Yikes!

Time check: 2:35 a.m...talk about a crazy week! It's only the third week of school and I've been bombarded with homework! That's the story of a College student right? I've done so much stuff that I don't even remember what I just did lol Procrastination isn't even an option this semester because these assignments aren't about answering questions in the back of a book and reading the chapter! They actually call for thinking and making up business plans and blah blah. There goes my weekend! The bright side of this weekend is that my sister will be coming down to visit and I get to see my gorgeous niece Breanna! Yayyy...Other than that I'll be working on another group project this weekend....and with that thought....

I want these!




The first pair shoes that caught my attention tonight were the Vanhove's over at ALDOSHOES.COM. These shoes come in 4 different colors, and they are priced at $80.00. I picked these two colors because I actually want both pair lol but if I had to choose...ummm...all black please! lol These other pair at the bottom are called the RACETTE and they come in this Taupe color, gray and black. I would buy the Taupe color since I don't own any shoes this color. These are priced at $100.00...SO now you see why I MUST stay out of the mall and evidently off that website!!! If you want to see more go check out ALDO's website. So what do you all think of these?



Can't fight the feeling!



Tonight when I was on youtube watching Jason Derulo's new video for my favorite song right now "In my Head" (make sure you go watch it), the camera man just had to zoom in on the leading lady's shoes! I was like damn those are HOT! Now just seeing her shoes made me want to go shoe shopping! Why am I up at 1:26 a.m. looking at shoes that I want to purchase that I don't need? I need to be buying more work out clothes instead of trying to get shoes! I can fight it lol I just have to stay away from the mall! With that being said I'm going to post 2 pair of shoes that caught my eye tonight!

What's Your Name?




Why is it so hard for me to approach a complete stranger that I think is very attractive?! I'm still trying to figure this out at the age of 23. What do I say to him? How will he respond? Will he think I'm attractive? All these questions run through by mind when I'm "thinking" about approaching a guy! And then in the background my stomach is doing back flips which is causing more terror...lol Then I start to think if a guy wants to talk to me he'll approach me himself...WRONG! I've asked a guy for his number ONE time in my life BUT he wasn't a complete stranger, we were class mates...that's another post right there (but I did get the number) lol. So I'm going to start this new adventure! Approaching Guys! What do you guys think?

Happy Martin Luther King Day



Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality and eats away its vital unity. Hate destroys a man's sense of values
and his objectivity. It causes him to describe the beautiful as ugly and the ugly as beautiful, and to confuse the true with the false
and the false with the true.

Martin Luther King, Jr., Strength To Love, 1963.

Spring Semester has began!



The Spring Semester for me actually started January 7th and I'm excited as always (now I say that lol). This semester I am taking 3 classes on campus and 1 online. On campus I have Strategic Planning, Selected Topics-Management, and Marketing Management, and my online class is Business Writing. I'll tell you this...I soooo can not procrastinate this semester! A majority of these classes consist of group projects and I have to stay on my P's and Q's :) With that being said, for those of you in school I hope you do your best and make the best of your education!

Talk about an overload...



Okay it's 2:10 a.m and I am wide awake. School starts Thursday so I got to get my sleeping routine together especially since I have a morning class now lol. Being that I'm awake right now, I like to research things from time to time and tonight my research has been about natural hair. It hasn't been a year yet since I got the BC (big chop), but it has been a year since I had my last relaxer...May 26, 2010 will be a year natural I guess? idk...but who cares...lol The point of this post is that there is a big information overload going on when it comes to natural hair! Like you have tons of message boards, bloggers, youtubers, and search engines with a million and one different opinions! Since I want to take care of my hair the right way and use the right products I tend to look at what other people have to say. Like I have questions like how often should I co-wash, what ingredients suck, what are the best oils, where should I buy products, what type of foods should I eat, how do I moisturize my hair, should I use a denman brush, what is my regimen????? You see that! Majority of these questions have been answered but I'm just like ahhhhhh!! My biggest concern is that I'll mess up and my hair will suffer! I'm already recovering from those products that had horrible ingredients! I'm over thinking to much especially with it being 2 am! lol I guess the best advice I could give to everyone, including myself is to umm...take it easy and relax! Yes it is helpful to look at what others recommend but at the end of the day make your own conclusions based off your experiences. Remember to look at ingredients in products before you purchase them! Google definitely is your friend! Most of all you should listen to your hair when she/he talks to you (that's the best part). We all have different needs so pay attention to what your hair and body needs. I feel a little better now that I got that off my chest! The best part is that I'm learning! Okay I'm OUT!

Date Night



So I love LOVE and anything romantic...I would love to go on a date or something right about now...lol I couldn't tell you the last time I went on a date! I'd just like to go out with a fun guy that I can enjoy myself with. It's always fun getting to know someone and laugh and smile and all that sappy stuff! Sigh* If I ever go on a date I sure will tell you all about it!

My first puff



Hey everyone! This is my official first post of 2010 haha! Well I'm always on youtube looking at different young ladies style their hair so I can try out new styles and be versatile with my hair. There is a youtuber that goes by the name of MahoganyCurls that did a video on how to do a puff. She has a TWA as well, but her hair is longer than mine but it encouraged me to go ahead and try that out on my hair. It turned out pretty awesome I must say lol. So here it is...what do you guys think?
