To Be or Not to Be…ME.

1. I’m half vegan…I don’t eat dairy but I still eats the meat! Well…only certain meats (I mean I only weigh 102lbs I think I would be depleted if I committed fully lol)
2. I’ve never been in love.
3. I didn’t eat chocolate for 4 years til I saw a snickers commercial one day and it sucked me back in…(I could go back tho,…still don’t see the big deal)
4. My paternal grandmother was part Dominican.
5. I have over 22 Aunts and Uncles on my moms side alone.
6. I’m the baby, gotta love me!
7. I am part of the 1% that actually graduated from Berklee College of Music! Lol
8. I got accepted to every art school I applied to even though I didn’t know I could draw til my senior year of high school! (I was a Fashion Design major at Mass Art before I transferred to Berklee)

Dear AnoshaWorld,
Sometimes you have to sit back and think, “What the heck is going on here?” (Wise words from my 4 yr old nephew) Why did I make those decisions? Is this the kind of person that I always wanted to be with? Am I content with the nonsense because that’s easier than making sense of it?????
I feel like I was so confused that I didn’t realize that making sense of it actually meant NOT trying to make sense of it. I mean, I never reached that ultimate point of clarity…BUT I did have a ray of light shed on some things…Things that I actually knew the whole time but finally became able to accept them. (Don’t you just hate that?!! It’s kinda like telling yourself I told you so…rude!)
I can’t say my heart has been broken, but it definitely was chipped a bit…but that piece already grew back like wolverine…arrggh!!
Who am I to think I know how things are supposed to work out?…It’s more fun to just let the cards fall anyway!
See ya! Wouldn’t wanna be ya!
Lol
Dear AnoshaWorld,
I wonder sometimes why things work out the way they do? Why when theres so much good out there people are attracted to what’s bad for them? I wish I could read people’s minds or at least that people spoke their minds instead of always worrying about the consequences. JUST DO IT. I mean, doesn’t it get exhausting always worrying about what people think of you or what’s gonna happen next? I say do what you feel and the rest will fall into place because although some consequences seem bad at the time, they will lead you to the places you needed to be and around people you were supposed to be with. No goal was ever achieved without adversity.
Seriously… think about something bad that’s happened to you and the silver lining that came out of it. Probably would have never happened without that hardship, I think it builds character…I embrace my hardships cause it means I’m doing something right. Nothing worth trying for is easy.
In Conclusion, I refuse to hold myself back. I will NEVER let an idea, thought or notion scare me away from pursuing what I want or getting my dream. I rather punch fear in the face and know that I was bold enough to try and never have to wonder “what if.”
I suggest you do the same. 
Love,
Anosha

Walk for Multiple Sclerosis
Support my friend Sam Besong in his Walk for Multiple Sclerosis!!
People don’t tend to think of MS as something that can affect them, but it can happen to ANYONE at anytime for no apparent reason. In fact, most people are diagnosed in their 20’s! That makes me want to find a cure yesterday!
“Having multiple sclerosis means that you may not be able to walk when you wake up. Or that you may suddenly have impaired vision. Or that your memory will fail you for no apparent reason. The symptoms of MS are different for everyone – the only certainty is that it will affect yet another person every hour of every day.”
Help Support a cure and aid to those already diagnosed with MS.
You can donate ANY amount HERE
Here are some other ways to help.
k. go donate. bye.
The Libertine
Jenna and I were invited to see a performance by The Regiment, (a horn trio who have performed/recorded with Akon, Busta Rhymes, Chaka Khan, Lady GaGa, Mary J. Blige to name a few) They played at the Libertine last night in West Hollywood and we met through a mutual friend. They were really nice guys and fun to be around! I met alot of Berklee alum actually which was cool and somehow meeting and mingling spiraled into me singing with the band. I sang “Bag Lady” (Erykah Badu) cause it was the only song I could think of the words on the spot…even though I ended up messing them up anyway lol. It was just a fun, laid back night and we had a great time! Apparently they jam there every Monday night, so I’ll be back!
FOOD INC.
Just getting back to L.A. from a week falling off the planet when I open my fridge to see I’m in dire need of groceries! While walking through the aisles of the supermarket I can’t help but be influenced by the documentary Food Inc. that I had just seen this past weekend. Knowing where your food comes from and how it is processed is really important. After all, you should know what your putting in your body right?
People have come to just think of eating as just something you do to prevent hunger but its more than that. Food is meant to NURISH your body, there are certain vitamins you need in your diet to fight off diseases and to stay healthy and strong. Many foods you think are rich in nutrients are not anymore because of the way they are processed. I grew up in a VERY health conscience house so I knew a lot about healthy diets and eating habits but this documentary shed a lot of light on many things I didn’t know about the Food Industry that I think everyone should be aware of. Definitely watch it if you get a chance, I bet you’ll make some changes to how you eat!
If you don’t watch it, at least read the labels when you go shopping. You’ll be surprised how many things we eat that are factory made and not even technically “food” at all. We all have the choice to eat how we please, it’s just smart to know where the things you eat come from and how they are processed because you only have one body so you better treat it right!!
Word.
Bye.
A Parents Worst Nightmare
Omg I saw this and literally almost started crying. I would FLIP OUT if someone did this to one of my nephews! I can’t even imagine….I hope she gets what she deserves….
This goes out to all the Budding Stars!
Sooooo…Im lying here starring at the ceiling thinking about the 101 things I have to do to get this career off the ground and Im not gonna lie, its pretty overwhelming. Get the EP done mixed mastered ready to go, find a photographer makeup artist. Think of concepts and outfits and glitter and magic and amazingness. Find money somewhere in a tree. (Oh man I wish!) Scratch the tree and get a job…oh yea, did I mention I just moved my whole life from Boston to LA! Great fun. Once thats all done, get a show together, dancers, band, dj…Oh, and an apartment…(can’t live on a couch forever)
So to all my budding stars…you know the deal…its WORK beyond most peoples imagination. If only you could just wake up and be a star!
