Last night I wanted to serve up a roundhouse to my kickboxing teacher…he made me do push-ups…multiple sets at that. This morning my arms are sore but I’ve come to my senses. Now I’d like to hug him instead because I know my upper-body strength is crap and I needed that push to work on it. 

I am so excited for this month! It’s going to be filled with awesomeness.

Week One: My cousin Diamond opens her online boutique. PoshWorldBoutique.com will be live at 5 p.m May 1. She’s only 19 but has a passion for fashion and a style like no other. 

SSU graduation on Cinco de Mayooooo!!! I’m proud of my friends and happy for all the graduates. 

Week Two: Happy Birthday to my Daddy! He’s turning 53 on May 7, and I pray he’s around for many more years to come.

My home skillet Michelle finishes her graduate program at American University! YESSSS!!! It feels great to not be a student but I’m sure it’s even better when you’re closest friends aren’t either, lol 

Going to Philly for my cousin Bridgette’s graduation, from Temple University on May 10. She’s an inspiration to follow your heart and dreams. Dance major and she’s already working at a dance company in the area. Double shouts out to her!

Week Three: Happy Mother’s Day and my little big sister Carlita is graduating from VA State! Communication majors are the best and she’s coming out of her college roller coaster ride on top. 

Flight to ATL on May 17. There’s no place like home and no matter where you’re from there’s definitely no place like Atlanta baby!

Week Four: My bestie/girlfriend A’leah graduates from Clark Atlanta on May 21. We’ve been friends for almost 10 years and she’s never left my side. Time and distance hasn’t left our friendship weak and I’ll ALWAYS be in her corner. 

Beyonce concert in Atlantic City! Really King B needs no further explanation….it’s going down!!!

Week Five: Memorial Day…hopefully, I’ll be at a cookout somewhere. If not, it’s at least an extra day I don’t have to come to the office…as you can see I’m going to need it. 

May 31…last day of the the month…and the celebration continues!! My wifey Chantell turns 24!

Whew! just typing that increased my excitement level by 10…yay for May. Let the good times begin!
