4 Letters can encompass so much...


Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. Love does not demand its own way. Love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been wronged. It is never glad about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance. Love will last forever, but prophecy and speaking in unknown languages[fn3] and special knowledge will all disappear.

ReViEw: LupeFiasco_LupeFiasco'sTheCool....


The highly anticipated (at least by me and a few of my friends...lol) Lupe Fiasco's The Cool has finally hit the shelves and here is my take on the new album. Just on the beats alone the album sounds like a crossover album. It sounds really rockish...but i'm diggin it so far. I like the lyrics to Put You Game On i definitely felt there was some substance to what he was saying in the song especially to reference to our ancestry. Another song for your listening ears is Dumb It Down. Its interesting that he put this on the record because that's probably what everyone is telling him to do. I like that he doesn't do that and just let his creativity and his thoughts guides his music. So that's what's up I like this album...something new...really creative....A+ form Diana!!! =)

New Year....

I'm just realizing that people change...not really just realizing that but it just hit me on a personal level. You know how your moms tell you not to play with the stove but until you get burned you truly don't understand how much it hurts. My aunt told me the other day she was quoting Maya Angelou "if someone shows you who they are believe them." Sometimes you want to believe the best in people. You only want to see the positive in them but the truth is they are who they are. So this year I plan to see people for who they because I can't change them and be more careful about who I let in my inner circle. I just like to say that over all "07" was a good year there were some ups as well as downs but I an appreciate them all because from them a lesson was learned! I like to thank God for being good to me and for another year!
