Yardhouse

Obviously I have a sick obsession of photographing food so bare with me. I don't know why but it always looks so scrumptious when photographed, or maybe I'm just weird. Our last night of FLA we went to Yardhouse at Glufstream. To say the food was amazing would be an understatement. Though it is technically an upscale sports bar the atmosphere and entrĂ©es were divine. Can you guess which is my meal? Hint hint, pescatarian.

Cheetah Red

Wow the day of shoes have been neglected wayyy too long. I apologize, life just happens sometimes. Any who, I finally got to wear my lovely new red bag my brother got me for Christmas and my cheetah wedges last night. They are so comfortable I am obsessed. Comfort, a solid print, perfect height and surprisingly cheap... thank you Forever 21 you succeeded! Went out for some drinks, music and a little hang sesh with my girls and ended up seeing a lot of people I hadn't really seen in a minute which is always lovely. T'was a good evening over all but had to take it a little easier tonight in preparation for NYE tomorrow. Rest up kiddos and enjoy your last (real) slumber of 2010...... where has time gone?!

ps. excuse the fail of wet-ish, undone hair when these photo's were taken. I got it together, slightly, by the last photo.
As depressed as this has me to say, No Hands was the jam last night. This is exactly the crap Em is talking about is Syllables (haha). I'm so disturbed that I enjoy anything that has to do with Wacka Flocka, or whatever his name is but such is life - Wale's part is the best anyway. Damn you catchy songs.

Pumpkin Pancakes

By now you've all realized our obsession with Pumpkin, anything. So while in Florida I decided it was time to have pumpkin pancakes at The Original Pancake House. Hence the name of the place I figured these were about to be spectacular. Though they were soft and fluffy but it seems they forgot the main part of these being ordered, the pumpkin. They look a little more orange than normal but they didn't really taste like much. A little bummed about it but at least I can check pumpkin pancakes off my list!

It Is Not About Lyrics Anymore

The song is pretty much self explanatory. Enjoy!

Eminem - Syllables (feat. Dr. Dre, Jay-Z, 50 Cent, Stat Quo & Ca$hi$) by louisleung

It’s not about lyrics anymore, it’s about a hot beat and a catchy hook

[Eminem]
If we gotta dumb down our style and ABC it
then so be it
cause nowadays these kids, jeez
don’t give a shit bout lyrics
all they wanna hear is a beat and thats it
long as they can go to the club and get blitz
pick up some chicks and get some digits
and the DJ’s playing them hits
oh this my jam, this my sh-t
we dont know a word to a verse,
all we know is the chorus
cause the chorus repeats the same four words for us
and the songs g'enormous, the whole formula's switched
cause we don’t know anymore, what are hits
is it the beat, is it the rap
is it a finger snap or the same 808 clap
and how do we adapt and get TRL votes
when 13 year olds control the remote
and Ashley’s got a brand new nose
we gotta put some new em-phasis on our syllables

[Jay-Z]
If the emphasis on the compact disc isn’t the beat
than I’m gon feature EM and get rich
and let Dre mix the shit and drive off in the Range Ro
cause everywhere I go they love the bling bling flow
bang bang look at the way my chain glow
the ring on my fing’ cost Jermaine a lot of dough, oh
the f-ck am I busting my brain for?
its just the way the game go, oh, it takes 2 to tango
you call this a lame flow
you bought the shit
I guess you to blame too
I just found the angle
no more reality flow
I’m tryna time my album dropping with a reality show
cock the Mac 11 in front of Hot 97
and call my publicist tell her we impressed heaven
no one gives a shit except some kids who just got into sex on the Internet
so you want the chat room or the house of Malibu Em?
Your emphasis is on the wrong Syllable

[Dr Dre]
They said 30's the new 20
funny, must mean 40's the new 30
interesting cause ever since then it’s been innocence
an extension for veteran rappers that are better than half
of the shit coming out right now
its all trash
the torch is gonna burn out before it gets passed
Jay said it’s his last and 50 and Em
then what? Detox drops what we got then
so now our whole camps is running around scrambling over what to do
gambling every time we put a record out
just looking for that hook

[Eminem]
(Wait Dre look)
Shorty I love you
and you love me too
we were meant to be cause shorty
you love me
and I love you too
and I promise I’ll be true to you

[50 Cent]
Go shorty, its your birthday
you made it just in time to hear my wordplay
its the kid that flip flows who used to flip O’s
and run G for days used to see how I get hoes
I’m international, I get my dick licked round the globe
I’m sick right into show, riding on lolo’s
puffing on coco, my bitch in Manolo’s
don’t f-ck with the dodo’s, I sling for dumb hoes
I playing, I aint got time to joke, joke
you f-ck around, you could get your ass smoked
look, its not a game, me B, I aint playing
beep behind me player, so you here anyway
you don’t hear what I’m saying
me fin-nini-na
fee-fi-dididee-yay
just give me my check and I’ll be on my way
sunny bunny money and funny
you aint even listening and I just took your money

[Stat Quo]
There once was a time everywhere he turned
shady aftermath was all ya heard
but they say 50 sang too much
and Em got soft
and they say Dre just fell the f-ck off
well f-ck the f-ck offs
all y’all eat soft, be mad, we bad fresh up outta the vault, oh!
new syllables eat ball, ya f-cks off’s
your house, your bitch I’m getting sucked off
East, south, midwest, even up north
falling victim to wax, spitting, bring out the white chalk
all for the gingerbread, we get it and get lost
catch me if you can, I’m running past while y’all walk

[Ca$hi$]
Shady made me for bringing it back
for the history of rap
it’s gone with a snap, a sneer and a clap
what happened to just spittin about living in the muthaf-cking city you at
in the grimiest condition, I breath in drama
King Mathers and Cash me, thats freak karma
I’m everything, anything, you could never be
its a hitting, rhyme in the month deep
I speak with a piece, no peace on my mind
I repeat every evil deed done of mine
no rest contest, contract to sign
by blood I’m in this squad for life
hear out my wind pipes and I just chime
I’m the reason you guys won’t say that line
I’m crazy renegade like Em and Jay-Z
I’m Rosemary’s baby

[Eminem]
Shorty I love you
and you love me too
we were meant to be cause shorty
you love me
and I love you too
and I promise I’ll be true to you

[Talking]
It is not about lyrics anymore,
It is not about lyrics anymore
its about a hot beat, a hot beat
its about a hot beat, a hot beat
a hot hot hot beat
and a catchy hook
a hot hot hot beat
and a catchy hook
nobody gives a damn about them syllables, sillyle-ables, whatever they are
I don’t care if you gotta rhyme smo, joe, toe and glow
now get out there and sell some God-damn records

LIV South Beach

Stolen from Candice -- thank youu!
Florida trip came to an end last night but I definitely had some great times while I was there. I met up with my long time friend Chelsea and we hit of LIV at the Fountainebleau Hotel in South Beach on Boxing Day for her friend Candice's 23rd! This has to be the first time I've gone out on a Sunday in forever. It was a really nice club which of corse started out pretty pretentious but it got better with time, literally. The later it got the less people were starting at each other and started to loosen up. There were a lot of random celebs that night like Kelly Rowland, Serena Williams, Johnathan Cheban, DJ Khaled, Weezy and a few more from YMCM. 
My little random story of the night is that Lil Wayne literally ran into me as he was coming into the club. As he, Birdman, Mack Mane and few others rushed in the back door, I was walking back to our table and he hit right into me in the chaos of it all. Embarrassing enough I didn't even look to see who it was and was just like WTF (hands up and all) then I felt a little bad as he seemed pretty nice. Ah well it happens but it was a solid night in the end. Most impressive part was how all the celebs just blended in and didn't need to be sectioned off or put in a special spot. Made it little less stuffy and just a good time to enjoy the music, which by the way was on point!
Oh and I got a little to into the brilliant ever changing lighting in the place and opted for no flash for many of the pictures. Yes many are blurry but bare with me, I can be weird.

In the end, LIV on Sunday's is a good decision and thanks to Terry for the hook up!!
