Freshman Year High School: 1996-1997

I gotta pay homage to two artists we lost too soon. Both had hits during my freshman year of high school. The first is Aaliyah's "If Your Girl Only Knew," and the second is Tupac's "I Ain't Mad At Cha." Both singles came out at the beginning of my freshman year. I devote this space to remember them both.

OSF: Songs to Exercise To

Oh, this one is my favorite category! Each week at our church we have a segment called, "Praisercise," where we exercise to praise songs for roughly three to five minutes during morning worship. I lead these exercises weekly and usually do a few grapevines to warm up, and then some boxing and plyometrics for a minute or so to take it up a notch. We're trying to promote more health and wellness projects and initiatives at our church, and those of you who know me, know I'm all about that!

So, I picked a song that we've used during praisercise. It's Kirk Franklin's "Look at Me Now." Enjoy!

OSF: It's All About the Money

Although this song gets a bad rap from the fellas, I still love me some Destiny's Child: "Bills, Bills, Bills." Enjoy!

OSF: Songs to Cuddle To

I always liked Janet Jackson's "Let's Wait A While," back before her lyrics got suggestive and explicit. Enjoy!

But you Didn't Keep it as a Reference

I know; I know. Students sell textbooks back all the time. I stumbled across this link while googling my name (don't ask why; it's not because I'm narcissistic!) Apparently the textbook I co-edited last year is being sold on craigslist. It's listed as in good condition even though the cover is worn. At least it appears to be used. LOL!

Back to School Edition

School starts tomorrow for me. I thought I'd post this video just for laughs...

OSF: Songs that People Would Be Surprised I Know

Anyone remember The Jets' "You Got it All"?



What about "I Got a Crush on You"?
