24th Bday
so even though this wasn't at all how i wanted to spend my bday. i realized that celebrating it in general ended up making me happy. and even though i was really down about not being in Michigan for my bday, kiki did awesome with getting all my fav foods.

1 Year Anniversary
even though we were pretty close before this day. todays officially our 1 year anniversary. man, i honestly can't type what i was thinking on this exact day. (another reason i want to be more consistent in the blogging.) but i do want to thank God so much for sending me someone thats literally perfect for me. my bf is truly so special to me. He deals and accepts all parts of me and still thinks i'm more beautiful than Beyonce lol. idk what more a girl can ask for tbh. i really think he's perfect. into God, smart, motivational, positive, family orientated, my sibs, fam, and friends like him, always there for me, can talk to him about literally anything, always trying to understand me even if its just him reading my face. i could go on and on, but i'll stop here before i get too sappy lol.
dinner was beautiful: my dress came in time, i actually liked my makeup, we had amazing seats (the restaurant was on the top floor and had a view where it spun around so you can see all of downtown atlanta.)

Day Out
so today was adventures. went to a shoot and talked my sis into shooting with me, went to one of kiki's students basketball game and then hangout with kiki and nneka.
Thanksgiving
so this thanksgiving was really, really special for me because kiki and his lil sister came to spend it with me and my family. just being able to get past that first holiday "meeting" is what i wanted. i don't have too much to write no the day, because i think working on typing more on my more recent blogs is something i need to do, but one thing that i really won't forget about the holiday is my siblings doing there makeup with his sis to make her feel more comfortable, my bf teaching us how to play monopoly and we spending 5 hours on it (lol), going to maries to eat, meeting up with mocha ad gu at the mall, my bf and his sis meeting some of my cousins, and my favorite part is. well i guess i'll start by saying before we eat, me and my siblings started this thing where we have to go around the table and name 3 things that we were thankful for. so anyway, when it got to him, in front of everyone, he said he was thankful for his Golden Baby (a nickname he calls me), that and for me inviting him to his first real thanksgiving. it was so cute lol, but yeah. i think i'll stop there lol. here are some pixies from the day below.
Marie In Town
guess who came to visit me? MARIE. i could''t believe she's finally here. or plans for her to visit finally happened. she got to meet kiki, come out with us, we talk, hang. it feels like she didn't stay as long, because i had to work a lot of the time. but it was so nice having her here :D
Red Hair Shoot
so even though i'm not receiving any pictures from this shoot (rolls eyes). here are some behind the scenes images from it :D
Iowa City
so sad. these are the only pics from the tip that were on my twitter. with my phone being stolen, my backup was only done in august and i lost all the pictures.
but anyway. kiki took me on one of his work trips to Iowa City. the whole area from the hotel, to the hospital was just BEAUTIFUL. the room was perfect, we had amazing sushi, went on random adventures when he was off work and i even got us pretty awesome souvenirs.

Curly Hair
Hey guys. It's been awhile but I finally think I've had this hair in long enough to write a detailed review on it. So my next protective style I tried Malaysian Afro Kinky Curly Hair.
Length: When the hair is straightened it is the length of 26, 28, and 28. 3 bundles should be the minimum for a sew in like this. More if you want it thicker. But with as much leave out and curls with the hair you really don't need a lot.
Color: 1B
Styling: With smaller portions it's easy to style. Before beginning styling. Don't forget to detangle your hair. With working with smaller, pre-made sections. It makes the detangling process easier. So far the styles I know you can try with this hair is all down, two ponytails (with some down or not), a bun or two ponytails I'm sure if you see other styles you can incorporate it to this Vixen Sew In also.
So Good
forgot if these were at the same place or not lol. (just updating the blog) But these were relish!
Gwens BDay Night
Mocha and Gu came to Atlanta for Nneka's bday. The only night i was able to go out with them pixies. (had to work most of the time lol)
Red Lobster
Its been so long since i've been to Red Lobster. I think the last time was actually a year and a half ago in Kalamazoo. It was still soon good.
New Orleans
Day 1:
me and my sister went on a trip to New Orleans. our first day there were still pretty tired because the night before in Atlanta, we all went out. but the first day after arriving in New Orleans, I went to look around the hotel as Gwen napped. we than got dressed and on our way to the Alligator Tour it started raining and thundering so we decided to not go to it. instead we ended up finding a place to eat and than we went to this museum called Ogden Museum of Southern Arts. they had a lot of amazing pieces and really talented artistic paintings and pictures from not only students that went to school in New Orleans but also from people around the community. After the museum we were pretty tired because we walked everywhere. so we relaxed in the hotel for the rest of the night.
Dinner Before I Go
So before heading to New Orleans with my sister. I decided to try out this new restaurant in Atlanta. And just do something nice for my boyfriend. I've kinda been obsessed with groupon lately so I used this groupon code that gave me 49% off of our meal. The total ended up being $34 for a 2 person meal. Including 1 Appetizer, 2 Entrées, and 1 Dessert.
