The Study of Gabology

6 Mar

Back in the day no one could tell me anything thing about the crew I hung out with in high school. We had Bryan taking photos every second on the right, Gabs & Marissa singing their hearts out in talents shows and at lunch time in the music room, Taniece banging on drums, Kathy growing her luscious ‘fro and dreaming about her skin care collection, Khang working on his Ronnie-Jr-from-Jersey-Shore-esque body, my girls Tre and Beth bringing in the bate, Phillip pondering his next masterpiece of art work, and Chalaay being a grown up hanging out with the seniors (he was the only junior in our group).

It’s amazing to look at all of us now and see the progress and to see so many of us pursue our dreams while we attend school. Gabs, has been practicing her craft since as long as I’ve known her thus it’s been a pleasure to see the growth. I betcha no one at James Hubert Black High School would believe it’s the same girl they used to walk the hallways with who owned every colored pair of chucks in the world.

Nonetheless, after she released her single “Dangerous” she hit the studio again to produce this sultry soul clinger called “Change”. See the teaser of her new song “Change” shot by Bryan (who also does her photography) & his buddy Mahada below and hear the entire song on her Myspace music page.

Follow Tracie-Josephine on her artistic journey at @Gabology and on her Facebook Fan Page.

It’s fantastic to see someone spread their wings, especially when they’re a good friend of yours. I’ve taken a front row seat…will you? You should, because she “wants to change mankind, one song at a time” ;-)

“Don’t call it a come back”

6 Mar

So I’ve been having the time of my life on Study Abroad in France. But there are somedays when you want to have some since of home, some sense of the things you used to do, some sense of the things you left behind. I’ve been on cloud 9 for more than 2 months - that’s a long time to be so high. I’ve been needing a way to ground my excitement and finally found the remedy after having an epiphany.

I love writing about the things that bring me inspiration and make me happy. It was the entire reason I started “Pursuit of Paris”. So I’m back…

What’s new besides me exploring Europe? [1] I’ve finally completed the “About” section, (yaay!) [2] I’ve added a new section to the blog entitled “!nspirat!on” that links to everything I come across that has my senses spinning. Click the photo below to be transported to that side of my cranium ;-)
