Joke of the Day

Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses. He doesn't seem to be breathing and his eyes are glazed. The other guy whips out his phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps, "My friend is dead! What can I do?" The operator says "Calm down. I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead." There is a silence, then a gun shot is heard. Back on the phone, the guy says "OK, now what?"


I hope that made your day :)

Racist "Hunger Games" Fans

I just heard about a tumblr account - Hunger Games Tweets that is dedicated to "expose the Hunger Games fans on Twitter who dare to call themselves fans yet don't know a damn thing about the books." I was so shocked at the amount of racist rants by so called fans.

I thought we were in an age where people had risen above all that ignorance. Apparently, some of the folks already got death threats... That aside, the book did describe some of the characters as dark skinned but i guess the readers didn't think dark skinned should be black.

Here's a couple:

Colorblock Platform Pump

I recently got the Xhilaration Sigrid Colorblock Platform Pump at Target. This shoe is a beauty. I rocked them all throughout yesterday and they were super comfy. People were wondering how i managed to prance around in them without limping and i explained how much support the platform in front gave me.

They currently retail for $34.99 on Target's online store and i would say they are worth every penny. To make the deal even sweeter, i actually got mine on sale :)

Update:
I finally got around to taking a picture while i was wearing them. Let me stress again that i am fashion-challenged, so don't expect to be blown away :)

"We live in a society where pizza gets to your house faster than the police"

So sad, and yet so true...

Anticipation of ShamrockFest 2012

For those that don't know what ShamrockFest is, i'll explain. ShamrockFest is DC's St. Patrick's day Festival. IT. IS. HUGE! This year, it's exactly a week after St. Patrick's day and that happens to be this Saturday the 24th. I and my very good friend, Simi, actually bought our tickets a couple weeks ago and we spent the following days trying to piece together our themed outfits (I'll add another post soon showing our outfits).

I am so excited and i hope i have lots of fun. There are going to be 50 bands and DJ's with lots of beer and food vendors. I am literally counting down :) I also heard that some folks are coming from out of town just to attend the event. The RFK Stadium is going to be so packed!

Men's Shoes

I think i'm getting a little obsessed with men's shoes. I went by Target the other day and i saw a pair on sale... I just felt i had to have them. I don't know how or where i'm going to wear them, but they look nice. If all else fails, i'll just walk around in them at home :)

If i do figure out how to pair it up, i'll post a picture.

If Will Smith or Barack Obama Were White

I found this on freakingnews.com and i was so amazed at how realistic the pictures were. I believe they had a contest for peple to use photoshop to manipulate the photo's of famous black people. I can't even remember how i came across it but i just thought i'd share. These two were my favorite ones; see if you can identify which is which.

Tae Kwon Do

I got the opportunity to join a Taekwondo class for free and i was so excited about it, but then something happened. I actually started on Monday and got hurt that same Monday... Long story short, i kicked my instructor in the groin but he had a cup on so i ended up with a contusion on my foot : (

I woke up in agony on Tuesday and hopped all the way to the hospital where they told me i had to get crutches. They told me i had to use the crutches for about three week, but my stubborn self discarded them the next day. In addition, on Wednesday, i actually went back to the class to learn some punches while in a statutory position so that i wouldn't upset the foot any further. Right now, it's Thursday and i'm still limping... I can't wait for it to heal completely so i can learn how to kick ass!

Sushi!!!

I've been craving sushi for a while now and i decided to go to Oh Fish! It's this nice sushi place downtown DC although it's a little pricey. Anyways, I ordered the Peko Peko for $9 and they made it right in front of me. It was pretty cool. Anyways, i enjoyed every bit of it and i can't wait to go back (as long as i have a coupon or something)...

I know all of you rich folks probably think i'm overacting about the price but spare me, i'm a student : D

That awkward moment...

Today my three year old niece stared me point blank in the face and said -"You're nasty Tolu".
What did i do this time? *sigh!*
