Summer in DC has so far been a rainy one. The constant rain kind of symbolizes the way I feel these days. My tears are the rain and the lightning are the bolts of pain whenever I reality sets in that my mother is gone. Today is June 23rd and I feel like June 8th [...]

My blog began as just something for me to do in my free time. I encouraged my friends to rush to their computers and check out my random blurbs. They did. I know that everyone has a blog, but I just wanted to send a special thanks to Faruq and my girl Brittany for showing [...]
