I Met A Man… (Follow-up)

Chanel

When I was in my first year at university, I had a math lecturer who had the tendency to say “This one will separate the men from the boys.” when he gave us a particular complex math question to solve. I took that statement to heart when I realized how appropriate it is for life. […]

I Met A Man…

For the last year or so, I’ve have spent my time and energies primarily focused on rediscovering myself and God. This journey has been amazing! Over the period, I have encountered many males and frankly I have never felt compelled to look a second time. I have been very focused on God and me. This […]

God Speaks

meditation

Last night I wrote my first post for the year. In this post, I spoke about taking a page from David’s book and executing my one point plan for the year which involves getting closer to God and watching the pieces fall in place. Imagine my surprise when I woke this morning to find this as my Bible […]

Watch the Pieces Fall in Place

I must first apologize for not posting anything since the beginning of the year. This lack is not due to the fact that I didn’t have anything to say. Rather, it is a direct result of feeling off whenever I put pen to paper or in this case, fingers to my keyboard. As a result […]

I am THANKFUL

Thank You

As I knelt praying a few moments ago, I found myself reflecting on how I was almost four years ago and immediately I felt thankful. Sometimes we take the simple things for granted but if we just take a moment to look back… If you would just take a moment to remember where He brought […]

A Letter to My Future Husband and Baby Daddy

Hi Sweetheart, On this day when everyone is talking about their great dads, my mind moves forward to think of you. Although I had many father figures, I didn’t have a great dad. Sweetheart, thank you for being one to our child. Whenever I hear this song, I think of you. I know sometimes I […]

My Wingman, Javahan

I’m feeling a bit sentimental today. My wingman, squadie and partner-in-crime for the past two years is moving away today… When I say moving, it’s not moving like 2 minutes away like he has been for the past 2 years but moving like almost 3 hours away :(. I feel this one to my heart […]

Weird First Dates Part 1: Mr. Reincarnation

Romantic

I was talking to my friend today and we had a good laugh about some of the guys she went out with who were queer or just out off this world. I’ve had some of these experiences and I’ve decided to share in a 3 part series: WEIRD FIRST DATES…. I met this guy in […]

A Letter to My 10 Year Old Self

Hi Chan, knowing you the way I do, you are no doubting trying to figure how it was possible for this letter to get to you. Stop focusing on that, focus on the words of wisdom I’m about to impart to you after 22 years on earth. At this point, I know you are still […]
