What What??!!

Had to post this...After watching this, I have laughed enough for a week.




Samwell - What What

RIP

Hope everyone had a good thanksgiving! Mine wasn't too hot, my uncle that I wrote about in my last post passed thanksgiving night. The funeral is tomorrow and I can't make it because of finals coming up and this major group project that I have to present. I really hate it, but I'm glad that I got to see him before he passed.

Pray for me during finals!

It's been a while...

My bad for not writing more (well not that anyone reads this thing) but in case someone does, it's been crazy! I am so glad that this year is coming to a close. I learned so much in 2007, I finally feel like I am honestly a grown up now. One major lesson that I have learned is not to settle for less that what I deserve. I so realize that now. The person that I thought would always be my #1, the man that I had put all of my time and energy into for over two years, turned on me over some he said, she said mess. Most people call me picky about my men, but I have a darn good reason. I REFUSE to settle for a man who does not treat me with respect, who is not honest with me even when it makes me mad, who does not value me and and listen to my innermost dreams and concerns and thoughts. I want a man in my life who gives back what I give to him, and then some. I feel like I have given so much to people and it has left me feeling empty. That's why I'm focused on doing ME right now. I want to fill myself up before I can give anything else out.

**Random thought**
Why did 7 police cars just fly down my wet street? One of them almost hit the Camry. I love my lil car, I would have acted up if my mirror was on the ground in the morning.
**I'm done**

But Brittany needs to do what makes HER happy. Not what some man likes. With the last guy that I dated, I felt like I had to be someone else in order for him and his family to accept me. I understand that around his moms and stuff that I can't curse or wear my leopard print booty shorts, but I refuse to change the person that I am because of YOUR standards. A strong, educated, beautiful black woman raised me right. So if you don't like me, sorry for ya.

**Random thought 2**
I see a fire truck now. And a bunch of people hopping out of cars and stuff. Uh-oh. I hate living in the hood I swear. I can't defend it any longer.
**done**

I wanna give a big hug to my Uncle Clayton. He is battling bone cancer right now and they don't think he is going to make it much longer. He was always my favorite uncle, he was my grandfathers' younger brother and he was the glue that kept our family together. He took over as a father role for my mom and a grandad role for me after my grandfather passed in 1995. I am going to miss him so much!

Happy Thanksgiving to all, I have so much to be thankful for, my health, my family, my abilities. GOD IS GOOD!!!

See ya xoxoxox

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!!!
