Currently watching for the umpteenth time.  I'm obsessed.
Disney's Tangled.

I wouldn't want to have it any other way.



I find that my memory is the most betraying thing of it all.  I go through my cycles of fighting to forget things and when I least expect it everything comes flooding back.  One of my coworkers said something interesting today when telling me about his recent break up... "No one has a nice past".  This struck out the most to me because it's so true.  No one has a past they're completely proud of.  I think I've taken so many wrong turns in my life that at times I feel helpless and alone when trying to make the right turn.  But in reality, this is the person I am and I have to accept that.  All these mistakes that I've made have made me into the person I am today and I can't say I regret much.  I regret not being smarter about situations and not following the logical path of things instead of the emotional path.

It's funny because today I sat down and asked myself why I am the way I am.  I think it has to do with a lot but I found myself cursing the fact that I was a Cancer because I am the EPITOME of a Cancer.  Seriously!  Emotional basket case.  But you know what?  Every feeling that I have is so real and so raw that I'm okay with that.  When I love, I love.  When I hate, I hate.  There's never any second guessing when it comes to my emotions lol.

So you know what?  Here's to all my feelings.  All my memories, beloved and betraying.  All my heartbreaks and tears.  Laughs and shouts.  I'm a feeler of sorts (that sounds weird) but I would rather feel everything the way I do rather than feel nothing at all.

Glowstix. Day 3.


Who knew how much fun a couple of highlighters and black lights could be?  I went to a co worker's party tonight and had a ton of fun with my girls.  I complain a lot about not having too many quality friends but the girls from my job are the absolute bomb, I adore them.  It was great seeing everyone out of work clothes and drinking and dancing and having fun.  Though the party did end really early and abrupt (1:50 AM... whatttt?!) I can say I had genuine fun.  It's been a while.

As for my day... still no gym. :( I did do some hardcore dancing on Dance Central today but I want to get to the gym soon.  I went to Bloomingdale's with Maribel today and picked up the cutest pair of Betsey Johnson earrings in the shape of red lips!!  So cute!  I love funky jewelry.

Thrift Shop Blues.

I went thrifting today with my little sister and although I didn't find much for myself she scored this pretty sweet dress and belt for less than $15!  The dress is actually floor length but our grandma is going to cut and hem it for her.  I love it!  Definitely a cute and feminine look for the spring time paired with some cute flats I think this should be a spring uniform!




I didn't leave completely empty handed.  I did find these pretty sweet gold knot earrings.

H.A.M.

I am a natural born ham and I've come to figure that the higher my blood alcohol content, the hammier I get.  So now I'll grace you with some pictures of me at my hammiest.




All of those pictures were taken December of last year at my cousin's pre-Xmas party in Brooklyn.  Look at how in love Luis and I look!  Haha that's one of my best friends ever.  Love him to death.  I am such a ham!

Day 2

Was anyone else's March as uneventful as mine was?  I'm glad that March is over, that just leaves us one month closer to the summer!  Today was a pretty good day.  I spent 30 minutes rolling in bed this morning unable to get out of it.  After only sleeping 4 hours your body does a crazy thing and literally traps you in the warm chains of your blanket.  Weird.  Enough said, I was late to work by a few minutes. OH and on my way to work it was raining which then turned into slush which then turned into FULL BLOWN SNOW.  Seriously!  Like a blanket of snow was falling and I felt so helpless.  Needless to say nothing stuck and by the time I left work at 3PM there wasn't a single trace of snow.  Nice trick, Mother Nature!

As for my goals I set today I completed a lot of them.  Woke up early, went to work, thrifted a little with my sister.  No, the gym didn't work out so well for me because I am so exhausted.  I did pick up an Xbox Kinect today with Dance Central so in all fairness I did put in some work on that game.  I love it so far!  I'm probably going to head to bed in a few so I can catch up on some much needed ZzZz's and hit up the gym in the AM with Ashley my sister.  For real this time.

I'm feeling good, universe.

Enough with the want's, more with the do's

Small to do list to remind myself of the small, yet important things that need to get done tomorrow:

- Eat breakfast and take vitamins.
- Pay half of my AT&T bill.
- Pay half of my student loan bill that is overdue.
- Pay Maribel what I owe her.
- Visit a thrift shop with Ashley.
- Make a week's worth of a meal plan.
- Food shop.
- Gym.


Happy April!! Looks like April is staying true to its roots. New York is a very wet state right now. Despite my disdain for cold weather, I actually enjoy the rain.
