FaceBook IS Addicting

I've heard other people mention how addicting Facebook can be, but thought they were just exaggerating. Well they sure were not lying about that! LOL!

What Am I Listening To? - St. Lunatics

Posted by IcePrincess at 12:58 PM 0 comments
I've always loved the St. Lunatics, and I'm so glad to see them back out. Their new song is FIIIRREEE! Can't stop listening to it. They are bringing back real Hip Hop in my opinion. It is sorely needed right now. Each verse in the song is great, but my most favorite verses are from City Spud, Murphy Lee, and Nelly. Check out the official video for the song below.

My Creative Work I've Done

Posted by IcePrincess at 2:20 PM 0 comments
I will be posting all of my artwork (drawings, graphic designs, sculpting, etc.) and my creative writing stories (short and long) on this blog to share with you all. Each title listed below will link to a post displaying that piece. I am considering to start doing freelance work, just haven't decided how to go about doing it yet. When I do, I will post that info for anyone interested. Enjoy!



My Graphic Work - CD Cover Design

Posted by IcePrincess at 2:12 PM 0 comments


This is a design I did for a friend for his CD cover. This was done in February 2009. Which is my most recent work, because I hadn't done anything graphic related in a long while. So this gave me some practice, and made realized how much I missed doing graphic design.

Who is IcePrincess?

Posted by IcePrincess at 1:12 PM 0 comments
I'm not exactly good at these "About Me" type of stuff. That's why I rather you all just send in questions and I just answer. But I will give it a go and try to give you the basic stuff...

I came from two parents who are from St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. They were both in the military, and were stationed in Frankfurt, Germany where I ended up being born on March 22, 1984 (Aries in the house!). After I turned 2 years old, we moved to the U.S. and lived in Columbus, GA for several years. Then we got stationed in Honolulu, Hawaii in 1991. That was the best place we ever lived! Especially as a kid growing up. Anywayz...my parents separated in 1994. My dad went back to GA, and my mom had the insane idea to move us up to Alaska! So Alaska we went. Let me tell you, I was really pissed off about it, and still to this day.

So I spent most of my years here in Anchorage, AK (15 years total, off and on). Was in Atlanta from 2003-2007 for school, then back in Alaska from 2007-2008...then had went down to the Virgin Islands Nov. 2008 with my fiance (who is now an ex). Shyt didn't work out while I was down there, so I just recently came back up to Alaska Feb. 2009. Didn't really have any other option. So obviously I'm not too happy right now, and am getting tired of being bounced around all over the place. Hopefully that will end soon.

I attended Clark Atlanta University from 2003-2004 majoring in Computer Information Systems. Although I LOVE computers and am very savvy with it...I realized I didn't really care too much for this particular major (it was really boring), so I transferred to the Art Institute of Atlanta. Art and writing has always been my passion, and one of my major talents. I had started off with Media Arts & Animation, then changed my major AGAIN to Graphic Design. I was there for two years, and was doing great in school. In the beginning of my last year, I found out I would not be able to afford to continue with my education. Was going through a lot of financial problems, so unfortunately I had to drop out. Hopefully, I will be able to go back and finish up that last year.

I'm a proud mother of a very handsome, dynamic, and intelligent 6 year old boy...my son Desmond. I also have a nephew that will soon be two years old, who is like a son to me. That is my homie for real! LOL! I have a younger sister who is 21 years old. I wish I had some older brothers too.

Let's see...what else? I'm 5 feet, 5 inches tall, chinky eyes (which I think is my best feature). I used to have a banging azz body, but I've kinda let myself go over the past two years (stress and depression). But I've been working out a lot lately and starting to eat better, and the weight has been going back down (I'm down from 194 lbs to my current weight of 176 lbs), but I still have like 50 pounds more to go to get back to the size I was and before I will be satisfied again...LOL!

I'm a very down-to-earth, laid back type of person. I have what's called an "ambivert" personality, meaning I can be both introverted and extroverted depending on who I am around. I am very open-minded, creative, kind-hearted (I think I am too nice sometimes though...but that's a whole 'nother post!), loyal, trustworthy...and all that good stuff. I have my flaws also, and I never pretend to be perfect.

I'm at a point in my life, where I'm at a crossroads and don't really know in which direction to go. Have a lot built up inside of me, and didn't really have no way to release it. So that's why I decided to start a blog...to vent, express myself, etc.

Anywayz...that's all for now. If you want to know anything else, send an email to me with your questions. And I will answer them on here (as long as your question is not out of line...and you already know what I mean by that *raises eyebrow at the men*).

Adios,
IcePrincess

Rapper Lil' Kim = Michael Jackson 2.0??

Posted by IcePrincess at 10:03 PM 2 comments
How da hell do you go from looking like this...




...To this?




I will never understand why those who were already friggin' beautiful/sexy to begin with (i.e., Lil' Kim, Michael Jackson)...would butcher up there damn faces and bodies like that. So sad. Don't get me wrong. I love Lil' Kim, and I'm glad to see her doing something great on t.v. .....however, somebody needs to sit her azz down and tell her to quit with all this plastic surgery because she is starting to look Latoya Jackson-ish! And that is sooooo not a good thing. In the words of Tyrone (JD's personal assistant)..."That Ain't It!"

Ugh...I can not wait till all this retarded snow is GONE! I truly hate winters. I mean...what the hell is the purpose of snow anyway? *sighs*

And Alaska's weather acts like it don't know what it wants to do. Snow keeps melting, then it dumps the snow back on us, and repeats over and over. And to think, just several weeks back, I was living in the damn Virgin Islands enjoying the beautiful sunny weather and beaches. Man...Life is a BITCH! smdh....

Once a Cheater, always a Cheater???

Posted by IcePrincess at 2:30 PM 0 comments
"Once a Cheater, always a Cheater?"

This is something I've been contemplating lately, and I wanted to get everyone's opinion on. If in a relationship that you have been in for a long time with that person whom you love very much, you find out that they were cheating on you and you immediately break up with them. After being caught, they say that the other person never meant anything to them, that they made a mistake, and that they want to work things out with you claiming they will never cheat again. What would you do or have done personally in this type of situation? I would like to get the honest opinion of everyone, males and females. Thanks!

Does Life suck or do I just suck at Life???

Posted by IcePrincess at 2:26 PM 0 comments
**This post was originally posted on my Myspace blog on Feb. 27th, 2009.**

Why does it always seem like when I try to take 2 steps forward in my life, I always get knocked back 10 steps?

It's to the point that I'm too scared to go in any direction for fear of failure, because I know that anything I try...something real bad ends up happening to me. How do I know that? Because it's been that way for the past 8 years.

I know they say that it's just God's way of testing me, but dammit...I'm tired of all the tests! It's to the point where it's seriously becoming too overwhelming for me. I'm TIRED...So tired! I just want some peace of mind in my life. I don't even remember the last time I was genuinely happy. Every aspect of my life I feel that I have failed miserably in...financially, education, motherhood,relationships, health, socially...everything. The only thing that I am proud of is my son, but I feel like I have failed him.

Most people, even ones I'm close to don't even know half the craziness I have been through in my life. I'm a very private person, and I try to not put all my business out there. So they can't comprehend why I feel this way. If only you knew...

People keep telling me it's going to get better but it NEVER does. And that's not me trying to think negative, that's just been the Reality of the situation regardless of how hopeful and positive I've tried to be. Yes I know that a lot of people are struggling also all over the world, some might have it worse than me...but not to be rude...but I'm not living their life...I'm living MY life. I still have to worry about and deal with MY problems. So being told that doesn't make a difference to me, it doesn't make things BETTER for me. Did anyone consider that maybe I'M one of the people in that group that is having it the worst? Plus it doesn't even make sense to say some ish like that because of course there is always someone that is going to outdo somebody elses problems, and then the roles will eventually reverse.

Am I cursed or something? Did I do something so fucked up in a past life, that i'm now paying for those mistakes and dealing with bad karma in this present life? Geez...

It's like I know what I want to do in life, and what I need to get to that point. It's just these damn obstacles. I use to always fight for what I want no matter the obstacle, because I'm a natural warrior (Aries), but my strength to fight is getting weaker as time goes by. My optimism on life is slowly starting to dim.

In less than a month I will be 25 years old. I reflect on where my life is right now and I look at my peers around me, and see where I could have been in life...and it frustrates me that I still ended up in the same jacked up predicament that i was in years ago, DESPITE the fact that I've been probably trying way HARDER than most (I damn sure ain't no slacker). It's like all of my efforts are going down the drain one by one. And my faith in things getting better is now almost none existent.

Not to say I'm going to stop trying and completely give up. I have no choice but to keep trying, at least for my son. But I just don't see things getting any better for me. Like I've reached a plateau and can no longer rise up any higher.

I don't know...

I don't know...

What Am I Listening To? - Last Chance

Posted by IcePrincess at 2:03 PM 0 comments
One of my favorite songs that is out right now is Ginuwine's new single "Last Chance".I think Ginuwine is about to make a HUGE comeback and OMG...I am so excited! Not only because I'm a big G fan, but because I think real, authentic R&B is coming back. The R&B genre has been suffering for awhile now, so music like this is much appreciated.

This song is classic Ginuwine style, but it should be no surprise because on this album he is working with Timbaland and B. Cox again. Very smart move G! Anyways, I can't get enough of this song. If you haven't heard it, view the video below. If you like it, make sure you request this shyt like crazy on the radio, so that real talent and music gets supported. Ginuwine, show these young bucks how it's really supposed to be done!

Oh yeah, and he just shot the video for this song, so it should be premiering very soon on t.v. *doing my happy dance* (Update 3/27/09...the video just debuted...check it out below!)





P.S. Dayum, Ginuwine still looks just as sexy as the day he first came out back in the 90s....mmmhhmmm...
