I don’t get asked out much. This is my first time going to someone’s dinner for their birthday. I have to say that I had fun. It was interesting hanging out with other Jamaicans were more Jamaican than I was. What I mean by that is, they came to this country when they were in their adult years, while I came when I was 10 going to be 11. So they have more experience being a Jamaican speaking Patois than I do.

My accent isn’t as great as I thought it would be. I guess that’s is a byproduct of being made fun of as a middle school student by black Americans and white Americans. I felt like I had no other choice but to assimilate and change the way you speak to make others comfortable. In the process of doing that I lost my accent, my confidence and flow of speaking patois.

Still it was fun. It’s like I’m learning how to speak like myself again. Plus I have this great appreciation in the last two years for being Jamaican, being black, Christian, woman, being other.

Read the book. It is Very different in many ways from the movie.

Would I recommend it? Yes

Why? Because reading is fun, plus it's a quick read if you don't have a life. It beats scrolling on tumblr and twitter endlessly for hours. That was not a shade, if it was it was for myself, because insta, facebook and I have a weird black hole relationship.

I should be going to bed. But I am going to watch 30minutes of this, because Tumblr.

Then I'll go to Bed.

IT REALLY TOOK ALOT...not to watch the rest of this. I went on a mini lunch break today and I watched 30 more minutes. I didn't want to stop honestly.

My question is...so I won't feel like a weirdo, how old is he? (The main character) I don't want to develop an unautherized crush.

Update||

He's 22 and his name is Noah Centineo. He's still a coming of age baby :) I am glad he's in his 22s though, I wouldnt be able crush on anything younger.

When you finally play in makeup…Who is this ?!

Just a humble girl finally seeing her Glow.

What do you think it means, in a Christian context, to be a submissive wife?

A marriage requires both partners to serve each other. The Bible verse people quote is that a woman should submit to their husband and they forget the part where it says men are to love their wives like Christ loved the church. Christ loved the church (ie the people) by serving them. So men are called to love and serve their wives. Submitting to a partner in the Christian sense isn’t the same as the colloquial sense. The Bible tells us to be slaves to no one. And women are not the be slaves to their husbands. Submission is about service, respect, and reverence. All things that make for a good and healthy relationship. Both parties should want to serve and support and love each other. It’s not about dominion. Your partner is your helper. In the way that Eve wasn’t an animal under Adam’s dominion. She was set apart and separate to help him with God’s purpose for him.
