4th of July 2005

I have to say this has been the greatest July 4th weekend I've ever had...I don't think I could've done it any better or with any better set of friends in any other city...let's start from the beginning...

Friday-nothing really special, I went to Immuno lab for 4 hours!!! What one class is that long, madness...then I went to work til 11:30, needless to say I was beat.

Saturday- now the fun begins, the roomies and I went to see Live 8 and there were so many people and we with our ignorant selves skipped into the park and made our way to the front so we got a perfect view-sorry to whoever we pissed off LOL, nah not really...then I get a call from my girl Jailayh who tells me she put me on the guest list for the All White 4th of July party at the 40/40 club!!! {Many of you know Jailayh as the leading lady in Beanie Man's King of the Dance Hall video, and 40/40 is Jay Z's nite club in NYC} I wasn't even sure if I was goin home but now I was definitely sure!! I called Rhonda up and we all went out to Brooklyn. Then my boy Hakim who played at Syracuse U. called me and cussed me out for not congratulating him, HE GOT DRAFTED TO THE NBA!!! He's goin the Grizzlies!! I was too happy for him and he was in NY for the weekend so we met up with him and an old "friend" of mine at Justin's for the celebration dinner and then partied at the Supper Club in Uptown...didn't get in til 6 in the morning {so of course you know I spent the nite in Harlem...lol I was not takin no train to Brooklyn by then}

Sunday-Well we all got up around 12 and my brother, sister-in-law, and niece Kelsey came in to town so I headed back to Brooklyn to see them and she is SOOOOO CUTE!!! I'll get a pic of her up here soon she'll be 2 in two weeks :-). My hair was all over the place and I had to get that under control for the 40/40 Club just in case Jay was gonna be there ;-)...Anyway we all looked too cute but we looked like a lil gang it was about 8 of us that went together and everybody got along and nobody was really too tacky either. It's a really nice laid back lounge and the party was good, except for the 33 year old who wouldn't leave me alone...but anyway...Jay Z didn't come :-( but Fabolous, Dame Dash, and Fonzworth Bentley was there. They tell me Eva was there, but I ain't see her...Apparently the party was to raise money for MS and that's why it was all white, so we learned a lil and partied alot!!!lol anyway, we left there around 2:30 and headed to this reggae spot not too far from the China Club called Esquire and since most of us were Jamaican or Trini, we ripped the place from the minute we walked in to the minute we limped out...lol...great nite-got back to Jailayh's around 5:30.

Monday-So Ma threw a royal fit because I wasn't around all weekend, but then she got over it and we got a chance to talk and get some things out there {why is it that your mom loves the one man that has actually broken your heart??? You love him too, but you know what you've been through so you try to forget him and here she comes askin about him :-(} I went to see my god-father in the hospital who was havin an endoscopy to find out where his internal bleeding was coming from and of course he had nothing but jokes...Anyway, I chilled with my brothers for most of the day and my dad toward the end, I didn't really wanna go but my ex and some of my old friends gave me the guilt trip and made me go see the fire works over the Hudson. It was actually fun chillin with them again, I miss Brooklyn...I was supposed to come back to Philly today but of course that ain't happen. {Then my grandmother gets mad at me because 3 females should not be out with 10 guys late at nite, but most of friends are guys, so I ignored her lol}

Tuesday- Got up with a serious headache and went to see my god-father who had a slight laceration of the stomach lining and had the surgery today, it was a lil nerve-rackin...Had to get this hair under control so I went to see Hazel, my crazy Jamaican hairdresser and allowed her to bless these roots, by the time I got out I heard my god-father was out of surgery and doing fine and my father would be with him. So all was well and now I'm back in Philly tryin to get back into the swing of work again b4 I fall behind...
Hope yall enjoyed my weekend with me here and yourselves wherever you were...Be Blessed!
