Script My Life: Honey 2

Hmm. I've lost my mojo... 



Haven't felt like writing of late.(Haha,who cares!)*rolling eyes*. Muse ain't amusing. (Delivering negative vibes). And someone said to me, 'He's a somebody; and you are a nobody!'. Wow! (And I died a little more inside).

Script my life:Honey 2.

A sequel to Honey,a dance movie which starred Jessica Alba; this time it actually stars some real dancers including J.Lo's squeeze, Casper Smart, choreographers Laurien Gibson, Christopher 'War' Martinez,and Rosero McCoy, (who choreographed most of the dances in the movie).

Troubled 17-year old Maria Bennet, has been released from juvenile hall,and is placed under the custody of legendary, Honey Daniels' mother, Connie. Maria is given a second chance to straighten her ways. She decides to get a job at a local store,owned by Mr Kapoor. Her love for dance is revived when she is asked by Brandon to train his dance crew.the HDs. Her ex-boyfriend,Luis ,leader of her former crew,(and winners of a dancing contest)also takes interest,and wants her back with his crew.

Maria works hard to prove herself,and also outdo sleazy Luis.She manages to get the HDs through to the finals of the television dance competition, 'Dance Battle zone', (hosted by cutie Mario Lopez). And they win. Beating the 718s. (To Luis' bruised ego.) It sucks when 'kings' are 'dethroned' from their thrones. (Your 'highness').

I'm Maria,with everything except juvie,and Luis is not an ex-boyfriend.'You know what.You are not motivated.'-Connie Daniels.(Sounds like my uncle.).Bless him!My uncle always 'pushes' me to think the best of myself,and that I am truly a talented individual.(But I underestimate myself a lot).He says I lack confidence,which is bad.

Well,if you are told that you are nobody,in comparison to someone else,whom you could equally share the same amount of talent,passion and maybe even vision,it kind of sucks!Maria and Luis come from the Bronx.They want to make something out of themselves,and get off the streets. They both love, actually have a passion for DANCE.

My uncle is always saying, 'Never compare yourself to anybody else. You are special!'. (Sounds like Obama's campaign slogan, 'Yes,I Can!' With all due respect).Yes,I have so much to prove, especially to myself. I so much want to be like my inspirations. And I do love pushing my limits,and doing what I love. (But I hate being 'boxed'). I believe in being 'mentored', and being open to learning new things, because I believe that talent doesn't always know everything. I believe that for as long as I have not tried it, I'm good at it. (Until I suck at it)

So what is my objective? Like Maria,to do what I love doing. To have an opportunity to prove myself. I'm not out to 'dethrone' assumed 'kings'. This kingdom is big enough for us all, including a 'Queen' in the making. Maybe we all share the same vision,passion and our talents spread us wide.

Yes he is a somebody, and I respect that, regardless, (even Maria knew who Luis is), but I am not a nobody. Nor a wannabe. I'm here for the long run. And it is not just for me.It is my legacy. Just like Honey Daniels had her dance academy; Maria won the 'Dance Battle zone', so will I have something far greater than my MPV. This is just the beginning....

After writing this I'm actually motivated.Script my life.Honey 2.

P.S: Always write your own love story.

Ciao!

Baa baa Black Sheep

‘Baa baa black sheep have you any wool? Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full One for the master, One for the dame, One for the little boy who lives down the lane.”-Baa baa Black Sheep, Nursery Rhyme Oh how I loved nursery school! Learning was so much fun and colourful as the teachers taught using music, visuals and lots of play and let’s not forget nap time! Gosh! (I stare into a blank space with so much nostalgia). Hmm, question! Is there more to life than trying to constantly fit into other people’s moulds? Are my imperfections so great that those around are blinded to the planks to the planks in their own eyes? Or maybe I am just not appropriately in the right place? At one point or another, we all have faced identity issues, or have suffered from the ‘I don’t fit in’ syndrome. The worst time is the puberty-adolescent period. As an individual, one tries to live up to expectations from parents, teachers, peers and society at large. During that same period, an ...

Dirty Laundry Diaries: The Journey

My Beloved Mr. X   Dear Mr. X  You told me about this journey, a journey you embarked on, hoped that it would go on. You got into your car and you drove and she was on the passenger side; you headed for your destination. But the car broke down, the tyre went flat, and you both couldn't agree. You told her to wait, whilst you fixed the car, but she went on the other side of the road to catch another ride. Someone should have said, slow down, you will crash, and you will drive off the hill. Slow, you will burn; you will hit the wall.  Slow down, because you were an accident waiting to happen, or maybe a car going nowhere. Slow down; think about it before you take this journey. I was waiting on the highway, hoping to hitch a ride. Then you stopped your car, you smiled at me and your eyes seemed so kind. You opened the door and said let’s go, so I jumped right in and sat on the passenger’s side. It felt so right for you and me to be on this journey, actually, I though...

Script My Life: Love By the 10th Date

Finding love shouldn’t be a duty but it should be a journey that you enjoy the ride while you get to it... I don’t remember when was the last time I related to a number of female characters in one movie. I finally watched Lifetime movie ‘Love By the 10th Date’.  The trailer to the movie, written and directed by Nzingha Stewart, enticed me for a good chick flick...about women of colour. The all star cast includes the gorgeous Kelly Rowland, Meagan Good, Keri Hilson and Kellee Smith. We also see Cat Deely, Joshua T Jackson, Andra Fuller and UnReal’s Jeffrey Bowyer-Chapman. The story line follows a group of young, successful black friends who work for a high end, digital magazine Nina. The protagonist is Gabrielle Fateful a.k.a Gabby played by Meagan Good. Gabby is a graphic designer at Nina whose love life is an actual struggle. The scene that kickstarts the plot of the movie is when Gabby goes out for dinner with friends and workmates, Margot (Kelly Rowland), Bi...

Single Ladies: The Metrosexual

*Riding on a black horse* (I wish).* Beyoncé  wave* 'Hey single ladies!'. For a lady on a quest, the horse would have been ideal,right? Anyway ,how have y'all been? I hope the lessons that we are going through are helping us build character. (Wifen material). Today we have yet another bachelor under our radar. So we have so far, gone through our potential Mr Put-A-Ring-On-It who has been bachelor; the widower, the divorcee, the foreigner, the boy and last but not least, the single dad. Not so bad ladies. Now bachelor number six is,the metrosexual. Now why should we place such a man on our panel,you ask? Well,he is my personal favourite *wink*. The anatomy of a metrosexual. By definition a metrosexual is an urban man with a disposable income who spends a lot on his appearances. In other words, a guy's guy who is in touch with his inner pink. Now why would a metrosexual be a good candidate for Mr Put-A-Ring-On-It? He is not. Most metrosexual men, if not gay, or...
