Have I actually not posted in awhile? I'm sorry. I said I would do better.

Well, this is going to be short and sweet. I want everyone to check out this link and if you can make it please come out and support. If you know anyone that is in the State of California, please spread the word.



DIVA'S SIMPLY SINGING 2008

DIVAS SIMPLY SINGING! is a magical evening of song and entertainment that will benefit Women Alive Coalition in 2008. This unusual event features a host of the most talented women in the entertainment business united in a benefit concert to continue the courageous battle against HIV/AIDS.


In 1990 Sheryl Lee Ralph established the Diva Foundation and created DIVAS Simply Singing! as a loving memorial to the many friends she had lost to HIV/AIDS. For 18 consecutive years, the DIVA and her friends have come together to raise their voices in song and commitment to HIV/AIDS awareness and prevention. Each diva performs one song with the sole accompaniment of a concert grand piano. It's like no other show you've seen. The lights, the mic, and DIVAS Simply Singing!

Every cent of the millions raised through their efforts goes to help men, women, and children infected and affected by HIV/AIDS. AIDS affects us all!

Make a donation of $25 or more to the DIVA Foundation and receive a copy of the 16th or 17th Annual DIVAS Simply Singing! DVD. See the show everyone has been talking about. Donations accepted online via PayPal. Visit the Diva Merchandise page for more information.

Don't miss this year's show, save the date:

JULY 25TH, 2008

I KNOW, I KNOW, I KNOW. It has been a helluva long time since I blogged. Not like I get a lot of readers but I do love and appreciate the few I have.

Where do I begin? Ummm work is going very well. I am truly enjoying my job, of course once my 6 months temp time is up I look forward to moving into another dept. Yea, like my company back in LA, they are making me temp for 6 months before I become perm. Can I say that there is sooooo much eye candy at my job that it looks like a candy shop. No joke. I mean both sexes. It's hot

I am still in the process of looking for my own spot. Finding a decent apartment has proven to be very challenging. I went to one area, thinking it was an upscale area, walked inside the apt and got sick to my stomach. How can anyone show an apartment like that. Well, actually no one was there, the renter left the door open and told me that I could go in and to call here if I liked the place. I should have know just from that.

I am still meeting new people, trying to get a small friend base that is not associated with my best friend (that's another story for another time). I need my own group of friends. It's been going pretty well. A little slow but it's for the best.

THE DEBT IS COMING DOWNNNNNN. Thank you LORD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have less the amoun due on my student loan than I thought, which is a great thing. I anticipate being debt free by my birthday. MARCH 9th. Pray my strength. Thanks everyone for the advice regarding the UK or debt free.

I had my first root canal on yesterday. I clowned in the dentist office. It was painfull. He gave me the novacaine. It was kewl but when he started to dig and get the nerve, that's when I lost it. The **** hurt. He had to stick the syringe in the hole on the nerve to numb it. That was worse. Man, I felt like giving up the ghost and go home to glory. I have to go back on Monday to have it completed. The dentist said " the worst is over", how many times have we heard that one.

Ok, I have been here on the east coast for 4 months now and have yet to meet an east coast blogger. Umm what's up with that east coast????? I'm waiting???????? J/K, I know we all are busy

Oh, I will be in Chicago for the Thanksgiving Holiday. So Mr. Chicago Blogger lets meet sir.

My old, old, old friend Mr. BB. Let's get it together man. I haven't seen you in a veery long time. Let's make it happen. Did you call Kevin on his Bday? He will be in ATL the first week for Augst.

Mr. TJ, I will be in LA Oct, 8 - 13th. We will have dinner, on me of course. I owe you.

Have a great week everyone.

June 4th

I know, I know. It's been a min. since I have blogged. Where should I begin? Miami, Apt, Job, there is soo much.

Ok, I will start with Miami for Memorial Day. Can I say that it was truly five star for me. It was not trash, smutty, everything was first class.
I went to Miami for Memorial day and meet some friends from LA and Chicago there. Can I tell you that I had a ball. I haven't partied until 7 and 8am in a very long time. It was well worth it. I had no problems getting right in the clubs, the music was banging and the people were hella kewl.
Miami was great. Words can not describe it. The beach was off the hook. Yes it was a clothing optional beach. Yes I have a pic..... LOL

Enough of that.

Started my new job in Newark. I like the company so far. They have a full cafe where food can be cooked on the spot. That's a plus. The pay is ok for now but looking to make a little more. It's in negotiations.

Still looking for an apt. I found one here in Union City but the bedroom is ryte on the sidewalk. Looking in Newark but not deep in Newark. Actually looking for a nice loft.

Ok, check this out. I usually don't put my personal business out here but I am almost out of debt. I am so excited. Here's the thing I can be totally debt free by the end of the year but I also want to save for my trip to the UK next year for my birthday. What should I do? Go ahead and clear up the debt and wait for the trip or pay half the debt and take the trip. Help me out readers. TRENT HELLLLLLPPPPPPPPP

Ok, I am going to jump up off here. I will holla at you good people later. Ok, Fuzz. How about BBQ's or is there somewhere else we all can meet up that I can get to? Let me know.

May 21, 2008

Hey, what's going on Blogland? Hope all is well with everyone. Thanks to the few that read my blog. I appreciate it.

It's 12:37 am, sitting here listening to "Any Crown" sung by Juanita Bynum. I'm in a state. Lot's going through my mind. I spoke to one of my former church members back in Chicago tonite and got so home sick for my church family. I miss the ministry and the fellowship. Not to say that I have not attended a service here. I did make it to Agape Family Worship Center with Pastor Lawrence Powell and enjoyed the service. (sorry Fuzzy, I was riding with someone else or I would have made plans to meet up with you sir.)

I have been preparing and packing for Miami. I have been waiting for this trip since last year and now all of a sudden I'm not excited anymore. It seems so pointless to me now. What is the hype, why am I going, am I to old for all of this. Although, it's my first time going, it seems to be for nothing now. What am I going to get out of the trip? What will it bring to my life? Will it edify the Lord? Will I be able or should I say would I witness to someone to let them know that no matter what they go through and no matter what life may brings God still loves them. I do believe that it is God's desire for all to be saved and I hope that I can just encourage one person then my trip will not be in vain. (Did I just answer all my questions that I just posted?)

I am going to do something that I have only done once before. If I keep it up, only time will tell.
I am going to post my pic. There will be a before and after.

Hope I don't scare anyone away.

Peace and Blessings

5/1/08

Good early morning blogland. It's 3:22am on this Thursday morning. I am sitting here at my laptop with my headphones on listening to CeCe Winans new cd "Thy Kingdom Come". It's awesome. Total praise and worship. It's been a rough one you guys I lost a friend this week. Her name was Chelsea. She was on her way back from Africa 3wks ago. She was doing volunteer wrk working with the women of Monkey Biz(an organization that assist women in Africa that are HIV positive and that have AIDS) and somehow a blood clot that started in here leg ended up in her lung. She died on Sunday. It's still a shock. They sent me yesterday her Africa journal that she was keeping on youtube (Journey to Africa). Just sad.

On another note. Since being here on the east coast, I feel that I have the form of Godliness but no power there of. I really need to get back to my prayer life and to my service. I have yet to find a church home. I was to check out a church in Rahway and have yet to make it there. I have time to make it to all these plays I will def make time for church on Sunday. I better get a big umbrella.

I have not started working yet but things are looking prosperous. I believe it's all in God's timing. Thank God I have a nice reserve and haven't had to jump in it yet.

I am headed to Miami for Memorial Day. I have never been so hey, why not. I am going to live life. I realize that life is too short to just walk around and not live to your full potential. In God's word he says" I come to give you life and that more ABUNDANTLY". Who says that God's people can laugh and enjoy themselves? Certainly not the Lord.

Again on another note. I have had two dates since I have been here on the East Coast. Both were pretty kewl. One was brunch and the other was lunch. Both were great and I really enjoyed. Long days and long conversations. One we had so much in common it was scary. Even to both of us having a love for Borders Books. That is odd. lol

Well my friends I will leave on this note. It comes from the Book of Psalms. Psalms 27:14
Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage. And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord!

Out of Control

Hey, what's going on Blog Fam? I am so sorry for not keeping up with my blog since I have been here on the east coast.

I have missed a lot by not checking in. Fuzzy, I apologize for missing the B-day Party (HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY SIR) and I guess I missed the blogger reunion.

Things have been a little crazy here but a good crazy. Still not working yet but its all good. Been to several plays, been to DC and just making plans to handle business.

Off to Miami in May so that should be an exciting trip. I still hope to meet a few of the east coast bloggers sooner or later. I feel as if I have been missing a lot.

Until later.

Peace and Blessings
