Yeah y'all, Haiti is still a mess & we here at black2afrika.com don't hear US as BLAK folk talkin about this anymore. All we can do is meditate on they fate & know that their fate is in their own hands. They are SURVIVORS & only the strong SURVIVE. They gonna be alrite & with that we get BLAK to our program.
Y'all see me rite? I'm here in cyberspace & some of y'all feel me whether you love or hate me. I see y'all too. I see y'all drivin down the street with y'all loud stereos playin hiphop, reggae & old soul. I see my lil bro's out there saggin they pants & I've gotten so used to it, it don't even piss me off anymore. That ain't gonna change Racist White Supremacy one bit. I see y'all in the stores buying Malt Liquor which is not beer, it's MALT LIQUOR! I see y'all raising your families & goin to church on Sundays. I smell that fried chicken after. I see us movin fast to beats synchopated by the best producers. Some might call it dancin. I see us dreamin to be free but not knowing how to do it. Let me show y'all for a small fee. Just kidding. I see us striving to learn this computer shit as we move on in the 2010's & beyond & like a phone, you better know how to use it. Technology is a MOTHER!I see us re-training & gearin up to do this final takeover but if I get too deep, y'all won't read me. FUCK IT! I see where we at now as WE walk in these cities & country towns, quite aimlessly as THEY JOBS is for OUR WOMEN, as we wait for the next thing to happen. Unfortunately, some of us ain't gonna make it but in the meanwhile, don't give UP! I see us still insisting on eating almost exclusively, dead rotten foods. I see us trying to also live these fake religions out but y'all don't fool me. I see how I used to think that strength was good but now I know that the meek & INTELLIGENT shall inherit the HEAVENS because that's what the world is in it's proper dispensation. Imagine eatin from your own or your neighbors garden? Imagine workin without pay, for the benefit of your people, ALL OF THEM? I see you still conniving your way thru life but I won't do that & will expose you if you are obviously harmful or disrespectful to OUR PEOPLE. I see THEM having THEIR last days of glory & not a care in the world as I wish for 2 months of straight sunlight. We see but we don't have eyes so if I knocked your eyes out, I would tell you to look for them. You see me & see what you see or do you? I see you & don't allow you to see me fully because maybe I'm looking at me thru you. Confusin, ain't it? I see you as I stalk you hopin you doing the right thing. Oh shit, that's my own shadow. I see the book I'm reading now & the name is GOODPUSSY! It's a bit dated but still very appropriate. I have sailed the 7 SEAS & see it for what it is. I see a SEA CHANGE. I see that we lost 2 heavyweight icons in the struggle named Dorothy Height & Benjamin Hooks. I see that they need heirs to that throne & wish to see who will as Bomani always says, step they game up. I see that lately, I can't be bothered as I have a life to live & have to just do me for what I want, how & when I want it. I see that collectivism in this day & age with Blak Folks is nearly impossible. I see that the lowest BLAK MAN exhibits qualities of God wherever he may be but does he himself believe that? Do you see me? Don't look too hard because I may be closer than you think, just like the mirror on your car says. I see the coming of the promised land like Martin said some years ago. Its in your bible after the book of Revelations, the Blaksmith Version. I see Uncle Bill smiling on me sayin, do what you came to do & see you when you get blak2afrika. That last 1 was for me only but do you SEE it? Keep on seein & keep on LIVING!

Mommy Moments---BLUE
This was taken recently during the organization here in our community called the ' Kodomo Kai ' ( child upbringing society ) and was invited to participate to join the parade for a Sakura Matsuri ( Cherry Blossom Festival ). It was our first time to join like that ( here in our place, each of the kids in primary is opt to join a kodomo kai, I don't know for some other places ) The kids wore blue happi coats ( usually used for festivals ) and some castanets and bells in hands to make a sound as they parade and a group of more or less 50 ( kids and adult ) participated during the 2 hours parade around the city. We stopped over on a nearby park for a rest and hanami ( cherry blossom viewing ) drink and then go. During our last stop over, the kids had a group picture and was given a bag full of snacks and juices and then headed home. Wakaba and Haruka had a lot of fun during the interval rests coz they were able to play at the park for awhile with some other kids. Another new experience for my kids!!^_^

Girl's Talk--Last Time I Pigged Out
---Pigging out also means supplying alcohol drinks into my system, Nama Shibori Kiwi Sour---The last time I pigged out was going into a Yakiniku restaurant ( again! ) for two consecutive weeks in a month--our family usually goes out for yakiniku treats ( top notch quality and pricey meats ) at Za-Za once a month but this time we went to Gyu-Kaku twice coz there was a campaign goin' on there and it's still running up to May 5, 2010 ( to all my friends in Japan, don't miss and grab the chance until Golden Week! ) We ordered pitoro, miso harami, kalbi, horumon, oxtongue, veggies, etc ( sorry, didn't had the chance to picture all the food coz there's a lot of people around us and the seat wasn't private) but I've only had 2 glass of mixed drinks--nama shibori kiwi sour and nama shibori grapefruits sour (nama -shibori shochu based ( distilled drinks )) and of course, a heavy drinker like me doesn't end there...we went to the nearest convenience store and bought some beer and popcorn and extended the party at home! It's hard to have a drink outside then you have kids saying ' Ni hai made dake da yo!' ( limit of two alcohol drinks only )LOL!
Wanna share your pigging out story??

Couple's Corner--We're The Best Of Friends
We have been blissfully married for 8 years now and we love to kid each other. We both love teasing each other, doing silly things and when we're both happy, the time just flies by! It's like ' Hey! Take my bra off your head! You're not Ultraman! ( said to him as he marched around the room and posed like Ultraman, with my bra on his face lol! ) everyday! Or in the middle of our badminton game outdoor, he would suddenly pose like 'Goku powering' ( of Dragonball ) and shouts KameHameHaa!! of course, our game will be over and me, a loser. I was ready with my hands to thrust forward, full with energy but then , he would shout ' Hey! Someone's doing kamehameha! Believing a powerful beam of energy would come out to her hands! ( Baka da neeh!! ) LOL! If you're into animes, imagine us like that!\(^0^)/
I wouldn't trade my relationship with my husband for anything! ( well, maybe except F1 driver Jenson Button would trash model Jessica for me!LOL! )

Separation Anxiety
---I' m all alone--- No, not my kids but me lol! I have been suffering from ' blues ' on their first day of school until today... I didn't take it seriously when Haruka asked me a question--after dropping her at school, I proceeded to the supermarket to do my groceries but then I became sad--I dunno why... I should be happy coz I can go on with my groceries smoothly without getting worried of her whereabouts ( palagi cyang nawawala lol! ) but there's something missing.... THERE'S NO MAKULIT BY MY SIDE!!(T_T)
My husband and I talked about me being alone at the house before the school started--that I can do now a lot of stuffs online because they're both in school already (and I have all the time ALONE ), or maybe start a new hobby, lunch date with him, etc, etc...I should be happy... but it's soo tsumaranai ( boring ) of being alone. Well, I guess masasanay din ako someday...
PBW---Walking Along Sakura Views
The amazing sakura or cherry blossoms is now peak bloom at our place!! Our family had a stroll around the paradise bursting with blossoms!! It was a spectacular day for hanami ( cherry blossom viewing ) and although the full bloom was a lil bit late and the weather was bad lately( windy and rainy ) and now the sunshine has come out, we don't want to miss the hanami! We went out to get a glimpse of the sakura blooming at it's glory! The sakura trees are in gorgeous peak and the views are breathtaking! I find serenity and peacefulness looking at these beautiful cherry blossoms! ( Click the photos for bigger views--thanks! )

Food Trip Friday---Mister Donut
---Enjoying Mister Donut at home, Baked Puff Choco&Whip, Angel French Chocola, French Cruller and Rich Donuts Bitter Choco---Going to Mister Donuts is definetely my ME time! Good thing that Mister Donuts is just near to my kids school, it's my favorite place to go whenever their school is on a half day, I could wait for them there while having a morning break and or after PTA meetings with some of the mums. We love to use the word ' Misudo ikanai?' for a coffee break. Love talking to mums while having our Mister Donuts morning set, very light on the budget and you can have some 'okawari' refill hot coffee and or hot cafe au lait as many as you want. My all time favorite is the ' Pon De Ring' varieties, they have the ' mochi -like-chewy ' texture and Bitter Choco. Bitter Choco is not that sweet donuts and has a dark choco filling in the inside and has a bitter cocoa powder in the outside. I can only eat 2 doughnuts in one sitting and 2 cups of hot cafe au lait. I love Mister Donut because of the texture, it so light and not soo overly sweetened, a lot of doughnuts and other baked goods to choose from and I also love to get points to get free cutie collectables from them!

Mommy Moments--Red
I' d like to share our Christmas fun last year which I didn't had a chance to post here at Kizuna and I think it's perfect for Mommy Moments theme coz a lot of color RED everywhere! We went to Sendai to watch Sendai Motorshow 2009 in Miyagi then we went on malling at Mitsui Outlet Park after. We love it there coz there's a Ferris Wheel where you can see the panoramic views of Sendai Port, then an attractive restaurants which offers selection of foodies, brand shops, etc.. And since it was Christmas time, we enjoyed ourselves there, the kids had a lot of fun, we did some window shopping and we also bought some gifts there. The colourful lights illumination during the night was amazing! Here' s some of the photos--enjoy!!
