omari


this man has dedicated his life to taking care of 35 orphaned children from the ages of 2-17 in kenya. a couple of days ago a group of thugs raided the orphanage to pilage anything they could find, the thugs then beat and slashed his face with a machete for defending the children and himself from attempted attacks.

the only thing the children are living off of right now are things growing from their small garden, and eggs from a couple of chickens in their coup. reddit aimed to raise $2,000 a couple of hours ago to help build a concrete wall around the orphanage with a 3 layered barbed wire coil set on top.

in 3 hours, over $11,000 has been donated and all the extra money is going to feeding them, giving them an education, keeping these children (and many more) safe, and building a new facility.

please feel free to donate

small amounts make big differences.

jerret wade


coming from a rough childhood he grew up to become a very successful young man, one thing i learned from him was to never let the horrors of the past determine the person you will become in the future. im not one to question god but ive done so many bad things in my life, i cant help but wonder why im still here and great people like him are taken.. maybe ill never know but one thing i do know is that ill try to be as happy, loving & successful as he was, despite what hardships my life may bring.. to jerret wade.

the forerunner saga - book two

i purchased this awesomeness today (girlish squeal) i read book one over a year ago and i kicked and screamed for what seemed like an eternity because i didnt have the next installment of the book in my hands, the best part about reading is NOT being able to put the book down. this is one of the few books thats does it for me :/

ps. ladies, dont get me twisted but if you hook up with a dude and he doesnt have a shelf full of books at his place.. dont sleep with him.

RB interviews: paul keo

i caught up with one of the most hard working and energetic individuals to come out of the explosive texas hair scene. the 25-year old DFW native learned the arts of weaving and designing your illustrious locks at the prestigious toni & guy school, if youre looking to up your hair swag then hes is the man for you.

RB5000: where were you brought up?

PAUL: south irving texas

RB5000: did you always want to be a hair stylist?

PAUL: no, i went to school for business with a minor in art but i dont really consider myself smart, just creative and artistic.

RB5000: do you enjoy your work? if so, what do you enjoy the most?

PAUL: i love it! i especially enjoy working on men with long hair, business cuts, mullets, the hitler, curling hair, braiding hair, lots of volume ,big hair, setting curls, blondes, red heads, wavy hair, clients that trust my professional advice, easy going clients that say DO WHAT EVER YOU WANT and cutting employee hair.. oh yeah, shoulder length cuts on women!

RB5000: thats a lot

PAUL: well yeah those are my favs, i have alot to offer.

RB5000: what else do you do beside cutting hair? any hobbies?

PAUL: thrifting! i love thrifting for my friends. i love vintage, antiques and i spend my days off going to the salvation army, goodwill, movie trading company as well as the theatre. im a huge horror movie fan i also enjoy sci-fi and fantasy.

RB5000: who are your style influences?

PAUL: good question! i love alexander wang and his personal style. i love over sized sweater and t-shirts, i love mary kate and ashley, i love skinny bitches in baggy clothing, trashy, chic, vintage, classic, simple, boyish. dolce & gabbana always has amazing collections, i replicate their style in a more affordable way.

RB5000: any guilty pleasure(s)?

PAUL: uhhh thats a tough one... i still listen to mariah carey and aaliyah, i watch full house dvds occasionally. i dont think thats a gulity pleasure though because i think other people would enjoy those things as well i'm not really ashamed of what i'm into.

RB5000: your best style advice

PAUL: knowing and choosing the right clothes for your body type/proportions. having a good eye for composition helps! style isnt something you one day wake up with, its something youre born with! also, having a gay guy friend helps as well but not all gays have good taste so any individual with great style of their own could give good advice.

RB5000: what does your wardrobe consist of?

PAUL: right now im obsessed with black sweatshirts/t-shirts with colorful sports prints. grandaddy sweaters/cardigans, jackets: leather, trench, long black coats, blazers, loads of members only. i have alot of clothes i buy and havent worn i like to think of them as my secret weapon when i'm completely out of something to wear. and i also love navajo inspired clothing M.I.A. is also a style influence, anything that extenuates my neck like low cut tees and v neck i dont like to cover my neck.

RB5000: what does sexy mean to you?

PAUL: sexy mentally is someone who is very comfortable with themselves and their surrounding as well as other people. "physically"? masculinity. i love guys who are just guys.. hairy, basketball shorts, t-shirt and jeans, tennis shoes, ethnic men.

while window shopping with my brother i spotted these bad boys and i had to have them, this boot binge im currently on is a big bitch on my pocket book. its whatever, as long as i can get my swag on its well worth it to me. also, ive been into rubber boots (i blame my boss).
