A New Year?

The new year is slowly approaching us with only 2 left in 2008. Great year for some, Terrible for the rest. I guess I'll be in that "terrible" category. I mean, I'm not going to complain because it can ALWAYS be sooooooo much worse. I guess I should consider myself lucky. This is going to be a short blog, however. I slice the f*** out of my hand at work 2 days ago. It's on my left hand but now I'm starting to realize how important your hands really are.
Well, I hope everyone has a great and safe New Year! And hopefully, 09 will be SO MUCH better!! :( I hope...

Happy Holidays

I know I haven't put anything up worth reading or whatever. Just been working those extra holiday hours. To everyone (even you haters) MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
Enjoy the holiday with your loved ones and remember what it really is about.

Jayden bigger than daddy?!

A while back, I seen the movie A Pursue of Happiness and I was like, "wow, Will's son is pretty good". And I didn't expect to see him in another til he was a little older. Then I saw his sister got a little jealous and thought she could act better, so they put her in I Am Legend. She didn't have a co-starring role as he bro had but she was in it enough to tell if she could act or not. Her, not so much. I hate to say it but her little brother is a lot better than her. Maybe she'll get better with time, though. Maybe.
So I also notice that Mr. Jayden is in that new movie about the world standing still-an old classic...(I didn't say it was good!) And I'm like, "Jeez! This boy is not going to stop!" Well, I saw a pic of him on the red carpet or something in Japan for the premier and I'm like, "Whoa, this boy is going to be big! Maybe bigger than his father!" Well...maybe not yet. He has a while to go, a few more bubble-gum rap albums, a TV sitcom series and few blockbuster hits to go. BUT he's almost there! Go Jayden! Can this boy be stopped? Eh, he might. Just being realistic.
Maybe one day when I have kids, he'd be the Will Smith of their time.

18 kids?!!??! And they are all yours!? AHHHHH!

I know everyone has heard about the Duggar Family. If not, their this Mormon family in Arkansas that has now 18 children! That is TOO much for me. 2 is too much for me...LOL
It's great and all if you can afford it and you have time for all of them and really love kids, but in this recession, why do you want more mouths to feed?!?
I'm not trying to be mean or anything or even say they are bad people for this...
but you gotta know when enough is enough.

David Blaine = Jesus?

OK, I know I might be WAAAAAAAAAAAAAY wrong for this but I just have to make this point. You know how people say that Jesus will come back to earth and he will be at the point where you don't know it's him? Like, he could be a homeless man or something? And isn't the world all nuts right now anyway right at the moment where he may come back?? Hmm...ok, so I was watching David Blaine's show...I don't know the name of it. Shame on me. And I see some of the tricks he do. Some of them aren't really magic...it's just him doing stuff. But the ones that are "magic" are like really good and makes you wonder, HOW DID HE DO THAT?!?! Well, I was thinking since he can make an empty can of beer turn into a full unopened can of been right before your eyes, this man must not need money. He can eat out of the trash all day, literally. He can make a half eaten sandwitch to a hot fresh sandwitch. Also, noone knows what the heck this man's ethnicity is. (I know I don't.) This guy hasn't hurt himself yet...that says a lot. Now for my question, could David Blaine be Jesus??? (the more modern version) Come on...think about it. And does anyone REALLY know the whole story of the bible being that a bunch of chapters/pages are missing out of it anyway depending on what verison you get? (because Mr.King James didn't like the way a few things went.) Just think about it...
Til next time...

Concentrate, you idiot!!

UGHH!
Sometimes I mean to go through with something and it doesn't get done til the very last second. Y'all know what I mean. It's like for example, I'll say "I'm going to get in the bed in about 20 minutes". Next thing I know, I'm up for another 2 hours just reading stuff and shopping...killing time for what? I don' t know. Maybe I'm a little ADD...I hope not.
Lately, my hours at work has increased, so I'm at work ALL the time now. The only time I 'm off is the days I'm suppose to be at school. On the weekends, I defiantly hate because I work til late and have to come right back less than 9 hours the next day. My feet hurt and if it wasn't for the HIGH intake of caffeine from the coffee, I'd be really tired. But I can't really complain, it's a job. And I do get money. Not a lot, but I do get some. So, it's all good at the end of the day. And the people are pretty cool too...the ones I work with. The customers are a different story. LOL
School is...uhh...well I'm waiting for it to end. I still get depressed walking down the halls. I still wish I could of found a better place before I enrolled there and I kinda wish I didn't owe so much in loans. haha, that's life for ya, huh?
My cat is acting hella hyper. He's a teenager now and I can't tell him nothing. He thinks he's on top of the world and owns it too. I still love him, though.
Lately, I been drawing more...sketching I guess. I am finally getting some sort of motivation back. I get inspired by the oddest things sometimes.
Right now, Ghostbuster 2 is on...and I kinda start reminscing about the good old days before everything gotten so corrupted, and just started watching it. It's still pretty good movie.
Even though my heat is on in my house, I'm still cold as crap. I have on sweat pants...it's not working. Ughh.
Sometimes, I think of better...more interesting things to write about but I always forget by the time I'm by a computer. And I do have internet on my phone now, but how lame is that to write a long blog on your phone...and drive at the same time?? Not cool at all.
As I think about where my life is at this point, I'm not too disappointed...there's always room for improvement. I'm still young-ish and I haven't quite figured out what I am, suppose to be or wanna be yet. I guess that's ok. Am I happy? So far, so good. Like I said, there would be a few things I would try to fix or change. But I think I'm pretty happy. My parents are still here, I have my brothers. I have ... a few? good friends. I'm with someone I really love. I'm in school. I have a job. I'm talented. I have my health.
One thing I know that I want to do but can't start is a comic. I have a hard time sticking to one subject or plot or whatever. Then sometimes it's not that funny or nobody gets it but me. Or sometimes it's one of those jokes where after you explained for about half an hour and they get it but it's not funny anymore because you took so darn long. Then I thought about doing a graphic novel. I probably won't finish it. Then the story would change up by the end. You'd be reading it saying, "this story about a lonely girl and her dog is pretty good, I wonder how she's going to make it to Harvard." Then when you get to the end, you'll be like, "so she's a vampire who can fly only in the daylight but never do because she'll fry, her dog died of cancer and Harvard doesn't exsist in that world". What da hell?!?! Yea...I can't stick to one subject...must be that ADD again.
One day, I will perhaps. Maybe. lol You'll know if I do.
Well, I think I'm going to actually take myself to bed now. I said this over and over again. But I keep fighting sleep like a baby.
Til next time.

Long, Hard and Green

Yes, it's another addition of Food Porn.
Today's food porn is: Cucumbers. I'm not talking about a plan cucumber. I'm talking about chopping them up, putting some vinegar, salt and pepper on it! That's what I'm talking about. And you can't just do any cucumber. It has to be long, hard, kinda thick and NO soft spots. The cruncher, the better!! And if you think this is nasty, I say don't knock it til you try it! :) YUUUM! So get you a nice one and chow down! Makes a great non-fat snack. PEESH!!!

Why I don't listen to V-103 no more...

For about a while now, I been listening to V-103 and I like the station a lot. But I really hate it when I turn on the radio and I hear the same song I heard 5 minutes before I stepped out the house. Then I would go to school and get in the car after school and hear the song again. That's just...UGH... So, I stopped listening to V-103 for that very reason. Now it takes a very dumb song to make me stop listening to a station completely but this song just about done it. What song you ask? "Pop Champagne" By Jim Jones and Ron ...uhh what's his face... I hate that song to death! And I tried to give the video a chance then I saw this lady with a billion tattoos on her back and she was doing some dance trying to show off her tattoos. I was so ashamed. Where is the music going these days!? Come on!! We're in a recession!! Who has money to "pop champagne"??!? Ughh. Man, I'm done!!!

Why can't I get the truth?

1:27am and all I can hear is the sound of someone practicing the bass guitar and this terrible Disney show the Replacements in the background. My cat is sleep by the Christmas tree and my boyfriend is sound in the other room. Sometimes I have a hard time just going to sleep even when I'm tired. I didn't have too bad of a day. I went up to the school to handle some business, went to my job to get my check and ended up staying longer than planned, went to the store for a few things, to the ATM and back home. It rained all day. I wanted to stay in bed because honestly I didn't feel too good. But this was my only off day from school and work to go and do almost everything I needed to get done. I feel a little better about myself. I guess...
Then I cooked, and played Tombraider for a few hours. I think I'm actually going to finish one of those games for once. I NEVER bet a Tombraider game before. Kinda sad because I been playing for years and you think I'd bet one of them. But I always get stuck on some part and give up and NEVER go back. And that's it. I never bet it. I'm trying to get better with that.
I thought about my best friend today and how we use to be. While everyone I may talk to about the subject don't quite see how big of a deal it is to me, I kinda just think about it when I'm alone. A lot of times I feel I don't fit in anywhere. I talk to people and whatnot but I never feel fully comfortable. It's always something I have to hold back-like my sense of humor. It's not all bad but it can be tooken the wrong way. Ugh...
I don't feel like I really have any friends anymore. I mean, the ones who say they are friends, aren't really. And the ones who say they will always be there, never do. And the ones who say they care, forget within the same day you told them about your issue. So, where does that lead you? Feeling like s***. Or at least, I do. The friends I do have, my mom, boyfriend and brother are great. But it's only so much you can do. You're mother doesn't wanna hear about what you and your boyfriend did last Valentine's day. You're boyfriend doesn't wanna give you advice on how to "get that bitch back" when you felt like you're so called friend don't you wrong. You're brother doesn't wanna hear about your girly problems. I don't know. I guess I'm ok with it. Just sometimes you want that shopping buddy again. Or that from another girl's point of view. Or someone who won't judge you and who knows you so well that they can stick up for you when someone says "she's weird". Well, my boyfriend got my back in that area. But can you imagine going shopping or clubbin' with your mom??? Ugh...or your brother?! Am I lame?!
I guess I'm trying to say I miss my friend. But it seems she doesn't care about me. We aren't close like we use to be. It's always weird to say "my best friend" or when someone referr to when we use to be how we were. We use to be inseparable. And now, we're just grown apart. We went two complete different directions. I never thought I'd see the day. Sometimes I feel that if I didn't move away to go to school, we would of still been cool and something would of worked out. We would of still been close and hanging out when we're bored and telling eachother everything and just having a friend you can borrow things from. Stupid stuff like that. It would of been on a totally different level than what it was when were in middle school and high school. We could of chat everynight after work. We would go to the mall on a friday, to lunch on saturday and done laundry on sunday. Not that I want to spend that much time with a girl (trying not to sound gay) but just to have that friend I can call when I'm bored and wanna just hang out. But I don't have that no more. She's too tied up into men and everything else to care what's going on with me. She made a huge deal out of me not wanting to talk to her anymore after the incident when my bro died. Then when I decide to squash it and let it go, she acts like I'm not there. She talks to everyone but me. She's TOO BUSY to call me sometimes or to actually hang out with me when we make plans. Everytime we made plans, she cancelled on me for some bogus reason after another. Most of the time it was for a man. That's where we've gone!? I feel like I don't even know her anymore, and to a point, I don't.
And why do people feel they have to hide things from me? I mean, if you say one thing and do another, what's that?! Why would you say you'll do this or won't do this anymore and do it? Or swear on everything it's not like that but it is? Or act like things are ok but they aren't!? I don't get it.
I guess with all the ranting and whining, I'm just saying I miss my friend.
And I just wish we didn't lose touch.
Well, I'm going to try to get some sleep. LONG day tomorrow. I hate men's magazines. I need a better past time.
Til next time...

Cadillac Records

So a few days ago, I saw these neon pink passes sitting on top of the punch clock at work. They were passes to that new movie Cadillac Records. For a screening or something. (Never been to one of those before, so I thought "let's go!!") So, I got one for me and my boo. We left the house around 6:40 and arrived around 7:35. Don't ask what happened! It was pretty good for a free movie. LOL It was a lot better than what I thought it was going to be like. I mean, they had a lot of funny parts, though it's not a comedy. I like the casting. And the story was pretty good. Lots of love-angles. I'm not going to go into the movie just in case someone wants to see it. After all, it's not out in theaters yet. If I had to grade it on a scale 1 to 10, I'd give it a 7. And if we're talking school terms, I'd give it a B. I nice bold B. There were a few parts that were kinda left out for me and what not, but the music was great and the characters, once again, where awesome. And the commericals are a little off about that movie. First of all, they make it seem like another generic black people movie and it's not. One of the main characters was Adrein Brody!! He was good, by the way. And second, they put Beyonce ALL over the previews and movie poster as if she was the main character. Yes, her character she played is still alive today but man, what's with the overshininess! (made that up) Anyway, somewhere in the movie I missed a good 5 minutes because somebody decided they wanted to bring their 5 kids with them (2 of them being babies.) Well, this baby started crying and the mother refused to walk outside with all of that. Of course we were sitting right behind the noise. UGH!! And everyone looked around, including us. So out of nowhere some guy yells from the back, "Ay, take that baby outside!!" And a lot of people started laughing, including us. So the daddy got up but his girlfriend (?) told him to sit down. Funny thing, the baby stopped. LOL.
Anyway, I'm going to close this one, I got a long day tomorrow.
til next time...

Oh yea, that wig Beyonce had on was TERRIBLE....Stop it.

Days getting longer

Now that day light savings hit, I thought the days will get shorter. For me, not so much. I work longer hours, I work on a lot of school work and freelance work and I also have those home duties of cleaning, cooking, eating and taking care of everything. Yea yea yea, blah. And now another holiday is coming. Christmas. I use to love Christmas so much. I still love the lights, the weather, the songs, spending time with family and whatnot. (it snowed yesterday while I was at school)
I'm trying to figure out how to get all the important people out the way and what to get them? This shouldn't be too hard...right? Yea yea... it's going to be really cheap. lol ok, let's stop talking about this. So, I'm almost done with the whole transfer policy getting into another school. We shall see how that goes. I tried to get some kind of credit card and they sent me a letter in the mail telling me why they couldn't give it to me. Ugh.
I still get retarded comments on this thing but something is better than nothing, right? I guess.
Well, I gotta write 3 essay...so, I got my work cut out for me...yea...
til next time.

Stuck in my head.

When I heard Beyonce was coming out with a new album I was like, here we go! I mean, I don't get me wrong, she's very talented but her last album didn't show me much and that single "single ladies" is kinda...uh...I don't know the word I'm looking for. I wasn't really feeling "If I were a boy" at first. First of all, it seem like she was taking Ciara's concept-ish. It's almost the same song but as I listen to it again, it's a little different. Lyric wise, of course. Then I watched the video. It was touching. I like the song a lot now and I can't get it out of my head. I've been listening to it for the past 2 days. LOL I'm not going to lie, that video made me cry. At first I was like, "dang, poor guy" then when it switched over, I was like "oh, wow. poor girl". After all, it was the point of the song. I'm glad the song with the video because for some reason we have a lot of that going on. LOL Well, anyway...I'm posting the video. Watch if you haven't seen it. Watch if you wanna anyway. Peesh! :)

Thanksgiving!!! And the rest...

My best friend,me,my little cousin, and my other best friend.

I know it's been a while. Yea, been kinda busy. I started getting scheduled to work more now, I guess for the holidays. That's good...and bad. Well, let's see. I went to my hometown for Thanksgiving and saw my family and closest friends. It was nice. I had a great time. Though a few people I would love to see come didn't come, it was nice for what it's worth. We started eating around 3-ish. My uncle came by and so did my girl, Ashley. My cousin, Joe Joe stopped by for a second. Then the next door neighbors came by for a second. I made a pumpkin spice cake. And it looked scary for a second but it tasted great! It gotten eaten quick! Yaaay!! :)
So I went to my aunt's house and saw my uncle and my cousins from Miami, Detroit, and Washington D.C. I'm so happy I got to see them though I missed a few people. I had to go back home because unfortunately I had to work on Black Friday. UGHHH! Oh well...
And that's about it. Been working late hours for a week-ish now. So, I been tired... so If I don't blog much, that's why. Man, the holidays....

What's wrong with that??

So, I been working A LOT for the past few days and I'm like, super tired when I get home. Oh well, I need the money. Anyway, on my lunch break I went to Starbucks because they have the most delicious pumpkin spice lattes ever!!!!! (keep in mind, I work at another coffee house called Seattle's Best Coffee, owned by Starbucks) Well, came back and didn't get a chance to drink it all, so I had to bring it back to work with me. Well, one of my co-workers give me the hardest time about it. Like, why would I go to Starbucks on my break? Cause I need the caffeine and the flavor, man!! :) Double yum, homie! lol Anyway, so I'll probably never hear the end of that....til I do something else dumb. LOL My question is, is it THAT wrong?! I know others have done things like this!! Like this lady said she worked at publix but shopped at Kroger! That's genius! You know why? Cause Kroger is really cheap compared to Publix! You go, Lady!! Anywa, that ends this really short dumb blog...til next time.

What's up with that?

When I go home to visit my mom, I notice how dark it is (at night) and it's sad that they haven't put some street lights up by now. What if you break down on the side of the road and you don't have a flash light? What are you going to do? Wait for a car with their high beams to pass by you slow enough for you to see the problem?! Ughh. Anyway, I'm done with that. Just wanted to rant. Peesh!

Happy Birthday!!!

My papi aka father just had a birthday and I'm keeping the age a secret! lol But I wanted to wish him a very happy birthday and I love him so much!!

Only a little over a week left 'til Thanksgiving! And Man, I can't wait!! I love Thanksgiving!! This year, I'm cooking the turkey again! Ugh...that's not always good because last year I did a good job until I brought it to my mom's house. I split the juice all over the back seat of my car and my car smelled like fart and chitterlings for weeks! (don't ask why) This year, I got a new plan! I just hope it works. Tomorrow, I'm going to school all day from 8 to 6...basically someone's work shift. I don't get paid tho. Instead I'm spending G's. *sigh*
On the bright side, this week is pay day!! yayyy...another downfall is I don't get paid that much. aww.
Meanwhile, I think this year I'm going to do something different for Christmas... I'm not going to go broke getting everyone I know and love gifts! Instead, just the main people who matter in my life. Sounds a little mean or whatever, but really, it's not. Christmas really isn't about giving or getting in the first place. Once again...FOOD!!! lol...and family, and love and...ok, maybe a little present here and there. I'll be happy to just spend some time with people and eat and take pictures and laugh at nothing!
On another note, I thought eggnog only came in...well, the milky type, but I saw at the store the other week, they also make SOY eggnog!! Isn't that great!?!? Well, not for everyone, just the people who will die/get sick from drinking regular milk. Darn you Lactose!!
Anyway, I'll stop with the rambles...I do feel I can do that sometimes...lol
Til next time. :)

Just 'Cause I Felt Like It

Just 'cause I felt like it...I was on one of the best Hip-Hop review sites ever earlier and so I felt like posting this...
Man, I had a lot to talk about today but I'm tired. I been at work all day and spent the rest of the night looking for my mom.
I'll blog ya laterz....
Til Then

Gas is going low again??

I notice that gas has went down a lot since the beginning of the year. People told me that gas will reach up to $6 by August and we won't see $1-something gas in like, the next 5 years! Well...I drove by the QT and guess what I saw? Gas is $1.98! And I checked around, the lowest gas reported in GA is $1.87...wow! That's a great change. I'm actually happy about this. YAY!! Now, the question is, how long is this going to be this way? Once again, me and my better half were talking and his theory is that the big oil companies didn't realize that raising gas will make them money but how the economy is, people can't afford to buy gas. Which means people going to buy smaller cars. And that means, those American owned cars who get a little bit profit from the oil companies aren't really doing too good. Why? Because if you can't afford gas but you have to get around, you're going to buy a smaller car. And who makes smaller cars that runs on gas? Yes, the Japanesse! Mostly foregin cars is the way to go. They are better on gas and they are cute! lol Heck, I wanted a bettle myself!! (and still do! Shhhh!) So, America are just making these hybrids. But they still lost a lot of money because people are still buying those foregin cars and used ones. Smart move, big oil companies! Way ta go on the future planning! But anyway...I'm through with that... Just wanted to comment on the gas. :) Til next time!

Top business fall, small business rise!

Ya know, I notice while I was riding down the street looking for something to eat, a LOT of business' are going out of business. Is it the economy? I think so. But some stores like Barbecue Grills (a store that sales nothing but grills) probably will go in debt during the cold seasons due to slow sales at the wrong time of the year and still trying to pay the rent for the space. Hmm...
Well, just so you know, that store is going out of business. (didn't see that coming)
Also! A lot of furniture stores are going out of business and some restaurants. And the sadist of them all, Circuit City is closing down!! Thanks a lot, Best Buy! (Nah, I actually like Best Buy)
Soooo...who's still in business?! I know the Dollar Store still doing pretty ok. Wal-Mart, Heck Yea! But the biggest business who's making the big bucks as of now, in my opinion, will have to be....(drum roll please!)
Those people who make the "Going Out Of Business" signs! Come on! That's all you see! And it's the SAME sign on different stores. Nothing different. Just big bold letters, in black, red and Yellow...some poor guy standing on the side of the street holding the sign up for a good 8 hours and when you actually go into the store...just huge percentage signs saying "60% off! 20% off! Everything MUST go!!" Yep, that's who I think is making all the money. The people who opened the sign shop probably told eachother, "One day, everyone is going to need a sign! And when they do, we'll be there..." Something like that.
I don't know, it was a funny conversation actually. I was talking to my boyfriend about it on the way to school, one day. He actually brought it to my attention. I noticed the signs but didn't notice that everyone was buying their signs from the same store!! Wow...
I hope things get better soon. Til then, you go, Going Out Of Business Sign Store!! :)

Aight now!

Look at Will and Jada trying to "get their model on". LOL Really cute pic...(they have more, I'm just putting this one up, though)

Is this movie still coming out??

With a lot of people having complains about the new prez being black and all (like the past few centuries weren't all white presidents) are they going to try not to let black anything have too much or any spot light at all? I know...kinda a dumb broad statement but I'm just curious, are they still going to finish up that Disney movie with the first black princess??? ....
I hope so. I'm interested to see what it would be like.

long day

It' s been a long day, so this post is short.
I went to work. This lady came by and asked did we have a movie with John Travolta doing a voice over for a character. I was like, "WTF??"
That movie hasn't even came out to the movie theater yet. Where does these people be at?? I guess she could of been trying to be the first to get it on DVD for her child or something. I don't know. It still was weird...
Then I went to school and worked for 3 1/2 hours on a digital video project. I'm not going to say what it is...lol
And now I'm at home, about to fall out, typing with the cat in my arms...he threw up a hair ball on the floor. Just what I wanted to come home to...*sigh*
I'll do a better post tomorrow...you're only a day away.

Negative Food Porn

Today's Food Porn entry isn't exactly a positive one. No! This time is about one of the nastiest foods I've tasted in a while.
A few months ago, my boyfriend told me about this peanut butter. He told me somebody gave it to him and it was sooooooooooooo nasty. Now, my boyfriend ain't picky. He'll eat almost anything. (Edible!) So for him to say this is nasty, it can't be good at all. And He also loves peanut butter. Now it's hard for me to find a pic of this crap, so I just got the most generic looking peanut butter I can find. After all, the label on this thing looked very generic. And it's called "All Good Peanut Butter". And believe me, it is NOT all good. So, if you ever run across this catastrophy, look the other way! Run! Cover your eyes! Read a book! Just don't eat that stuff! It's not worth it. You can be homeless and haven't eaten in days, I'll still tell you not to go near that stuff.
I'm signing out! Peace!

Back to nathan

Ok, enough about politics. I'm sure this stuff is all over the place anyway. Why pound it harder through your heads?
So, I'm in the process of transferring schools. I have so much to do to get ready for the new school. I'm nervous as crap. I got so much stuff to fill out and figure out and submit. Deadlines and fees. Everything. I'm so ready to leave where I am, it's not even funny. I'll miss the people and friends I made, but I'm not getting anything out of where I am. And I feel if I stay, I'll only make it harder for me in the long run. I notice that a lot of people from my school who graduated is not doing anything field related to what they went to school for. I get depressed walking down those halls. When I do stuff for a class...I think about "wow, is this really what we are going to do in the real world or is this hypothetical?" I don't know. I don't want to do work based on "what if" or "this would happen in the industry". I'd rather know. You know? I don't know. It's fine if anyone else likes it. It' s just not for me anymore.
Getting up $500 is like trying to win the lottery for me. Almost impossible. *sigh* I'll find some way... somehow.
Man, I haven't did a Food Porn Post in a while...are you starting to miss it? Uh huh...
Well, I gotta go wake up my bookie so he can do his work.
I'll be back...

And by the way...

Anybody know who made and designed his logo? Great logo!

The aftermath!

So after the election or something and people find out who won (Obama), there's mixed feelings all over the place. Some good, some...not so good. Some people are EXCITED as crap! I never seen so many people so happy. South Park even pushed out an episode THAT quick about all this. (My boyfriend and I are still trying to figure out how they did that exactly.) I for one, is glad Obama won. We need a change. We need an intelligent leader with great views and we need peace. I love his family. It's very inspiring. And I think he'll do great as president. A lot of people are worried about lack of experience. That can be an issue but how can you get experience if you don't start somewhere? He seem like he thought a lot of this out. And I say, "have a little faith people". He's not completely in this alone.
Ok ok, I'm sorry but I'm backtracking now. I notice that South Park always has a message in there somewhere or another. That episode was the Obama supports were celebrating TOO hard and the McCain supports were taking him losing to the expreme. I agrees.
It's a big accomplishment Obama won. He worked hard. McCain did, too. He did all he could. In the end, fear and hate will not bring you to victory. Period.
Congrats, Obama.

America has spoken

I'm so happy I got to witness this great moment in history. Obama won. I can't believe it. I was actually doubting that he might not win. It was a good race and yea, there were a lot of stabs thrown out, but I guess playing dirty doesn't pay off in the end. That or people just don't want another Bush in office. I like Obama though. He's a family man with 2 sweet little girls, a loving wife and he knows what's it like struggle. He wants everyone to live comfortable. Not just the rich be rich and the poor stay poor. I think that's fair. This election also proves that America is more sexiest than racist...or are they??? No one threaten to kill Hilary. Well...it's about time for a change. America is suppose to be diverse anyway. Not just one way... I hope Obama does a great job just like Clinton in office. I'm glad everyone got out there and voted. I'm glad I experienced the voting process and I'm glad that my first time voting was on a historical election. I will forever remember this. :) OBAMA '08

P.S. All in all, McCain actually made a good ending speech. It wasn't sour at all. I commend him for that.

....Taking deep breathes...

I'm nervous as crap. It's a close call... anyone can win. But WHO!??! Oh man, this is crazy...I mean, the time has flew... It was like yesterday when the candidates were competing to win our votes and Hilary still trying to stay in the race...and now look at were we are.
So, what will happen if McCain wins? - seems like 4 more years of what Bush has already screwed up. Obama can't run again. Sarah Palin can possibly be our president.
What if Obama wins? -economy has a chance at getting fixed. Sarah Palin will run against him next term. LOTS and LOTS of death threats and attempts.
Hmm...this is just getting really scary.

The Big Day....

May the best man win....

FLASH BACK!!!

You know, back when I was really into wrestling, I use to watch it all the time like it was a soap opera! It's not what it use to be. I was a big fan, sad to say. I loved Stone Cold, Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, Triple H and sometimes...SOMETIMES Rick Flair. Hulk Hogan, he was cool. Macho Man, yea. There's a lot I can't name right now, but I did like a little of everyone. YAY! Mankind personally got on my nerves with those ugly dingy brown pants he was wearing. Anyway, here's a video I was watching tonight reminiscing of the great Hell in a Cell match between Undertaker and Mankind!! Mankind got his butt kicked and STILL got up to fight! WHOA!! Now that's crazy! WOOOOT!!!

Now or Never

Tonight was the last night to go to the haunted house. (Neitherworld) I was invited by a few friends from school to go on Halloween night but I was also suppose to go with my little cousin. Well, things didn't exactly go to plan. So, I ended up sitting at a restaurant with my cousin and her friend talking about random stuff. Ha ha. So, I was suppose to go yesterday with my so-called best friend but it's always some excuse why she cancels plans with me. Then tonight came and it was the last night to go before next Halloween. So, I decided to go tonight. Just me and my boyfriend. And I tell ya, it was so much fun!! This lady told us before we went in that it was SOOOOOOOOO scary. I was like, "Whoa!! Now I'm getting excited!!" I left everything in my car(purse, keys,phone,etc.) so I didn't get that many pictures. (I took a few after ward) I'm not gonna really go into everything about the house, just in case someone wants to go next year I don't wanna spoil it. But there was this room you walk on a bridge but whatever that is surrounding you is spinning and it makes you completely dizzy. I got so dizzy, I fell on the floor. I couldn't get up, so I crawled thru the rest of the bridge. That was nuts! lol And after we got out of the house, I ran to the car to get my camera and took a few pics with some of the monsters. It was fun! The line was long but it moved fast!! Next year, I'm going to try the 13 floor haunted house. That should be interesting. (he he he)

Yesterday was my friend's funeral. Though I wasn't too hype about going...I'm glad I went. I went because I didn't want to not show up because I'd want my friends to come to mines. It was well put together and organized. A lot of funerals I went to were kind of...ghetto or just last too long for no reason. A few friends and family got up and spoke and read poems and sung solos. Her dad got up and spoke as well. It wasn't in the program but he felt he could do it. He was strong the whole time, til he got to explaining the struggles him and his wife went through making sure she was going to be ok and taking care of her til her last days. I wish I could of saw her and spoke to her before all this. I spoke too, but I didn't get to say all I wanted to say because I got choked up and I got even more sad than I was before. I think about her a lot. I hate that had to happen to her. But I'm glad she isn't in anymore pain. I'm glad she isn't suffering from two different cancers. I'm glad I got to know her for this short time. R.I.P. Tiffani Nicole Capers "Tippy"

Happy Halloween

Oh yea, and those who celebrate or just like to wear costumes and get candy,
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Happy Birthday!!

Yet ANOTHER birthday this month. (October must be a good month to be born. LOL) My 1st cousin just turn 21 today! Yes, on Halloween. I felt bad for her when she was younger. People either told her she was bad luck, evil or she got jipped out of gifts! CANDY DOESN'T COUNT AS A GIFT!!! Anyway, she's coming into town so I guess we're gonna hang out. I hope it be fun. I got a funeral and a test to prepare for. *sigh*
Happy Birthday, little cousin!! I LOVE YOU!!!

First time for everything

So today, I got a chance to go out and vote. I'm mad I waited the last day to vote but I did get there extra early. What I thought was getting there 1st was actually like the 40th person in line. Still not bad. I got there at 6:15am. I was standing at the door alone. Then 2 ladies came up behind me. Then some other people. I was like, "Yay! I'm first." Then this guy came down and let us in out of the cold. When we went up the stairs, there was a line of people already waiting. The doors didn't officially open til 8:30, so we had a time to wait. I guess I didn't mind but my feet started hurting after a while. I spoke to 5 women who were close to me in line. It made the time go by fast, thank God. There was a lady in a pink pleather outfit looking like she came from the 80's. She was one of the people running the place but she came drunk. Why would anyone let her still work? After it turned 8:20am, they let us in the room where we could go to the machines. There wasn't many people getting upset or cranky, though there was this guy who got upset with these ladies who got in front of some other people-yet he was waaaaaaaay down the line. That's about it though. After I voted, I felt really good. It was an experience. Being that I was too young to vote last election (darn late birthdays). I'm happy I got to vote. I hope it counts. And I really hope that there isn't going to be any problems with the ballots. I heard about the reports on that and votes being stolen. Tisk Tisk...*sigh*

GO VOTE!!

I wonder

Does anyone ever wonder what's it like to be...dead? I do, all the time. It's strange how things happen the way they do. And it's even more strange when they happen more than once.
I never took too well to deaths and I still don't. But as I got older, I start to feel numb a lot. Like after I cry one HUGE cry. I just sit there and think a lot and then I wonder what's it like to be dead. Is it like how it is on TV? Does your spirit fly over everyone and you watch them weep over losing you? Do you go to heaven or hell or just get stuck in limbo? Or do you just stay in the ground and you don't have no sort of memory at all? I wonder because everyone has their own kind of saying what happens to people when they die. Some say, "their in heaven looking down on you and with the rest of your loved ones." And the rather less religious kind of people will just tell you they are gone and just enjoy the good times. Umm, I wouldn't prefer to hear that, but I guess it's better than telling me some crappy answer like, "Get over it! They are dead!" *sigh* I don't know. Then sometimes I wonder what happens to things they valued the most or did they get a chance to let everyone know how they felt or what not? Supposedly, death is painless. Some people look at it as scary, dark and lonely. What do I see it as? I'm not quite sure myself. I just know I wonder what they do and think after it's all over and where are they and how long? I wonder...
Til next time

Where's my head?

Monday was my mom's birthday. We had a great time. We went out to eat, laughed, took pictures and she got A LOT of gifts. I was even surprised. Her brother really came through this time! ;) To the sweetest lady I know. Happy Birthday, mom! I love you so much! :) You are the best!

08 doesn't seem so great....

Hey everyone,
It's me again. I thought after losing my brother this year, I wasn't going to lose another. Well, l was so wrong. Today, I got an disturbing phone call from my old roommate's phone. It was her mom. She told me she had pasted. I was so shocked and dumbfound...I didn't know what to say or how to react. I just told her I'm sorry, if there's anything I can do, let me know. Really, I just wanted to hug her and tell her I know the feeling. Though I haven't truly gotten over my brother's lost, now I have another to grieve for. I really cared a lot about Tiffany. I called her Tippy. She was a very sweet girl and often misunderstood. I only known her for a little over 2 years now. But just that short time of knowing her, I did realize she was really great friend. She was one of the first people who I met when I moved to Atlanta and who wanted to hang out with me. She was one of the only people who spent my 19th birthday with me when I couldn't go back home to see my family and boyfriend. She taught me how to ride Marta and she gave me advice a few times on men. She also came home with me to my hometown one weekend to hang with me and my friends.With that being said, I will always love her. I'm really hurt that this happened to her, to such a young spirited soul. I pray for her family everyday. I'll never forget her and I'm sorry we didn't get to spend more time together.

Wanna play a game? It's called what's in my purse! I know, I know, sounds a little lame, but hey, you're reading it.

-Car keys And extra keys
-check book (who writes checks anymore)
-4 pens
-3G iPod (black)
-2G iPod nano (silver)
-notepad (just in case)
-calculator (I'm bad with math)
-a lot of receipts
-money pouch (with a little money)

I got a lot of stuff but I don't use everything. When I use a smaller purse, I have a lot. When I use a big one, stuff gets in the way...ugh. I'm not really all into purses but I do wish there was an easier way to carry my stuff.
Til next time.

Ohhh Ahhh, Food Porn

Today's random Pick is ....
Diary Queen's Waffle Bowl Sundaes!! Man they are good as crap!!! If you like ice cream, chocolate or when you eat something, you like to eat it all! This is the stuff for you! My favorite is the Chocolate covered cherry one. (it's originally strawberry but I prefer cherries) They put soft served ice cream in a waffle bowl with chocolate on the rim, cherries, hot fudge, whipped cream and a little red spoon. You eat everything but the bowl. YUUUUM! I'm getting a little excited, I must go.

Ok, I notice that I only been getting comments from people with blogger accounts. UGh! So, I decided to change it up. Now, EVERYONE can comment! :) LOL ( I sound like I'm trying to sale something.) Anyway, I'm just posting to say to anyone who feels the need to say something (besides the Blog Staff) do so! Thanks!!!

Of course I might be late on this but I was in bed with a TERRIBLE stomach ache. I couldn't even go to work today. :( I needs money. But I was checking my email and my bro emailed me a link saying Jennifer Hudson's mother and brother was shot. WOW. That gotta be really REALLY hard. I mean, I know how it feels because I lost my brother in July of this year. It still hard at times. Whenever I see a gun or see the color red, I think of him. There were lots of good times there I think about but I stress myself out in the end because there's NOTHING I can do.
Anyway, it's really sad that she lost those two. I don't know what I'd do if I lost my mom, too. Jennifer Hudson was about to get married and everything. She just released an album. Then this? I'll keep her and many others who've lost someone in my prayers.
The thing that really erks me about when you have a death, it's like no one cares. They say their sorry and then they talk about something else. Do you know how many conversations I had with people about my bro and they just kinda blew me off. Then they'll say "let me know if there's anything I can do for you. I'm here." REALLY!?!? Really? Man, if that's what you call being there for someone, I don't want it. I can suffer alone. Well, anyway...
I'm not gonna rant on anymore about this. Sometimes people gets touchy about deaths. I guess they don't know what to say. I don't really know what to say at times. It's hard, though. God bless Jennifer Hudson, her mom, her brother and her family.
