KAMARI’S PLACE

Here's what I wrote in response to an assignment that asked me to describe a place that holds significant meaning in my life.

Rating: 3.5-4. This was a fun lighthearted read, full of adventure and thrill. The main characters were likable and endearing l, their banter and chemistry was top tier. Love them together I love that you can tell they really like each other as friends and lovers

Qualms I have with the lone wolf rhetoric

Women who inspire me to be that girl

I'm praying this feeling ends. But also embracing the process of being a human being with desires. In this episode I share my dissatisfaction with navigating dating and romance as a 20- something black woman. It's crazy but I going to remain hopeful that love is mine and I'll have it one day Lord willing.

Not me shooting my shot?! And not being good at basketball. But recognizing that I just started playing basketball for real. So I'm reminding myself to continue practice consistently to play confidently in the future. Doing all of that while exploring how the team I want to play for isn't picking me. While simultaneously acknowledging that I don't want to play for the team who's picking me. And navigating what the means, what that says, and what I should do about it all.

Book: Magnolia Parks Rating: 3.75/5 Content/Trigger Warning: Sexual content included (it's more fade to black but it's still there) Substance/drug use and abuse Cheating/Affair Toxic codependent relationship Overall: this book was entertaining heavy on the drama which was keeps you hooked but the romance is lack luster and subpar to say the least. Characters and plot are horrible nothing good to say other than the fact that the drama was entertaining and that I like Christian Bridget and Jonah. That's it that's all
