Floor Seats versus regular seats

Okay so I came to the conclusion that floor seats are wonderful and everything but if i do not have a great view of the entertainment then it is not worth it. I mean if u are on the floor and have a huge pole in your face and everyone continues to walk in front of you and obstruct your view then what is the point. Do not get me wrong I love being up close on the event but i also like my view to be nice. So floor seats are just as good as regular seats. Because the perks of being real close to event is exceptional! But make sure you have a decent view of the show.

Just class

I want to get something out of the classes that I'm taking in school (college) but I feel like it's going in one ear and out the other. I want to learn things that will benefit me and my career aspirations

Story of My life and Inspirations

 

Picture #1

This photograph is of my younger brother Spencer Jones and I. This was taken at my father’s family reunion this past summer in Columbus Ohio. The photographer definitely captured more than my brother and I but our personalities too. At eleven, my brother favors me in many ways. His eyes are hazel like our grandmother’s, his nose like our mother’s, and his mouth, are similar to mine. We are also the same skin tone. The only physical difference is that he is boy and seven years younger than me. From this photograph you can see that I am definitely the girly-girl, feminine, athletic, and wise. My brother shows off his humorous nature, his adolescence, and also his wit. Our distance from each other shows that we are the true definition of siblings. We have are disagreements but we are the literal genetic make-up of both our parents Joyce and Christian. We stand out the most because we crave to be the center of attention through out the day.. This picture also shows the stage of growth we are in. I am leaving my teenage years and slowly entering my adulthood, while my brother is entering his junior high years. My brother and I have a bond that no other person could dare to understand. Being in Iowa this long has made me truly miss him.

 

Picture #2

This is a photograph from my senior year scrapbook. This is a picture of my late best friend Ta’keisha Jackson and I on the night of my Senior Year Grammy Mock Elections. I was accompanied that night by an angel. This photograph is one of the last pictures I have of her and I. Ta’keisha passed away in a house fire this past April exactly ten days from her birthday on April 12^th. Every time I lay my eyes on this picture I fight back tears because I know I will never share another moment like this with her. Ta’keisha was truly a special person. Her death made her a hero. She died from the injuries she received while attempting  to save her younger sister in the house fire. I still remember the last time I spoke to her in person, which was during Christmas Break last year. She passed away while I was still in Iowa so I had no way of attending the funeral. This summer however I did spend quite a bit of tie in the cemetery paying my respects. Although Ta’keisha is no longer on Earth with me, I can still feel her presence every time the sun shines during the day.

 

Picture #3

This is a picture of the AIB Women’s Basketball team from last year. In this photograph you have Bailey Boswell, Alyssa Muntz, Arriel Hunter, Hannah Redinus, Katira Young, and myself. We were preparing to play in a basketball game in are home gym in the Activity Center. As you can see we were listening to the “Star Spangled Banner” being played through the speakers. Everyone was preparing for it to be a good game. I remember that this was a game that we did win. During this season we had a different coach, Coach Keith Coleman. He was a marine major. So everything that we did in basketball resembled that of the military. We were standing proudly with one hand over our chests and the other behind our backs. This was a clear sign of respect for our nation’s flag and also because it was mandatory according to our coach. We were wearing our home jersey’s which were white with our previous eagles logo with matching warm-ups. The clock in the background symbolized how much time we have on the clock before half-time to start out on a winning streak. The spectators also in the background symbolized belief that we would do well in the game. Unfortunately one of our team mates, (KAtira young) is not dressed. She could not participate in this game for personal reasons.

Picture #4

This is a picture of the pop singer Rihanna performing at the 2010 Kids Choice Awards. Rihanna is one of my favorite artists. She is also my idol. Many people say I look like her. However we do share different features. In this photograph you can see her choice in a performance prop was that of a robot. Rihanna likes to be animated when she performs. So to entertain children she chose an appropriate item to have on stage. She was performing her smash hit songs, “ Hard”, “Rudeboy”, and “Don’t stop the music”. Rihanna has a great way of capturing her audience’s attention, in this case children. Although some of her previous stage presences were not fitting for children, you can see by the too-too styled skirt-dress that she was doing her best to appeal  to a younger crowd but not seem so childish. According to source the audience seemed extremely entertain by her performace.

 

Picture #5

This is a photograph of the RNB diva, Beyonce. In this picture she is in the middle of recording her video for her smash hit song, “Crazy In Love”. This video became so popular that it was named, Song of the decade, in 2009. Beyonce, is more than a singer. She is an entertainer, entrepreneur, mother, idol, dancer, performer, actress, fashion designer, and down-to-earth southern girl. She is married to one of the richest men on the planet, Jay-Z. Together they are an unstoppable, dynamic duo. It just so happens that he performed along side of her in this video, and several others. Beyonce is a very charming and talented women. Women across the globe admire her style, originality, ambition, and drive to encourage women that it is okay to embrace your natural beauty and embrace your bodily curves. With her hip shaking, feet tapping songs, everyone can enjoy her music. She incorporates several different styles of music in her own. In the studio she is known as just Beyonce or Bey, But when she takes center stage during award shows, or even at her own concerts she is phenominal and her fans crave for more. Although this woman began in a small girls group she has evolved in to an unstoppable entertaining sensation. Now she is more commonly known to the world as the one and only, Queen Bey. Other female artists are constantly getting compared to her, because they have been given the task to exceed her success. But with Beyonce still taking center stage, this task may be impossible.

Friends (Need them or want them)

I've always been an independent person. I never really needed to be around people, however, I am human and I never mind being around people that are not negative. i hang out more with guys because they are less dramatic and are more entertaining in some ways. I have females that I consider friends but due to dramtic circumstances id rather limit my choices. Girls have a way of getting under one's skin and So, friends are an accessory not a necessity

Best of Me

I swear boys are my weakness. i cannot be in a place for a long time without seeing some one of the opposite sex. I love the sweat, the ambition, the determination, and hidden truth behind their eyes. I love the abs, and tattoos. i love the athleticism, the intelligence and the will to make things better when they know they were wrong. I love it when they make the transition from being little boys to grown successful men. I love the chase they give us females when they know that we worship the ground that they walk on. I love the late night phone conversations that make their voices low but never dry. There are times when my cravings for men go a little too far. I sometimes turn my personal space into an elastic rubber band. just to see how long I can last before I snap.

Say My name

You just met me
Know absoutely nothing abut me
Yet the first thing you say is
Bae
Baby
Sweetie
Sweetheart
Sexy
Ma
or other names that do not relate to me in anyway shape or form. My name is Christen , a name my mother and father gave me at birth. None of those names begin with a "C" or have anything to do with me. I know that I am beautiful, and built in the right placesbut that does not mean that I except those terms. If you want my heart, Learn my name.

Maybe Its me

Maybe its the way that I am
Maybe its my voice
Maybe its my smile
Maybe its because they give an inch and I always give a mile
Maybe Im too caring
Or Caring for those who dont need it
Maybe I respect those who didnt earn it
I try and try to remind myself that the worst is yet to come and
Maybe I am too young
But I thought i was old enought to understand that love doesnt happen over night
That like a seed it takes time to grow and blossom over time
And Yes even roses wilt but with water and sun light it will stand strong
Even then how will i know where i belong
Who is the worthy one that deserves my love and trust.
Should I throw it all away and gain it from lust
My body is a temple is says in the Great Book
but so many people know, come take a look
