What do you really want, maybe not for you.
Okay, if you have been under a rock then you know you TLC is,correct. Well, one of the members,Chilli, has her own dating show the airs on VH1. It's a pretty decent show, of course those dating shows can be kinda, well stupid. But, this one has me shacking my head, and thinking what the hell is she doing?? Well, she has a list that is, even for me, too extreme. The dude has to be damn near perfect to be with her. Well, it's not the list that has me buggin, it's the preference that has my eyebrow raised.Well, on this season she has only dated white men. And yes by all means date other races besides your own. When you date outside of your race you can decided what type of person you really want in life. But, why only white men? She hasn't dated any Asians, blacks, or any other races. They have all been European, and one Spanish gentleman, but I think he was from Spain, but I could be wrong. The reason why I have such a problem with this is; because, their our many eligible bachelors that our in the world, not just Black men, Asian men, or White men. But, I really feel she has given up on being with a black men, and thinks okay I'll just give the opposite race a try. It's kinda like a women that has bad track record with men, so she decides to become a lesbian. Can you see the stigma behind this? I honestly feel there is someone for every one but some people,including men and women, are looking for that one that is the perfect one. But, I hate to destroy someone's fantasy about their soul mate, but no one is perfect and every one has flaws. When God, place the one for you in front of you, it wont be what you expected, but exactly who you need in life. And, when we start thinking with both the heart and the head and let the higher power lead you to the right one. Well people I'm tired of complaining about Chilli, so I'll end it with this. Let love be seen with the heart and not with the eyes.

My Dream of becoming...healthy

I feel like a child approaching Christmas day! To know that I will be taking the first steps toward my goal of being 49 pounds lighter! It has been a trying goal. I started at 209 and lost 40 pounds and it was super hard. But, now that I've reached 169 it has been even harder to lose, what I consider, the last 49. Why has it been so hard? I have no clue and really don't want to stress over why the scale hasn't moved. But I will say I'm not happy with being at 169. Yes, I have lost a lot of weight on my own, but now it's time to take it up a notch and try new things and push my body to the limits. However, why the issue of weight so prevalent in today's society? Yes, I understand the health concerns of being over weight. But, why the focus of being skinny and not healthy the main goal? Being underweight is a health concern as well, but that is a goal of many women and men. And, that is truly sad! Why do I bring up the debate or being over weight and skinny? Well, when losing my weight I noticed my body was not as slim as I thought it would be. My thighs are huge and muscular and my arms are not small but they are muscular as well. So,if you're wondering why the pic of the girl is on this posting, then you guessed right. That's the direction my body is going in, and that's my ideal goal that I'm trying to reach. No it's not a body like some of the curvy celebrities but it is a body that is fit and strong and I like it.

When it's time to step back and focus on you.

When you look back on your life and see that most of your focus was on someone else and not on you. When you look in the mirror and don't even recognize who the person is staring back at you. When you see people moving up the ladder and you haven't even taking the first step to move up. When someone looks at you and says,"Damn what the hell happened to you!" Or, when you just get fed up with the mundane ordinary surroundings! So, with all that said that was me and one years ago all that happened to me. And now that person is dead! Yea, she died two years ago Jan 01, 2010. Ohh don't cry! That person was just in the space of life living it, instead of enjoying it. When it is time to step back and do you? I say do it right now! Don't just sit back and watch others succeed in life, and don't let others take your joy away. So when you read this think is this person me, if it is Step Back evaluate life and begin to take care of you. And like the pic says LOVE YOURSELF!

New Year weight loss plan!
So it is the New Year and people all over the globe have made the resolution to become fit and lose those pounds gained by Holiday goodies. But many will do it for a week and then fall off the plan and go back to the same habits of being unhealthy. But, there are the few that stick to their plans for having their own dream bodies. So for starters lets get one thing down, it takes 21 days for anything to become a habit. So, if you stick to any plan for 21 day, that plan will eventually become a habit. Now that we have the mental aspects of dieting out of the way lets get down to a plan of action. My plan of action is to tackle Nutrisystem. Caution, before you do any plan of action to lose weight, research it! And that's what I did with this plan. I went to youtube, I looked it up online, and I called and ask questions about everything under the sun. But, you have to ask or you'll never know, right?So, lets get into the meat and potatoes of this program. As of right now they have the 2003 prices so a 28 day plan is 300.00 dollars which is kinda pricey but so worth it. You have to add fresh grocery items to the food, and for women calorie count is 1200 calories. Sound pretty good, so I will be purchasing this product when I get paid. And posting pictures of the products as soon as they come to the door! But for now I will be eating sensibly and working out two times a day like I usually do. I know your asking your selves, why not purchase your own food and do it that way. But being a full time nursing student, sometimes you want to just get something without thinking about what to cook and how to cook it. So, my other dieters let do it!

University of Miami on my mind

I really enjoy college, not to say that to sound fake, wish washy, or whatever you may believe. But, I really do enjoy learning and opening up my mind to new ideas. However, the not all institutions of learning are made equal. For example, The current University that I attend now is a school I wouldn't recommend my worst enemy to attend. I will not say any name but you might of have see the commercials, or lets say the name is a popular hospital in California. But, I believe that a person makes the best of a situation and not just quite and throw in the towel. However, when it comes to your education sometimes a move could be the best option for anyone that is looking for quality education and not a quantity education. So, with that being said, and being a nursing student, I've decided to transfer to the University of Miami and continue my education at one of the most acclaimed school located in southern Florida. But, with change comes sacrifice and hard decisions. If, well not even a if, when I transfer study habits will have to be improved, and partying has to be balanced. And why do I mention partying, umm if you haven't heard Miami is poppin all the damn time. And the University of Miami is known to be a party school, so it would be safe to say that partying is apart of going to school. It's not just studying that is required, but partying is required as well. So, ladies and gentlemen I have no life, as of right now, and LOL! it is required that I have a life!? How do I go about doing that? How do I balance studying and partying??? Well damnit I don't know but I am willing to take the challenge on! All joking aside I plan to attend due to the fact that the school academics is awesome,it's located in Coral Gables, and the have active social scene for students. But there are steps, and I still have some reservations about attending a school that has so many beautiful people. And did I mention the yummy guys that attend? All I will say is, HOLLA! Okay, back to business at hand. I guess the switch, to any school I attend, is a decision that needs to be taken seriously and thought through.
