LEARNING ARABIC...AGAIN: (REVISITING/MASTERING)

Pretty much sums up how I feel about Arabic

A couple weeks ago, I was having a conversation with my mom about Islam. It turned into a reminiscing conversation, and how much we loved the religion/culture and how beautiful the Arabic language is. When I was younger, I attended an Islamic school, and this is where I was first exposed to Arabic. I was in 2nd/3rd grade when I began learning the language, and it was interesting to say the least. Looking back on my experience, I appreciate it more than I did. I'm even more impressed with myself that I've remembered as much as I have. Usually my memory is terrible, so that's a HUGE plus! 

I decided to register for a class in the Spring after the conversation with my mom. I didn't see a 101 course for the Spring and only 102 was available. I was still able to register for the class, so I was like cool! I get an email from the professor who teaches this course. She told me that I had registered for the wrong course, but they don't have a way to test out of it...it's more so at the professor's request. She asked me my exposure with the language, and that would help clarify what class I belong to. I explained to her about my experience at Islamic school, how knowledgeable I am with some phrases, and that I can speak it more than I can understand it. 

Numbers ---->

the alphabet --->

Long story short..she wants to test me!!??!??!?! I still say a couple phrases, the alphabet, surahs and numbers. It's definitely a difficult language, but I'm excited. Lastly, she mentioned with my experience I should be in 201?! Oh mah gah! That would be incredible, but I think being in 102 would be great for now, until I am really ready.

Have or are you learning a new language? Have you mastered any yet? 

DOES THIS EVEN MAKE SENSE TO ANYONE?!!?!!?!?!

LEAVE A COMMENT IN THE COMMENT SECTION!! I'D LIKE TO HEAR FROM YOU! EVEN A HELLO! IT'S BEEN A WHILE, SO I HOPE YOU DIDN'T FORGET ME! LOL!!

Evening blogging is a lot of fun for me...Hello, it's me again! I know I haven't talked to you for some time now, so this will be a nice read for you...whenever you read this. 

Let me begin with what I'm doing: Currently sitting at the kitchen table eating cream of wheat and having a cup of coffee because I just felt like breakfast for dinner. Today was alright...caught up on some shows, and played Subway Surfer WAY TOO MUCH today. I watched a couple YouTube videos (as usual), and checked some email. Later in the evening, I went to Walgreens. I was in need of coffee because apparently I drank too much and ran out of it. Came home, talked to my friend about random stuff..it's funny to reminisce about childhood, and our work experience and where we are now. God bless us! Came downstairs, made a pot of couple between the time I came back home and talking to my friend, took my dog outside, and sat at the computer to check my email once again. So the day wasn't too productive..tomorrow will be better! Ha, tomorrow! 

Anyway, I got back into blogging because I remembered how much I loved taking my mind off of things for a couple hours to just type my thoughts. I remembered starting this blog in a hotel room while I was on vacation. I didn't have much going on that evening, but somewhere along the night, I decided to start a blog. I went to Google, typed in "start and blog", this site came up and the rest is history. I never thought that people would actually read my blog post, let alone from different parts of the world. But I just loved being about to speak to someone other than myself..now I don't want it to seem like I'm a loner or anything..I'm very social..when I wanna be. It's nice to just share thoughts and feelings about what I'm feeling, in case someone out there is feeling the same way. I said feeling 3 times..make that 4 times! 

Let's talk about prayer for a minute. Prayer to me is important! My faith in God is important! I'm not very religious, but I do believe there is a God. When I pray, I pray not just for myself, family or friends, I pray for EVERYONE! Even those that cause harm to others in the worse way. I mean isn't that what is taught in religious groups?!?! I think about the world we live in today, and how things are constantly happening..probably as I type this blog post. I just want you to know that whoever, wherever you are, you're in my thoughts and prayers. 

Yes, I'm still doing Talk Radio. I was sleeping on everything lately because school was just all over the place. I seriously had class everyday and there was no room for blogging or radio. I did drop two classes because my professors sucked, the bus system sucked, and yeah that happened. I'm confident that I'll do ok in the rest of my classes. I didn't imagine my first semester to be this complex, especially after getting my Associates Degree in May...yeah!! Go me!! Education is always going to be important to me. I wish all my classes were online...well the pointless ones anyway. They seem to do me more justice, and not being in a class where I sit and look at a powerpoint presentation or watch a YT video. That's an insult to my intelligence; therefore, I sit those classes out. It's a waste of time for me to sit and watch a 50 min. video that I could watch at home..but I digress. 

The holidays are approaching and I'm like I'm broke...that's always funny to me. The good thing is that my family isn't like "where's my present at?!" or anything like that. My dad doesn't celebrate holidays, so that's good. Just spending the time with family is my favorite part..well and no classes. I literally just like being with them, the season changes to a tolerable one..well it's been weird (WINTER IS GOING TO SUCK!!!). Any who, I can't wait. I wanna make some cookies just to make them. I was on My Pinterest earlier and I was like COOKIES COOKIES COOKIES!!!! 

What music have you been currently listening to? I'd love to know because I'm constantly listening to the same thing over and over again. I'm really into Pandora, but do you ever notice that they don't change the music up much?!? I was on 8tracks but I noticed I was listening to the same playlist repeatedly. I can't understand a lot of the rap these days, so count that as a PASS!! I'm really into Marian Hill and some other artist. I like her voice, and how sexual the music is. 

CONFESSION TIME: I would so be a stripper. I mean I'm not the "ideal body type", but I am in my own way :p! I hear songs and I'm like YES, I WANNA DANCE TO THAT! If life was to get really bad, I'd do it. There's a strip club about 5 mins from my house (in a car). I was like I'd do that for a quick $100 if someone dared me to do it. I really like it as an art form though. I appreciate the human body so much more after watching it be more than just taking your clothes off. I mean I do that everyday when I get in the shower. I dance a little and twerk...yeah...

Lastly, I want to talk about how I am VERY FORGETFUL! I'm actually reading a book right now to help me with my memory..sad or what!! I went on My Facebook just now to get some pictures for the blog, and got caught up and forgot what I was doing on there to begin with..WOW!!

Well I'm going to leave it off here. I did post some things on My Beauty Blog, if you're into that sort of thing. I hope you missed me as much as I missed you. Not much has changed with me other than the fact that I graduated, started a new school, and I'm still natural. 

I don't have much else to say, so I'll leave it at this: BELIEVE IN YOUR DREAMS, AND REMEMBER TO BE AWESOME!!

QUICK REMINDER!

Good Sunday to everyone! 

I hope you are having a good morning/afternoon/night wherever you are. What's going on in your world today? I was just updating myself on what's been going on around the world, and how much we rely on social media to tell us about the world around us. Reread that sentence...Isn't that crazy?!? With things going on so rapidly, it's sometimes hard to keep track. 

NOTE TO YOU AND ME!

Oh shit....

Hello friend. I missed you. Did you miss me?

I know I've been an asshole, and haven't talked to you in a long time. It doesn't mean I stopped loving you any less. It's just that I let everything comes between us, that I forgot what was really important to begin with. That's you! You are important to me. Yes, I have school, and a career that I'm working towards, but what's that when I don't have you. 

My thoughts and feelings haven't changed, but I have to remember to make time for you. You come first, no one else! I will forever remember you because we are 1! I woke up this morning feeling a lot better! I was in a bit of a darkness this past week, and I had to let myself get through that tunnel to get to the light at the end of it! Remember when I use to tell you that? 

Open this whenever the light begins to go out. Here's a flashlight to help you see through the darkness. Sometimes we need that extra hand to pull us through. Keep these in your pocket whenever you need a reminder that I am always here. You're never alone because you have me, and others watching over you and praying for you. We love you!

MORNING REFLECTIONS AND MEDITATION!

Morning Reflections

On Sundays, I like to take the time to regroup and reflect in the morning with a cup of coffee. The moment the coffee starts to kick in, the world seems a lot clearer. I'm all about life quotes because they help me put more things into perspective. I recently did a blog post about staying focused on what you want in life. It's so easy to get caught up with what people are doing with their lives, that we can become lost in our own. I'm in the process of cleaning my room for the new semester (long over due). I tend to live a fast paced life during the semester, which leaves my room looking like a tornado hit it at the end. There's a small space in my room where I do my work. However, I'm in the process of creating a bigger space within this space that I'll call my 'INSPIRATION SPACE'. This positive space will spread throughout my room! When I get everything together, I will make a blog post on it. Stay tuned for that!

Meditation

Practicing mediation has been a huge part of my life since I was a little kid! I remember having this cassette tape I would listen to all the time. My life can become chaotic with the many things I have on my plate. I recently got back into meditating because I was so stressed. Instead of stress eating, I turned to meditation. It's not only a healthy alternative mentally but physically as well. My favorite time of day to meditate is at night. Sometimes it's hard for me to sleep because I have so many things on my mind. Here's one of my favorite videos I meditate to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jyy0ra2WcQQ. Definitely check this out when you get a chance! This is another great video I used a couple nights ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FiPDV9L5qpQ. 

I hope your Sunday is/has been lovely, and you're taking this time to reflect on your life.

BACK TO SCHOOL: MY BLOOM ACADEMIC YEAR 2015-2016 PLANNER!! MORE THAN JUST A PLANNER!!

Hey there! The school year is right around the corner, and I couldn't be more excited! Fall is my favorite time of the school year, and it's when I'm the most motivated. Prior to graduating with my Associates Degree, I never used a planner. When I was younger, I tried in grade school, but it just wasn't something I constantly stuck with. The first half of 2015, I became very busy, and yet I didn't reach for a planner. However, this second half of the year, my plate is becoming fuller and fuller! I told myself that I would get more involved in school once I transferred to Towson University.  

I had a conversation with myself, and said "DENISHA, YOU HAVE TO GET A PLANNER AND GET YOUR LIFE IN ORDER!!" Of course the first place I went to was Amazon.com because they have mostly EVERYTHING! I didn't want to spend a ton of money on a planner, and I didn't want a plain and boring one either. A reasonably priced academic planner was what I needed. After searching for about five minutes, I found the PERFECT PLANNER!! 

THIS PLANNER IS AMAZING! 

Bloom Daily Planner-Academic Year Planner

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00STUSXR0?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00

This academic planner is for Fall 2015- Spring/Summer 2016, which is perfect!! You know how some planners don't give you enough space to write on? Well this one does! 

It has these other features as well:

• MONTHLY TABS
• POCKET ON BACK INSIDE COVER
• *NOTES PAGES & TO-DO LISTS
• *CLASS SCHEDULING PAGES
• *ADDRESS BOOK
• *GOAL TRACKING & MONTHLY REFLECTIONS
• HOLIDAY ICONS & *INSPIRATIONAL QUOTES

*-These are my favorite features in this planner. Being able to make lists of things I need to get done for my courses/home/peer education makes my life easier. For the first week of classes, it's good to know where your classes are, and what days you have them. It's always good to make at least one of two friends in your classes. That way if you happen to miss a class, or need a study buddy, you have their information in your address book to get in contact with them. I'm all about setting and achieving my goals, especially in school! I've already written out some goals for the remainder of the year and this semester! The monthly reflections in this book will really help me stay on track, and focused for the next month. I live for inspirational quotes! It's important for me to speak things into existence! There's not 1 but 2 INSPIRATIONAL QUOTES each month! 

Already filling it out!

I love how positive Bloom is with their planners! This company is all for empowering young women to achieve greatness and to believe in their dreams as well as themselves! 

HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT YEAR!

SUICIDE IS NOT THE ANSWER!

I always get emotional when I read about people committing suicide because I could have been that person. It's so easy to say "It gets better", but that's something you have to believe. Continue to move forward through the awful moments in life, so that when the great moments happen, you can look back and say "I DIDN'T GIVE UP ON MYSELF!" For me, placing my faith back in God was my moment of clarity. I prayed through the tough times, and when the great times came, I continued to pray. Life is all about ups and downs! Seek help if need be, but don't give up on yourself. I can honestly say that I've come a long way from where I once was.

Beauty and Health Benefits using Apple Cider Vinegar!

**Hello Beauty Enthusiasts! It's been a while..long story short, I HAD NO INTERNET FOR THE LAST TWO WEEKS! But I'm back now, and I'm excited to get some more blog posts out for you all. So stay tuned for some new stuff!**

 THIS IS THE ONLY ACV I REALLY LIKE! RAW AND UNFILTERED!!------>

My love for Apple Cider Vinegar began many years ago, but I only used it for one thing. I first started using ACV the day after my cycle would end. I found it to be a great way to get my PH balance back, and it left me feeling GREAT! In the past couple years, I've learned that you could use this amazing product for multiple uses. I started doing my research more and more on apple cider vinegar, and how I could get the most use out of it. Hopefully, you'll find these to be useful for you and/or you use it for other ways that I didn't mention. 



HAIR
During my transition year, I did a lot of research on natural hair, and discovered that many used ACV to cleanse the hair. When I use shampoo, it tends to leave my hair feeling very stripped, and dry. I quickly opted out of using a shampoo on my hair when more new growth began to grow out of my scalp. I learned that using ACV helps to clarify your hair, and it leaves your hair feeling soft. The way I use acv is by pouring 1 part acv into a spray bottle, and pouring 1-2 parts water into the bottle. I shake it up a bit and then spray on my hair. I gentle massage it on my scalp to lift the product buildup, leave it in for about 5-6 mins and then get in the shower. After I thoroughly rinse it out, I follow up with conditioner and do the rest of my routine. I clarify my hair once a month now, and cowash every two weeks. 

SKIN
I have had the on and off battle with acne, which is why I'm slowly changing my lifestyle to help with that. The more I research about the ingredients in products, the more I look to natural ways to combat my acne/scars. Through my research, I learned that some people use Apple Cider Vinegar as a tone for their acne. I've tried this a couple times, but never to really see a difference. I did use it on my skin before I went to sleep last night, and the size of the pimple on my cheek is beginning to decrease. I'm going to try this for the next 6 days, and see if there's a decrease in my acne. *NOTE: This in combination of drinking more water, cutting out sugar (all the good crap), etc. I'm about to end my cycle, so my skin is beginning to calm down again.* I 1/2 cap of ACV and place it into a bowl. Then I use water to dilute it a bit because it is very strong. I use a cotton ball, or toilet paper (not ideal, but if I don't have a cotton ball) and dip it in the solution. Use this like you'd normally use toner, allow to dry then continue with your skin routine. 

PH BALANCE
Have you ever tasted Apple Cider Vinegar? IT DISGUSTING!! But it's beneficial to the body. My little sister and I had a contest to see who could drink it and not freak out! Needless to say, we both tapped out! Despite the taste, ACV is great to drink daily for digestion along with other great benefits. One of those benefits being Ph balance. Along with my 7 day challenge to use it for my skin, I'm going to drink a cup of 1 cap full of ACV and a cup of water. I tried it yesterday, and it wasn't that bad. I think the more I drink it, the more I will get use to it...HOPEFULLY! 

EARACHES/INFECTIONS
Unfortunately, I suffer from having earaches/infections from time to time and it's terrible. It really puts a damper on my mood, and leaves me feeling like I'm going to die. I blame my brother for stabbing a Q-tip in my ear when I was younger. Now It's just something that happens every now and then. Sometimes I get 'Summer's Ear' in the shower, and it takes forever for the water to come out. Up until last night, I would use Hydrogen Peroxide to clean my ear out, which helps a little bit. Going to the store and purchasing medicine is a close second when I feel like that isn't working. I was sitting on the computer and decided to search 'apple cider vinegar for earaches'. Surprisingly, ACV helps with that too! All you need to do it take 1 part of ACV and 1 part water, sit a cotton ball in the solution and put it in your ear for 5 minutes. I kept mine in for a little bit longer. After I took it out, my earache pain decrease a lot more. I had a slight irritation today, but it's not compared to how I felt last night. I'm going to try this again, and hopefully in a couple days, my earache will go away. 








MORE USES FOR ACV------>

ACV AND MY HEALTH JOURNEY

I'm becoming more and more simplistic when it comes to products I use. I've always been one to Google "home remedies for _____" because I don't like a lot of the ingredients in products. If I can't pronounce it, I don't need it in my body/skin. My health journey is all about using things that are good for my body, mind and spirit. As I stated before, I'm slowly making that change in the foods I eat, and the products I use on my skin and hair. 

AS ALWAYS I HOPE YOU ENJOYED THIS POST! PLEASE CHECK OUT MY OTHER BLOG POSTS AS WELL. LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK, BUT GIVING THIS A GOOGLE+, SHARE, COMMENT AND JOIN MY GROUP!

Online Dating: Too good to be true?? *UPDATE ON WHAT HAPPENED?*

Online dating is equivalent to jumping in the deep end of the pool when you can barely swim! Sometimes I dip my toe in just to see how cold the water is. When I do this, it's fucking freezing!! Just like when I begin talking to someone that peaks my interests on Okcupid.com. We begin conversing about our interests, and things seem to be going alright. A part of me is into it, but majority of me constantly says, "He's on that bullshit!". Then when it doesn't work out, I'm between "I knew it!" and "Damn, again!". It's TOO easy to find someone to have a one night stand with. It's a completely different story when you're wanting to pursue a relationship. The good thing about all this is that I don't have to worry about regret...still, it's a fucking bummer!

TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE?

I recently began chatting with this guy on the dating site. We visited each other's pages, and I thought he was cute and interesting, but I just left it there. He messaged me with a long note that I thought was different. Different in the sense that most guys usually say, "Hi." or "Hey beautiful." or some other type of short message. His was different though. As I read over his message to me, I kept thinking, "Is this too good to be true?" My dad always told me growing up, "Denisha, don't get your hopes up too high. You might get hurt." Since then, everything that happens in my life, I decided not to get my hopes up too high, cause it could lead to disappointment. In recent years, I decided that disappointment isn't such a bad thing. I mean, yeah shit hurts but I'll eventually get up and continue moving forward. 

I took a couple minutes before I responded to his message. I responded to him, first thanking him for the kind message, and continuing the conversation he was talking about. He mentioned being new to the city, and wanting to meet people. He told me that he liked my profile and thought we had similar interests. It's always nice to meet people who have similar interests because it gives me something to talk about other than myself. Don't get me wrong, I'm an interesting person and all, but it always feels one-sided.

*Matt* was different from the other guys I've been talking to, which is why I'm a bit conflicted. His long ass messages were refreshing I have to say. We started emailing each other.

Real or Catfish?

But, something just seemed a bit off..First off, he told me that he was in Africa. He told me his story about how his mom passed away when he was younger, and he dad was always away on business trips so he lived with his aunt in Africa. He just recently moved back to Baltimore because his dad passed away, and he was taking care of his finances. However, he had to go back to Africa because his aunt fell ill, so he was nursing her back to health. YOU CAN SEE WHERE THERE'S BEGINNING TO BE A LOT OF QUESTIONS! As much as I wanted to believe that this person was real, there was a huge part of me that kept thinking, "HE'S A GOOD LIAR. WHO WILL TELL YOU THIS LONG ASS LIE OTHER THAN A CATFISH???" Maybe I've begun putting too much thought into this show, but that seems a bit of a stretch. On top of that, I asked if he could Skype chat with me. This was his response, "I can't Skype from here till I get back to the states because my phone is broken and currently not working so I have to fix it or get a replacement when I return. I'm using computer for now and the internet connection is encrypt by the Internet service provider so I only have access to email and few things." Do you believe this, or nah? 

I checked my Okcupid inbox today to see if people sent any messages. I noticed that his picture was no longer on there. I attempted to view his profile, but it said he deleted his account. I went to my email, and sent him this message:I just wanted confirmation that this isn't a fake person. You seem too good to be true at some points reading your emails. I happened to go on Okcupid today, and notice you deleted your account. If you could take a picture saying "Hi, Denisha. I'm real." or something to confirm this is *Matt* that would be great. I will do the same in return. I don't have any expectations with anyone I talk to online. I enjoy the exchange of emails, but I don't want to get my hopes up and you're not who you say you are. I hope you see where I'm coming from, and don't get offended. I have yet to talk to someone who is a Catfish. 

Once again, I hope you don't take offense to this. I just don't want my time wasted. 

After all, a picture is worth a thousand words...

Hope to hear from you soon *Matt*. I like talking to you, and if this is really you, I hope to get that picture.

-Denisha   

I got so caught up with the messaging that I didn't ask for a picture up front. I didn't think about it until I sent this email to him. If there's anything I've learned with online dating is that a looks can be deceiving. I mentioned sending me a picture with a message. I don't think that's too much to ask for. It would make me a lot more comfortable knowing that I'm talking to the person in the photos. 

I will keep you posted about this...

*- Matt is not his real name.

UPDATE: SO DUDE OF COURSE ENDED UP BEING A FAKE. HE KEPT GETTING OFFENDED WHENEVER I WOULD ASK ABOUT WHO HE WAS. HE ASKED FOR MONEY WHICH WAS A RED FLAG. I THOUGHT IT WAS HILARIOUS THAT HE THOUGHT I'D GIVE HIM MONEY. IT'S SAD THAT PEOPLE FALL FOR THIS STUFF, GIVE MONEY TO RANDOM PEOPLE. I CAUGHT HIM IN HIS LIE, AND HE STOPPED RESPONDING. 

SOMETIMES YOU'RE JUST FEELING A LITTLE DOWN!

SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE I TRY SO HARD WITH MY SHOW AND BLOGGING. I LOVE DOING THIS, AND I LOVE THAT YOU LOVE THE CONTENT THAT I PUT ON HERE. I JUST FEEL LIKE I'M TALKING TO A WALL HALF THE TIME BECAUSE I NEVER SEE PEOPLE ENGAGE IN THE CONTENT I TALK ABOUT. I DON'T WANT YOU TO THINK THAT I DON'T APPRECIATE YOU. I REALLY DO, AND I LOVE YOU ALL! I JUST HOPE THAT YOU CAN LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT SOME THINGS I TALK ABOUT ON MY SEGMENTS AND BLOG POSTS. 

I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH!

ONLINE DISASTER DATES!

THE DATING STRUGGLE IS REAL! THIS IS EXACTLY WHY I'VE BEEN IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH MYSELF FOR THE LAST COUPLE YEARS. UNTIL RECENTLY, I WASN'T INTO ONLINE DATING, BUT FIGURED I'D GIVE IT A SHOT AND SEE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN. IF YOU HAVEN'T HEARD ABOUT MY FIRST DISASTER DATE, CHECK OUT MY RADIO SEGMENT! THOUGH THAT WENT COMPLETELY SOUTH, I DIDN'T LET IT STOP ME FROM CONTINUING TO BE ON THE DATING SITES. AS OF NOW, I HAVE NO EXPECTATIONS WHEN IT COMES TO TALKING TO PEOPLE...ESPECIALLY ONLINE! 

SINCE IT'S SUMMER, I'M UP FOR PRETTY MUCH ANYTHING! I NEED TO CATCH UP ON SOME MOVIES, SO UNTIL I FILL MY MOVIE QUOTA, EACH DATE WILL BE AT THE MOVIES! IS THAT FUNNY OR WHAT? DURING THE SEMESTER I AM 100% FOCUSED ON SCHOOL. I RARELY PAY ATTENTION TO OKCUPID OR POF...OR ANY OTHER SITE FOR THAT MATTER. I JUST FEEL AS THOUGH BEING ON DATING SITES ARE A ROLLER COASTER RIDE. MY MOM LAUGHS WHEN I SAY I HAVE NO EXPECTATIONS WITH ONLINE DATING, BUT SHOULD YOU REALLY? 

I WENT ON A "DATE" YESTERDAY, AND LET ME JUST SAY IT WASN'T SOMETHING I WOULD DO WITH THIS PERSON AGAIN. DUDE REALLY THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO KISS HIM, AND BOO LOVE WITH HIM WHEN I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW HIM! THE FIRST TIME YOU GO ON A DATE WITH SOMEONE, YOU SHOULDN'T BE THIRSTY AS FUCK! ALSO, THERE'S ONE THING FOR SOMEONE TO COMPLIMENT ME ON MY BEAUTY, THAT'S NICE! HOWEVER, CONSTANTLY SAYING IT, AND THEN GOING FROM SWEET TO CREEPY WITH "THOSE SEXY LIPS AND CHOCOLATE SKIN"...O_o NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! SERIOUSLY!?!? 

IT'S A COMPLETE TURN OFF TO BE ALL IN MY FACE WHEN I'M TRYING TO WATCH A MOVIE. ON TOP OF THAT, HE CHECKED HIS PHONE AND WAS TEXTING OTHER WOMEN (WHICH I DIDN'T COMPLETELY MIND BECAUSE I WASN'T INTERESTED), BUT THAT JUST SHOWED HOW MUCH GAME HE DIDN'T HAVE! WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THESE GUYS ON DATING SITES? DON'T TELL ME YOU WANT A RELATIONSHIP, AND TRY TO JUMP MY FUCKING BONES ON A FIRST DATE! 

I GOT HOME, AND HE THOUGHT HE'D GET A KISS GOODBYE!! HAHAHAH, WHAT AN IDIOT! 

QUICK UPDATE!

CURRENTLY SITTING IN THE DARK, CANDLE LIT AND MUSIC PLAYING.

GOOD MORNING WORLD!! HAPPY SATURDAY!!!

LEAVE A COMMENT!!!

GOOD MORNING! MY SLEEP SCHEDULE IS SO WEIRD. I WAKE UP SUPER EARLY EVERY MORNING NOW, EVEN WHEN I STAY UP LATE! IT'S A WORK DAY, AND I'M CALLING FOR A SHORT-INTENSE SHIFT. LIKE I USUALLY DO, I'M SPEAKING THAT TODAY IS GOING TO BE ANOTHER AWESOME DAY INTO EXISTENCE!! I HOPE YOU LOOK AT TODAY AS BEING A BEAUTIFUL ONE, OR THAT YOU HAD A BEAUTIFUL ONE. 

I NEVER THOUGHT PEOPLE FROM AROUND THE WORLD WOULD BE READING MY BLOG, AND I'M SO THANKFUL FOR YOU ALL! I'D LOVE TO TRAVEL TO THESE PARTS OF THE WORLD, SO HOPEFULLY ONE DAY I CAN BE BLOGGING FROM YOUR AREA!! I POSTED ANOTHER EMBARRASSING STORY...IT MAY BE A BIT TOO MUCH, BUT I WANTED TO TELL IT ANYWAY. 

I'M ABOUT TO JAM OUT TO SOME MUSIC AND GET MY DAY STARTED! 

REMEMBER HOW AMAZING YOU ARE IF YOU'RE FEELING A BIT DOWN TODAY! EVERY EXPERIENCE IS A LEARNING EXPERIENCE, AND YOU'RE GONNA BE STRONGER IN THE END!! I LOVE YOU AND I WISH YOU WELL. I WILL BE BLOGGING ALL WEEKEND, SO STAY TUNED FOR SOME NEW STUFF!!

EMBARRASSING STORIES: NERVES TURN TO DIARRHEA RIGHT BEFORE SEXY TIME! WARNING!!! TMI STORY!!!

THANK YOU FOR ALL THE SUPPORT READING MY FIRST EMBARRASSING STORY. I DIDN'T THINK IT WAS GOING TO HAVE THE RESPONSE THAT IT DID. PEOPLE ARE STILL VIEWING IT, AND HOPEFULLY YOU'RE GETTING A LAUGH FROM IT. I LEARNED TO LAUGH AT MYSELF EARLY ON IN LIFE. WHAT ARE SOME OF YOUR EMBARRASSING MOMENTS? I'D LOVE TO KNOW!

STORY TIME:I WAS DATING THIS GUY MY FRESHMAN YEAR OF COLLEGE, AND I CAME HOME TO VISIT HIM. WE WERE HANGING OUT, JUST MAKING OUT AND ALL THAT GOOD STUFF. THINGS TOOK A TURN WHEN HE DECIDED TO WHIP OUT A CONDOM, AND I STARTED FREAKING OUT ON THE INSIDE. I EXCUSED MYSELF TO THE BATHROOM AND BEGAN TO PANIC!! THERE WERE SO MANY THOUGHTS RUSHING THROUGH MY HEAD, AND MY NERVES STARTED KICKING IN. 

AT FIRST, IT WAS JUST "OMG, WE HAVEN'T TALKED ABOUT HAVING SEX. I'M A VIRGIN!! MY MIND'S TELLING ME NO, BUT MY BODY IS TELLING ME YAAASSSSS!!!" ALL THESE THOUGHTS CAUSED SO MUCH ANXIETY THAT MY STOMACH STARTED TO HURT. I MEAN LIKE I HAD TO TAKE A SHIT!! I DID NOT WANT TO TAKE A DUMP AT MY BOYFRIEND'S HOUSE! GRANTED WE'VE KNOWN EACH OTHER FOR 5+ YEARS, BUT THIS IS BOYFRIEND ZONE NOW. AS I PACED BACK AND FORTH IN THE BATHROOM, ALL I COULD THINK WAS, "HE'S PROBABLY THINKING SOMETHING IS WRONG IF I'M IN THE BATHROOM FOR SO LONG." 

I COULDN'T KEEP IT IN ANY LONGER....

I WAS RELIEVED AT FIRST BECAUSE NOTHING CAME OUT...BUT THEN MY STOMACH REALLY KICKED IT! THERE WAS NO AIR FRESHENER TO COVER THE FUNK, AND THAT WAS JUST THE BEGINNING. TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE, I CLOGGED THE TOILET! THIS HAD TO HAVE BEEN A SIGN NOT TO HAVE SEX! AND IF I ATTEMPTED TO HAVE SEX, I'D GET SO NERVOUS IT WOULD CAUSE DIARRHEA!! I STARED THAT TOILET DOWN, NOT KNOWING WHAT TO DO BECAUSE THERE WASN'T A PLUNGER IN THE BATHROOM. 

I DECIDED TO WAIT IT OUT A BIT UNTIL THE SMELL SUBSIDED, AND SEE IF I COULD PLUSH THE REMAINS OF THIS HORRIFIC EVENT DOWN THE TOILET! STILL, THE TOILET WAS CLOGGED! AT THAT POINT I JUST SAID FUCK IT, IT'S NOT MEANT TO BE TODAY. I WENT DOWNSTAIRS WITH MY HEAD REALLY LOW AND SAT ON THE COUCH. MY BOYFRIEND WAS SITTING THERE WONDERING, A. WHY WAS I IN THE BATHROOM FOR SO LONG? AND B. WHY WAS I BEING QUIET ABOUT IT? I QUIETLY WHISPERED, "I CLOGGED THE TOILET." HE SAID "WHAT?" I SCREAMED.. "I CLOGGED THE TOILET!!!!!"...................

SILENCE........

HE WENT UPSTAIRS AND UNCLOGGED THE TOILET. *JUST IMAGINE THE SOUND OF SOMEONE UNCLOGGING A TOILET*. THE EMBARRASSMENT WAS SO OVERWHELMING, I LITERALLY LEFT MY BODY FOR A COUPLE MINUTES!! 

NO ONE WAS IN THE MOOD TO HAVE SEX ANYMORE THAT DAY...

AFTER THAT, I STAYED FOR A LITTLE LONGER, BUT IT WAS JUST AWKWARD SO I WENT HOME. WE DIDN'T SPEAK ABOUT IT ANYMORE. I DID SPEND SOME MORE TIME OVER THERE, BUT I DECLINED THE SEX EACH TIME FROM THAT POINT ON..

THINKING BACK ON IT NOW, I JUST CAN'T HELP BUT LAUGH! 

HEALTHY LIFESTYLE GOALS!

I'VE HAD THE COMMON STRUGGLE WITH MY WEIGHT AS MOST PEOPLE DO. THERE'S TIMES WHERE I'M REALLY INTO FITNESS AND EATING RIGHT. PEOPLE START TO NOTICE I'VE LOST WEIGHT, AND CLOTHES BEGIN TO FALL OFF OF ME. THEN FOR SOME FUCKED UP REASON, IT'S LIKE I TAKE 40 STEPS BACKWARDS!!! "WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED?!" I ASK MYSELF. THUS I'M CREATING A NEW PLAN FOR MYSELF, THAT WILL ENSURE THAT I WILL STAY ON TRACK TO A BETTER LIFESTYLE. THERE'S NEVER BEEN A CERTAIN PANT SIZE OR WEIGHT THAT I WANT TO BE AT. I NOTICE THAT PEOPLE AROUND ME TEND TO DRIVE THEMSELVES CRAZY DOING THAT, AND I JUST DON'T WANT THAT FOR MYSELF. WHEN MY ENERGY IS GOOD, THAT'S WHEN I KNOW I'M DOING RIGHT BY MY BODY. BEING ABLE TO RUN UP TWO FLIGHTS OF STAIRS AND NOT BE TIRED IS WHAT I MISS!!! I'M NOT EXPECTING AN OVERNIGHT SUCCESS, AND I'M STARTING WITH SMALL STEPS. I FIGURE THAT WAY I WON'T FEEL OVERWHELMED, AND I'LL HAVE MUCH MORE SUCCESS. IN THE PAST, I'VE TRIED SLIM FAST (YEAH RIGHT!), AND A COUPLE OTHER PRODUCTS. I FEEL LIKE WHEN I BECOME RELIANT ON THESE FAD DIETS, I DON'T GET LASTING RESULTS. ALSO, IT'S FUCKING EXPENSIVE TO SPEND A TON OF MONEY ON THAT STUFF. 

SINCE I HAVE XBOX WITH KINECT, I'M GOING TO USE THE BIGGEST LOSER WORKOUT I HAVE. I ACTUALLY LIKE IT DESPITE THE KINECT NOT PICKING ME UP THE WAY IT SHOULD. I THINK SOME OF THOSE GAMES ARE RIGGED THOUGH. THINK ABOUT IT, THE BLACK EYED PEAS EXPERIENCE AND THE BIGGEST LOSER MAKE ME WORK 5X HARDER THAN I HAVE TO WITH THE OTHER GAMES I HAVE! BHAHAHAH!!!

I WAS GOING TO LIST THE FOODS I NEED TO GIVE UP, BUT I'M PRETTY SURE IT'S SELF-EXPLANATORY, RIGHT? SUGAR, FATS, PROCESSED FOODS, AND ANYTHING ELSE THAT ISN'T GOOD FOR MY BODY I NEED TO GIVE UP. SLOW AND STEADY WINS THE RACE! IT'S LIKE SOMEONE TAKING COFFEE AWAY FROM ME WHILE I'M SLEEPING. WAKE UP TO FIX A CUP, AND IT'S NOT THERE! WHAT THE HELL!!!! OH HELL NAW! 

LASTLY, THESE ARE MY GOALS FOR GETTING A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE:

1. WORK OUT AT LEAST 3 TIMES A WEEK
2. DON'T EAT AFTER 7PM
3. HAVE A CHEAT DAY ONCE A WEEK
4. DRINK MORE WATER! DRINK MORE WATER! DRINK MORE WATER!
5. GO TO BE BEFORE 11PM
6. PREP MY LUNCH FOR WORK
7. SET ATTAINABLE GOALS FOR MYSELF
8. ADD MORE FRUITS AND VEGGIES TO MY DIET
9. DRINK WATER BETWEEN MEALS
10. ADD $1 TO A JAR EACH TIME I WORK OUT

I GRADUATED, CONGRATS CLASS OF 2015!!! PICTURES BELOW!!

THERE'S NO GREATER FEELING THAN SETTING GOALS AND ACCOMPLISHING THEM! AS I TOLD YOU ALL ON THE SHOW, THIS SEMESTER HAS BEEN A BITTERSWEET ONE! I MET SOME AWESOME PEOPLE OVER THE LAST COUPLE MONTHS, INCLUDING MY PROFESSOR WHO WAS AMAZING! EARNING MY ASSOCIATES DEGREE IS JUST THE FIRST STEP TO REACHING MY GOALS. I CREATED A 1 YEAR PLAN TO GET MY DEGREE, HAS A CERTAIN GPA, AND ATTEND TOWSON UNIVERSITY IN THE FALL! I WAS ABLE TO SET GOALS FOR MYSELF, AND ACCOMPLISH THEM! I'VE SAID IT COUNTLESS TIMES ON MY RADIO SHOW, SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO BE BROKEN DOWN TO BUILD YOURSELF UP AGAIN! 

TESTIFY TIME!! I WENT FROM FAILING OUT OF SCHOOL, BEING ON ACADEMIC PROBATION, WANTING TO QUIT, NOT DRIVEN, AND FEELING LIKE A FAILURE! I WASN'T MYSELF A COUPLE YEARS AGO, AND I REALLY HAD TO LOOK WITHIN MYSELF TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS GOING ON. I ALSO TURNED TO GOD AND PRAYED TO GET PAST THE MULTIPLE OBSTACLES I WAS FACING. I WAS MY OWN ENEMY, SO I NEEDED SOME MENTAL AND PHYSICAL HEALING. IT TOOK SOME TIME, MUCH GROWING TO DO, BUT I STARTED PROGRESSING MORE AND MORE. ONCE I FOCUSED ON THE POSITIVE RATHER THAN THE NEGATIVE, EVERYTHING BEGAN FALL IN PLACE! NOW I HAVE MY ASSOCIATES DEGREE, BUT I'M NOT STOPPING THERE! THIS IS JUST THE FIRST STEP TO MY ULTIMATE GOAL! THIS IS ALSO THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP IN ACHIEVING MY ULTIMATE GOAL! IF IT WEREN'T FOR BEING BROKEN DOWN AND BUILDING MYSELF BACK UP, I WOULDN'T BE AS CONFIDENT, FOCUSED OR DETERMINED AS I AM NOW! LIFE IS ABOUT GROWING AFTER ALL, AND I STILL HAVE MORE TO DO! I'M SO APPRECIATIVE FOR THE SUPPORT OF MY LOVED ONES! THEY'VE BEEN THERE FOR ME THROUGH EVERYTHING, AND I DEFINITELY WOULDN'T BE HERE WITHOUT THEM! 

REMEMBER, YOU CAN DO ANYTHING YOU PUT YOUR MIND TO!

EVER BEEN UP SO LONG THAT WHEN YOU BEGIN TO TYPE IT FEELS LIKE LIQUID UNDERNEATH YOUR FINGERTIPS? OR IS IT JUST ME AND I NEED TO CLOSE MY EYES?

THIS IS MY LAST WEEK OF CLASS AND I'M EXCITED, BUT IT'S BITTERSWEET! I'M GONNA MISS MY PROFESSOR AND MY CLASSMATES FOR THE MOST PART. DEFINITELY A GOOD WAY TO END THE SEMESTER WITH A GOOD CLASS! WELL I'M GONNA GO NOW, HAVE A CUP OF COFFEE AND TRY NOT TO FALL ASLEEP...IF I DO, AT LEAST I'LL BE REFRESHED WHEN I WAKE UP!

MOFO ALLERGIES!!!!

FOR YEARS, I USED THE WHOLE "I HAVE ALLERGIES" TO GET ME OUT OF SITUATIONS. PARTICULARLY SCHOOL THINGS, LIKE FAKING CRYING SAYING "MY ALLERGIES ARE ACTING UP.

ON A BETTER NOTE, I'M GETTING STUFF DOWN (PAPERWORK)FOR TOWSON. I MAY NEED TO GET A PLANNER THAT WILL KEEP ME MOTIVATED TO ACTUALLY USE IT!

LET'S TALK ABOUT IT: BALTIMORE RIOTS..THE LACK OF CONVERSATION IN AMERICA ON RACISM!

CLICK HERE TO LISTEN TO MY OPINION ABOUT THE BALTIMORE RIOTS! WHAT'S YOUR OPINION ON IT? http://www.blogtalkradio.com/coffeenofilter/2015/04/27/baltimore-police-brutality-protests-riots-premonitions-world-peace

IT'S TERRIBLE WHAT'S GOING ON IN BALTIMORE. I DO LIVE IN BALTIMORE, MD! I KNEW IT WAS JUST A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMETHING WERE TO HAPPEN HERE, AND IT'S DISAPPOINTING THAT THE CONVERSATION ABOUT RACISM IN THIS COUNTRY IS RARELY TALKED ABOUT UNTIL IT'S TOO LATE! I DECIDED TO VOICE MY OPINION ON MY RADIO SHOW BECAUSE IT BECAME BOTHERSOME. I HOPE TO OPEN A CONVERSATION ABOUT THE DEEP ISSUES WE HAVE IN THIS COUNTRY; WITHIN OUR COMMUNITIES AND EACH OTHER! IT'S WHEN SITUATIONS LIKE THIS OCCUR THAT WE NEED TO STAND TOGETHER INSTEAD OF TURNING THE OTHER CHEEK. WE HAVE TO STOP POINTING THE FINGER AND LOOK AT OURSELVES! WHAT ARE WE 'NOT' DOING AS A COUNTRY TO PREVENT THESE RIOTS FROM HAPPENING??? THERE'S PLENTY THAT NEEDS TO BE SAID, AND I FEAR THAT WHEN THE STORM CLEARS, QUESTIONS WILL STILL BE LEFT BEHIND AND UNANSWERED! PLEASE WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE!! DON'T BE IGNORANT TO THE WORLD YOU LIVE IN. LET'S COME TOGETHER AS A HUMAN RACE, AND TACKLE THESE ISSUES HEAD ON...INSTEAD OF LETTING THE "DORMANT VOLCANO ERUPT"!

Thoughts on creating another blog!

LEAVE A COMMENT!!!

Hey peeps,

So lately I've been talking a lot about hair a lot since I've recently went back to being natural. I'm in my second week of being natural, and I'm still enjoying it. Today, I was on the computer (as usual), and I had a thought of creating another blog dedicated to hair and possibly makeup from time to time. What are your thoughts on this topic? Since no one ever leaves a comment, I will go by the views from this post. BTW, do you guys try to leave comments (ever)?


I'm in the thinking process of this right now, but I'm gonna get some much needed studying done for class..

COLLEGE SERIES PART 3-->LINK BELOW...ALSO, TEXTBOOK RENTAL INFORMATION!

I recorded my last college segment of the 3 part college series!! I'm excited about it, and I think you should be too. It's a great listen with lots of tips and advice for anyone entering college for the first time, or continuing their education.

Here's today's segment--->http://tobtr.com/s/7517527

Here's some websites I talked about during today's segment for renting textbooks. Listen to the advice I tell you before opting to rent though. Nothing bad, but just something you should keep in mind....

These two sites are my favorite for renting books!

Chegg's attention to their customers is great, and it's always nice to talk with them on Twitter if you have any questions about orders, books, tips, etc!
www.chegg.com

Amazon is another great site for renting textbooks! They also have a Student Prime Account, which you can get for 6 months free! You just need a student email account, and if you wish to continue after that trial it's $49. You also get 2 day free shipping, along with some other great benefits.

COLLEGE STRUGGLES: PROCRASTINATION AND LAZINESS!!

I HAVE NO DESIRE TO SIT AND STUDY FOR THIS EXAM ON MONDAY!!!

I just did a segment on college and the importance of being able to manage your time and how procrastinating is the enemy. I guess these past couple days that have been really bad caused me to be really lazy. Problem is that I can't be lazy right now, I need to get some work done. It's beautiful outside, but I'm in no mood to step a toe outside. I don't deserve to go enjoy the good weather, NOPE NOT AT ALL!! I got a major part of studying done though; INDEX CARDS!!! My main source to study is REPETITION!! I need a power nap though...maybe that'll help refocus my mind and get SHIT DONE!! 

Don't forget to check out my college series:

Part 1: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/coffeenofilter/2015/04/10/college-part-1-did-that-really-happen-the-stuff-they-dont-tell-you-tips

Part 2: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/coffeenofilter/2015/04/11/college-pt-2-some-more-tips-feeling-unprepared-time-managementbff-etc

WELL, I'M GONNA TAKE THIS POWER NAP AND GET MY SHIT TOGETHER SO I CAN ACE THIS EXAM AGAIN....WELL PASS IT'S CHEMISTRY...DON'T WANNA GET TOO AHEAD OF MYSELF HAHHAHAHAHAH!!! O_O
