It's been a while...

So, it's been a while since I've posted something. I've been incredibly busy lately working on a bunch of shoots, going to auditions, selling some furniture, and on a new diet and workout plan. However, I wanted to drop in and give everyone a little preview on the things I've been working on. Check them out and let me know what you think! :)

There's not much to these sites just yet but I'll keep posting them up as I build on them.

Chocolate: A Tricky Treat

Chocolate: A Tricky Treat

Much of the cocoa that large chocolate companies use in their candy comes from poor countries in West Africa. Many of the cocoa farmers in these countries are trapped in poverty and unwillingly forced to rely on child labor, or even child slavery, to produce what they need to survive.

Children as young as 5 years old have been trafficked into slavery. These children will not have the opportunity for education, and will likely not escape the cycle of poverty. A few companies control most of the U.S. chocolate candy market and refuse to pay cocoa farmers enough to sustain their families and pay their workers. 

What you can do:

Look for the “Fair Trade Certified,” logo and buy Fair Trade Chocolate. Fair trade means that farmers receive a fair pay for the cocoa they produce - enough money to feel their families, send their children to school, and pay their workers. Chocolate labeled Fair Trade does not allow for child slavery or for abusive child labor. Spread the word to friends and family.

With Halloween just around the corner in the months to come, help spread the word.

Posted: 5:25 am EDT August 30, 2011Updated: 6:31 pm EDT August 30, 2011

 AT THE SCENE: Images Of Crash

The crash happened along westbound Interstate 4 in Lake Mary at around 4:30 a.m., west of State Road 46 near mile marker 100.

Troopers said 28-year-old Randalh Ignacio was traveling on his motorcycle at a high rate of speed on I-4 westbound and for an unknown reason, he rear-ended a pickup truck. They said he then fell off the bike and into the traffic lanes.

FHP said Ignacio was then run over by another vehicle, but the driver of that vehicle did not stop. Charges are pending against that driver, according to FHP.

Troopers said 29-year-old Justin Adams was driving the pickup that Ignacio rear-ended and he did stop after the crash. He was not injured in the crash and he does not face charges.

FHP said the accident appears to be Ignacio's fault and said he had a history of traffic violations.

Troopers said Ignacio was wearing a helmet. However, they said they are awaiting results to find out if alcohol was a factor in the crash.

Traffic was backed up for hours as crews worked to clean up the road.

The crash remains under investigation.

Warning: The following video may cause extreme laughter. Narrated by, Randalh Ignacio, "Pasta A La Foot."

Rest In Peace Randy Pants. <3

Going home...

I left for Virginia last week to go home for a visit. Most people go back to where they came from to visit family, go to weddings, emergencies, but never to say goodbye. I felt like this visit home for me was to say goodbye. I don’t mean it in the sense that I’ll never come back or I’m forgetting people but I wanted to remember certain people, situations, and moments to the fullest before I move on to the next chapter of my life. It’s a significant change and I wanted to make sure that I kept certain people close to my heart. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to see everyone that I would have liked, I was incredibly grateful for the people I did see. 

People come into our lives all the time. There are friends we’ve have since childhood, enemies befriended during a mutual time of need, and friends who simply grow together but never grow apart. I’ve learned over the years who my true friends are. I suppose this visit was to make sure that they all knew that. They are my second family. I love you all!
