Weekend Me....

Isn't it just great seeing folks you haven't seen in yrs, and being on top of your game when you do? That was my crew this weekend running into some fellow alums. What did they think in 4 yrs we'd all be obese and bald headed??? lolol

How about I almost ran into crazy loco ex this weekend? Whew! Glad I dodged that bullet unknowingly... he was a no show to an event I attended. Good thing is I know his people ran back and reported hahahaha I couldn't have planned it better if I'd tried!

Please people if you're going to marry someone, please love them....smh... I experienced FOOLISHNESS wedding style Saturday. If you have to be high to walk down the aisle, chances are something aint right ;-)

Yea I know it's short, but I have a final Thursday and tons of work to do before then! lol I'll try to blog more later....

Grrrrrrrrr!!!!

So, one thing I don't like....people who act like they can do something for you and they don't come through. Just say from the beginning, I'm not capable of doing X,Y,Z.

So lately I've been experiencing this with promoters. Dude, don't say you have us, then try to play us when we get there? I've been noticing that people will say they can do something they don't have the power to do, or people who do have the power will try to get brand new when it's time to come through. I'm soooo not a fan. If you're someone that I would go out of my way for, I expect you to do a small thing for me. I know it can happen, because others do it with no problems. This especially gets on my nerves when a favor is not asked for, but it is offered. I stopped asking folks a looooonnnnggggg time ago to do certain things for me, because I know if they don't come through I'll be pissed, so I let people volunteer. There are a couple folks that never cease to come through and my friends and I appreciate it, and will bend over backwards to support them in anyway. These other folks? humph! It'll be a minute before I frequent anything else they're doing again.....can you tell a promoter I've known for yrs (before he started promoting, shoot before he started driving) got brand new last night? Guess it's time for a 2 month hiatus from his stuff too...

It's been a minute...

So let's see what has happened since my last "my life" update.

Very recently for the first time in over a year, I am in a "I want to be in a relationship" mood. I haven't felt like this since 2006, and I was in one then lol It's weird, the more I think of how much I'm going to have slow down my social life when grad school starts in a month, and I really just want to spend the little free time I will have, with someone I romantically love. Weird isn't it, that last sentence coming out of my mouth (fingers) lol Don't worry I'm still a believer in you're single until you're married, but I do want a special someone, and not the "pretty nice" men I've been spending time with, although I'm not exactly ready to let that all go either lolololol Now for HTO of course, anyone else... ummm yea I haven't met them yet! lol

Speaking of guys so tell me why one of the more "seasoned" guys I date bought a boat. But being who he is, he didn't just buy any old boat he bought a 6 person can sleep below, 15 people on deck at a time boat. I'm like dude why not just get a yacht? lol Clearly you're trying to ball....I really don't get the whole boat thing. If I have enough money to spend on a boat like that, why not just join net jets? Then you can experience the water in other countries. Why don't people think of that???

So my ex...smh.....well not the crazy always on his period one, but the athlete one....things had been going so well for him. He was getting back in his Word, leading a healthy lifestyle, had a new team that I'd LOVE to visit their team city VERY interested in him, and then what happens he tears his quad...smh. I felt so bad for him, but yet I still hoped he'd take it as an opportunity to grow spiritually. I talked to him a week later, and he'd turned to alcohol. Broke my heart, and pissed me off at the same time. After a VERY stern talking to by me he got his act together. It's good sometimes to know a person almost inside and out, so that when it's time to get real with them, you know exactly what to say and what buttons to push to get the point thoroughly across.

I got to see the majority of my closest ladies in June. I went out to NYC for our boy's surprise birthday party, and we got to live it up! We partied, shopped, and slept! lol Good times! :-)
I also got to hang with the BFF when she came to town for the 4th of July, we ate, partied, and shopped... hmmm, seems to be a theme for us lol

My summer class will be over at the end of July, so August will be my last time having fun non stop until break in November, a trip here I come! So what do you all think, Cabo/Nuevo Vallarta/Belize for the November/December getaway? Pick one! :-)

'Til next, Love Ya!

????

Would you ever be the other woman????

What would the circumstances have to be for you to see yourself being one?

Hiatus from plan....

Pause has been pressed on my end for the "master plan". I have to wait until the other end of the plans works before my part comes into play ;-) So until then, I won't have any new developments.

This Memorial Day I travelled to the tri-state area, namely Jersey and NYC. My BFF lives in Jersey (for the next month) and of course we had to go party in NYC ;-) I had an awesome time. We went out every night, and on Sunday we hooked up with one of our really close friends from undergrad, and we shopped and ate. Such a great time!! I also fell in love with a new Gucci leather bag. I won't be posting a picture until after I purchase it ;-) I have to be the first with it! You know how I do lol

Last night I went to go see "The Ballad of Emmett Till" at the Goodman Theatre. It was really moving. I want to take my mom to go see it when she's back stateside.

Today at 5:30am I started 2 a days. I was so alert this morning at work after completing my cardio workout! Another friend just told me about this thing called Lipo6, that will enhance and speed up the weight loss process so now that I've read up on it, I will be purchasing that on my lunch break! ;-) So hopefully I'll be writing about losing 10 lbs quickly soon....

Yessir, we've got a plan!!!

So operation "he's the one" - HTO, is in full effect! I had a convo with a close friend of mine who is also a close friend of his, and we came up with a pretty good plan. Now let's all just hope it works out ;-) And also that he likes me too, lol that's pretty major.

I'm trying to decide how close I'm going to be with an ex of mine. We're really good friends, and from time to time when we see each other we "Act like a couple" if you know what I mean. But, does being close to him jeopardize me for a new relationship with someone else?

Has anyone had a chance to check out Diane VF's summer dresses? They are so fiercely feminine! I love them!

Hmmmmm, could he be the One?

So every time I meet a guy who's great on paper, I never let myself get too caught up in thinking he's going to be my man, etc. Because too often nowadays folks lie, or they're just not the great even mediocre in real life, and should've just stuck to the myth I'd created of them based on what they were on paper.

So there's this guy...of course we all knew this was coming...he's absolutely positively FABULOUS on paper, but get this brace yourselves.... he's absolutely charming, and very attractive in real life. Too good to be true right? Well, I sure hope not. Yea I said hope, because right now the him in my head, yes the pedestal I have him on, is just that in my head. I know he's a great guy as we have interacted numerous times in "real" life. But, seeing as how he has no clue, well I think no clue, that I even like him let alone think he could be my perfect soul mate, I have no idea how he'd be in a romantic setting. All I know is he has every quality I want in my mate...

Christian who is spiritual and knows his Bible

A cool cute charismatic nerd

Highly intelligent (I will not have dumb kids, and my wonderful chromosones just account for 50% of what they get)

Someone that can hang with the bourgies, but can also hang in the hood, and fit well in both settings...

So because he's so awesome I'm trying to play everything by the book! I need him to approach me first...I need a man who can lead! I can be a bit much so I need to know he's a take charge sort of guy. I just really think he's perfect for me........Now to only have him see I'm perfect for him.......... yea.......that part is pretty major.....

We all just want a "Last First Kiss" by Tamia, right?
