My Life According to Beyonce

For those of you that follow me on Facebook, this is a repeat of a Note I posted some months back. Back then, I did it, then promptly forgot all about it, lol. But tonight, as I sit up at 2:17am pondering my lameness and wondering how I will turn this train wreck that is my life right now (aka my idea to start a small business with no clients and no capital and the marketing genius of The MC Hammer Comeback PR team) around, I found inspiration in this nifty little piece I stumbled upon. Lately I'd been feeling like I just suck at everything and hadn't been doing much writing (or editing, or makeup, or organizing...it was just...rough) so when I ran across this again, i sat back amazed that I'd actually taken the time to put this together. Not to toot my own horn but, uh, beep beep. Now, this ain't Shakespeare, or Toni Morrison, or even Oprah. Don't expect to find the answers to any of the questions that keep you up at night. This ain't that. This is my cute little ode to one of my favorites. Enjoy!


Using only song names from ONE ARTIST, cleverly answer these questions. Pass it on to 15 people you like and include me (presuming I'm someone you like). You can't use the artist I used. Try not to repeat a song title. It's a lot harder than you think! Repost as "my life according to (artist/band name)"

I chose one of my favorite artists of all time. . . y'all know how I feel about Bey....

Pick your Artist
Beyonce Knowles-Carter

Are you a male or female:
I'm a 'Naughty Girl'

Describe yourself:
I'm an 'Irreplaceable', 'Bootylicious' 'Diva'

How do you feel:
sometimes, I feel like a 'Broken-Hearted Girl'; sometimes, I feel 'Dangerously In Love'; sometimes, when dudes don't act right, I feel like I'm 'Through With Love'; I'm immensely 'Scared of Lonely'. Mostly, tho, I don't trip because I'm a 'Survivor'.

Describe where you currently live:
'I Can't Take No More'! i can't WAIT to be 'Free' to move back to the West Coast!

If you could go anywhere, where would you go?
'Hollywood'

Your favorite form of transportation:
In the arms of a big, strong 'Soldier', lol

Your best friend?
"Me, Myself, and I'...that's all I got, in the end, right?

You and your friends are: 'Independent Women'. One of them is a 'Beautiful Liar' -- and proud of it!--but don't tell her I told you that.

What's the weather like:
Today, the weather's like a 'Sweet Dream'...its almost 'Summertime' but not yet.

Favorite time of day:
Right after I get home from work, and slip into my big comfy 'T-Shirt', lmao!

If your life was a TV show, what would it be called:
The first show would be titled 'The Story of Beauty'. Then, it'd probably be retitled to "Ohhh, so 'THAT'S Why You're Beautiful'?!" Followed by the spin-off, 'Ego'. *chuckling*

What is life to you:
A 'Gift From Virgo' (my mama), my life is a roller coaster ride of 'Emotions'. At times, I wander around like 'Satellites', blissfully unaware of everything besides the desire to 'Smash Into You'. Sometimes, life feels like 'If I Were a Boy', things would be easier becuz there ARE times when the 'Kitty Kat' gets me into a LOT of trouble, lol: I have a 'Bad Habit' of being a 'Nasty Girl' behind closed doors (shhhh!). Doesn't matter, though, I always 'Work It Out' in the end...


Your relationship:
(this is entirely too easy, lol) Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm one of those 'Single Ladies' who refuses to just 'Be With You' because 'That's How You Like It'. And I'll STAY single until I'm 'Crazy in Love', too. If I gotta 'Ring The Alarm' on these fools before they realize that 'Cater 2 U' is a two-way street, I'll do that. Once I find that 'Sexy Daddy' that makes me 'Lose My Breath', I'll say 'Yes' to anything he asks, leave him 'Speechless' if he can handle it ('Baby Boy', believe me: 'I Got That')...but until then, I'ma STAY hurtin 'em in a fresh 'Freakum Dress'! They not ready for a 'Suga Mama' fa real...they're always tryna 'Put It In a Love Song' like they WANT a 'Bonnie and Clyde' but 'The Closer I Get to You', they 'Disappear'. Hmph.

Your fear:
That I'll miss my 'Green Light', and life will pass me by. That I'll be so consumed with bitterness and 'Resentment', I'll never let anyone get close enough to look into my 'Brown Eyes' and see how much I could truly 'Upgrade U'. That someone unworthy will spend so much time trying to 'Get Me Bodied', they'll miss all the 'Signs' that 'My Heart Still Beats' and pass me over for some other undeserving chick. 'Is She The Reason'?

What is the best advice you have to give:
'Girl', do you. Never be afraid to be exactly who you are, even if it feels like 'Deja Vu' at times. No one can judge you cuz no one here wears a 'Halo'.

Thought for the Day:
"Without 'Love', everything else is bound to fail."

How I would like to die:
'Video Phone' turned off, listening to my favorite song on the 'Radio', eatin a big bowl of 'Apple Pie A La Mode' wearing a 'Happy Face' :-)

My soul's present condition:
My heart is open, and ready to 'Listen' to the Spirit's guidance 'Until The End of Time'.

My motto:
"Even when you're scared to try, 'Check On It' anyway. Fail until you succeed. Make Each Day a Beautiful Day."

I hope you TRUE Beyonce fans enjoyed this one!
