My Sewing Machine

Yo Man, this is a nice picture. My head is up straight and I look so nice.
I'm so vain.I wanted to share this picture with everybody. Me doing my sewing.
This is me, my personality just comes out like a bull. Ok, so maybe i don't look like a bull in the picture, but my true sign is a taurus.
This weekend I met with my buddy. She came over to hang out. We did a drawing together. Her name is Rehab. She draws well.
I hope everybody has a nice day. talk to you soon!

A short story that's not that short... by Nadia Weekes. (Tanya Chamberlain was my assistant) It took forEVER to write

Complicated

Tonight’s the big night. I am invited to the party of the year, the VIP party. Fabio is going to be there. I really dig this guy, he’s cool, he’s sweet, he’s hot, he’s kind of a bad ass. He knows what he wants, and he goes and gets it. That’s what we have in common, we have similarities.
My friends ask me what to wear; they all know that I’m the fashion diva. They came over to my house, and we are choosing out of my wardrobe. One of the girls, Rebecca, wanted a particular outfit and so I helped her out, and made it. It’s long, black with a little bit of silver in it and very elegant. And it has a rose in the middle with vines contouring the waist, and a slit up the leg just to add a little bit of sexiness. This is what I want to do for a living, to make money so I can survive. Maybe when I get a husband and kids I don’t have to worry about it.
We arrived at the party in my parents’ car, the Lexus. The party is being held at a big hall and it is huge! I wore my best outfit and I look dang good. It is hopping in here! There’s dancing and, drinks and food, the DJ is not bad either. He’s playing Socca, Calypso, and even a little bit of hip-hop. There’s a little bit of everything.
Suddenly our eyes met. There was passion; we both knew we were meant to be together. We tried to be together before, but our parents didn’t understand. Joanne and Harry say he’s bad news, especially mom. But tonight was different, I didn’t tell mom where I was going. Dad knew but I just couldn’t tell mom.
I’m having a great time with Fabio and the girls. He insists on giving me something to keep the party going. He slips something into my drink. I pretend not to notice, I play naive. Little did I know, he had other intentions than staying at the party. He wanted his own party, just the two of us. I’m feeling kind of sleepy, I sit down but then Fabio picks me up and puts me into the car. Where are all my friends? They didn’t notice that I was gone because they were having too much fun. Rebecca had no idea what I was doing. Fabio takes me back to his house where he laid me down on the couch. I have no idea where I am, I am so confused. Fabio just wants to have sex, and I don’t know what I’m doing here. After it’s over, I feel so used, violated. I don’t understand why he did that. We were both wasted, things went way too far. We both had no idea what we were doing, right? What would people think?
Later that day Rebecca and Diane call me to see where I got to last night because they hadn’t heard from me all day. It’s not like me not to call Becky like this, she knows something’s up.

R: “What the ass? Where the hell have you been?”
C: “What do you mean?”
R: “You haven’t answered the damn phone, and I’ve been calling you all day!”
C: “I’m just so tired. I went home with that guy, Fabio.”
R: “God damn! Don’t you know he’s bad news? I don’t like this guy already, you better be careful, girl. What did you do?”
C: “What do you mean what did I do?”
R: “I hope you didn’t do anything stupid.”
C: “Well…”

After a few weeks, I began to feel dizzy, nauseated. I went to the clinic with Rebecca to see what was up with my body. Doctor Hugley is understanding. He’s like a parent full of concern, full of worries. He asked so many questions it made me a little bit scared and uncomfortable and nervous. He checked me out and ran some tests. When he told me the news, the reason why I was feeling so sick, my heart dropped. In the back of my mind, I already knew before, but no one is ever prepared for this news. I was pregnant. How do I tell mom and dad?
Later that night I made them diner, sat them down to tell them the news. I said,
C: “Oh, by the way, I have something to tell you. You’re going to be grandparents!”
P: “What do you mean?!”
They’re jaws dropped, they were shocked. They didn’t know what to say.
C: “What do you mean, ‘what do you mean?’ You’re going to be grandmamma, and you grandpapa.”
P: “Oh my goodness! We’re not ready yet, and you’re not ready yet either!”
C: “Well, we’ll take it one step at a time.”
P: “Well, what do you expect? You can’t live here with your kid. Don’t you know how to use protection? You can’t even think before you do it? You didn’t think about you career, your future? We can’t feed another person in this house, we can’t have another mouth to feed. You should have used your head before.”
I left that moment and never came back. I didn’t know what to do, somehow i ended up at Fabio’s house. I told him everything.
C: “You have to help me. I can’t do it myself.”
F: “Sure, I’ll help you, this is my baby too. I didn’t mean to get you pregnant, but it happens. I’ll help you.”
Fabio told his parents too; Dayna and Justin. They were kind of understanding, but kind of mad too; not as bad as mine. His parents wanted to meet my family and talk to them because it’s not right that they abandoned me like that. Dayna and Justin talked to Joanne and Harry. They invited them over for dinner.
Joanne and Harry said that they overreacted and apologized. They were just really in shock. The diner went really well. My parents even offered to help when the baby comes, they will try to be there. With a little less to stress us out, Fabio and I decided to take time to get to know each other better before the baby is here, and our parents too.

-9 Months Later-

Dr. Hughley: It’s a boy, it’s a boy!
After everything that happened, this little bundle of joy is the most important thing in my life, I am so happy. Fabio and I are getting married, he proposed a few months ago. We will get married in May or June. Things couldn’t be better, even our parents are fine with the idea. Everybody’s happy in the end, including me. It was the hardest thing I had to do, but was well worth the fight. Becky is our little boys godmother. And that’s the end of my story, everybody lives happily ever after.

At least she takes a shower now. I want to go see a movie, but i just need somebody to go with. plus i dont remember the name of the movie i wanted to see.all i remember is that it is a comedy. it's a black comedy. i have to check on the internet. i sewed up my jacket, Al's jacket and a bag yesterday using the sewing machine.

Happy New Year Everybody!

I hope you people had a nice holiday!
I hope you didn't drink too much!
I hope you had lots of fun!

For me, the holiday was very long, sooooo loooong, but I had some fun too! I went to Tracy and Dawna's house for a "hawnica" party and I met my cousin Kevin there. I hadn't seen him in a long time and he was very surprised to see me. He also knew tracy's sister, and her name is Ariel. It's a small world!

Today is my brother's birthday, he's turning 34 years old. We're almost the same age, so this is making me feel a bit old!

I don't know what else to say, but I hope everybody had a good new year! And Ron, I wish you a happy birthday older bro!

Love Nadia
