I Am...

Allow me to reintroduce myself… My name is Rashan. Emphasis on the Ra like in Rakim. For the last 9 months, you have known me as T. Casanova or T. Cas. Today, I am letting you get to know the real me. Since I am one of the biggest Nas fans out there, I am jacking the title of his 3rd album, “I Am” for this post.

I Am...

I Am… one of the nicest cats you could ever meet.
I Am… one of the most sarcastic cats you could ever meet.
I Am… a sucker for love.
I Am… down with you until you cross me.
I Am… arrogant at times
I Am… insecure at times
I Am… addicted to music
I Am… a lover of language.
I Am… a lover not a fighter
I Am… easily intrigued.
I Am… easily bored.
I Am… perpetually searching for answers
I Am… tolerant of other’s viewpoints
I Am… stubborn to a fault
I Am… a homebody
I Am… a workaholic slacker
I Am… non materialistic
I Am… cynical about people’s intentions
I Am… trusting when I’m in a relationship
I Am… cheap when it comes to myself and generous with others.
I Am… a conversationalist
I Am… hard to figure out (but I’m working on it)
I Am… an extroverted introvert
I Am… an aloof flirt
I Am… a walking contradiction
I Am… in love with being in love.
I Am… what I am
I Am… Rashan Jamal

And who the fuck are you???

i see you with the self-disclosure monday!!!!!!! might need to become a reoccurring theme for us bloggers (hint hint)! yall know how i feel about revealing myself, but hey, here goes:

I am...a die hard romantic.

I am...funny as hell, but my Granny is funnier!

I am...sensitive and cry accordingly.

I am...not a freak, I just like what I like!

I am...insecure about my writing a lot of the time because I don’t always handle compliments well.

I am...dangerously attracted to men with locs!!!!

I am...putty in the hands of any guy who puts his hands through my locs!

I am...a woman who loves with her whole heart (and believe me, that isn’t always a good thing)!

I am...an avid fiction reader.

I am...a music connoisseur!

I am...the one that my friends always call when they need to talk, vent, cry, yet, I don’t always feel like I can do that with them (personal hang-up I think).

I am...a woman with some "voluptuousness" on her AND i'm still sexy as hell!

I am...a natural flirt (even women hit on me!)!

I am...a pretty AWESOME kisser (even though I don’t get to do it much because I don't just kiss everybody).

I am...a lover, not a fighter (although I’m from a family of grown ass females that STILL fight)!

I am...serious about completing this Ph.D.

I am...one of those women who guys NEVER forget.

I am...that woman who probably was (and will be) the love of your life.

I am...that woman that other women want to be friends with! :-)

I am...considering how possible it would be to meet yall fabulous bloggers that I have come to "know" and "love?"

@ liquor and tv - I guess I need to write some more funny stuff to keep you interested. LOL

@ Blah Blah Blah - ummm...riveting?

@ miss ahmad - hey, i dont know you personally, but I can say that your writing is definitely awesome...

@ fallen angel - if i did this too often you would get bored with me. I aint that interesting. You sound like a pretty cool individual. If you ever in ATL, me and my non locs would love to meet you.

@ MiMi - I feel it, I love what you did with your list.
