This weekend was a busy weekend in Atlanta, Ga. I was thankful to go to the fifth annual spin awards and see Apostle Very Howard get an award for Altruistic Award. So proud of the woman she has become and inspiring people from all over the world. Congrats to her she well deserves it.
Also was able to see Emcee N.I.C.E get the Spin awards radio man of the year honoree. Congrats to him also.
They had great performances there also. Got a chance to see T-Rex put on a good show congrats to him.
Congrats to everyone who won and performed, Griff who also co host the Get up Erica show was the host when I tell you he was a great host and so funny. He has no filter and speaks his mind. Glad to be able to be at this award.
Make sure to go follow them for next year awards and events @thespinawards.
Event: Ms Basketball’s 2nd annual Breast Cancer Awareness
By: Cece Hymes
October 23, 2021 was the 2nd Annual Breast Cancer awareness 5K/3K walk and run. This year I have been giving back to the community and volunteering every 3 months. I wanted to do something for Breast cancer month. So, I decided to volunteer for this event.
This was an early event. We had to be there at 6:40 am which I know took me an hour to get there but it was so worth it. Anytime you are doing something for others and helping and giving back is always worth the time. The event was well organized and as always Ms. Basketball has so much good energy and she has so much life.
This event had live music, vendors, food trucks and more. Ms. Basketball also donated to the Survivors nest which was so awesome. I have been following her for a while and she has such great spirits.
Make sure to follow @msbasketball1 and @ihooptoo so that you can participate in this great event next year. Again I am thankful for this experience and cheering everyone on. Shout out to all the survivors.
Finally, I was able to go to Los Angeles. Wow what a site to see. I had so much fun. I was able to see so much over there. Let’s start with some of the great sightseeing places they have. First we went to:
Hollywood Walk of Fame: This was nice. It’s like a strip of stores and the hustle down there is real. Everyone outside with a hustle, selling something trying to get that dollar. I found a couple of names on the stars. Now the traffic is bad, you are moving 5 miles per hour lol. It is the strip but there is a lot to do on the strip. Glad to be able to experience this.
Santa Monica Pier: Now this was nice also the beach was nice the pier was nice a lot of people. We had to get some funnel cake from there. The hustle was real, there were a lot of people listening to music dancing to the groove. One man was walking and dancing off a song he made about tacos. Now that was funny. The sunset was beautiful.
In-N-Out Burger: Now the burger was good here they just don’t offer a lot I was still hungry. They only have this place on the west side and had to try it out to see what the hype was all about. I can say I would definitely come back here and get a burger that had a lot of cheese on it. Burgers are good.
Hollywood Sign: Now this was an experience. We didn’t get all the way to the sign but we got really close. It was nice enough. We always see the sign in the movies so it was exciting to say Hollywood Hollywood. I was glad to experience this and go to this. It is really nice to see at night and how the town lights up.
Long Beach: When I went to Long beach now we went to Yard House over there, Saw the cruise ship and they have a lot of outlet stores. A lot of nice restaurants and places with patios. They have live bands out there and a lot of bars. This is a nice place to enjoy also.
Here are just the top 5 places that I enjoyed while I was in LA. Now the 3 hour difference got me some days. I had to get used to that. My trip was great and well worth it. If you have never been to LA the experience is well worth it. Get out, enjoy and see the scenery. I can’t wait to go back. I do know it’s expensive to live there but depending on what you are doing career wise this could be the place for you.
