Wordless Wednesday: A Valentine Gift

No, it wasn't from my boyfriend. It was from my 3 year old brother :)

Happy....uh, hallmark dedication day?

I don't really celebrate Valentine's Day. I find it pointless to dedicate a holiday where you show people how much you love them. You should be able to show someone you love them everyday. Well this year I did something different. I bought some of Tyrel's favorite candy made a little sign, and left it on the kitchen table for him to see it when he got off work

Yeah it's a little cheezy, but I figured what the heck? Haha. Tyrel thought it was cute and of course he said yes tee hee.

Anyway I went to work like nothing special. Typical crazy Tuesday. The only thing different about it was having a special Valentine party. I was given so many sweets and treats I wont want to eat junk food for a week... Ok, maybe not but you get the idea.

I think the best present I received today was the one from my little 3 year old brother

My mom said they went to the store and he specifically picked it out himself. What a sweet little boy he is! (well most of the time haha) Anyway, it was definitely a pick me up after a not so good day at work. I finished the night with some delicious comfort food and candy hearts from my mom for dessert!

I hope this post doesn't come across as negative. I may sound like the Valentine Grinch, but really I love all the holidays. I dress up, decorate and paint my nails for the occasion. I have nothing against you for celebrating it, I just don't see the point of it I guess.

Happy Valentine's Day!

My offical new beginning

So after days of searching, and hours of frustrating html editing I finally found a blog layout that I like. Hooray!

Anyway, that's not really the whole reason why I'm writing this. I've started running again. In my 3rd failed attempt at loosing weight I've decided (for real this time) that enough is enough. I'm determined to lose weight. I want to look good in my clothes again. I want to wear a cute outfit and feel self-conscious about my tummy sticking out.

I am ready for a new ME!

I need more followers!

Does anybody have any suggestions or ideas of how I can promote my blog and get more followers??

I only have 5. Makes me kind of sad... I'm proud of my blog and my writings and I would love more people and readers

Super bowl: half time show

I've never been a super bowl fan. The main reason why I would watch the super bowl are for 2 reasons: the commercials and halftime show. Seems like a lame reason to watch so I usually just end up looking up videos of them the day after the super bowl

Now I don't know if any of you saw the half time show. If you didn't well here's the video:


I was a little surprised to see Madonna up on stage, but I was quite impressed with her dance moves. She is in her 50s and has more dance moves and coordination then I have! Sure she may have lip synced, and her new song is... well not so great. But everything was fine. I've heard mixed feelings about the half time show and was wondering what other people may have thought about it.

I feel that for all the people that are hating, I would like see you get on stage and do a 12 minute dance performance

One amazing story

This is a story that has been circling facebook for quite sometime and I wanted to take the time to share it as well. According to the story this is a true story. Whether it be true or not, it's still a pretty amazing story. (once you get past all the spelling errors) Enjoy!




This happened on TAM airlines.

A 50-something year old white woman arrived at her seat and saw that the passenger next to her was a black man. Visibly furious, she called the air hostess.

"What's the problem, ma?" the hostess asked her
"Can't you see?" the lady said - "I was given a seat next to a black man. I can't seat here next to him. You have to change my seat"

- "Please, calm down, ma" - said the hostess
"Unfortunately, all the seats are occupied, but I'm still going to check if we have any."

The hostess left and returned some minutes later.

"Madam, as I told you, there isn't any empty seat in this class- economy class.
But I spoke to the captain and he confirmed that there isn't any empty seats in the economy class. We only have seats in the first class."

And before the woman said anything, the hostess continued

"Look, it is unusual for our company to allow a passenger from the economy class change to the first class.
However, given the circumstances, the commandant thinks that it would be a scandal to make a passenger travel sat next to an unpleasant person."

And turning to the black man, the hostess said:

"Which means, Sir, if you would be so nice to pack your handbag, we have reserved you a seat in the first class..."

And all the passengers nearby, who were shocked to see the scene started applauding, some standing on their feet."

Wordless Wednesday: camera tricks

I like to take pictures. No importantly I like taking pictures of random things and mess with the settings to make it look cool. Anyway here's what happens when I get bored haha
