My mind...........~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You cannot depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus.
Mark Twain (1835 - 1910)


Once in awhile you may see random quotes on random topics because my mind flows very randomly

But this quote can relate to alot of situations, but the situation I am speaking of is Men and Woman

Do your eyes see what they want to see? Does your imagination and your heart see something totally different?

My imagination has me with Mr. Perfect! Perfect height, weight, swagger, style of dress, perfect career, perfect eyes, lips, perfect words being spoken, the perfect touch and the perfect heart.....my heart sees what my imagination sees!! So what the hell is wrong with my eyes?

Why can't I see a disaster coming straight at my ass? My eyes see what they want to see and they want to see what my heart and imagination see......but then I read Mark Twains quote and I'm thinking to myself, is my imagination out of focus? Is my imagination on some sort of high thinking that that is really what I need or want for that matter. Is what my eyes are seeing really a disaster or just not what I imagined for myself?

Which makes me understand that my imagination needs to be more open minded, which will allow my heart to be more open and allow my eyes to see more clearly............or am I tripping?

She's baaaaaaack!

Happy New Year's to all! I hope everyone had a better time than I did.......it was great seeing family, the family I did see...........but I was trying to pop bottles and party all night with like 100 people...........Nah, didn't happen! But anyway, it's a new year and I'm on it big baby!! I started writing again, just finished writing a song today......all I have to say is "Hip Hop ain't dead baby". Getting back into my poetry and writing scripts. I am 3 lessons away from finishing my Fashion Merchandising course, then I gotta figure what I want to do with my Associates. I'm gonna be crazy busy, and trying to keep this job is work in itself, but I'm a celeb, I gotta stay on my grind.

Moving on...................................

So, "my favorite hue, is Jay-Z Blue" isn't just a quotable anymore, GMC is introducing the Jay-Z Blue Denali I hear. I swear is there any way this man can't make money!

People are finally reading my blogs!!!!

Well it's about damn time! Since I now know people are taking the time out to read my thoughts I guess I have to get it crackin on here more often.

Well it's almost here.........2007! Are you ready?....I'm certainly not, I have no idea what to expect from myself in 07. Every year I claim I'm going to be a better person than the year before, but I always end up being the same, and doing the same.

I really want this year to be different......I know it's gonna take alot of patience and focus
Maybe I really need to go back to church! Who knows, but I'm gonna handle business ya heard?!............I have toooooo many talents, tooooooo much to say, and damn it I'm a cutie........so, I will make a name for myself..........Ready or not here I come baby!

What are your New Year's Resolutions?

The past, The present, The future

Is your past supposed to be an example of you are presently and make you a stronger person for the future?.........I'm a bit confused! I thought that there was truth in this but if this is the case then why do I feel as though I am just stuck in my past? Myspace is a wonderful website, it has allowed me to reconnect with people from my past that I probably would have never seen or talked to if I wasn't on there. I also think that Myspace was formed to throw shit in my face...........it seems like the majority are doing something so great, and what am I doing? Sitting behind someones computer answering the phone everyday. Now I know what you are going to say "at least you have a job", "it's a paycheck", "you should be greatful"...........man whatever!!!! When you have set higher goals for yourself at a young age, you aren't trying to hear that madness. Who really just wants to work for a paycheck? Not me! I want to have pride in the work I do, I want to know that I've devoted my time to something worthwhile. It really bothered me when I opened up my myspace messages yesterday and there was a message from the guy I went to the High School prom with, it read "man I just knew I would see you TV by now".............great! Everyone saw the gift, then why hasn't the gift been opened?!!!! Why am I not doing what I know I was meant to do. My past was ok, my present is supposed to be good, to end up having the greatest future........I can't predict the future, but if ya'll think I have a chip on my shoulder now, let me be sitting in front of someones computer answering their phones in the next two years...............maaaaaaaaaaaan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well today is the day!

Today is the day I've been dreading all week! But it's here, it's the one year anniversary of my dad's death. I am hurt....I am hurt because I don't feel sad, I don't feel pain, I don't feel anything and I'm scared because he was my father..........how can you not feel sadness or pain at a time like this. I truly do miss him though and think of him often but I think something is truly wrong with me...........is this what moving on is all about? because if so, I wish the moving on process would have taken just a bit longer for me to be able to feel what my other siblings are feeling. It's a pattern though I see, my entire life I've been putting up walls, because everytime I open up I get hurt............now look what has happened I've been doing it for so long I am the wall, and because of that on this day I'm like stone...I will remember the man that helped bring me into this world, the man that has my baby brother looking exactly like him, the man that gave me all this cockiness and swagger, the man for whom I share a last name..........I am a BASDEN always and forever and I continue to represent the BASDEN name in his memory........RIP Eduardo Hugh Basden 1957-2005

Day is done......

Ok, so the work day is over thank the heavens!!!!! But everyday I realize what is really important and that is family, someone you are close with that is not only your family but your heart and soul, your bestest friend. For me that is my cousin Khendra. Not taking anything away from the others because they all know I love them so much. Khendra and I talk everyday at the same time and some times about the same stuff from yesterday but it always seems new and it's always still funny. I need her in my day to day routine, w/o her I'd go crazy! I love my sister as well, she makes me feel good knowing I can help her through anything. This job eerks me, me not being settled in my career eerks me, but never the less I'm still young, fly and flashy and represent my home all day everyday..........and got Khendra as my ride or die chick ;-)!!! Holla at ya girl!

Weezy better than Jay-Zeezy?!!!!!!!

Uuuummmm I'm laughing my a** off at this nonsense. This is why you can't tell anyone how hot they are because they just roll with that like it's nothing. Wayne, you have a great talent! Your lyrics are hot, your flow is insane.........at times!!! but you need to rewind back to before the interviewer asked you that question about Jay, and this time think before you speak!!!!!

You aren't touching that man and his history, you have a long way to go guy..................Comments please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jay-Z "Lost Ones"

See now, ya'll thought I was bias! I don't know how I feel about this video. The song is terrific, but the video isn't what I had in mind. Some of the shots were ill, I love the beginning and how it started with the intro song on the album. But I'm still wishy washy on this one..........what do ya'll think?

Billboard Awards

You know I think that these award shows are getting a bit old! Before we used to watch for the performances, now those aren't even great anymore. So why do I watch? to see what the celebs are wearing, that is my main concern. Last night, oh god last night! Janet did the damn thing, the best performance all night. Now I really like Fergie and Qwen Stefani but what were there performances all about? Three six mafia..................a total disgrace! Were they drunk? They are annoying to watch. Mary is definitely the QUEEN! She looked amazing and did her thing. There is nothing more I can say about this madness. I'm tired of all the award shows............what about you?
