Being Yourself Creates Gossip

When do you ever hear about a nobody? NEVER! People only talk about people that are doing something in life, that are changing for the better, that are progressing in their journey. So many people aren't true to themselves or stop doing what they want due to talkers. The old saying is true: If they're talking about you, you must being doing something right. If I stopped being me every time I heard or saw a negative comment about me, I would be sitting still on my couch 24/7. The devil uses people to get into your brain. The more hate, the better you are doing and they closer you are getting to your blessing. NEVER stop what you are doing because of the attention it has created. NEVER compromise your wants because someone is jealousy. TRUE friends will assist in your dream, not make fun of it. KEEP being who you are because YOU were intentional in this world. :)

New Noah 2014 Movie

So I just got home from the movies and yes I’m a huge movie buff. I went to see Noah starring Russell Crowe. I must start by saying I love Russell Crowe, he is one of my top 10 favorite actors. I knew the movie would be good because of the previews but it was so much more than that. IT was great! Probably one of the best movies I’ve seen this past year along with a few others I have previously written about. It was written in the biblical sense but also had so much more content in it. It went deeper into the characters than I thought it would. Anthony Hopkins was also in this movie which was a surprise, I love him too. It reminded me of Braveheart and Gladiator as far as the shooting of the scenes. If you want to see a movie with action, a deep story line and great graphics, go watch this. I really enjoyed this movie and cannot believe how good it was! 10 out of 10 in my book!

Horrible Gym Observations 2014

So every time I go to my gym, it's always SOMETHING! So here are the three things I noticed lately that bother me! You can probably relate and if this is you, change your ways! :)
1- WOMEN WITH THEIR HAIR DOWN Lord this is a pet peeve! Yesterday I saw a woman with her hair down and curly as if she just spent 2 hours curling it. Leave your Kim K/Beyonce hair for OTHER activities! Put your hair up!
2- BEING ON THE PHONE AND ON THE MACHINE I don't believe there's anyway to have an effective workout while spending it on the phone. Switching hands while switching machines is a joke. And they wonder why they look the same a year later! Have your conversations BEFORE or AFTER your workout. Focus...
3- WORKING OUT WHILE SICK Maybe I'm too much of a Germ-a-phobe but it makes me cringe when I see people sneezing and coughing while workout out, wiping their face, then touching the machine! Your sharing your sickness and people don't want it. This is the prime example why I carry sanitizer EVERYWHERE I go. If you don't feel good, please stay hope, get better THEN come to the gym. We would all appreciate it.

Now these are just my personal opinions but bottom line- we need to be better people! :)

Best Stores Ever

Okay so everyone has their favorite stores and I do too! I won't Shop everywhere but here are 3 stores I LOVE!
1-SEPHORA I spend all my money here! I'am a makeup queen and I MUST HAVE the best of the best. Sephora has not only the best makeup but skincare as well! Love the product, love the options, Love everything about Sephora. Anything you need, GO HERE!!!

2-FOREIGN EXCHANGE I hate when people have what I have SO I go here and get signature pieces. They have the cutest dresses and tops at a reasonable price. Everytime I go in to look, I come out with a bag. Great for basics and funky pieces. They have the best selection and they offer mens clothes as well.

3-VICTORIA'S SECRET My fav fav fav sexy shop! Best panties in the world, will not buy my undergarments anywhere else. They also send out great coupons and perks for shopping there! I want my picture to be on their wall one day BUT for now, I love shopping their. Plus the quality of the underwear is great.

Gym Etiquette

Okay so I recently posted about crazy gym nights. I think some people need to know what is appropriate and what is not. SO here are my 3 gym etiquette tips I hope people take to heart :)
1- NO BOOTY SHORTS WORN AS GYM SHORTS We all know you cannot bend over let alone run or move in shorts all the way up your backside SO instead of trying to get attention from men, let's stay focused on why you are there: TO WORKOUT! You look like a fool and we all know why your wearing those teeny weeny shorts. Sorry but self esteem is found through self growth, not attention from your shorts lol just saying!!!
2- REFRAIN FROM ROLLING TO WORKOUT WITH ALL OF YOUR COUSINS AND FRIENDS AND BROTHERS Everynight there is at least one group of men who literally come to workout with 5+ in their party. This is okay if your hooping or plying racket ball, I get it. BUT everynight this group doesn't do either, they take up machines for 30 minutes and socialize more than they workout. The gym is not a frat house or a bar, your'e there to get in shape. So limit yourself to 3 or less in your party so you can stay focused and not waste your gym membership.
3- NO YELLING ACROSS THE ROOM AND GRUNTING TO YOUR FELLOW GYM MEMBERS I cannot tell you how many times I hear men over my music yelling and making sounds not normal for the human body. Talking is fine, but talking at a level where people doing cardio can hear you is too much. You can walk over and say what you need to, so please refrian from yelling. I also understand men usually hype themseleves up before lifting but pounding your chest, pacing while flexing and talking to yourself in the mirror is not effective or attractive.
Hopefully these tips help my fellow gym goers. I know these issues are an epidemic these days, but hopefully I have shed some light on these issues and possibly create a change :)

Newest Addition To My Work

here's the newest photo I have posted! Getting back into modeling this year so take a look! Also visit my other sites. Any feedback and love is appreciated! thank you all!!!! xoxo

Favorite New Product

IM BACK!!!!! It has been a while BUT I am back in action. My first post had to be a good one so I'll share my secret! For about a month I have been using a new product and I swear by it! It is Luster NOW toothpaste. It freshens but also whitens incredibly! My favorite new product by far. I paid $6.97 at Walmart and it was definitely worth it. Go try one now!!!

Money Comes, Money Goes

man oh man let me tell you guys! I work full time just to get by but somehow by the 2nd week my money is either low or gone! I noticed for me i spend almost $300 every two weeks which is why I'm investing in a NEW fuel efficient car in about a month! so this got me thinking. Yes we work to get by but it goes SO QUICK! so what should we be doing with our money? Here is my top 5 that fits me :)

1- PAY YOUR BILLS
Make sure your making credit card payments, gas card, insurance, anything that is mandatory, take care of it! so much easier in the long run.

2- PERSONAL NECESSITIES
For me that is things like books for school, work clothes, things that I personally need to get by each day with out minor glitches.

3- INVEST INVEST INVEST
Stocks are things most people don't think about but we should! we could make a lot of money overtime that could be extra income. Also, cars are a big investment. Make sure you choose wisely!!!


lets try to save our money or at least make more in the process :)

SPARKS!

So by now we all know how it feels to meet someone, fall in and out of love, have our heart broken, learn lessons the hard and easy way. We have experienced it all. But how do we keep the spark?! My ideas!

-Don't nag. see the bigger picture. Pick and choose your battles careful. How to pay the bills is more important to discuss than "why are you 5 minutes late?"...

-Be yourself from day 1. Feelings and ideas change quickly the second someone finds out you've been deceiving. Nothing sexier than an honest person.

-Keep it fresh! Pizza & movie at home one night, massage day with your honey the next, mini golf the next week! We all like stimulation, so keep it interesting

- Explore new avenues. Include eachother in things you might have done solo normally. Go to gym together or grocery shop! It's the little things that spark our attention.

We all will have our own ideas on what works for us but bottom line, we cannot expect things to change if we don't. A SPARK is very important, creating it isn't the issue but sustaining it is. We can all learn from eachother. Brainstorm. Explore. Be creative. KEEP IT SPARK-TASTIC :)

10 days of My Birthday!

Well technically I have been counting since Nov 1st lol, my bday MONTH! just joking. Anyways, theres 10 days til my birthday, 9 days in about an hour. People always ask me what I want, what do I like etc. First and foremost, I rarely get alot of gifts, a few if Im lucky so I appreciate it when it does come. Here is the funny part about what I like and It is very twisted! I LOVE gift cards! Why is this twisted? Because I REFUSE to give them as a gift lol. I feel that shows my lack of thought as a friend, like I dont know you well enough to buy you a gift. But those who know ME, know i love getting gift cards! Dumb huh? Anyways , what places do I like? Heres where you learn a lil sumthn' about me :)

-Starbucks
-Sephora
-Macys
-Gas GiftCard
-Sunglass Hut
-Any food place
-Walmart
-Best Buy
-Spencers
-Apple

NONE of those places are related, but just proves how complicated I am :)

O for October

October is pretty awesome if you ask me. Why do i think that?
- Knotts Scary Farm

- Pumpkin candles & frapps
- Old disney halloween movies on TV
- Glowsticks

Not to mention it marks the "1 MONTH" until my bday.
Whats your favorite things about October?

BTW if your gonna buy things for Halloween, do it 2 weeks before the 31st, you'll be shocked at how much cheaper it is :) friendly reminder....xo BE SAFE

Social Networks: Love or Hate?

It is CRAZY how so many people life through social networks these days. Forget about texts, calls or dinners with friends, just talk on your social network! Lol now I’d rather text, call or go out with friends to keep in contact but I think I only do that occasionally with about 2 people these days. Everyone has a preference though. In addition to that, the “news feed” or “tweets” I read are sometimes ridiculous to read. We ALL have issues but not everyone on your social network needs to know! So here are my little random “do’s and dont’s” for your site. Given everyone has a different opinion which is AWESOME, but this is just MY opinion & what I feel would make these social networks a more positive environment!

DO POST:
-Good events in your life! Birthdays, promotions, anything positive you’ve experienced that day etc.
- Pictures/videos that show the real you without being graphic or derogatory. Beach photos, gradutation videos or even random outing with friends are pretty cool in my opinion.
-Questions or ideas to generate positive energy/thoughts/conversation! Like how I post my questions/statements of the day! Sometimes we have a random thought or question and posting these gets others involved and “juices” flowing in a sense, sometimes they also lead to making new connections!
- Music or things that you found/discovered that others might not have seen or know about! Sharing is caring and I know I love quotes/videos that others post that I haven’t seen/heard yet.

DO NOT POST:
- Posts including labeling words such as bitches and hoes, liar, curse word this and that etc. YES we all have friend/men/women issues BUT seeing 9 out of 10 negative posts including curse words and labels is TIRING AND OLD!
- Naked or suggestive content with minimal clothes. Anyone can be naked on a bathroom sink or posing in front of a mirror. All that makes me think is “wow, never is that cool” and it makes me smh. Don’t degrade your greatness!
- Threats or posts tagging people in them where you’re negatively addressing them. An ugly character makes me run and delete ya! Not attractive :-]
- Anything with HATE in it! This world has enough problems and if some people only know you from these sites, always being hurtful or pessimistic is an ugly trait, so please refrain. “Where is the love”

So in conclusion, I think its all common sense really! I’ve been guilty of posting negative things due to my “bad day” but there’s always something bigger than our petty issues. I’m so tired of reading posts with a negative undertone to them so let’s try to make online a better place :-] xo

Photoshoot- Costa Mesa, CA

So here I am! Trying to step up my game! I shot the first week of June with my boy Jay in Costa Mesa, CA. The name of his company is James Kruythoff Photography. Message me if your interested with working with him and I'll link you up! This was my first actual photoshoot where I was in and outta the water. Jay is AWESOME and his pix are flawless! More shots from this shoot will be uploaded to my website, coming soon :) xo

Random or Normal

We all have little random things we do/like but are they really random or normal?
What I do may be random to you but normal to me and vice versa.
Who’s to say which is right or what is normal
All I know is I’m definitely different :)


Random or Normal?
-I cant sleep unless I have the covers over me.
-Dresses have to be 1)short and 2)paired with tall heels.
-My closet is color coordinated, lightest to darkest, left to right.
-I won't eat/drink anything that will turn my mouth colors.
-My water has to come in a certain type of bottle or I won't drink it.
-I rinse off all can tops before I open them.



Random? probably... Normal? Yup

Be Yourself

Some days are longer than others,
Some people advance faster than others,
Some people fall in love while others stay single...
One thing that you can control is who you are and who you can be
Be yourself in life, at work, when you meet someone, when you are alone in your own silence.
That is the best advice I can give to others and tell myself when things look down or when you come to a cross roads
Everything else will fall into place :)

Dream or Reality

Is true love a dream or a reality?
It is SO hard to determine these days. Most of us have been lied to or cheated on, know someone whose lied or cheated or have had our hearts broken and lies told to our face.
Dating is a vicious game. End of story. Point blank.
Not everyone has the qualities that make a relationship sustainable, whether you’re together or going on dates, the qualities make the person, their character doesn’t change and their motives shouldn’t either.
However, motives and actions DO change in those who aren’t true to the person they are portraying.
Today, one of my best friends found out his girl was going behind his back with another man. In my mind, this would crush me; I could only imagine how he feels. Now you think it would be common sense to those in a relationship to value their partner and their connection but sadly this isn’t always the case for one person in that commitment. So this got me thinking.
IS true love a dream or can it in fact be a reality?..... Yes, there are ups and downs, that’s with life in general. What makes me wonder is WHY is commitment and loving someone who loves you so hard? It shouldn’t be. There shouldn’t be so many curves and dark corners. There shouldn’t be so many fake words and distrusting actions. So how do you determine which is real and fake?
SO many things can be discussed when you ask “is true love a dream or reality because most of us have a cloudy, dreamlike experience where we feel like “true love” isn’t real… my advice?
All I can personally do is be myself. Regardless of those around me or those who chose not to embrace my love and affection. “Everything happens for a reason”. I believe I have a lot to offer so…. All we can do is try and wait…. Wouldn’t that be amazing is “true love” did exist for each of us? :) keep smiling…

Get the Popcorn!!!

Okay so I think MOVIES area great. Whether your going on a date, have a night off from work or just want to go out with friends, they are good for every occasion!
So a few of my FAVS are:
-Gladiator
-The Patriot
-BraveHeart
-Miracle At St. Anna
-Jumping the Broom
-30 Days of Nights
-Apocalypto

Now I know Im forgetting a few but those are DEF MUST SEES!!!!!


so heres my opinions on movies
Perfect date movie- ACTION or COMEDY....cant go wrong! lets both the man and the women enjoy themselves and the company

Rainy day movie: Something with a strong story line or real life event, like Miracle at St. Anna! Movie is AMAZING! I can watch it anytime (because of mr L.A. lol) but that movie has a very significant story behind it, makes for a good chill day or in this case, rainy day weather.

Love Making Night movie: Sexy romantic movie like "The Best Man" or "Brown Sugar" or "Jumping the Broom"..Those movies are not only well written, have amazing actors/actresses, but the LOVE in those movies is so strong, it will definitely make the women your with smile and put her in another mindset. As for the "love making", that parts up to you lol


Bottom line, i LOVE movies, and they can add to any occasion or mood you want to set!
