Good Friday and Earth Day

I think it was quite cool that both of these holidays fell on the same day. I still had to work today as well, but the day went smooth and kind of fast. Both of these holidays make up a huge portion of our lives one way or another.

Earth Day
I'm an environmental buff *hence what my major was in college* so I celebrate every Earth Day by wearing green of some sort. I love to promote environmental awareness. Our earth is definitely one thing we take for granted. I will continue to spread the message because everything starts with one. One day a few years back I stumbled upon an awesome shirt in JCPenney when I worked at the mall. I just had to have it. It made a statement "The Future is Green" and it also looked quite stylish. Plus everyone knows green is my signature color as well. I wore this shirt today at work and people gave me so many compliments. They also know I try to wear something that corresponds with holidays. When I got home my mom took some nice shots of me in my outfit. Pardon my tired look, it was after work but I wanted to take photos regardless.

What I Wore




Good Friday
I saved this part second because people remember the last thing first. Today is a holiday where we remember the sacrifice that Jesus Christ has done for us. It is about how he died on the cross for our sins. Today in Newark, NJ various churches came together to for the Stations of the Cross walk. It was led by Rev. Mamie Bridgeforth and various Newark and area churches. Even the councilman of the West Ward, Ronald C. Rice, attended. They sang hymns and there was a preacher who spoke. There was a young man dressed as Jesus and another one dresses as a Roman. They carried a large cross. It is a very major event that is held every year, this time I was able to capture some footage and photos. Wish they were better but I was outside of my job without my coat and it was cold.
