Were in a FASHION WAR and they consider me the FASHION WHORE!. =]

"Neighborhood"

The elated sun surrounds our world with a bright smile


We kindly greet but block out with the lens of our sunglasses

Being inexorable to the fact that the sun brings no harm to our eyes.

The consolation of shade coming from the trees

Has me thinking that there only here to do nothing but be benevolent

Oh how I love those trees.

The cordial weather has bring out the orthodoxy in human beings

From sitting a beach chair on the front porch

To either being precipice and sun tanning in the middle of the road.

As the kids from an acute angled home across the street

Run in and out of the house every minute of the day

Not being able to be reproach about the fact that their destroying our neighborhood.

Our world is resolutely known as

And exultant that’s never ending

Confusion feels this mind of mine

Emotion takes over the pain inside.
I sit back and wonder why”
Wonder why’ I sit back and see the joy of others that watch
The pain that grows in me.


The ones that I called friends in the beginning
I begin to witness a change
The growth and strange behavior
I can not explain

Lies bundled up ‘I see it in their eyes.
They can’t even make eye contact without dying inside
So….wats left more heart ackes’more pain
More tears’ more shame

Why stay here if that’s all I live for
I feel as if I don’t accomplish shit anymore.

So I take this stand to say
I no longer want to be in anyone’s way
Travel downstairs to the kitchen floor
Where laid a bottle of pills
I couldn’t take it anymore

Pop one, pop two, pop three’ more then four
I felt my insides give up as I clasped to the floor
Laying helpless as I did

I sat and thought
Wishing this shit hurried up
I didn’t want to cry anymore

In ran one two three and four.
The four that I adore
There wasn’t nothing I could say that day
How selfish was I to try to take my life away

Not thinking what kind of effect that would have on others that day
If my heart stopped beating
In any kind of way

Theres only a few that know this is how life supposed to go
You have trials tribulations and hardships to make it to success
It took all that to realize how much
I WAS BLESSED

MT.AIRY FASHION TEEN WINS CASTING NATIONAL MODEL SEARCH

Friday, August 28, 2009

The local aspiring model struck the winning pose at Willow Grove Park’s casting call When 17-year-old Shakia Anderson’s father passed away in March, she considered abandoning her dreams of becoming a model. However, after hearing of Garage’s “Model Search 2009 — It Could Be You” casting call at Willow Grove Park in April, she decided to try for her dad. “I always knew he wanted me to follow my dreams,” said Anderson in a statement released last week.

Anderson’s father would have been proud, as the lucky Mt. Airy teen was chosen out of 1,000 girls across six states to be featured in the glamorous model 2009 holiday advertising campaign for Garage, a popular clothing retailer for fashion-conscious teenage girls. She will be whisked away on an all-expenses-paid trip to the glitz and glam of the Garage holiday photo shoot in September, and will receive a $1,500 Garage wardrobe featuring their signature trendy celeb-casual looks.

At the Willow Grove Park casting call, Garage judges were impressed by Anderson’s charming and outgoing personality, confidence and comfort in front of the camera, still photographs, and passion for fashion. She was initially selected as one of 10 finalists — one from each U.S. Garage location — and then declared the national model search winner after an in-store vote from peers, Garage shoppers and the Garage Selection Committee.

“Modeling has been my number one goal in life since I was younger,” Anderson said during her casting call interview.

She has walked the runway in a handful of local fashion shows, and recently graduated from Acerella Studio’s Youth model and fashion Program in April. Anderson frequently shops at Willow Grove Park searching for fashion trends to complement her natural stylishness and to help her stand out in a crowd.

Anderson was previously a student at the New Media Technology Charter School in Philadelphia, and plans to complete her senior year at Cheltenham High School in Wyncote. In the future, she hopes to follow in Tyra Banks’ footsteps, by becoming a high fashion model and helping less fortunate people.
