I was totally about to post about this disturbing situation I had this evening but upon further inspection, now that my blog is no longer private and anyone can just wander through, I've decided to censor it so that I dont incriminate my self or others in the process. LOL! So. Nothin happened. Nothing..at all...If you want to know PM me and I'll share the info with you lol!
In the meantime "yes we can" tell lies and all that shit lol!

16 random things
Rules: Once you’ve been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 16 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 16 people to be tagged.
You have to tag the person who tagged you.
1. Some of you may know this and some of you may not but I am in love with cheese. It is my favorite food of all.frickin.time! It makes my heart sing. When I go to my grandparents house the first thing they ask is if I want some cheese, everyday, without fail. I blame my grandfather because when I was a kid he'd sit with me on the porch and feed me Kraft singles. Yummy the memories!
2. Though loud as all get out with people I know, I'm kind of shy around strangers. I believe in feeling people out before speaking to them.
3. Along with Emma, I talk to myself. I think it's a sign of genius... or extreme selfishness. One of the two. I don’t think some of my thoughts are appropriate for friends. That’s all. I too talk to inanimate objects, but I also appropriate feelings for them. For instance "are you sad Mr. Book? I didn’t mean to smoosh your cover." or "Mr. Coat noooooooo!".
4. UT chopped and skrewed me. I went to go apply for graduation and they told me I had enough for a Science teacher. I dont like teaching. How does this help me? I have talked to my advisor about being a doctor for 4 years! What does she mean!? Nothing to be done about it, but they stroked me. So, not only was I gonna be there another year anyway after needing to take time off when my mom got sick, I'm gonna be here longer to finish up the remaining 14% of my pre-med program. Sweet. I LOVE the idea of having kids at 79! Can you say sextuplets?
5. I have senioritis. Bad. I hate school and everything about it. I have been in some form of school for 20 years. It hurts my soul. The only reason I didnt say f'it after number 4 happened is because I refuse to give those hatin bastards the satisfaction and I will say "CLEAR!" one day damnint! I find it hard to get up and go to class, I feel like that old kid who rides around the high school 3 years after graduation. Gross!
6. I look at peoples shoes. If you know me, I've judged you based on your shoes before. Dont feel bad, I approved, lol! I dont know why, my shoes are nothing spectacular it's just something I always do.
7. I am a music head! I love everything about music. It fills me with joy, no joke. I can play the flute, french horn, piano and now the electric guitar. I want to learn to play the sax and the trumpet sometime next year. If I didnt want to be a doctor, I would surely change my major to music. Music is the great equalizer. It speaks without words. It is one of the few things that brings me to tears on a regular basis. I LOVE IT and you should too!
8. I'm leery of males. In general. No exceptions. Except Jesus.
9. I hate driving with passion and fervor! I hate sitting still for long periods of time. I didnt get my license until I was 21! I had no problem receiving rides. None. My mom did have a problem with this. Hence the license.
10. I am a phantom napper. I've been an insomniac for as long as I can remember so naps are necessary. What sets me apart is that I dont want people to know I nap. I'm not a lazy person and I hate doing nothing. When I'm off work I find meaningless things to fill my time with. So the idea of me sitting around napping and wasting precious daytime minutes kills me! I lie about it sometimes. I cant help it, I'm so ashamed. And wasteful.
11. My mom is my best friend. I dont mean that in some sort of strange cliché way. She is seriously my best friend. I kick it with my mom all the time. She is the person I share my secrets, most of them anyway, with. When that Golden Girls song comes on, I think of her. I love her to pieces!
12. I have a vast knowledge of useless information. Seriously. It is well known that if you want to know something strange and obscure, call Tiara. If I dont know, I'll google it on the spot! I love google. It completes me. I also have a vast knowledge of song lyrics and movie quotes, no not just quotes, movies. Most movies I've seen I am able to quote with surprising accuracy. It's freakish. One of my "friends" calls me the rain man of useless knowledge. I'm so proud.
13. I'm a little afraid of the dark. Not every day downstairs at night dark, creepy basement dark. Sleeping over at a strange new place dark. Coincidently some nights I have to make it pitch black for me to go to sleep. I'm a conundrum.
14. I LOVE ANIMALS! I love them soooo much it's ridiculous. I get really sad when I see a dead animal on the road. I will swerve, within good common sense, to miss squirrels. That Human Society commercial, with the Sheryl Crowe song, makes me cry EVERY TIME! I'm a sucker for them and they know it!
15. I'm tryna get right with Jesus. I must admit that in the last few years I have strayed, considerably, from the path that the Lord has set out for me. I can see the results of what happens when you have come out from under the Lords protection, for instance NUMBER 4!, and am trying very hard to get back. Hell is not a joke! Now, I'm no Kevin Webb, LOL, but I am trying to strengthen my relationship with God.
16. I secretly hate those "above the influence" commercials. Those are dramatic dramatizations! They talk about not letting people rule your life or tell you what to do, but arent they also suggesting what you should do? I dont think that we should pass out weed to the kids, no I know the effects of that and it aint okay, but they should be raised to be strong minded individuals not lead by anything else but their conscious and God.

Realest ish I never wrote
Dear Internet friends and family,
Greetings and salutations! It is a beautiful new day in this our United States of America. A person of color and a myriad of backgrounds has been voted by a nation stifled with oppression its ruler. Who thought that this day would come? Come on be honest! Alright…who thought it’d come this soon? Yeah, me neither. I remember when my mother would tell me that I could be the first black/woman president and here we are arriving at this historic moment decades before we thought we would! The joy that we should feel is gargantuan in nature! The elation should echo across the states but it doesn’t. Instead of celebrating this monumental event that should bind us together here we stand, divided. Now, this letter by no means is for all of us. There are some of us who have heard the call of equality and answered in loud voice, YES WE CAN! Still, there are others who let issues rooted in ignorance and lies rule their minds and it is to these people that I wish to speak this morning.
To say that race is not an issue in this election is to say that race is not an issue in our country. We all know that this is unequivocally false. So why not address it head on okay? Barack Obama is African, English, Irish and German. He has lived in the U.S (including Hawaii) as well as Indonesia. So yes, your President is black, but he’s also White. SO WHAT? Does this make him any more or less qualified for his position? I think the most annoying thing about this campaign has been people claiming to not care about race, offering up their usual I have three black friends qualifier, and then jumping immediately into a tirade about RACE and completely ignoring the politics! Just stop it..let it go! While I’m on this topic let’s address the racist jokes/e-mails I received November 15th and here’s a surprise; only two were from white people. Shocking? No, not really.
1. You better get you some water cuz it’s about to be a whole lot of salty crackers walking around
2. All white people must report to the cotton fields tomorrow morning at 7am for orientation
3. The statue of liberty is coming down today; aunt jamima is going up holding a chicken leg.
4. Breaking News! Obama is tearing up the Rose Garden in the white house and replacing it with a watermelon patch.
I received at least four more but these are just the ones I got over and over and over again. Seriously? I challenge my special friends who sent this to take some time out and go talk to your grandparents. I did. Do you know what they expressed? Joy. Pure, unabashed joy. These people KNOW what it’s like to struggle. They know what it’s like to be so oppressed they feel that there is no future for them or their own. These people are the ones who lived through the civil rights clinging to the hope that their grandchildren would have a better future and not one of these people sent me a message of hate or prejudice. That came from my generation, and while I agree that the struggle continues I also agree that we need to stop perpetuating the hate and conduct ourselves with the dignity of our ancestors and future leader.
Next on the list is our McCain supporter friends. For the most part, I’m proud of you. You guys were going all out to get McCain in office, and though I disagree with your decision making process, I respect our differences. So, how about we get over it already? Stop posting stupid references about Marxist humor and Socialist policies, we get it, you’re clever. Stop talking about moving to Canada or the Netherlands, if you had the funds to do that you’d of left years ago. Stop posting stupid videos that claim we don’t know who we voted for. Stop using MySpace and facebook as your personal crying grounds. Here’s what ya need to do; take a bubble bath. Breathe in those healing aromas and then cry into your pillow. When you feel you’ve gotten it all out, join the rest of us and help rebuild this damn country. Seriously though Obama is your next president, stop whining and get with the program.
The next section is for the conspiracy theorist in us all. Barack Obama is NOT the anti-Christ. I repeat BARACK OBAMA IS NOT THE ANTI CHRIST! Just like all great leaders Obama has inherited this title joining the ranks of Mahatma Gandhi; The newest Pope and John F. Kennedy. You see how well THOSE panned out for ya? I was going to dissect this argument piece by piece but to avoid offending anyone and their religion I declined to. If you WOULD like a dissection of this argument and where it FAILS HORRIBLY by all means, write me and I will shoot one out to ya, in the meantime I suggest spending some time in prayer with God. Talk to him, ask to be guided and he will show you the truth. Along with this argument are the “I didn’t vote for Obama because I don’t want my soul to go to hell” crew. How dare you assume you understand the reasons a nation voted. Judge not least ye be judged! Everyone who voted for Barack Obama aren’t godless, homosexual sinners who wallow in wrongness waiting for the day that the next baby will be slaughtered. I am a Christian and I stand strong in my beliefs. I love the Lord with all my heart and soul and no one will tell me different. I have no reason to question Obama’s salvation or his walk with the Lord and neither do you. Whereas I don’t agree with abortions I believe the ramifications of that decision lie within that woman who does and God. He granted us free choice for a reason. GAY RIGHTS AND ABORTIONS ARE NOT THE ONLY THINGS GOD DISAGREES WITH! I challenge all of you to take a step down of the high horse and reflect on your own lives. How many things would God want for you to remove from your heart? Now how many of those things are you ready, really ready, to give up. The Bible says there is no weight on sin, you better believe it. What about protecting our planet that God gave us? What about helping the poor and sick? What about LOVING our neighbors whether homosexual or not? What about PEACE on earth? Let’s focus on all the issues involved and not just the one’s it’s easy to argue.
In closing, this letter was not meant to offend, this was not my intention. If it did I would challenge you to question yourself about why it did. If it hit too close to home it’s never too late to get on my level. For my lovely friends who already did YES WE DID!
Love all around,
Tiara
P.S. Not to be rude but I’m not interested in arguing with you about these topics. If I wanted your opinion I would have asked for it. Kay? Thanks!

It's been forever!
I've been saying I was gonna post here for MONTHS! I just havent had the time, those out there in blogger world know how it is and what's up! School has started again and I am halfway through this semester...it's easier than usual..I'm worried. So much crap has happened, let's discuss!
1. I turned 23!
Year of the Jordan
I am offically GROWN! I dont know why but I have always thought that 23 means you are officially adult and what now! Granted you can go to big people jail but people actually think you can have intelligent convo with them! I am so excited. For my recent age change I re-did my room. Yeah, new paint, furniture, set up it's hot like fire! Then I cop'ed an all new wardrobe. Oh yeah I realized while re-doing my room that I have 32 t-shirts that say things. THIRTY TWO! Can you believe that? They are cute and I like them but it was time to move on. Thennnn I cut my hair! That's right my hair that I have been growing for years, the hair that was slowly creeping down my back, chopped off to chin lenght. I miss it..badly! I cant wait for it to grow back.
2. BARACK OBAMA!
I have SERIOUS Obama fever! I was so thrilled when he was elected I didnt know what to do with myself! I campaigned for him for months and to see it come to pass was amazing! We are taught from a young age to not expect much out of life and to be happy with what were given. We are told we can be anything we want to be with a few expectations and this is supposed to be enough. Today though, I honestly believe these things. I honestly believe that my potential is limitless and you should too! YES WE DID!
I gotta go do some actual homework so I have to go. Hey, how about some Young Jeezy to ease the pain of parting?
I'm officially changing my slogan to YES WE CAN!
