Cock-blockin...yes. Hatin...hell naw!

so here's the story. there's this guy at my school right...lets call him...*derick* so derick its a decent lookin guy...looks around 26 although he is actually 32. when school started back in august, a friend of mine was kinda feelin him. he gave off the impression that he was tired of playin games and was lookin to settle down. he had been married b4 and has a 9-yr-old daughter (for whom he is seeking full custody) but thats besides the point. once he showed interest in my girl...lets call her *jennifer* they started lightweight "talkin" till she found out he was obviously in search of a f**k buddy. he was always tryin to get her to come to "college park" to his house. (sn: he always want ppl to come to his damn house) so she decided not to mess wit him like that. cuz she know what he about.  so basically this dude did his rotations and tried to talk to every good lookin girl in the class 1 by 1. on the sly. everytime a new girl came around...this nigga tried to get it in. after all this...he got less and less attractive and became a super lame.

so recently i met this girl, new friend lets call her *kenya*...in my new classes. and she is really pretty and really nice. we were talkin the other day about how fed up she is wit men playin around wit her feelings and she was on the verge of givin up on men.

so what had happened was...

kenya started talkin to derick and was discussin the situation wit me and my other friend *victoria*. now victoria was one of the girls that derick tried to scheme on. but she wasnt havin it. so what we did was put kenya up on derick's schemin ass ways. we told her not to STOP talkin to him...but just to keep her eyes open and dont catch feelings too quick. bc any of us that know him good from our other classes would warn her ass too!

so somehow he found out and said to her, "i heard u been listenin to some haters" haters bruh??? really? aint nobody tryna hate on u...i dont want u bruh! im just tryna put this innocent girl up on ur trifflin ways b4 she get herself hurt! i woulda felt bad if i DIDNT say anything then she end up gettin seriously hurt by this dude. victoria knows first hand bc he fed her the same bs like 3 months ago. he even tried to talk to me on the sly KNOWING good and well i got a man!

anyways she appreciated us tellin her wussup. and she told us about he tried to get her to come "to college park" to his house. and within 2 days she seen some of his true colors. plus...this nigga is 32 and she is 20! c'mon bruh...maybe if u wasnt so damn trifflin...u wouldnt have to worry! crazy.

Current Facebook Status...

 

 

Sharieka Bryan so uh...im fillin out this thing online right...and why the gender section got 3 options instead of 2??? F M and T??? wtf is T?? Tranny?? Why the hell is that an option?? damn 2010...u breakin my heart!

 

"You cute...for a dark skinned girl"

 

(me n my old friend Kandey in 2007)

i was just now reminded of this line i used to hear too many times...

"You cute...for a dark skinned girl"

yeah?? and may i ask what the hell is that supposed to mean? cuz im dark skinned im supposed to be ugly and ashy??? why cant i just be cute? Fortunately...i dont give a damn about stuff like that anymore. i love my chocolateness! i just never understood. 

You never hear:

"You cute...for a light skinned girl..."

i guess light skinned girls are just "expected" to be cute. so if they stumble upon a busted light skinned girl...do they say..."she ugly...for a light skinned girl"? 

hmmm...

Throwback Joint...Mya & Sisqo: All About Me

1998 throwback...tell me why i was 12 tryna do them dances? LOL enjoy!



...and what was up wit everybody wearing oversized jumpsuits in their '90s music videos??

life...

so right now its 3:03 am. and i have an 8am class. please tell me why im still up!

first off...the fact that i had an 8am class yesterday morning forced  me to sleep all afternoon when i got home. woke up when it was dark. so im up. im pretty sure this is the beginning of a very screwed up cycle.

my week started horribly. sorry no details. bc if i start talkin bout the events that lead to that first sentence...i will get pissed off all over again. and i dont need that bc i think things are beginning to look up. i'll give u a clue...just when i needed it the most...i found the $10 i thought i lost this morning. yay!

lately i been thinkin a lot about my future. i've been in school a lot longer than i wanted to be. and i wont be done anytime soon. again, no details cuz it might make me cry. but, over the weekend i got a sudden burst of optimism. i pretty much mapped out my whole academic/work career between now and the end of grad school. makes me feel good. makes me wish time would go by even faster than it already is.

Then, i think about real life. like...my future outside of school and work. One thing u all might need to know about me is, my biggest goal in life...believe it or not...is to be a wife and mother. i want nothing more than to marry the love of my life and bear children that come to be perfect representations of our best attributes. i am not one of those "career women" (no offense of course) who prefers to reach a certain step on the corporate ladder b4 they decide to make a family. thats not how it works in my world. i do want to finish school and be a Neonatal Nurse Practitioner <----click the link)...and i WILL. but to me, it comes secondary. Yet...i MUST be smart about it. i know i am not ready for children yet because i do wanna reach a certain place in my education where i feel like i can take on such a big responsibility. but here's my thing: my initial plan was to wait til im done wit school to have my babies...but...what do i do when school is takin much longer than i anticipated?? do i keep putting it all on hold?? i mean...madd ppl go to school with children...if they can do it...why cant i? 

lemme stop ranting.

Why Why Why are females sweatin this female like this??? WTF is goin on?? Wuss wit all this I AM NICKI MINAJ sh*t (excuse my potty mouth)?! NO YOU ARE NOT NICKI MINAJ!! You are whatever-the-hell name ya birth certificate says!

Why cant people just BE THEMSELVES???

I had to put on my status: Sharieka Bryan really wish folks would get off Nicki Minaj's nuts

I hope not to offend anyone...but...frankly...i dont give a damn! People need to hear this! I got madd responses and everybody co-signin.

Please don't mistake this for hate...cuz this has nothin to to with Nicki Minaj as a person...im talkin about these dick-riders. I still dont understand why females be sweatin other females (Nicki Minaj, Rihanna, and Beyonce especially) When these ppl are human just like we are! Cuz God knows im startin to lightweight dislike these ppl solely based on these girls out here. Its ok to have role models...but this mess is just outta hand!

smh.

WTF...

Im sure this might be my most random update post ever...u love it!

This is like my 4th post for the day...and its only 9am! WTF? I know right...

Well, I been up all night...as I have for like the past 5 nights. It started Tuesday night while cramming for my first final. Not a good look. Cuz I was super tired during the test. Slept all day Wednesday then was up all night...thus beginning a very vicious cycle.

But screw what the calender says...my summer began Friday afternoon! NO more school for me till the fall...thank God, cuz im soo tired!

*sidebar*

Watchin Spongebob...never seen this episode. Squidward had surgery and got handsome!! LOL. I love this show!!

So...b4 my recent barage (sp?) of posts...I havent had a post in almost a month! Bad Rieka!! I also plan to post pix but...my computer hasn't been workin and I dont feel like puttin my digital camera software on my bf's laptop. School's over now. Got lazy. Dont trip...its only temporary.

My mom is doin fine...thanx for caring and praying. Yay, its mother's day! Gotta go hang out wit her today. Happy Mother's day to all the mommies that will feast their eyes on this blog! One time for one of my best friend's in the world...Robin...the mother of my God-babies Joshua (2) and Nia (1). I heart them :)

Friday was my bf and my 10 month monthi-versary! Yay! Almost to a year...cant wait.

I NEED a job for the summer. Gotta make dis bread, cuh!

Anyways...im sure there may be a million more posts for the day. I guess I been bottling up a lot in the past few weeks. Still gotta talk about the playoffs and why I love the NBA!

Stay tuned all day!

SNOW DAY!!!

I'm a couple days behind but...Monday was my Very First SNOW DAY!!!

Although I spent my 1st 4 years of life in Queens, NY...i grew up in Ft. Lauderdale, FL (throw them L's up!!). I have been in Atlanta for a lil over 2 years now...and this is the first time my classes were cancelled bc of snow! Its funny cuz today is Wednesday and its lightweight warm outside! I thought FL had weird weather patterns but ATL is worse! While the temp was in the 20s-30s last weekend, this weekend its supposed to be in the High 70s! Maybe a road trip to Savannah with the bf is in order...hmmm?

SWAG Talk

Man...im bout tired of these niggas wit all this damn SWAG talk! Like ok...we all know what swag means...to me...its the way one carries oneself. My definition is also backed up by the Urban dictionary.

But uhh...i personally feel that a persons swagger should be more SEEN than
HEARD about! All these random dudes talkin bout "my swag is this" and "my swag is that"!

Dont get me wrong...I appreciate the intro to the swagger music such as "Swagger Like Us" (I heart T.I.), etc...but this whole swagger movement is being blown WAY outta proportion!!

Everybody aint got swag!!! Damn!! Just cuz you know what the word mean and u like the damn song dont mean u got it!! And if u talk about it too damn much...ur automatically OFF the "i got swag list"!

point. blank. period.

So...I have an addiction...

to Victoria's Secret panties!!!! I mean...i couldnt be the only one! They are so pretty (namely VS PINK) I have a hard time goin thru the mall and walkin by the store without going in because they always seem to have some type of 5 for $25 sign...and one time they had up a 7 for $25 sign!! how could i possibly pass that up? I have a big drawer full of PINK panties of all colors and all styles...and it will continue...so freakin what?!

I'm not crazy but...

On Tuesday, January 20th 2009, during PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA's Inaguration coverage...i dozed off and took a nap. During that time i had a dream that Barack and I were like best friends!!! Dont laugh at me! The dream felt SUPER REAL!!! It was so detailed...he wasn't even wearing a suit when we hung out...just regular clothes! My brothers were there...my mom...my boyfriend...MICHELLE was there also...and she was cool as a fan! Long story short, i woke up pissed as hell when i realized it was merely a dream... :(

CONGRATULATIONS PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA

I knew we could make history happen...
