I'm a fountain of the most random information. I'm pretty, only because it's weird to call oneself beautiful. I'm weird in all the good ways. I live in the greatest city on Earth. I was Sasha before Beyonce was schizophrenic. My life is stranger than fiction. But please, don't take my word for it. My pen is mightier than my sword. Instagram

Today is black friday. Which means another thanksgiving has come and gone. Another feast, another family affair, another day of standing in the kitchen all day, cooking like a slave. Gotta love tradition. So this year, much like every year, everyone kept saying how thankful they were for life and family and friends and blah diddy blah blah blah. And that's cool and all but everywhere I looked, all I saw were these sickening, hallmark worthy cliches. I kept waiting to see or hear something real and it just never came because most people are bullshitters. If someone was to tell you right now "i keep it 100" they just lied to yo ass. So now, I'm gonna list all the things I'm thankful for and be as real as I possibly can. Maybe this will make up for all the bs we all have to put up with every year.... I'm thankful for these grenadians I'm related to. These people (they hate it when I call them that) are the bane of my existence but without them, I wouldn't be alive so I'm guessing that means I'm kind of obligated to love them and even like them from time to time. I'm thankful for my douchelord brother, who has been a wonderful example for me. An example of who I absolutely positively SHOULD NOT turn into. Ass. I'm thankful that my parents make good enough money that they've been able to afford certain luxuries that were oblivious to me in childhood but have become detrimental to my growth in adulthood. I'm still trying to run away from it. I'm thankful for my best friend who I never imagined would be my best friend. And now, 9 years later, I can't imagine her not being my best friend. Life is strange that way. I'm thankful for my bestie's bestie. The fact that she likes coco in her jull is the foundation upon which our judgmental friendship stands. Either that, or we're both just really bad people. The world may never know. I'm thankful for a certain "dark skinned" haitian, thankful for the fact that even though she knows she shouldn't be in society, she still ventures out for the rest of the world to enjoy her crazy antics. I'm also VERY thankful that she knows where she lives. If she didn't, we might have a problem. I'm thankful for people who don't know where they live. Without them, I wouldn't appreciate the ones that do. I'm thankful for a man who knows how to hold me. Even if he is a douchemonster. I'm thankful for the people who say what they mean and mean what they say, the ones who love me because of, not in spite of my flaws. My chosen family: Denise, Casandra, Andy, Naomi, Rony...among various others. I'm thankful for God because He's awesome. Last but not least, I'm thankful for this Blogger app on my phone because I wrote this whole thing without having to leave my room and see "those people". Happy holidays ;)
