Not only poor people play mas

Every year new costumes, every year same comments. 

Why are people so upset with people that choose to save for their costume. How they choose to save is not your business. What people don't realize is people choose to buy expensive things because they can. When people buy new video games or shoes it's a matter of choice.
Back to carnival I choose to send £300 on my costume its my choice. To me i would pay whatever it is for experience of carnival.Its the most amazing time of the year, one of the biggest street party in London. Every band gives you plenty of options from t-shirt to a premium costume. 

 Some people I know personally they study their asses of  and their jobs pay well so they always wear premium costume. Band leaders don't say to look good get the most expensive one it's all a choice. Choose what you can afford. Stop blaming the band's for putting their amazing work of art on display, certain people can clearly afford. Some people actually have money to spend were they choose to spend it, it's up to them. For designer to see their design even bolder would be a plus. I look at the costumes and think amazing our people got skills. Not who is that for or they know people don't have money. Baby you don't have money. Just stay in your section. 

And yes mothers play mas to and yes they feed their kids, some choose to go on a holiday and others choose to play mass, some can do both it's their choice.
Mas over new Jordons any day.
Stop hating people that want to have fun, wait for the whole damn year for carnival, the biggest street party, our culture, we play mass because we can .

Mummy again...

Thank you God for allowing me to have a lovely healthy baby girl. I welcome my baby Robyn to this world on 25th of August... carnival weekend.
No one and nothing can prepare anyone for having a new baby, I am been told it easier this time round. Like really, seriously really ... I had it worst this time round. How you ask .. well .. I was sick for 9 months still vomiting to the week before I give birth. Don't believe the hype about giving birth it is hard and different for everyone and every child is different. I can wholeheartedly say this to the anyone that ask me would you do it again and I will say this, most definitely. I have amazing children and they mean the world to me having them has been my greatest achievement, seeing them grow has just made me as a mum just having that joy ànd unconditional love it's a blessing denied to some.
Some people need to understand because I had a bad experience it doesn't mean I don't want to have any more kids, it's totally different. Having kids brings joy, love, life etc. Pregnancy for me is hard, vomiting constantly, weak and 9 month's of staying home.
Why do the older folk always say to us... no more ....
I really want to say lady you don't babysit for me, you don't feed us, you don't have nothing to do with my life but it's ok to make such comment.
Thank you mum and dad for raising me to have manners. These old folks been running our lives for to long.
Congratulations to a few of my friends who just had babies I hope mummy and baby is doing well just one thing to say, I don't get offended if you don't invite me to baby birthday... trust me I know those things are expensive, i cant be buying presents for 9 babies. I will be sending love and light to you always.
Hope your experience of being a mum goes well and know I am always there for you.
To my lovely friend Lisa who called me as soon as she was told I was pregnant,  its means the world to me ... she was like I know how you get when you pregnant, if you need me let me know.

Any baby offers tell me all. ..
I am a proud mother to three amazing kids.
On a different note one of my neighbours was like I dident know you was pregnant. I was like it's because you was watching your business  ... why is she mad, that's a different topic for another day.

Stop calling everyone your friend

You just have to love people who are always there for you no matter what happen in life they the people who welcome you with open hands. I see people go through friends now like there is no tomorrow. How can you call yourself a friend but don't know what that person been going through for years, just because I share a plate of food with you that don't mean we are friends I am just good at sharing I was raised right. Stop calling everything one your friend because you know them or because you see them.  Fake friends start a conversation with .. Oh you know me now .... you know when you call someone and start creatising you .. put the phone down. The worst thing certain friends can do is listen to side of a story or is not open minded about others. Love the people who love you because they are forever gonna be in your life. Recently I've been going by this quote treat people the same way they treat you ... you will notice not many people will like it.  If they don't call you .. simple don't call them..
Stop sharing with people who don't want to share with you ..
Don't give people that don't give you ..,
Stop feeling sorry for people that don't feel sorry for you
Don't borrow of people that don't borrow from you
Stop supporting people that don't support you
Have you ever had someone tell you .. well you didn't t tell me ... why would someone tell you their business when you don't talk. Who the he'll call someone just to tell them their business when clearly you not interested. People open up when you show signs of you care, or you interested. I can honestly say the people I call my friends have never made me feel any different about our friendship.. sometimes we don't talk for months but day I call, it's like we finishing of our last conversation. Most times we meet up and have a laugh and drink. My family life is pretty busy so meeting with friends is just bliss and I appreciate the time we spend together. The moment I notice my friends are special .. you know the moment you very ill and a friends shows with with dinner for you and your kids. That's special.

The friends that shows up to drop your kids to school because they know what you going through... That's special
The friend that buys shopping for the week without you asking .. That's special
The friend that takes time off at work to be by your side ... to special
I have a few friends that sends me special presents when they know I am down ... That's friends that know I love flowers. That's special
I thank God for thosr6special friends because without them I would never know what true friendship is.
No I do not have many friends but the ones I have make me feel like it plenty.
Love and appreciate your true friends.
