm expected to dance to it.. I feel like a broke-down actor. Where's my motivation?
3. Which leads me to my next point.. Hip-Hop is powerful. It don't matter where you at or who you are. Your party goes to a.. um... crunker if you will.. level of hype if some Hip-Hop. You can't get that with Pop or Techno.. I might sound biased because hey.. I do love Hip-Hop.. but it's true. Go to a party and see..
4. Fellas... GET SOME GAME! Maybe, I'm growing up.. but I hate to be at a party and a guy just comes up behinds me.. puts his dick on my back and expects me to be ok with that and dance with him. I feel like if you wanna dance with me.. you need to introduce yourself, ask me my name and then.. ask me to dance. This one's from my experience in the club Wednesday... That club's a younger crowd. On Thursday, a guy came up to me and said, "Excuse me ma'am. On the next song would you like to dance with me?" I was like so taken aback... Someone who's actually polite in 2009?! So yes.. I danced with him. The fact that he was muscular and had a beautiful smile helped to.. hehehee...
5. Djay, it is ok to slow it down! The art of slow dancing does not exsist in clubs anymore! A slow song gives you a chance to spit game for real. Not to mention if all you play is fast songs, a nigga gets tired!
6. Djay, taking us back to the old school is almost necessary. Last night the Djay played "My perogative" then "Gin N Juice".. I was so geeked. The crowd will appreciate you much more if you throw a lil old school in there.
Ok... I fear that this is getting a lil long.. So let me end it.. But let me end with this.. BOBBY BROWN of New Edition did My Perogative FIRST! BEFORE BRITNEY! The white people in the club were so surprised to hear this nigga singing it. I'm like really?! Yall think Britney came up with that shit?? No.. It's Bobby Bitch!

Every time the beat drop...
So I just realized that this blog is turning into one about love/relationSHITS/sex.. Which is ok. But I feel like I should shake it up a little.. Well, I did talk about alter-egos so that works.
Anywho, I got my depression pill. Just took it, so I hope it works for me cause I got two tests to take today. Man, i sound psycho don't I? The thing is, the are lots of symptoms to depression.. Way more than just being depressed. Makes you sleepy, lathargic.. blah blah.. Yall kno I love sleep... And the depression makes me REAL sleepy like all the time.. so the med that I'm on kinda balances things out. It doesn't make me like energetic or nothing, just makes me normal. I felt I needed to explain.. hope yall understand.
So, I'm on pandora... [pandora.com] and its playing Single Ladies.. Now yall already know I love me some Beyonce.. but they play the hell outta her songs. I never thought I'd be tired of it! And I can't fast-forward just because of the principle of it all. Ugh.
Well, I have two Bio tests today. Teachers be trippin, I kno. Pray for me.
Oh, my title is a Monica song.. Is it just me or do all Atlanta artist's songs sound alike?

I don't have a plan B. Alternatively Titled: The connection (or lack there of) between love and sex.
*Listening to Lauryn Hill's "Ex-Factor" I love Lauryn. Her songs always pull at my heart strings and make me think about shit. She's one of the rare singers that actually sing about things that are personal to her. I wish there were more Lauryn's and Mary's.. I need music to cry to.
Anywho, I credit the title of this entry to Dr. Cosby the pastor of Louisville's St. Stephen Church. His sermon was so great. It was touching. It was basically about prayer. He used it from the perspective of being bilingual. Speaking the language of your culture and speaking the language of prayer. Wonderful. I shed a couple of tears. So touching.
So today church, I'll be speaking about love and realtionships. This will probably be like a four part ummm... series if you will.. Number one will be the connection (or lack of) between sex and love, Numbers two, three and four will be Carrie's keys to a successful relationship... I might be exaggerating so don't be disappointed if it turns out to be 2 parts.
Anywho, Let me preface this by saying I don't think I've ever been in love. Since I'm not sure about it, lets just say I haven't. I loved Arielle, but I was 14. So.. puppy-love if you will. I kno I just fucked up my credibility but you here now so you might as well finish reading. I'm simply speaking from what I see in my friend's (and at times my) situations.
If I had to define love, I'd say that it was a very strong positive feeling about someone, the willingless to invest yourself whole-heartedly to this person, the willingless to let them hurt you, and the willingless to sarifice.
If I had to define sex, I'd say it's 1 person using another person to bust a nut.
Now do you see the connection? Cause I sure don't!
I think in a perfect world sex would be the physical way in which we express our love to the object of our affection but this world ain't perfect! Plenty of people are sexing but not many are LOVING. First of all as the poem says (check out my first entry) you can't love with your dick. Now, I've never gotten dicked down (19-year-old virgin entry on another day) but I've had some good sex with some women... No matter how good it was, I never thought to myself "This girl's pussy is so good, I'm falling in love with her." LOL!! see, i couldn't even keep a straight face when I was giving an example. Nor have a been sexing someone and said to myself "I'mma give it to 'em so good, they gonna love me!" It just doesn't work like that...
But let me tell you what has happened.
I've seen the way someone talks to their mother and thought that I could love 'em. I have fallen in love with a smile. I was with a guy once and we were watching Click, I cried like a baby and he was crying to. I could see myself loving that. I've really dug the way someone squeezes my hand when I'm walking away. Eye contact, a kiss on the forehead, or a mix CD full of love songs. That's love shit. Yall know what made Michelle fall in love with Barack? The way he interacted with the people. She fell in love with him when he was working in the Chi and giving a speech to people who needed him. I've been told that I was love-able because of the way children responded to me.
It's all about the PERSON you are. Realness, thats what makes me fall in love, and thats what has made people fall in love with me. I love kids and they love me. They bad as hell but I guess i'm pretty patient with 'em. Because all they are is a little me. They need guidance and understanding. They need to be talked to. That's who Carrie is. At the end of the day, thats what made someone see themselves loving me.. Not my bomb ass bedroom skills ;)
I think if there's a separation between the two, then it'd be eaiser to make a better connection. But the love has to come FIRST. I got to fall in love with you before I can make love to you. I've had sex and looked down and be like 'wow, i really dig this mofo' and the sex is more passionate when the love is a factor so I can see that connection but love and sex don't happen simultaneously. That's where I think people get confused.
