Forced to Relax

December 13, 2012


I've been in the Turks & Caicos Islands for the last few days

I've been in the Turks & Caicos Islands for the last few days. I'm airing out my brain and focusing on a new year of exciting projects. I usually come down here with a core east-coast group: Rose, Mark, and of course Nancy - and my west-coast friends Joyce and Michael Ostin, who worked on Madonna's Like A Virgin with me, and has been one of my best friends since.

I bring people whose company I really enjoy and always invite new folks to the Amanyara experience. It's during this quality time when I stop and count my blessings.

This trip I convinced my old friend Angela Yee, and new friend recording artist and upcoming TV star Lore'L, to take a real holiday. I know how important vacationing is to rejuvenating oneself. Like me, most of my friends are workaholics, and workaholics must be Forced to Relax.

Quality holiday time allows me to stop and count my blessings


I convinced my old friend Angela Yee get the full Turks & Caicos experience


Angela convinced her friend recording artist and upcoming TV star Lore'L to get into the total TCI experience


You are not legit on Turks & Caicos until you eat a conch pistol


Angela went first and Lore'l chumped out


Finally Lore'l Woman-ed up!


Lore'l almost lost her $hit but she made us proud and swallowed the pistol. Now she's down for life!


Lore'l about to recover...


Then she laughed it off, true gangsta style


The girls called Rose over to the pool


Rose goes to take a last swim with Ange and Lore'L before they leave


Rose, Angela, & Lore'l have their last dip together


Everyone hated to see them go but I know they'll be back because Amanyara forces you to relax!
