Love...

I was browsing through my favorites on my computer and I came across this beautiful slide show...this man really did it big for his lady!

Not that this is what I want from a guy when I get proposed to but it was just beautiful to see how deeply this man cared for her and the lengths that he went to in order to make this a special day for her. I was also impressed with the details...gold dipped roses? Nice.

But however you want to express your love for someone, make sure that it is sincere and honest, and the other person will feel as if they won a million dollars. Whether you propose in the park on a Sunday afternoon, or you throw a big party for the whole family, if you do it right...with the right person...everything else will melt away and all that matters will be the two of you...

I'm back!

It's been a little while but my life has been CRAZY over the past 2 weeks. Last weekend, my mom and I went to Memphis to visit my uncle. He was supposed to be a home resting but he was admitted to the hospital the day that we arrived. He is not doing so well and it really sucks because he was the one that took over the "grandfather" role for me after my grandfather (his older brother) passed 12 years ago. I am really going to miss him, but I don't want him suffering. In other news, things are still the same with the "old friend" I so wish I could go see him, but our schedules are just totally opposite. I am going to go to one of his games this season since he is graduating in May =) I am so proud of him, he pulled himself up from nothing and is about to graduate from college and go to grad school. Even hood niggas can come up if they really want it, and he is a prime example! If only my ass could graduate lol...

a day in the life...

i'm bored so i'm gonna do a post about why a typical day is like in my life. i'm boring, so here goes.

6:15 am- wake up. my mom usually comes in and starts taking hair products out of my room around this time so i usually get on up when i hear her.

7:00- leave for work. i work @ starbucks, and my job is 10 mins away. i'm supposed to be there @ 7:30, but i usually stroll in around 7:45. i hate my job.

1pm - leave work. i have class @ 1:25 and i only have to drive 2 mins. to get to school. i usually walk and burn the calories while eating a hot dog from the stand lol.

5:00 - leave school (on mon. and wed.) i'm usually depressed by now, so i meet up with my mom and we go shopping or home.

6:00- get home and watch tv until 9. if i have a date or something i go out around this time. or i make my run to target. i should be doing homework, but that can wait till later.

10:00- finish eating dinner and start my homework. i usually check e-mail around this time, or chat on the phone with my boo thang.

midnight-pass out on my bed which is covered with my laptop, books and papers.

6:15 am- do it all again.

Told you I was boring.
See ya!!!

well well....

So Saturday my oldest and dearest friend came to town for her sister's baby shower. So while the shower was being held, I took calls from my mom at home to find out the status of the UK & LSU game. I'm happy to say that my number 17 wildcats came away with the win over the number one team! After the shower we went to 4th street and met up with some friends who were already going. I had fun, danced the whole time that I was there and ended up meeting up with an old friend after the club =). The weekend was pretty cool. I had to work @ 8am Sunday...so you know I was ready to pass out the whole time I was there. Luckily, I only had to work 8-1. I came home and passed out. I'm on fall break now, and I have a ton of homework. But have I started on it? No. Maybe I'll do it a little later. Man I hate school. I work too much, and I think that is the reason why I am so over schoolwork. I'm a little excite about reconnecting with the old friend the other night...I really like him so hopefully things may work out! Peace!!!

Unappreciated

So...I guess I've been thinking about you-know-who really heavy lately. I'm kinda sad that it's all over, but in a way I am relieved. I guess I should be happy that I didn't waste too much time in a relationship that wasn't going anywhere...but I still miss him. I miss how he smells, I miss how he talks, I miss how he drives....I just miss him. It just seems like I worked so hard for this relationship to work...I really wanted it...but he didn't. And I can understand his reason for doing the things that he did...to a point. I was just trying to be there for him while he was going through all of these things. And he kept pushing me away. And now it's over. I admit, I wasn't perfect in the relationship, but I was always honest. And I always tried. So now it's kinda weird not going out with him, or even calling him anymore. I erased his number from my phone so I wouldn't have to see his name all of the time. But now I want to call him...I don't know what I wanna do!!!!! Help!

The B*tch is Back!!!

So that annoying lady at work is back from vacation. Ahhh!!! Anyhoo, I've been extra busy these past few days. I've been car shopping, catching up on homework and basically doing the things that I need to do. I'm thinking about cutting back at work, I am working 30+ hours a week and taking 16 credit hours at school. Sometimes, I wonder how I have time to have a social life at all. I did go out Saturday night, we went to this club called "Billy's" and I distinctly remember my mom hanging out there with my aunts when I was little. Since I just turned 21, I didn't know what to expect. All I remember is I got one long island ice tea and by the time the cup was half empty, I was doing the cupid shuffle all ass backwards. Then I had to use the restroom so I had to drunkenly navigate myself to the bathroom and wait in line. I almost fell off the toilet lol. When I was leaving the restroom I saw this dude who cut hair across the street from the kroger that I used to do cakes at. He was trying to holla lol. He is like 34! I tried to kick game to him when I worked at the store that he came in because he looked like Bobby Valentino. But I was so messed up I told him to come find me. Can't remember if he did or not...
And not this dude dancing all up on me talking about "I just got out the pen 12 hours ago...i'm trying to stick something" I wiled out on him so quick! Nasty, probably got AIDS. I got my play brother to come over to me and old dude bounced quick. I guess he didn't want to ruin his first night out lol. Well, i'll post more tomorrow. I need to come up with daily themes lol. Holla!

perfectly imperfect...
