Lemme tell y'all, folks, something. I am a future hot gyal. Right now I am in training. I started my hot gyal training slightly late, but don't discount me. Musically I am a true hot gyal. An older one, who got bad knees, but a hot gyal none the less. The current issue is that my training is currently in a suspended space because of the 'Rona. But lemme tell y'all 2020 was gonna be my year. I was gonna be traveling more, my fitness journey would have been more situated and I was looking the part. It's a couple bits and pieces that would be forever missing cause honestly, me nuh have too much patience for tomfoolery and shenanigans. But I was working my way towards being a true hot gyal by the end of 2020. Unfortunately, a slight global pandemic has put a full halt to those plans. So for now, ya girl is a musically based hot gyal, and here are some playlists for y'all.
As I have mentioned an ungodly number of times on this blog, I am a walking ball of anxiety. And it affects so many parts of my life, especially because I've gone so long without actively working to fix it (2 decades basically). One of the aspects of my life that got hit the hardest was my relationship with God. I've always been apart of the church. I was a churchgoer and an active participant within the church for basically my entire life. And then I stopped. I let life and moving away from home for college affect my relationship with God. And in doing so I eventually developed intense anxiety surrounding going to church and sometimes even being around other Christians. This honestly has to be a joke because I live with a Jamaican grown, born-again Christian woman for a mother. Imagine going through a crisis of faith for years and a mom who cannot understand how you went from a regular and active churchgoer to barely having gone to church in years. Shit goes from peacefu...
I don't know what took my soul today but let me tell y'all about a young Average Gyal and her youth. Forewarning, today's post is brought to by my Indie playlist I made like 3 minutes ago. So a little backstory on this trip down memory lane, I went out tonight to a Caribbean event and the DJs KILLED it with their skills. I don't know why but it was trip down memory lane with all the riddims and ting. Anyways, I leave and almost immediately as I get in my car I knew I didn't want to play dancehall, reggae or soca like I would normally on a night like this. So my playlist reading the car plays the best song it could have EVER played... Sweet Disposition by The Temper Trap. It was like the Lord knew what he wanted me to hear and this was it. So my drive home was just a radio station based on this song and one based on the artists. Most fun I had on the drive back home in a while. A baby Danielle, not even 2 years living in the States tbh. Look at the fresh face n...
