Mixtape - coming soon

My cousin Behailu (@DaddyBAbreha) and I will be dropping a joint mixtape very soon. Be on the lookout for that.

Ethiopia = Other

Ethiopia has never been conquered. Therefore, two of our many top business languages are Amharic and/or Tigrinya aka Other (;

I know at least 4 people with EACH of those names... and a lot of my family members and close friends/family friends are named with these names lol - and would you look at that! MY name is Bethlehem! lol

I am a rapist... kinda.

I may have had the biggest kid crush on Ray Ray (the one with the long braided pig tails)... lmfao! omg. This is just SAD! He's 13 years old and I'm turning 20 in August. Not to mention the fact that he is my 9 YEAR OLD sister's celebrity crush (her other one being Jayden Smith) -_- smfh.

Okay... not literally a "crush", but I just tend to say that "he's just the cutest little thing EVER" a bit too much!



remiiiiiiiix!



I mean... just because my height is equal to these little 10-15 year olds does NOT mean that I have any right to be freaking out over these little boys lmao -_- kill me!

Wonderland - Beautiful.

"I was flesh and blood before, but now I'm only skin and bones." 

I'm pretty sure that I posted all this before, but there goes... again.

Beautiful.

2 blues and no blacks.

I went to Alyssa's house yesterday to spend some quality time with her, Maureen, Dawit, and Sam (Dawit and Sam couldn't make it, but us ladies had a kick ass night).  I love my friends!

Anyway, I ended up walking outta the house with two different blues on thinking they were both BLACK... Like, what the? Can't get any more color blind than THAT! lmao

Rules of a lady.

Shattered heart.

I painted my nails lightening pink with one coat of shattering white nail polish over it. - I don't look too sad, but I named this combo "Shattered Heart" lol. Dope... Right?

note: Look at my kitten Olive sleeping behind me. SO precious!

Pres. Obama is a terrorist???

For ONCE I actually agree with Bill O'Riley. I absolutely love Lupe Fiasco's music, but what the hell is wrong with him? Has he lost his mind? smfh.

Skins (UK) = My life!

Skins (UK) = My life!

...summed up into one show (specificaly Effy's story line).

Note: I've never even once seen the US' MTV version of Skins and I don't plan on watching it either. It's too edited and isn't real AT ALL whereas the original version (the UK's version) is much more raw and uncensored so I suggest that you watch the UK's version and leave the US' version in the dust.

UK.

 Generation 1:

Tony (male): I had everything I wanted, I lost it all. Going to get it all back, piece by piece.
Cassie (male): You know what hurts the most about a broken heart? Not being able to remember how you felt before.
Jal (female): Yeah, let’s do that! Let’s build something, and we’ll tear it down.
Chris (male): It’s kind of easy when you’ve got nothing, because nothing can be taken away from you. I don’t want nothing anymore.
Sid (male): Why did you go away? No, I needed you and you pissed off. I love you, I’m so sorry.
Maxxie (male): Don’t you care what I want? Don’t I get to decide? I can do this dad.
Anwar (male): I’m a muslim boy, I don’t get to choose.
Michelle (female): Tell me like you’d die for me. Like nothing else matters. Like your world stops turning because of me. Like you mean it, you little shit.

 Generation 2:  
Effy's rebel ways and roller coaster mindset + Cook's reckless mindset = story of my life...

Effy (female): Anger, jealousy, bitterness, tiredness, hope, lust, love. It’s conceptual, you just can’t see it.
Cook (male): Nothing good ever stays with me, absolutely nothing.
Thomas (male): I fell in love with this girl. She was good, she was honest. Now she’s gone and this new one, I don’t like her. She makes my heart hurt.
Pandora (female): Just cause I’m useless don’t mean I’m nothing. But you don’t make enough effort Eff. I’m just there to laugh at.
Freddie (male): Nothing bad is gonna happen, I’m gonna take care of you now, I promise. I can’t let this happen again. I’m not gonna let this happen again.
Naomi (female): When I’m with you, I feel like I’m a better person. I feel happier, less alone.
JJ (male): Just care, okay? About me you twats, you’re all fucking twats!
Emily Fitch twin 2 (female): I could be dead in a second. Everything’s so… fragile. Didn’t you realise that?
Katie Fitch twin 1(female): It’s all about you. I didn’t want to let you down. I’m not gonna be you. I just want a mom who loves me, no matter what.

 Generation 3:

Franky (female): I’m nothing. I’m a no good shit magnet/ I just wanna like… just be. / I’m into… people.
Rich (male): This is me. This is who I am/ Maybe stories are just stories. Or maybe we can make our life a story.
Mini (female): I’ve been a complete bitch. And I’m really sorry, we could all be awesome mates. I want that now.
Liv (female): We were so much better than all those nice boys and girls. As if we knew a secret they didn’t, but, we don’t tell each other our secrets. / I owe you so much.
Nick (male): I fell but these guys caught me. It’s what mates do, we have a go. Whatever comes, we have a good go at it, cause it’s all we can do.
Alo (male): When did it all get so fucking hard? / I’m really gonna try to be better, you make me feel so fucking useless. But I’m gonna do it, I’m gonna grow up.
Grace (female): No one’s got a fucking clue of who I am or what I can do. / It’s the only thing I believe in, because it’s the only thing I’ve got left to count on.
Matty (male): So why do I see a glorious fucking headfuck thing? / Here we are, it’s not random. / I’m ust as fucked in the head as you are.

note: Everyone deserves a die hard friend like Cook and a loyal lover like Freddie... EVERYONE.

Listen to what I just composed on the Google homepage... - http://goo.gl/doodle/rzSZ (:

Man Down - Rape.

 You are NOT a man if you have ever raped a girl or even forcefully tried anything against her will... with even something as simple as a kiss. - go ahead and quote me if you'd like!



I fucking LOVE Anthony Mandler (my all time favorite director in the business) for coming up with the concept for this video. - Shout outs to Rock City for producing this record and singer Shontell for writing it... and I guess Rihanna for singing it... duh... lol

make love to me.

"I don't know much about guns, but I've been shot by you."

- - -

If I aint got nothing, I got you
If I aint got something I don't give a damn, cause I got it with you

Cause baby we aint got nothing without love
Darling you got enough for the both of us
So come on baby, make love to me

When my days look low, pull me in close and don't let me go.
Make love to me. So that when the worlds at war, that our love heal us all
Right now baby make love to me...me...me...mee...mee. ooh ooh make love to me.

Hey! I don't know much about guns but I...I've been shot by you
Hey! And I don't know when I'm gon die, but I hope that I'm gon die by you

Hey! And I don't know much about fighting, but I, I know I will fight for you
Hey! Just when I ball up my fist I realize that I'm laying right next to you

Baby we aint nothing but love, and darling you got enough for the both of us
Make love to me...when my days look low, pull me in close and don't let me go.
Make love to me...so that when the worlds at war, that our love heal us all
Help me let down my guard, make love to me...me..me....me..meee ooh ooh ooh make love to me...me...me...mee...mee.

Tangerine scene.

Decided to paint my nails "Tangerine Scene" by OPI (all thanks to my cousin Jerusalem - @PrettyEthiopian for letting me cop it from her)

I was super bored so I thought I'd blog my photo booth rampage too lol

I have no life... Dawit's right lol

Just DON'T.

 Just DON'T.

you deserve to be happy.

A: "I really don't get it..."
B: "What?"
A: "I don't get how you can just LET her win ALL the time!"
B: "What?! Wow! I can't believe you think that! We are NOT taking about this!"
A: "If the tables were turned, do you really think that SHE would let YOU win?"
B: "Will you stop?!"
A: "No! Now WHY? Tell me! Let it out! WHY do you let her win?"
B: "Because that's what she does! she wins! she always has!"
A: "But YOU deserve to be happy!"
B: (sigh)

yelluh nails.

I tend to paint my nails a bright color in hopes that it'll maybe brighten up my mood... maybe. - It doesn't always work though /:
