"My passion will be my profession!" This year, I have been making an intentional effort to have more confidence to venture out on my own. Ya'll know I'm hella awkward and never know what to do with my hands. Plus, I'm always afraid that someone is going to say something really funny. I snort while laughing, when something is really funny. Then everybody at the party will be like, "Unn, that tall girl with the afro over there snorting like a pig" and then they will point at me and laugh. Then they'll record me snorting and put in on Twitter and I'll run out of the party crying and will never have any friends. Welp! Luckily, none of that has happened. Last Friday, I had the pleasure of attending recording R&B looping artist, Taylor Mallory's "Take Control" album release party. Even though I went alone, I felt welcomed and was even able to meet and network with new folks. A lot of the people in attendance were my old friends...

"I wanna go out, but I don't want to be around a whole lot of people, but I wanna mingle and see new faces and I wanna hear good music but I don't wanna dance." If you're anything like me, an extroverted introvert, you appreciate a good night out minus all of the extra stuff like heels and crowds you can't move in. I wanted to bring in this past birthday as cool and chill as possible. You know, flats, cupcakes, a drink and a nap. Well, I started my weekend just the way I wanted to with the Specialty Cocktails + Urban Art Workshop! Yes, we was in there drinking and spray painting. What more can I ask for? Now, my first run in with spray paint was not a good one. Let me give ya'll a very quick story: Aight so boom... the year was 2009. I was out with some friends from school roaming the streets of Chicago at night. Keep in mind, I went to an art school so all of my friends were some sort of artists. The guys we were hanging with were sic...

"I'm so overwhelmed, I don't know where to start or what to do... so I just won't do anything." Have you ever been driving with your destination in mind, the excitement and anticipation of getting there slowly building up, only to realize that somewhere along the way, you've lost your sense of direction? So you pull over to the side of the road to re-focus, get your bearings straight and continue your journey. I don't know about ya'll, but I often have times like this in real life. I done had to talk to God like, "Aye Lord, pull this car (life) over, it feel like I'm bout to throw up." That being said, if you're wondering where I've been, I had to pull the car over and get my bearings straight for a minute. But, I'm back and pettier than ever! Here's what's been poppin' in the land of Aintbritfunny: On April 26, 2018, I hosted a really dope show for AFROTRAK at Subterranean in Chicago, IL. Headlining, was t...
