Wish List....


Just a couple items that I would LOVE to have this summer! I love these sandals but why in the world are they $225?? And these smoking HOT A.R. Trapp troubadour sunglasses from J. Crew.....$395!!! I guess I can just HOPE they go down in price. I love flat sandals in the summer, they are comfty but cute and can pretty much be worn with everything.

Hmmm maybe I can check ebay for these items...I'm just so impatient when it comes to the whole bidding thing... *sigh*

Your Problems are a wakeup call for CREATIVITY!

This isn't going to be a long post but I just wanted to put up this statement I saw on twitter this morning in case someone else was feeling how I feel...

Recently I found out I didn't get a job I really wanted and I was PISSED!! it's frustrating when you continuously apply to jobs that you KNOW you are qualified for but it's always something that hinders you from obtaining them. So I got on my f*** the gov't job tip lol A good friend of mine told me maybe it's not meant for me to get a gov't job or at least not right now. She pointed out lots of my other talents and she made some really good points! A lot of time I know I stick to what is safe but I really have to push myself to get out of that mindset. Since then I have really been thinking CREATIVELY of other options. But the biggest step is TAKING ACTION with these creative thoughts....

Looking forward to clearing my mind with my girl Lauren tomorrow taking pics and enjoying the weather.

Now I Understand....

"I wish you would have done this a long time ago, but now it's too late"

A lot of times we take opportunities and people for granted. When people give us thing openly and freely we don't see them as important chances to progress and move forward. Then when they are gone that's when we want to "put in work". In a lot of instances we are given second chances over and over but who are we to expect others to wait until we are ready to step up and do what's right?? As far as relationships, that person who loves us would really like to believe in us but once they have been let down time after time it's hard for them to put themselves out on the line again. We may so badly want to give/get just ONE MORE CHANCE to prove our/themselves but is it fair to the other person involved?? What makes it even hard is if someone else has stepped up to the plate...if things are flowing natural we should just roll with it. I feel we are so used to chaos that if things are going well we get scared of the good feeling. Yes, they will not always be perfect but it also doesn't mean it isn't right because there is no drama. Whatever is meant to happen will occur whether we like it or not so why not go with what feels good especially if it's something we've asked for...

Love is a powerful force but decisions should not be based on LOVE alone. We need to look at the facts at hand...It's always scary to let go of those people and situations that sometimes serve as security blankets but that may be what's need to step into that next level of Peace...Success and/or True Love

All situations are learning tools. One of my situations have just taught me many valuable lessons! Hmmm decisions...decisions

"Artist Shouldn't Make Albums Unless They Got Something To Say"

This 9/11 Concert was the best Jay concert I've ever been to! I don't have too much more to say about this video....Gives a good look at why people have to experience a show at "The Gardens" at least once in their lifetime! The place was built to rock out (literally)

John Mayer kills D.O.A on the guitar!!

A Star is Born....

I've been listening to J. Cole's mixtape non stop since yesterday and I have become a fan!! I see why my man Hovi picked him up with the quickness. Jermaine Cole aka J. Cole was the first artist Jay-Z signed to RocNation and the track that won him over was "Lights Please"....the lyrics are so relatable to the average person. As a matter of fact his entire mixtape "Best Of, So Far: J. Cole" is the truth! It's nothing flashy about this artist, he is just trying to tell the truth through stories that everyone can identify with. The beats are nice and laid back...good driving music :-)

In case you are unfamiliar with this up and coming star he was featured on The Blueprint 3 track "A Star Is Born". Check out his interview with Complex Magazine to see how his persistence and drive got him to be signed with the hottest rapper in the game....

Pay attention!

My Main B!*$^.....

I had to post about the crazy things "men" say! Maybe I'm old school but what female would take pride in being a guy's "main bitch"?? I had someone use this term when trying to plead their case and express their love for me then in the same breath say how much I was respected by him...WTF! Then they wondered why I #ontothenext'd them. If any guy feels that is ok then we are clearly on two totally different levels and there is nothing that I can say that they will understand. The sad part is the guy was really trying to get me to understand why that was ok...When picking partners I do see now how difference in upbringing and maturity levels play a major role in relationships. Not to say that a guy from troubled childhood would never be able to please someone who had a stable household but there clearly has to be tons of growth as well as having an open mind. A ignorant, stubborn male is not a good look! I know there are a lot of men who feel they know it all but as long as they are open to the opinions and viewpoints of others progress can be made. Sometimes us women hold on to things we know we need to let go of but once things begin getting disrespectful that is when it's time to "get to steppin"!

I just had to vent a little, I knew this was going to happen but looking at a person's potential rather then what they are actually SHOWING always gets me in trouble.

Back to work from my three day sick vacation...I enjoyed my "Boobie" lol during my days off!! Thank God it's Friiiiiddaaaayyyyy...show love to everyone even those we feel don't deserve it and remember becoming a "main bitch" is never the title to strive for.

Tremaine....

Tremaine, as I call him, aka Trey Songz has turned himself into a real grown azzzz man and SEX SYMBOL since dropping his new album "Ready"....his new video debuted today "Neighbors Know My Name".

Enjoy....I know I am *clicks play*
