Jazz Ain't Nothin' but Soul

Goodnight Bloggers
zzzZZZzzz

DC Trip Continued ...

Okay where did I leave off?
Right...Chillin with Marcus & Liz.
So we all decided to go out for some sun :) After talking for a bit, Marcus had a couple of visitors/friends come over, so Sweetpea & I went to a nearby kiddie park :)
Oh the pleasures of being a kid =D If only we could go back!


After our playground adventure we returned to my brother,
talked for a couple more hours, entertained by the stories of his guests then followed my bro to the cafeteria.
The shuttle back to the hotel was soon to come, so we said our goodbyes...
...I always get super sad when I have to leave Marcus, but luckily I had the Sweetpea there to distract me from my sorrows.

We got back to Silver Spring and walked around Downtown, which I think is sexier at night!


 Then we decided to go to RED LOBSTER!
WOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO!


Crab legs, shrimp, & Bahama Mamas!
YAY!

&After that amazing meal we SLEPTTT good as shit.
Woke up the next morning & it was GOODBYE DC,
two floor Megabus with WiFi & outlets was fly.
But not as fly as my baby helping me with my homework on the ride back :)
Ahh, What I lovely weekend with two of my favorite people.
Marcus & Montez
hehe.

*I'm so grateful for my blessings
& I can't wait to see you again big bro!
Love Youuu,
Silese <3

Sorry For The Hiatus...

Class, Homework & Work have taken over my lifeeee :/

Lol. But luckily I bought a camera in the end of August  so I've captured some of the time we spent apart ;)
lol.

I went to visit my superhero brother :) & the baby, my Sweetpea, came too =D!
My brother is recovering at the speed of light & I'm extremely proud of him.
His strength and resilience is amazing.
But let the slideshow beginnnn!

We woke up at the crackkkk ass of dawn, the bus was at 550am!
I wanted us to get to Washington DC in the morning so this was the bus that made it happen :)
We arrived at 10th & H st around 9-930ish :)
 
We had quite the adventure getting to the hotel. My friend Tierra informed me that the "red line" was closed for the weekend (because public transportation does shit like that) so half way across a town we've never traveled we went =D She gave us amazingly accurate directions, I have to thank her, because most people cannot direct .. lol.


And before we knew it, we arrived at the Hiltonnnn!
*By this time Sweetpea was too tired of me taking pics, but willing to always make me smile she continued to pose and model for me.

.
We were exhausted and Marcus was at his little cousin's baseball game, so we got to SLEEP!
What a lovely, and much needed rest that was.
Hours later, Marcus' cousin Jen came to pick us up & take us to his other cousin's new house in Baltimore.
It was a good length ride, but on the way the baby, saw something she knew I would appreciate ..
STREET ARTT!



We arrived to everyone looking through old pictures and immediately Marcus gives Sweetpea the oldest, ugliest, most horrid pictures ever. Goldie as a child. *GASP*
that scary stuff right there...so after wresting for the pics back, we all ate dinner cooked by the lovely aunt Sandy. & Then we all played charades. We had a great first day with Marcus.
Much later, we were dropped off, back at the hotel. Day One = A Succuess : )



Day Two, we were messy hungry hungry hippos that were trying to be studious. Linguistics for moi, excel tests for her. We are always productive together, but also extremely messy. Not quite sure why, because we are neat apart. Lol
  
After doing tons and tons of homework (college suckss) we finally got ready to go to Walter Reed to see my Marky-Butt. Waiting for the shuttle from the hotel to the hospital took forever...so we had a photo shoot. duh ;)
 
FINALLLLLYYY. We arrived at the Molonge House and Marcus & Liz were chilling, watching movies. Watching Love Don't Cost A Thing, which I'd never seen before. & Then Marcus showed me is updated collection of medals and awards =D

 
Oh & And there was a sexy picture of his K-9 Elly :)



 ^ That's one sexy picture, my school pictures NEVER came close to looking as good as that...I'm jealoussss.

*I have to interrupt this story to grab some food, I'll be back to finish laterrr ;)
Until then,
Live Life A Compassion :-*
