Reflection

Everyday, I continuously reflect on the events that had transpired that day (and sometimes earlier on).  I generally like to analyze what happened to see if I went wrong somewhere or if I did something right.  Well this weekend was full of self reflection and analyzing friendships, and I came to a conclusion:  You will have people smile in your face and stab you in the back.  I know that's an age old saying but it became more apparent to me with someone who I had considered a close (actually, a best) friend.  When you ever have an inclination that something is wrong with a friendship or how you are being treated, chances are, there is something wrong. 

The old me would automatically eliminate this person out of my life but because I have gotten older and smarter I realize it's best to just be cordial and move on with my day and just know that I can't trust that person--ever.  But hey, sh*t happens.  I'm actually not mad or sad even though I thought I would be.  I think I realized that everything our friendship was based upon was on lies.  Therefore, I can't feel sad about me separating myself. 

Sorry to get all emo-esque and what not but I felt the need to express this because it's a common part of life that everyone goes through at least once in their lives.

So ya...

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE! I love holidays where I can get dressed up..hell, I just love themed parties/days/whatever!  I also love this day because you can dress in clothes a little shorter than normal (mmkay that sounded whorish, but i'm not a whore, i swear lol) and the candy! Well, i'm still trying to figure out what I shall wear tonight when out on the town so imma bounce....

Jennifer Hudson & Family

My heart goes out to the Hudsons during this tragic time.  For those of you who are unaware, Jennifer Hudson's mother, brother, and nephew have been murdered.  All of this happened this weekend.

Guitar Hero World Tour

This is one of my favorite commercials out right now simply because the oh-so FINE & HOTT Kobe Bryant, A-Rod, and Michael Phelps (oh yeah, and Tony Hawk) are wearing b-ball shorts/boxers/speedos.  And because I like Guitar Hero...and now that I can play the drums on there i'm super stoked! lol

Happy Birthday Drake!

His birthday is actually October 24th, but I have been out of town and away from a computer this past weekend....but it's never too late to celebrate!

The loveable and amazing Heart Break Drake has turned 22!  Congratulations on your success thus far and I hope for many more amazing things happen to you! And because I cannot sing for ish, here is a Happy Birthday sung by the one and only Drake ! (just replace the Karla parts with Drake and it'll all be good. lol)

High School Yearbook Photo. . .?

Lately all of my friends have been taking this "old yearbook pictures" on yearbookyourself.com but I had forgotten the site.  So the Google loving person that I am looked up online 'high school yearbook picture'....and this is what came up lol. 

The site that I got it from says that's similar to what happened to them but this was under the category of "Best High School Yearbook Photo Ever".  Now we don't know if this is really a yearbook photo..but damn.  This is ridiculous.  Here is everything wrong with this photo: 1) They are topless 2) Homeboy has the bleached, gelled, and brushed forward hairstyle that Eminem rocked over a decade ago 3) THIS CHICK IS PREGGERS!

WTF where they thinking?!?! And to be smiling like this is normal!! *SMH*

How To Deal With A Roommate

This post is specifically for those who did not (or did) choose their roommate for college.  Let's say things started off alright and then all of a sudden you realize you have roomed with a crazy person or someone who plainly gets on your nerves or pisses you off.  Here are some steps that I hope you find helpful in this situation:

1. Approach the roommate in the least threatening manner to discuss the issues you have.  Remember, don't be condescending.  That's offensive and most people don't like to be talked down to.

2. After addressing the issues with your roommate and no changes have occurred, inform your RA (residential advisor).  They can give you advice and possibly mediate an argument to help you find a happy medium.

3. If things still haven't gotten better and you hate being in the room the same time as your roommate or whenever you see them you want to beat the crap out of them, it's best to alert the RD (resident director) or housing.

4. The best thing you can do at this point is to move out (or maybe if your roommate doesn't like you either and wants to go somewhere else, they can move to another dorm).

Hopefully this is helpful.  Just remember to be calm, cool, and collected and don't be an asshole towards them.  That can only make the situation worse.  Plus, you don't know if your roommate is psychotic and will do things to you....i'm just putting that out there because ish like that happens. lol

Grown Adults Are Not Allowed To. . .

Have sidekicks.

These little gadgets are for teens, not for grown ass people.  If you want all of the cool features of this phone (such as internet, AIM, various email accounts) you NEED to upgrade to a Blackberry.  I'm saying that this is for the adults, not for kids.

I'm not going to lie, I loved the sidekicks when they first came out but that was like, what, 5 years ago? 

To put it simply: If you are around 21+ (I would start at 18, but some people are still in high school at that age) do not carry with you a sidekick. UPGRADE YOUR SELF TO A BLACKBERRY.

Ta Ta for now.
