Throwback: Dream Street

Throwback: Dream Street

YA’LL THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A HAPPY BLOG. I AM HEARTBROKEN. I watched a TikTok of a girl flipping through her old CD binder and I saw Dream Street. I was SO SO excited this morning. I put them on our page and on our story and on Twitter and so many people said they loved them too. Then a few hours ago, TMZ reported that Chris Trousdale has passed away from COVID 19 at the age of 34. I had the biggest crush on him and I am so incredibly sad. Rest in peace and all of my love to not only his family, but the boys in Dream Street. Boo 2020.

 

Sidenote: not being able to google a clear image of them makes me feel SO OLD. Omg.

 

^ click that it’ll play you the whole album ♥

Raleigh: 8pm Curfew Starting TONIGHT

Raleigh: 8pm Curfew Starting TONIGHT

** UPDATE: Curfew was extended to Wednesday, 6/3, at 5 a.m.

Raleigh Mayor Mary-Ann Baldwin enacted a curfew that will begin tonight at 8 p.m. and continue through 5 a.m. Tuesday morning.

She issued the following statement:

As Mayor, the safety and security of the people of Raleigh are my top priorities. After two nights of violence and destruction, I have issued the State of Emergency and will impose a citywide curfew that will begin tonight at 8 p.m. and continue through 5 a.m. Tuesday morning.

By setting a curfew, my hope is that this will allow our community to pause, collect ourselves, begin to repair the damage, and turn our focus to the important work of finding connection and commonality. There are so many people hurting throughout this city, and we need to come together peacefully and as one community.

There is truth in the call for justice. For those who have protested peacefully, your voices are being heard and will always be welcome. The call for change can’t be answered, however, if we continue to allow the destruction of our property and attacks on our small businesses that have already been hurt by this as well as the impacts of COVID-19.

I have great hope for our community and believe in our people. Today, we must work together, as one, and use this as an opportunity to become better than we were before. One Raleigh for all people.

I Found My Soulmate?

I Found My Soulmate?

If you’re like me, and you spend an embarrassing amount of time on TikTok, by now you’ve seen the soulmate drawings. If you haven’t, let me explain…a “psychic artist” on Etsy will “draw your soulmate”. The only information they ask is your full name and birthday and in 24 HOURS they send you back a sketch of your soulmate. Insanity. Absolutely so stupid, but of course I did it for the blog. Essentially, I paid for it so you don’t have to! Hahaha

(Let me just say that I absolutely do believe in psychics and mediums and other people with greater intelligence and “powers”. I believe fully that some people do have the ability to see into the future, tell your fortune, speak to the dead, all of it. I do not, however, think that the person I gave 30 bucks to on Etsy has those powers, I just thought it would be some entertainment.)

So I gave them the money and waited for my email.

THIS is what they sent me…..

“The person revealed as being your soulmate is a man who ranks highest in conscientiousness, is efficient, well-organized, dependable and self-sufficient. He prefers to plan things in advance and aim for high achievement.

He is a man in constant search for greatness in all aspects of his life: he only listens to very good music, eats great food, loves with all his heart and he will fully commit only to his soulmate.

He likes to take his actions to an end and never leaves unfinished tasks.

 He loves cooking and food in general and has a fine taste when it comes to flavors. He is an excellent chef, if he wants. He will enjoy being in charge with this, when it comes to receiving friends and family.

 Your soulmate likes to have a flawless image. He will often take you shopping for a new shirt or a pair of pants. (*looks down at my ripped jeans as I type this*) He treasures how he looks in front of others.

 

Please be aware that opening the path for your drawing is the equivalent of turning the face of the universe to your soul. The information you received is confidential and you should not release to any other soul because the consequences could lead to an energy blockage of your aura and it will interfere with the connection between you and him. (WHOOPS LOL)

 

Right now, your vibration levels aren’t aligned and calibrated towards each other and it could take 9 months before you will meet each other.  (BOOOO)

If you want to learn more about how to calibrate your vibrations and accelerate the entire process, please check my eBook”

AND THEN THEY LINKED ME TO THEIR BOOK!! LOLLLLLLL SCAM ALERT.  And the moment we’ve all been waiting for, HERE is my soulmate drawing!

To me, he looks like Nick Bateman the Instagram model. But alright.

My review: scam…but a fun scam…but def a scam.
