new fav car
-side story- I was riding around last week and I saw this guy I used to work with, but he isnt exactly my bff. So I was thinkin "he will never recognize me with my helmet on.... oh snap my face is on my helmet." So I had to sit through the entire red light looking up and away from his truck. Probably looked like a re re, but he didnt see me :)
BACK to the story! The car was a Volvo C30. I've seen a few before, but never up close. Pretty much gave me an O face. So, in the spirit of boredom and slight depression, I played around on photoshop and cooked up a couple images of what it can look like. enjoy

top ten songs
with that said, thanks for reading, and enjoy the list from #10 to #1
#10 - Twork It Out - Usher
It's hard to pick favorite songs from usher, but this song is a standout. It has such a chill beat, a laid back swagger to the lyrics. The bed of red rose pedals line helped me on valentines day one time too haha.
#9 - Naked - Marques Houston
This has to be hands down the sexiest song of my generation. The video, all black and white with a little bit of red, really was good. I don't think anyone but MH could pull off this song, the vocals are crazy.
#8 - Personal - Craig David
#7 - 6,8, 12 - Brian McKnight
I have been buying all of brian's albums all the way back to his "back at one" album (even managed to find a copy of his "anytime" album a few years back), and this is still my favorite mcknight song. The guitar is beautiful, and his voice is really sharp in this song.
#6 - Doin' Just Fine - Boyz II Men
This song was on their "evolution" album which came out in 1997, although I didn't hear it till around 2000/2001 when the "legacy" album came out. Really powerful lyrics, just a really strong message.
#5 - Goodbye - Jagged Edge
Jagged edge seems to have been having trouble recently putting a solid album together. But this song is perfect, has a catchy beat over some really nice melodies. Everytime I hear this song it really hits hard.
#4 - Nobody Knows - Tony Rich
I have to give credit to my mom for this song. It came out when I was 10, wayyy before I knew what r&b was. I dont know the story behind it, but somehow she had this album and would play it in the car a lot. Years later I found the cd laying around, made a copy and have been enjoying it ever since. thanks ma!
#3 - Just Friends - Musiq Soulchild
A little change of pace for this song, its a little faster than the rest of my list. It was the first musiq song I had ever heard, and it was really fun to listen to. No matter the mood, put this song on and it will make you happy.
#2 - Charlene - Anthony Hamilton
I can honestly, somehow, actually feel his pain in this song. His voice is so unique, and it matches perfectly with the tempo and lyrics.
#1 - Nice and Slow - Usher
