Getting Rid of Matthew by Jane Fallon- I picked this book up in the 1/2 off bin at Barnes & Noble and it turned out to be a really good read.

My Darling, My Hamburger by Paul Zindel- This is by far one of my favorite books. We had to read it in Honors English my freshman year of high school & I've been in love with it ever since.

Invisible Man by Ralph Elison- Another Honors English assignment.. I didnt really get it until I read it again at my own leisure. GREAT!!!

The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold- The story is sad but it's a great read... & the movie is great also..

Chall-UNGE!! (9 Loves Post)

Technically, I'm late but I've been awake since 8p 1/25 so in my mind it's Wednesday lol... Anywho, on to the post.

9 Loves

Music... Genre is irrelevant. If it sounds good & can evoke an emotion from me, it's a winner in my book

Potatoes. It's more of a love/hate thing... I love how they taste but hate what they do do my shape.

Reading. Kinda the same thing as with music.

Nick At Nite

Banana Laffy Taffy

Writing random words on my notepad when I'm at work.

Road trips!!... well travelling period.

Texting & Talking to that special someone.

Spa Days!!!

More Frequent posts!!! YAY!!

So I FINALLY got another laptop!! WOOHOO!!!!... And as promised, I will start to post more frequently... I decided that I would try to get into the swing of things by doing this little challenge I saw when I was reading This Blog (her name is Adri) ..... plus I figured it would be a good way to get more people reading my blog.... No?? Whatever!!! Here goes lol

10 Secrets Things That Won't Be Secrets Anymore lol

1. I'm really not a sociable person at all.... I'd much rather be at home by myself flipping channels or reading.

2. I think I have a great personality, but I think if I lost weight people would like me more.

3. Speaking of weight, I have a HUGE crush on this guy, but I won't tell him for fear that he won't like me bc I'm not skinny.

4. I think I'm lowkey addicted to sodas... whenever I try to stop drinking them, I get the worst headaches & attitude..

5. I've never watched an episode of Glee... & I'm not ashamed!!

6. I practice my dance moves in the mirror, but when I get out, I never execute them bc I don't wanna look foolish lol

7. I most definitely need to work on a closer walk with God... I'm ashamed at how I've let myself backslide.

8. I sometimes question who I really am bc I have mastered the ability to adapt to my surroundings

9. I will be 25 in 3 days & I can count on one hand how many decisions I've made based solely on my feelings.. smh

10. I can be very judgemental of others at times... I'm working on it though.

Welp! That about does it for this post... Hope yall enjoy.. if not, don't tell me! lol jk...

2012 so far...

It's been almost a month since my last post so I figured it was time for a short update...

First off, I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year!!! I had a blast on both... Ok on to the updates..

• I took the 1st entrance exam to the nursing program and I made a 96%!!! SWAG ME OUT!!!! Now I have to take the remaining 2 sections... hopefully I can make comparable scores on those as well...

• My 25th birthday is 2 weeks away & I don't really have any spectacular plans but I'm UBER excited about it.... 

• I got a new phone lol... & I'm in the process of narrowing down my decision on a laptop so more frequent posts are right around the corner... I still haven't fully committed to a "days of the week" theme.... but I'll have that figured out by the time I get the laptop... 

• I hate the cliche "new year new me" mindsets that people tend to embrace around this time, but for some reason, I feel a new sense of self coming into fruition.. God is amazing & I can feel Him moving in my life... Positivity is a MUST in 2012!!

Well that's pretty much the 1st 2 weeks of 2012 in a nutshell....

Hasta La Pasta!!!
