This past weekend was very special for me because it's my first time doing a walk to raise awareness and money for the Sickle Cell research... I was lucky and happy to be part of something so special, I met really nice people who only have one goal which is to spread the word about Sickle Cell, and how important it is for everyone to get tested to find out if they are a carrier. A simple blood work that's all it takes.. The walk was a 10K walk and i am very proud of myself to start and finish the walk and by the way it was a great to exercise...
Here's why the weekend was great... the Sickle Cell Walk..It was great with African-American Day parade, the JETS beating the Patriots, the MANNING BOWL... A new show on HBO BoardWalk Empire...

On Sunday I went to the African-American day parade in Harlem NY and it was a fun parade along with great weather..It was my first time being at the parade and i had a great seat..

Sunday was it really great sunday in the sports for all the JETS FANS because the NY JETS beat the Patriot New ENGLAND... The quarter of the JETS Mark Sanchez was brilliant, he threw 3 touchdown passes and along with their strong defense stopped the Patriots and Tom Brady run....

The Manning Brothers...
