I skipped a week and this is 2 days but here is my list lol
Wale "Sabatoge" (I'm so stuck on his album right now)
Jessie J. "Domino" (this song just makes me happy)
Rihanna "You da One" (I hated this song when I first heard it but now I love it)
Floetry "Say Yes" ( I took it back...I just had to!)
Mary Mary "Survive" (great pumped gospel song)
Since this past summer, maybe even closer to the end of spring I had decided to just stop wrapping myself around the idea of a fairy tale romance happening for me. When I say fairytail, I mean the classic (but not so abundant anymore) style of guy meets girl, introduces himself, gets her number, askes her out, and it works out for the long haul. You know marriage,kids and all that good stuff. I never had a huge unrealistic way of looking at love (some of my friends may disagree lol) because I ovbiously knew that's not the way it always goes, but I did think it was possible. Before, I did have a greater notion that it was possible for that to happen for me. I'm getting older and so far I have had no luck. Thus the change of thinking on my part since last summer late spring. A lot of this change came from dissapointments in sitiations from guys who I really liked. Situations where I put myself out ther, told them that I liked them,and all I got back was " I like you just as a friend". It stung a bit,but a least I finally knew and I felt proud that I told them otherwise I would have been stuck having feelings for someone who does not feel the same. I cant feel any angst towards someone who has the balls to tell me the truth right? After the dissapointment went away I realized that you just can't help who you like and don't like and sometimes it just happens the way you hoped it wouldn't. Anywho, since I made that change of thinking (where its just whatever if it happens or not) I've been getting hit on but by bad boys and guys I just did not expect to ever get hit on by. So the good boys that I liked before turned out to be no fun in retrospesct and seemed essentially boring by some standards compared to the crazyiness these bad boys who are now hollerin at me brought but they are no good at all. I have yet to go out with any of them (when I say any, I mean just 3 guys total don't wanna make it seem like there are a whole bunch of them) but I have talked and chatted a bit with them, long enough to see they aren't right for me. I do not, by all means, have room to be picky but I also am not going to settle. The things these guys want I'm not offering so that is that. But I will say it is nice to be wanted. To have someone call you and just chat. Their intentions may be to get the goods, but honestly I found them to be a lot more easy to talk to because even if that is what they are going for, (I'm not giving that up) and I made that known to them in the beginning, at least they know what they want. Now I'm just waiting for the guy who will come at me with the pure true interest of getting to know me.
Not all but most Indie movies that I have watched always have ambigious endings. I just thought about this after watching "The Art of Getting By", which I don't even know if its classified as one but I loved it. There was some frustration surrounded by the main male character who is a senior in highschool but has absolutley no motivation for essentially living until he meets a young lady who changes all of that for him. The plot alone could easily apply to a late 90's highschool boy-find-girl-looses-girl-gets-girl-back kinda film but there was something ginuine about this guys misanthropic behavior that couldn't hide behind cheesy music or synchronized dancing. The story line was so relatable but not at the same time. If that makes any sense lol. All in all I enjoyed it and the ending left you with questions, but good questions. Questions that help you the viewer stop and think what could really be next for the characters. And like the principal of the school told this guy, after he had given up and finally came to do what he needed to do, "anything is possible", I was actually left with that feeling is the most not so cheesy, but motivating way.
So I just realized my idea of relaxing at home tonight is super girly. It consists of....
Sushi (well that's not girly at all) next.....

Many people are big fans or the smoothie kind of fruit juices but I am. I would think the biggest reason why people don't like them is because of how pricey they can be. This I do not like either but I'm a suker for them and when I have the extra funds or am just completly fiening for one I get it. The Naked brand is probably my favorite. Last week I got lucky because they had them on sale at two places for 2 for $5 bucks. Usually they are around $2.70 and I know what you're thinking, that isn't really a big leap in savings, but what you don't know is that these drinks hardly ever go on sale. With that said I bought like 6. Breaking the bank, yes, I broke it, but in doing so I discoverd the orange carrot one which is now my favorite!!!! I don't think of the drinks as smoothies. I think of them more as thick juice drinks. Either way they mighty tasty.
I haven't cooked in a while and I love to cook! I've just been hella busy with work and unfortunately I was subdued by the eating out way more than I should have been. But I've made some changes in my working life and one thing I wanted to get back to first was cooking. So after a trip to the Fresh Market with my sis and watching that Sarah lady's PBS cooking show on making one meal a week a vegetarian one (btw pbs cooking shows are awesome) I was inspired to make..da da da da... mini veggie pizza or it could be an open face sandwich of sorts made with toasted naan, a good spread of a tablespoon or more of store brought orginal hummus (Fresh market brand) topped with a simple sautee of onions, red peppers and spinach season with a bit of garlic powder and salt and pepper. I also added the spinach right at the end because I didn't number 1 want to cook out the nutrients too much and number 2 have it be super soggy so I cooked it till it just wilted a bit. I like fresh spinach. With it I made a side of cous cous (roasted garlic flavor from the box) which I had never had or made before and was super easy and surprisingly yummy! I tore up this lunch! I mean it turned out better than I thought and when I was done I kept thinking wow it didn't even have meat!
