Common Live + Harlem + Gay Pride Parade



Common showed his love at the Fort Greene Festival in Brooklyn!!!
It was such a good festival....good music, good food, and good people with good vibes.
His freestyle was absolutely mad. wish he was on stage longer!!

I also met a sweet girl who is writing a fashion blog. She took a photo of me that day, so check it out. ----------->>>>> O.M.O Writes by Samantha: http://omowrites.blogspot.com/


Next day, I decided to get up early and go to the church to hear some gospels.
I went to one of the most famous church, but there was a endless line outside of the door. I was hoping to get in but decided to change the church. I met a girl from Switzerland who has been backpacking for 6 months. She was so sweet and wanted to hear gospels as well, so we walked around Harlem together trying to see where else we could listen to some good gospels.

We went in one of the super local tiny church around 140th St. There were about 10 people there singing together....it was soulful, but it was not what we expected thus we quietly left.....
We ended up going to the Greater Refuge Temple on 124th St. This church was much larger, and the choir was amazing.


After the service, I hit the K-town (Korean Town) with the Swiss girl to check out the Gay Pride Parade. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the gay parade, and I've never missed it for last a couple of years.
This was my first time seeing this parade in NYC, so it was exciting and fun to watch happy people.
