what i know to be true

what i know to be true...
is that the most important relationship you can have 
is with yourself..
and i would like to think that i have a very good one with myself
i know that in the end, no matter what  i have, or who i have in my life or not in my life i have to be with myself
so its important to take of myself

if for instance you cant be by yourself in totally silence, still silence, just sit in silence and just be...then i would have to say that your relationship is totally off balance.

the fact that i love myself allows me to take care of those around me, and give to them what i choose to give to them.
its never more than i can handle, or any less.

the real point of this, is me buying flowers for myself the other day
and i thought i would share them with you.
kinda like im bought them for you too.

so enjoy...and treat yourself every once in awhile.

Photobucket

about two years ago i went to delia's in town center mall looking for leggings that were open toe...meaning wrap around your foot
and one of the girls that worked in the store was really trying to clown me
"like why are you looking for those. i saw in lucky that those were a NOT"

NOW look at this here...what do you know open toe leggings are so in right now.

at the water cooler

what did you discuss at work today...
because over in my hood we talked about the reunion show of the Real Housewives of Atlanta

WHILE this was going on......
78 people were killed in Mumbai, India and 200 wounded.
The details for me are questionable as they always are,
but the claims are that the gunmen for looking for foreigners
mainly britons and americans

since im not a reporter you can read the article for yourself <<<right here>>>

Can you believe

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving…it feels nowhere near any holiday.

I went to the mall the other day and the Salvation Army guy was out ringing his bell chanting “Merry Christmas”.
I couldn’t help but laugh..i mean one because he was only saying Happy Thanksgiving only a few times compared to all the “Merry Christmas”.
And two because the thought of Christmas felt like a joke to me…I know im not the only one that feels this way
Seems like they started the preparation for Christmas a whole lot earlier this year…because they know how much Christmas is NOT on the consumers mind this year.
I think it will be an awful Christmas as it relates to sales.
Please believe the after Christmas sales are gonna be crazy this year, the retailers are gonna have to get rid of all that stuff no one purchased before Christmas.

Ill be saving my few duckies until then.

lets be honest

my life has becoming B to the b-o-r-i-n-g. and it has been reflective in this here blog
but what is a girl to do when she is exhausting her youth and trading it in for adulthood
in which you somehow chase those "dreams" you had all your life
because now its time to live up to all that you said you could be

and well it rather draining!


not to mention things have being going on personally...that im not allowed to even blog about
a. because who knows who reads this
and 
b. who knows who doesnt read this

just for the fun of it i wrote a poem (which even that has been absent in my life) to sum up just some of the things that have me going to bed at 6 pm! smh


to be titled at a later date

ONce...
i fell in love
and...
you couldnt tell 
if the stars or the moon shined brighter
whenever i danced
i felt his feet move
they stepped and paced across my heart
like that sailor
who left for the sea
but in this story he came home
i....
felt at most all the possibilities of the situation
even had myself thinking they were all true
yeah,
i fell in love
once...before
i told time my the ring of his dial
a minute couldnt be found where he wasnt mine
we never thought about two as one
we were just one
we didnt let our night time thoughts 
exceed what the sun had in store for us
so...
sunny trips to the coast were planned
to be a destination of love
yeah, once i was i love

i thought when he left
i could say goodbye
because...
it was real
and they say "whats yours will always be"
instead
i wanna tell you the end of the story
but i cant..
the truth of the matter
and "let's be honest"
the story never ended
because i never felt the out in this love

and
its as strong today
as it was when my heart first akin to skip your beats
i have reached every possibility without you
and "lets be honest"
i now know there are none possible without you.



so at this point its bedtime.

Im suppose to be a blogger

I have all these pictures that I have taken in my phone to blog about
But somehow I never got to that.
So in honor of all those suppose to be post..i created one for all.

no one told me



that envouge didnt sing this song!
well of course i found out awhile ago...
but it so funny to me when i have gone on for ages thinking an artist has created a certain song
and the whole while they were singing something that already existed.

btw does anybody know the girl singing leads name, im sure i can google it, but she has been in so much i feel that her name should be stored in my mental rolodex. she was even the gay lady in "Women of Brewster Place"


i know no one ever watches these videos post...but just in case you do i like this part of the movie "Sparkle" even more



" i tell you now i ain't to proud to beg"

Photobucket


Greens??

okay so im gonna set the scene...
im sitting in highway 75 north afternoon traffic...there are cars everywhere...and i catch a glimpse of this

im not naive i know food has the be transported...but if this is the norm remind me NOT to eat greens anymore.
i mean anything could fall into this truck
and

smh

or maybe its just me, you be the judge?

Sunday, November 16, 2008

yeah so

i want this..........

Photobucket


im probably the most non-materialistic person, so i know nothing about luxury vehicles
....but i do know that in about two years im gonna have to get a new car (crossing my fingers that my current car holds out that long)
...and so i decided that i need a convertible because i hate being confined,
and what better brand than the one that bears my initials BMW
we were a match made in heaven.

i have a lot of work to do, to say the least.



sick as a dog

do you ever wonder where those silly phrase come from like 'sick as a dog'....
but whats even funnier is that i still use them
i know there are like a million more, but for some reason i cant think of them right now.


anyhow, ya girl was hella sick yesterday, i mean hella sick.
i even spit up my guts i believe.
it was just horrible

i dont think i have felt that bad without alcohol as the culprit in a long time.

..........today is much pretty, just a few trails of nausea...:)if you were wondering:).

back in the day

Remember when…

you use to play barbies…
but barbie had no real problems
she never had to worry about paying bills
or not going out with the other girls to the mall to get all the fashion avenue clothes she wanted
because the country was in a recession
and
all barbie did was get ready for dates with ken
she only had to worry about ken trying to date theresa (which was suppose to be the reject barbie, or ethnic barbie)
or worrying about whether her pink barbie convertible had all four wheels

i said all that to say, i remember the days when things were simple.
and i kinda miss them.

i never, not ever

go without reading susan miller at the beginning of each month, things have gotten so crazy that i havent looked until this very moment.


already susan has me super excited...and thats not often because she will give it to you straight and tell you the ish is about to hit the fan....but this is what she had to say

"Actually, this whole week, November 10-15, should bring exceptional career and financial news across the board, so circle it in red as perfect for any big meetings where a negotiation is required. You'd be favored, so there's no harm taking full advantage!"

...and this is exciting because i have a potential meeting on tuesday...and an event to work this friday...so im hoping all goes well...and now i feel that it will.

you know you wanna read yours<<<i wont tell if you click here>>>

deep sleep

Have you ever had one of those sleeps where its so deep that you aren’t even conscious of the things happening around you?
Well most times I don’t sleep deeply at all….but last night I had one of those nights where I was just sleeping away unconscious of the things that were going on around me. (this sounds really weird because when most people sleep things aren’t going on, but trust things were going on while I was sleep)

…anyhow this made me realize that whenever im in a deep sleep I also have a dream that I can remember vividly when I awake.
I don’t think I put that together until this moment.
My dream last night consisted of someone I know continuing to feed me all these orders for earrings….and I was all flabbergasted but they just kept reading them off like that weren’t even phased.
Real awkward dream…since I was suppose to be up working on earrings but instead I chose to sleep…but I couldn’t escape work.

I had another dream, but I cant remember it. It was after I woke up from the deep sleep, and I called myself returning to sleep.

...sidebar: i always feel like dreams are things God wants you to experience that you couldn’t possibly if you were awake, or some lesson that you need to be taught that you couldn’t get if you weren’t sitting still i.e. sleeping.
so i have an indescribably love for them.

fab since day one

Photobucket


Photobucket

in the fame business

i quote a satisfied customer:

"i thank you for my fame"


according to one of 2:14's avid customers here fame has sky rocketed at her high school, all because of my earrings.
it is such a great feeling to have someone feel that way about something you created, but in the most non materialistic way possible, if thats even possible for this situation.

sooooooo with that being said
creating fabulous-ness one earring at a time.

check out my other famous friend <<<here>>>

just one word

so i went shopping around a bit in atlanta for some spots to put my jewelry yesterday...
at one of the stores the lady asked what one word would i use to describe my jewelry...
i hesitated a bit because i never thought about it, and i never like for people to ask me to sum things up in one word. but i get it thats the way the world works.

so
i say different....yeah real dumb answer, but i cleaned it up.
since i analyze everything before and after it happens i had to decide what would have been the best answer.
i decided....
Freedom + Love= not one word right?, yes i know.

but its as best i could  do within the box of one word answers.
i pick this answer because i think a lot of love goes into what i create and its the freedom to just be me, and not have to be just one thing.
it speaks for all the things that i love about life...
it embodies the beauty of aesthetics to me,
it just feels good.
thats my answer and im sticking to it.
so the next time someone wants just one word...im prepared with two.
