Guess Who's Back?!?

It's ME snitches!!

I've been gone for a few....celebrating birthdays and such :)

I'm 23 now, whoo hoo!!

Anywho, before I get started I wanted to tell you three things I learned while celebrating my birthday down in Atlanta....

1. Before a celebrity asks you if you want a drink, and they do something you want to do, take the opportunity to network......

2. Floyd Mayweather is ignorant

3. Don't regret anything you've done, especially where people don't know you!

(I will take the time to explain each of these!!)

So with the first lesson I learned, as I stated before, we (we being my girls and I) went to Atlanta to celebrate my 23rd birthday! That Thursday night, we went to this awesome club called Opera, and we were in VIP--since my friend knew a promoter & it was my birthday celebration too! When we first got there, of course the first stop was the bar. Everybody got their drinks then as we're standing there, I feel somebody tap me with a little force on my back. I thought it was one of my girls, but none of them said they'd done it. So then this handsome man starts laughing and says "It was me".....I initially had no clue who he was, then my friend whispered to me that he was Nephew Tommy from the Steve Harvey Morning Show. (If anybody reads this & they don't know me, my dream job is to be an on-air radio personality) He bought us a round of patron shots & then me and my girls thanked him & walked away. STUPIDEST thing I could've ever done.....the next day, I woke up, with a sore knee *hahaha, I fell later that night in Opera* but I was beating myself in the head asking myself why I didn't take the chance to network....I'm still beating myself in the head as a matter of fact. So as I'd stated before, when you meet somebody in your field, NETWORK first, drink later :)

I think the second lesson is self explanatory.....Floyd was having a party at one of the clubs down in the A and he claimed he was supposed to be throwing out $40,000. (We went, but didn't stick around to see him or his money, club was TOO hood) But as he was on the radio, he just made no sense and sounded like a complete fool. Ugh, money just doesn't fix some things with some people huh?!? Shame!

Third lesson, is something we should all know. While this may sound like I'm kind of contradicting myself from lesson 1, it's true. The past is the past, and we only live once. I mean I know a handful of people down in ATL, so if I'd wanted to get buck nasty, I would've done so and not regretted it at all because it's MY life & I do as I please.......counted my lucky stars and kept it moving!

I loved it there but really missed my son too! Happy to have his bright toothless smile back in my life :o) Hopefully, he'll get to experience the things I've experienced when he gets older because I can say I've done a lot and I'm proud of it!

Well, that's all for right now!

First Day of Summer :o)

ToD:: Summertime-Fresh Prince & DJ Jazzy Jeff

It's the first day of summer, June 21, 2010! Yay, two days until my birthday....3 days until I'm in ATL with some of my main chicks! I'm too excited. Raleigh has been kind to me while I've been here, but I'm ready to get to the dirty south ;)

Today has been pretty chill. Got to chill with my baby boy and I loved it. He's just so happy and cheerful. Some people complain that their kids cry all the time, mine only cries when nobody is talking to him or when he's hungry. Hopefully that's a sign of a chill kid as he grows older.

Yet on to some other things going on in my life! One of my best friends is making dinner for me her and her sister tonight....yay!! Also, my son's father is taking me to buy me a few outfits tomorrow (an early birthday gift since I'll be going to take Myles to my grandmother's house ON my birthday....I always end up driving somewhere on my birthday aaahhh!!) But I think it's going to be a pretty good birthday overall. I'm going to surprise my mother with an early birthday dinner since I'll be out of town (her birthday is 3 days after mine). She and I both will be out of town, we never really spend our birthdays together lol, sad but true.

Tomorrow, we're planning on going to the pool....so maybe I'll take a few pix and post them for y'all to see! Sorry this was posted too late, but have a great night!

xo*

Thank you for being a friend!

....I don't think I'm going to blog about celebs anymore. I may have a little snippett of something that's going on but I don't think I wanna do that. Why? Too many people are already doing it, plus not too many people read my blog soooo what's the point??

I'm going to blog about my life & the people in it. I'll try to get back on daily, but as I'd stated before, times are hard & I REALLY need to find a job...for me & so I can continue supporting my baby boo :)

Before I go on an issue we should all know about, I just wanted to say you don't have to have a lot of friends to have fun. I have a good handfull of friends and when we get together & party, we have a lot more fun and a lot less drama then the million girl march friendships have.....the pic I posted was from last night. We partied at Hi5 (in Raleigh, NC) and had too much fun!! Now on to what is on my chest....

A SOCIAL NETWORK is just that....nothing more nothing less. So many people get caught up in the world of Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, and all of the other millions of networks out there. I don't understand why people try and get really crunk nasty online, but are the total opposite in person. Be who you are NO MATTER WHAT, be it internet or personally. Ugh! I just wanted to get that off of my chest because no matter what at the end of the day all you have is you. I just witnessed one of my really good friends go through some twitter bs that ended up off of twitter for no reason.

If you know me, I'm a go hard or go home kind of person. If I have something to say, I'll say it to you personally, then put it out there that I've told you (if I feel it's something that can be put out there). No need in faking the funk. It will get you NOWHERE in life. I mean maybe my opinions are out there and I may sound like I'm insensative, but it's me. Hate it or love it. At the end of the day, those who are there for me are there for me and I have my son with me as well.

Onto something else, I can't believe that it's almost been a year since the death of Micheal Jackson & Farrah Faucette. (sorry if I spelled it wrong) What a difference a year makes. We've also lost Gary Colemen and Rue McClanahan....sad days for us who have grown up watching reruns of Diff'rent Strokes & Golden Girls.

This time last year I was in Jersey preparing to come home from a wonderful pre-birthday weekend in New York with some of my best friends. Couldn't do much b/c I had my little bun in the oven, but a year later I must say his father and I have had some issues, but overall, couldn't be more greatful to have a man who loves his son and will put almost anything to the side for him.

(SN:: There was just a fire in the apartment complex, so I was just gone for what seemed like forever!!! Thank God for the men & women who risk their lives with any type of dangerous job)

Right now, I'm watching the American Dream: The Jackson 5 Story, I love it to death!!

So maybe I'll come back later, maybe I won't!

I really want to blog while I'm in Atlanta for my birthday b/c I'm sure that I'll have PLENTY to blog about! Hopefully I'll be partying with the celebs like I did the last time I was in Atlanta :)

Anywho, Happy Father's Day to all of the fathers out there who take care of their kids (and the mothers who have double duty as well)

God Bless you all (I know he's truly blessed me!!!)
