'ILY FOREVER' Recap

WARNING: I'm about to go in and freely write....spelling, grammar and syntax are out the door right now, sorry grammar police. 

I would have hated to leave for New York without seeing and saying goodbye to some of my greatest friends, mentors, and supporters. If you know me you know I love people, especially my people. In preparation for my transition, I unknowingly found myself distant from a lot of people that I loved and held near and dear to my heart. I found myself out of the "loop" and off of the "scene" unless it involved my work, although my work is low key the "scene" sometimes lol. 

I am such a perfectionist and go-getter that I tend to block everyone and everything out to accomplish my goals (working on it). To those who don't understand me, it might come off as me being "distant" or being a "flake" when I don't show up to things that I normally would have. Truth is, I really had to lock in if I wanted to reach my fullest potential and do everything that I knew I could do and that I had set out in my heart to do. Nothing against anyone but the past year or two has been all about me zoning in and figuring myself and my path out. 

I am an avoidant and procrastinator, mix that with perfectionism and you get a hot late ass mess sometimes (working on it). I suck at texting and picking up phone calls, (working on it lol), but trust me if I've ever called you a friend, I love you and I'm still here. Hit a playa up. 

Any who...I'm rambling lol but I knew I wanted to have one last hoo-rah before I left just to see everyones face and remind them how much they mean to me. So, last minute (literally a week or two before the event LORDT) I decided to throw a cocktail hour to celebrate my move. Since I never had an "official" launch for 'Pennie For Your Thoughts' I incorporated that as well.

Side Bar: Pennie For Your Thoughts is a multidimensional platform that instills empathy, humanity, and psychology in media and through the entertainment industry. 

Yea...so, I put together a last minute shindiggity called "ILY FOREVER " aka "I Love You Forever". I love Houston and the people I have met during my life long time in Houston, forevaaa *Cardi B Voice*. No matter where the world takes me, I FUCKING LOVE YOU. I want to thank everyone who came even though I literally text you all a couple of days before. 

Being a quote on quote well known and connected person can get estranged. Figuring out who is truly for you vs. who just rocks with you because everyone else does or because you can do something for them will forever be an on going battle. I realize more and more everyday who is in my corner for the right reasons. 

Here are some photo's from the event. It was open bar and we most definitely got faded AF lol. Thank me because I spared most of ya'll and didn't post some photos cause y'all had those twisted eyes lol. Thank you to Ella for letting me use CrumbVille, go and get your sweet tooth fix from there if you're ever in Houston. Thank you to Russell for bartending and thank you to Lyssa, Faye, and Yusef for putting up with my CRAZY ASS. 

ALSO, shoutout to everyone who came to the after party that was thrown by me, Blake Campbell, and DJ Youngstreetz. We had way too much fun, I barely remember it lol but what I for sure remember is the love and energy. THANK YOU. I'm done...lol 

xoxo,
