Flashback Friday - No No No

Destiny Child's- No No No
One of those songs, no matter how old it is.
I can still play it and feel like it was released last week.

Damn You Dell

My wish list is never ending, and now I can add a new laptop to the top of the list. I'm so fed up with this piece of shit Dell laptop. It keeps freezing, I get the blue screen of death from time to time and none of my programs will open (i.e psp, picture previews, tweetdeck won't update.) nothing irritates me more than a slow or fucked up computer/laptop. I want to change the look on here, nothing drastic but for some reason psp won't open =[.

Today I went to get the nails did, and I wanted to try something different so I got them way shorter than normal and less eye blinding colors being that I work around a lot of older women. But I've come to the conclusion that short nails aren't me at all.

*In the last post, I wrote about having access to a camera well now that the memory card is taken care of, he still doesn't have a USB cord and none of the ones I have fit. So there goes my hopes of posting better quality pictures.

Quick question; Your hear something about a dude you talk to, for example that he's a ho, or that he talks to a lot of females. Do you confront him about it, or leave it alone but keep your distance?

Glad It's Over

What a week/weekend!
Everyone has went their separate ways, and things are slowly returning to normal now.
My uncle is finally laid to rest and while I had a good time with my family I just wish death wasn't the cause of us all being together again.

My last update was about me finally getting my license, well now I can add getting my first ticket to the list. ALREADY? Yep, crazy but oh well. I plan to fight it because he clearly could of gave me a warning especially being that I have no record, and that I'd just gotten my license like 2 days ago.
& then someone did the EXACT same thing, I got pulled for and no one pulled them over. Of course the attitude in me questioned him about it and his excuse was that he was citing me so he couldn't pull them over when clearly there were two other police cars behind him. It's all bullshit and a big waste of time if you ask me, but well see how it ends when I go to court.

Work is work, I opened a savings account today because its so easy for me to spend money when Its sitting in my checking. & to be honest, I need to save as much money as I can, so hopefully that will help.

My Step dad finally got a memory card for his camera, so expect to see more WDYWT & Random pics. Still going to get my own, I'm going to settle for the Nikon S220.

I just finished watching FD4, and I'll give it a 3/5. I'm glad that I didn't pay money to see it in theaters, and that it's supposedly the last one. The acting and quality was overall poor, the 2nd one was the best IMO.

* Excuse the bad hair in the pic, I have a hair appointment Saturday, I'm bringing the bangs back.

Legally Driven

I got my license today, finally!

I know I'm laaate, but whatever.
One thing to scratch off my to-do list.

Rest In Peace

"God's finger touched him, and he slept."

If it's not one thing it's another, I swear that saying will probably follow me forever. Work is cool, they've been cutting hours but nothing to worry about. I don't blame them, because everyday that I worked last week was sloooow. It'll pick back up around Oct. though & more hours will come.

My uncle passed yesterday. This guy that I talk to called me yesterday at like 9am saying that they found him dead in his apt. It was so random, that I didn't believe him at first. I mean my uncle had a bunch of health issues, like being a diabetic and sleep apnea but his name and death in the same sentence just don't mix in my mind. My uncle and my great grandmother basically raised me, he was like the only and major father figure I had during my childhood. When I came back home in May, I made it a point to visit him faithfully and he made sure to put money away for me to have when I went back to ATL. He always told me that if I ever needed anything while I was down there to give him a call. He gave, even though he didn't have. He cared about others even though they may have thought negative about him. He had a sense of humor, a big heart. It's so crazy, and I don't think I'll ever be able to completely believe and accept the fact that he's gone. I feel like this entire situation could of been avoided. The night before he said he couldn't breath, and he sent his friend to get him medicine. His friend asked him if he wanted to call 911 and he said no. Then I asked how long he had been dead, and they said not long, because when they found him he was still ALIVE, but it was too late they couldn't save him, BULLSHIT!!! I can't sleep at night, every time I close my eyes I see him laying there, helpless and no longer.

Fine Timing

Even though it's technically 9/12, I thought I'd briefly take a minute to acknowledge the tragedy of 9/11. I'm sure everyone will always remember what they were doing and where they were when it all happened. It's crazy that's it's been 8yrs, I was in the 6th grade, at school in health class. I think an announcement was made, and then they turned on the tv and there it was. I won't dwell on it too much, but my prayers go out to all the lives and families forever changed.

Lately I've been thinking about my future and life in general, It's nothing new but lately it's been consuming my mind. Yesterday I finally got in touch with my financial aid adviser and was already pissed because I've been trying to reach him for about two weeks now, maybe longer. Then to make things worst, I find out that I could have got a scholarship to take care of the rest of my balance.
If I hopped on the next thing smoking I probably would still be able to attend, however I've already dropped my classes and have a job to attend to. So I just deferred everything until January for the spring semester.

What else, this lady came to my register today and had the coolest fucking accent ever. She was from Australia, she thought everything was mad cheap and that snuggies were amazingly ridiculous. It just added more confirmation as to why I love and want to travel. There's so much more to experience in life than what we settle for.

& lastly saving $$$ is a challenge, I just want to shop my life away but responsibilities and priorities come first right?

"..Reebok baby.."

I have to be at work at 9:45 in the morning, I should be sleep right now but I'm not.
You know how you visit one blog, and then decide to visit another and another and so on.
Well that's sort of me right now, its only so often that I have time or think to check up on my favorite blogs, whether it be fashion, personal, or entertainment related.
Anyway If you know me you know how big of a Hellz lover I am.
Came across another collab, they have in the works.
While I love me some Hellz Bellz, I haven't worn Reebok since erm maybe 6th grade.
The design and concept is hot, but I'll pass.
I'm patiently waiting for the two-finger ring collab with Miss Wax.
Would you wear these?

Credit Check Please!

I feel like I've been working non-stop. I haven't had a day off since last Monday, it's not too bad. On most days I only do 6-8hr shift.
I wish I could say my holiday weekend was fun, but it wasn't. I've did nothing at all, but chill with friends. I have a crazy taste for bbq right now, and I doubt I'll get that either.

Anyway, today I did something that I hope I won't regret any time soon.
I've been wanting to buy jewelry for the longeeest, and my job was having a good sale so I went ahead and applied for a credit card =\. I didn't think I would get approved, but I did!
I know I'm supposed to be saving up for school, which might I add is very hard when you have an addiction. However I really need to establish & build up my credit.
I got a bracelet and ordered a nameplate necklace, both at good prices.
I'm going to pay the majority of it off this week though, I'm paranoid about the whole situation so I'm just going to dead it now. The result of this is that I'll have to wait on my camera, another week or so.

It's so much shit I have to do and want to do, my friend wants me to come to Atl for homecoming. I would looove to do so and get away. But right now it's just not in my plans or budget.

I'm sure eventually everything will fall into place.
Happy Labor Day!

Daily Quote-Vulnerability

"When we were children, we used to think that when we were grown-up we would no longer be vulnerable. But to grow up is to accept vulnerability. To be alive is to be vulnerable."

Big Deal

When did dude's rocking skinnies, become such a fucking big deal?
I didn't think it was this serious, I mean there are many other problems with today's generation and people shitting themselves over the way a person prefer to dress.
No I'm not down with males wearing mad tight jeans, however who the fuck wears baggy jeans in '09. I prefer slightly fitted, but if they like it I love it.
Like female said at the end, not too tight and as long as the sneakers are right.
Homie with the silver moon boots, not a good look however.
