Girl Friends


We all know the way the CW television series Girlfriends, was done wrong and unjustly. Why when it comes to the other shows they get a season finale, they get brought on talk shows, you get to see and hear the cast talk etc. When it comes to the black shows, they hardly ever get to go off air with a season finale. They just vanish into thin air, we don't hear about them anymore or we won' t see different members of the cast until a movie or something comes out. I came across this petition thats going on, for those of you who haven't heard about it, you can go to the website and sign so that Girlfriends can at least get a season finale. I already put my vote in and those who watched Girlfriends should do the same, even if you didn't watch them but you know it's wrong sign the petition.

Show Recap pt. 2

So this season of ANTM will be over very shortly. Two girls went home, one by choice and the other by elimination. It made me mad at the girl who chose to go home. Someone else should have gotten her spot. I knew from the first episode they shouldn't have picked her. She didn't have a clue. And how about the new show girlicious? I don't even look at it, that Robin chick is definitely not good with managing groups look at the Pussy Cat Dolls......And what ever happen to that Asia chick who was suppose to be apart of the group? I know thats last year but I had to bring it up. The show I'm definitely in love with is Gone Country, and I've recently became obsessed with Trick my Truck. Sorry, and in the words of Carnie from Gone Country "Eh eh ,pressure pressure" that just did not fit anywhere into this post. But because it's mine I usually let the unusual slide. Good day y'all!

Show Recap

Okay, A raisin in the sun was a very good movie. I am so ready for these new shows to start coming on I don't know what to do. Ice and Rayna on the Flavor of Love got sent home and they should have. One thing about Ice though she was real, she told them from the beginning what she was, she know she was wrong for doing radio interviews at the house though that was ghetto. She made her self look low by saying she would sleep with Flav if she had to. Tsk, tsk, tsk girl have you NO class!? the house snitch is Shy. Then Ice sat on national elevision and said it loud and proud I like black guys but Flav ain't that attractive. She didn't lie about that, and a lot of the girls I believe feel that way, they all want there shine they don't want Flav. You see? I am to caught up in this ghetto show! I'm out.

The 80's




The 80's is making a big major comeback. As a matter of fact it already has. but for some reason I just keep thinking about the show Save By The Bell, well that was a show in the 80's and here are a few other things that was in the 80's to.
Big Hair, spiked, hiked majorly teased and pulled to the side.
Let's not forget the leg warmer's, worn over shoes or jeans and along with the work out gear a lot of people use to wear. And the fingerless gloves, I remember my mom wearing the big hair and the leg warmers. A LOT! well that's it for now.

Happy late V-day!

Hope everyone's Valentine was sweet, full of surprises and all that mushy stuff. :)Being as that I'm single, I watched weddings and Barbara Streisand movie's all night long. They brought back memories from being a child. My mom was into those kind of movies,like Funny Girl, West Side Story, Breakfast at Tiffany's, and she loved loved Marilyn Monroe flicks and my sister and I did too. Well I bought myself some chocolates, and sweet little card all to me, from me. I have no shame in my singleness, it was a nice lonely day. So here's a late Valentine to you all out there. Because I know i'm not the only one that's late either.

The strike is coming to an end.....

Good news! the writer's guild strike will be coming to an end soon, thank goodness now I can get back on schedule with the regularly scheduled shows! A few of the shows that I know are coming back for sure are The Game, big kudos. Grey's Anatomy, Ugly Betty, and then there are the others like the new shows that had came out, oh and I can not forget Brothers and Sisters I love that show too. On some other stuff though I heard that Girlfriends was canceled. I think that they should at least let them finish out this season and then not bring them back if they are being canceled. I had a feeling they were on the verge of that, the story lines just weren't all that pull you in and keep you glued to the screen type of thing. Until next time.....

Flava Flav!

The third season premiere of Flavor of Love hit the television sets last night, I must say the women this season aren't all that attractive, this is a rough group, we'll see if their going to be just as wild, classless and dramatic as the ladies from the last two seasons. Isn't it wrong how he sent all the chicks from the internet home? I thought why even go through the trouble of telling them they've won bringing them on the show, just a big guilt trip if you ask me. He talks about how he's once again looking for the love of his life and someone who doesn't mind all his kids, he doesn't want the drama again, but thats exactly what hes going to get with a house full of women. The true love far as i'm concerned was New York if you asked me, my sister and I agreed that she really did or she seemed she really did want him for who he was not for his money. Personally I think he just likes to get his freak on, so it's just another season of him getting some between the sheets, and the show will be doing guest appearances from a few of the ladies from last season's show. Wow, I get a kick out of these chicks.

Grammylicious

The Grammy's was a good one. Opening with Rihanna and old school group The Time, who also won her first grammy for her hit single "Umbrella". Followed by a smash performance with Tina Turner and Beyonce singing "Proud Mary" they rocked the stage, it was very entertaining Beyonce had the moves down, but we all know Tina is one of the originals when it comes to the moves. Kanye West received his grammy and as always his ego got in the way stating " I told Common not to drop his album the time as me, this is my award." The music started playing to cut Kanye off when he began talking about his mother he stated again that " It would be in good taste to stop the music." The crowed agreed in a light applause so the music stopped he continued and was off the stage. Country singer Vince Gill won a Grammy for one of his songs, it was given to him by one of the Beetles when he received the award he stated " Wow a beetle gave me my award, ever have that happen to you Kanye?" the crowed gave a response and Kanye just gave a smile. Good come back, maybe that toned his ego down a bit. umm I don't think so! And when Usher and Quincy Jones read the nominations before presenting the winner Usher made a statement saying " There are no losers in this category Kanye." which got another response from the audience. Turns out this category was for album of the year which Kanye did not get. And saving the best for last Amy Winehouse was given five Grammy's and performed in London via satellite. It was said something was wrong with her Visa, her performance was very good but she looked a tad unstable, glad to hear she is in rehab and hopefully things will look up for her, she was in utter shock when she won her Grammy, she paused for a minute collapsed into her band members crying and gave her props to London,her husband Black who is incarcerated, ray ray her mom, dad and some others. Tonight was her night. Oh and I forgot to mention that I loved Kanye's performance the glow in the dark shades and vest, hot I'd def rock that.

WHAT The Fugg!

Okay, so I was looking at t.v. yesterday and Paris Hilton is suppose to be going to Harvard? this is all a big joke. She's only in because she's Paris Hilton! I don't know her personally so I really can't judge her, but she doesn't even act like she has Harvard brains! what about the regular everyday people who have to bust their butts just to get to a school like that. These celeb kids are getting fame off their parent's, at least the Simmons girls do get out and try to do something, even though it comes very easily to them. But still Paris in Harvard? makes no sense, so they asked a couple of the student's that attend and a few said it would be cool because they liked Paris, and then their were some who thought it was just stupid. I'll give her her props after she's stayed in school for two or four years and has gotten a degree and graduated. I'm out.

Lost in found(ation)



There's a new type of foundation in town. It comes in a cute little aluminum bottle. All you do is turn the dial to adjust the shade from lighter to darker, the formula is suppose to blend into your skin for a natural, flawless look. I'm just wondering is it just another foundation on the market out to get our money,or does it actually work?

My I can and you can do it, Victory speech!

I know i've been gone for quite some time now without giving warning to my readers. And I am very sorry, that's really unblogfessional (unprofessional). But I've been doing so much lately that I really almost lost myself. I love my blog I'm proud of it whether I have few fans or no fans. it's like a little show case of my accomplishment, I haven't communicated with anybody lately and that's not cool either. Maybe it was depression? I don't know but it's 2008 now and The Chocolate Apple is not going to sit around moping around and crying in my sorrows, I've got bigger fish to catch and fry, So there is going to be a change and I mean it. I'm going to get back on my regular grind, this time when I stand up I'm not going to sit down. I'm not going to let the days and life just pass me by, then i'll wake up one day regretting what I didn't do, or I wanted to do because somebody thought it wasn't a good idea, I want to wake up at least knowing that even if I did't make it I tried. And that's all that matters. Some people may be shocked my some of my decisions, or tell me i'm going down the wrong path I don't know. But if you don't have anything nice to tell me or at least something encouraging then don't say it at all, and i'm sure it's others out there that feel the same way. If you feel i' making a mistake pull me to the side and say, even though i don't agree with what your doing go out there and be safe, give it all you've got. And if you don't make it at least you tried and made an effort. So i'm just telling all me fellow Chocolate Apples out there it's 2008 now, it's time for a change what ever you wanted to do and you felt you couldn't , or someone told you you couldn't , don't believe it only YOU know what YOU are capable of and what YOU can do! so get yourself out there and make it happen, don't be afraid of falling down. I know I won't.
That's the Juice!
