Adele - Lovesong (The Cure cover)

On days when life seems to beat me down, I can always count on you! Here's to my love!


"Whenever I'm alone with you, you make me feel like I am young again.
Whenever I'm alone with you, you make me feel like I am free again."-Adele

Loving her new album, thank you Mimi! <3 It's just the music therapy I need right now!

Morcheeba - Slow Down

I am also currently OBSESSED with this group and her voice! Thanks Andy!

Train - Marry Me

I am in love with this song....only because I can't wait for what the next five years will bring me...

" I promise to sing to you...when all the music dies..."

Ok...so the new year has been so refreshing! My main objective is to be a more positive me! Pretty much...not being the usual me! hahaha I am excited! Today was a great day! I can not remember the last time I had one but it was so nice! :) I had a great game of tennis with my sister,her husband, and friends and it was so nice to be outside enjoying the great weather! After that I bought some awesome shoes! tehehe And then back home and just spent time talking and doing nothing with my parents and sister....discussing life and all the great things to come in the near future. Like I said...today was great! And then I chit chat with my beloved cousin. hahaha Boy...she always has the best stories! :) I love our conversations! :D Full of sighs and laughter! Oh how we've grown up...and still growing! ^__^

So...the night doesn't end there....a girlfriend and I decided to grab a glass of
wine...yum....I love wine! tehehe So...as we enjoyed our wine...we were interupted by quite the chatty older men. what can I say...I am a man magnet! BAHAHAHAA Anyhow, as these men made the night quite uncomfortable...I put my Southern University skills to use. It was quite awkward but you might as well make the best of it! Anyhow....long story short...drunkass homeboy sitting across from me took himeself down, along with 3 barstools to the ground! OMG...IT was HILARIOUS!!!! HAHAHAHA I am still laughing from the memory. I love random nights like this..it makes for great story telling! :) I hope everyone has been enjoying the new year as much as I have! CHEERS! Lets do it right in 2011!!! Let do it big!

January Again

It's January again...already? Boy did 2010 fly by. I don't know what awaits in 2011 but I hope it's a promising year! lol This year has been filled with plenty of ups and downs. I made many memories and had a blast doing it! This wasn't a year for me, but a year for my friends. Many of my friends had a BIG YEAR! I was happy to be apart of it! There for support and encouragement! Congrats to my lovely ladies for all their hard work and accomplishments in the past year!
Oh my gosh, I didn't realize it until my dear cousin reminded me that it's been 12 years since my grandfather past. Time really does fly by when you are not paying attention. We've all grown so much. The parents grew a part, but somehow all the cousins seemed to get a little closer. That is a warming feeling. At the end of the day, your family is truly all you have. I am glad we all have one another through bad times...and GOOD TIMES! :D Nothing like partying with your family...it doesn't get any better than that!
Lets see, I passed the hardest class in the department. I still smile really big when I think about it. This past fall semester was rough but it is also over and it's smooth sailing now on out. I am excited about graduating soon but a bit timid when the thought of "what will I do with my degree" crosses my mind. Luckily, I am not the only person that asks themselves that but I wish I was one of the few who had an answer instead. Oh well, lets see what the summer of 2011 will bring me. I will wait patiently! 2 more semesters and I will be free.
I don't know where to start as I recollect my thoughts about 2010. It came and went. Everything happened so quickly. I can say I've watch myself fall in and out of touch with myself. I began the year very calm and collected and ended on a rather peculiar note. Unfortunately, I have allowed some of my "bad" behavior to follow myself... as well as others into the new year. I hope they can shake it, as I am trying to do so myself. As I recently read in a friend's post, in the new year...I am going to try to "NOT" be me. I am going to be outrageous. We'll see how this goes. lol
I am proud to say I've come to terms with many people in my life. I've learn to accept certain relationships...for what they are. And what they are can sometimes mean not being close, not being a "best friend", and not being there. Instead, it is better to stand by. Simple as that. It is foolish to hold onto something that is not of mutual understanding. In order for any type of relationship to work, both parties must agree on the terms. No agreement means back to the drawing board. Sometimes it is better to lose a friend then keep trying. It can be the much needed serenity to calm the soul. Some people are meant to be in your life, and letting go is ok.
Last but not least, the love of my life...my best friend. He is someone who loves me unconditionally. I have never met anyone who tends to my heart's desires. He is my backbone, a reminder that it is ok to be vulnerable, and my voice of reason. The thing that I love most about Anthony is that he also loves those that are important around me. It displays his ability to love. I am excited about our future. I know we will be challenged by life, but Anthony is my armor. For he will protect me, and I will carry him.
Goodbye 2010, hello 2011. Best wishes to everyone.
This is my FAVORITE SONG OF ALL TIME!!! it melts my heart!!! :)
