For all of you that don&#39;t know what that means here&#39;s a simple explanation. Most black women get a &quot;relaxer&quot; which is a chemical that permanently straightens our hair. To go natural is to not chemically straighten your hair and just let it grow, and usually it grows &quot;nappy&quot; or curly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So I&#39;m sure your big question is &quot;Ok? so why is this a big deal?&quot; Excellent question. The deal with going natural is if you didn&#39;t do this from birth and go the relaxed route then decide to go natural, like myself, you have to get rid of the &quot;relaxed&quot; hair and start over. So that&#39;s right you have to cut it all off. Now there are several other options, braids (which I did for most of the summer), twists, weave, and other things to smoothen the transition so you don&#39;t have to rock a mini for for a while.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well I made the decision to do the &quot;big cut&quot; today.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhU_98YkxXP3XuuP97f0ZOh_RJOcXMvAnKErMROCsz9-Hr1z7is2jFDAJyH0ICRjLDG4h1TlUCi738XFdsnno2YEbL4o8tHss-kCDHgPXFfS5vlTLvJYpBSsGwX1a-K-QWeMfiNr4d6J9k/s1600/image201208080005.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhU_98YkxXP3XuuP97f0ZOh_RJOcXMvAnKErMROCsz9-Hr1z7is2jFDAJyH0ICRjLDG4h1TlUCi738XFdsnno2YEbL4o8tHss-kCDHgPXFfS5vlTLvJYpBSsGwX1a-K-QWeMfiNr4d6J9k/s400/image201208080005.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I feel so......happy, liberated, free.&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#39;t know what it is but just getting that hair off my head was like a big weight lifted off my shoulder.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I will be getting weave done in the next 5 days just for convenience until my fro grows out a bit more. But stay tuned.

If this is the first of my blogs you&#39;re reading congrats! Your life was just made better....just kidding but I do appreciate all who read this and are interested in me and what I have to say/do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So this paragraph will mostly be a preface to the blog.&lt;br /&gt;
My senior year in high school I decided I wanted to become a hilltopper and attend St. Edward&#39;s University in Austin as a musical theater major. After a semester there I decided I didn&#39;t like the program and a few other personal things (which may or may not be explained later in the blog......guess you&#39;ll have to keep reading :p) so I decided to come back to Houston and attend Houston Baptist University as a Vocal Performance Major.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ok so now that that&#39;s been stated I can get to the more recent events. My closer friends know that over the last year I&#39;ve been struggling in my personal life. I&#39;ve been searching for myself and a place to fit in and it&#39;s been tough. I loved the friends that I made while attending St. Edwards (though they should SEND THEIR FRIEND A TEXT OR SOMETHING NOW AND THEN), but having a few friends and being in a program that you feel isn&#39;t tailored to your needs is a bit silly to me. Now because I recognize that I was a stupid teenager (and have a few stupid tendencies though not as many) I can admit this, I also left Austin for a stupid teenage reason....a &quot;man&quot;. My primary reason was the program but there was a good 10% of me that came back for him. I know now that was one of the stupidst things I could have done because I&#39;ve spent a year somewhere that I was not entirely happy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having said that , HBU is a great school.....just not for me. I&#39;m too much of an independent person to be in such a conservative setting. And I thought the classical training would be enough to launch me into the world of musical theater, but I soon found out that I&#39;d dug myself into a hole that until recently I thought I&#39;d be stuck in. As I said for St. Edwards, I&#39;ve made some really awesome friends at HBU, but no one that really understood me and yet another program for me.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Over Christmas break of 2011, I realized that something needed to change in my life because I was just miserable in about 80% of my life. My academics were seriously suffering and my GPA was the lowest it has ever been. My social life was pretty non existant and that&#39;s not how I wanted to remember my college years, friendless and boring. So I began my search to transfer....yet again. After doing some hardcore research I decided on Sam Houston State University in the small ton of Huntsville TX. There was a part of me that was about 10% unsure about this decision wondering if this is what God wanted for me. So I thought I&#39;d join my roommate for her usual Thursday bible study to see if maybe I could be more clear. After the first few week I did become more clear, but but not about college thing, more or less personal things which is still good...but more on that later.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
still with me...cool...you&#39;re awesome!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So I began working on the audition process for their nationally renound Musical theater program. After a minor setback I became a little discourage giving in to some belief that God did not want me there. But I held my head up high determined to make it&amp;nbsp; work because this was something I wanted. Long story short, I overcame the set back and am now 190% sure that SHSU is the school for me. At the audition, I meet so many people who understood me and that made me really happy to know that once I&#39;m there I won&#39;t have a problem fitting in at all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is the last paragraph I promise.&lt;br /&gt;
I must say I am the happiest I&#39;ve been in a while knowing that I finally get to start over. Most people get to establish themselves and start over as a new person when they go to college. When I went to college I had a boyfriend I was attached to so I never got that experience at St. Edwards of going out with friends and stuff. I moved back to Houston with a boyfriend (for like a week) and no friends so I never really got a chance to start over because I never found a group that I fit in with, that I could be myself around. Though I do not regret going to HBU, I see it as a learning experience that I needed to go through. As far as what I learned in bible study, I realized that it was time to let go of the anger I was holding in towards someone for deceiving me and towards myself for being susceptible to such foolishness. So I would like to say to him even if he doesn&#39;t read this that I forgive him because I know that he didn&#39;t know any better and I&#39;m sorry for being me and not conforming to who your mother thought I should be. At SHSU I&#39;ll finally get to start over no stupid boyfriend, no stupid program, and no insecurities about finding friends. I don&#39;t know if I&quot;m in the musical theater program yet but at this point that not important. I LOVE their program, the activities, my apartment, everything.everything. If you&#39;re interested as to weather I get in or not just message me or something.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
SO I noticed that there are a strangely high number of women are really dependent on men. I&#39;m not saying that if you&#39;re in a relationship that you shouldn&#39;t depend on each there, but there should be some level of independence. I just fell like women need to realize our power and strength.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#39;m also just frustrated in general, but then again when am I not. But some days are better than others. I just want some day when I don&#39;t end up crazy frustrated with the stupidity that surrounds me...and that once surrounded me.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://musicallytina.blogspot.com/feeds/4593048396339027963/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://musicallytina.blogspot.com/2012/02/no-creative-title-this-time.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1835078094709473657/posts/default/4593048396339027963'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1835078094709473657/posts/default/4593048396339027963'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://musicallytina.blogspot.com/2012/02/no-creative-title-this-time.html' title='No creative title this time'/><author><name>chris_shanay_g</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13569817043815374627</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEM-xvGHFoB7ebczIk4vdrvlgGl_GZx3vBPQC_7NkUz5N9GHX_7QlbOKfdZup9Vsh2g-yGdBWFcxu7hR4GZ2fXyuLX-83Bc2PvmTV0cMUz5e1y54DXCMKstOxgE9MjJ-s/s1600/*'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835078094709473657.post-7755468215203760134</id><published>2011-09-09T15:10:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2014-02-20T08:43:58.690-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Well I heard Jesus He drank wine......</title><content type='html'>Yeah so I often think of the Miranda Lambert song &quot;Heart Like Mine&quot; because (I&#39;m sure alot of people say this) but its a pretty accurate description of me. The chorus says &quot;Well I heard Jesus He drank wine and I&#39;d bet we&#39;d get along just fine. He could calm the storms and heal the blind and I&#39;d bet he&#39;d understand a heart like mine.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
I know that I&#39;m not the most likeable person and this is a message to all of those who are my &quot;friend&quot; on Facebook but you don&#39;t particularly care for me.&lt;br /&gt;
This is where I begin to slightly rant just fyi:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;iframe allowfullscreen=&#39;allowfullscreen&#39; webkitallowfullscreen=&#39;webkitallowfullscreen&#39; mozallowfullscreen=&#39;mozallowfullscreen&#39; width=&#39;320&#39; height=&#39;266&#39; src=&#39;https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZCbTICNAwxM?feature=player_embedded&#39; frameborder=&#39;0&#39;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;I consider myself to be pretty cultured when it comes to other Christian religions other than Catholicism. One thing about Christians in general that I&#39;ve never been able to quite figure out is that some have a very skewed view of the world. People try to keep their children from the &quot;evils&quot; of this world and from people who are &quot;a bad influence&quot;. If you ask me, which you didn&#39;t but who care, that&#39;s absolutely ludicrous! Living life like a horse with blinders is so uncultured and that&#39;s how we end up with stupid things like stereotypes. LIVE LIFE!!! Its OK to let your children explore the world. Now some uber Christian parent reading this may say, &quot;Now Christina,&quot; (here&#39;s where I roll my eyes), &quot;you don&#39;t have any children so how can you know this?&quot; Excellent question!! I don&#39;t know this. Its just my philosophy on life and if you think I&#39;m wrong congratulations you have just thought for yourself! Those same parent may also say, &quot;Well the Bible says&quot;, (this is where I dramatically sigh), &quot; that parents are to raise their children to be good Christians and live according to God&#39;s plan&quot;. My response: yes that may be true but the Bible doesn&#39;t say shelter your children that they are naive to the rest of the world.&lt;br /&gt;
I guess in a way I&#39;m so tired of being judged by people who don&#39;t really know me and take the word of other people on my character rather than just taking the time to talk to me and get to know me. It has recently come to my attention that people call me, as they once called Socrates one of the greatest minds to ever lived, a bad influence for their children. To a certain extent I would agree with you. If you think that someone who tries to show kids that there&#39;s more than one way to look at the world bad then yeah I&#39;m a terrible influence and I should be stoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To my most recent Socratic charge, my response: yup and I&#39;m proud to show the world without a biblical filter. Yes I go to clubs, yes I can sometimes be rather lude. I AM ME. If you don&#39;t like it MOVE ALONG! If your kids like me then they&#39;re smart. LET OTHER PEOPLE MAKE THEIR OWN DECISIONS!!! &lt;br /&gt;
Because I&#39;m a nice person I won&#39;t mention names but I&#39;m just fed up with being judged by people who &quot;claim&quot; to not judge others....lest ye be judged right?&lt;br /&gt;
I may be a &quot;heathen&quot; by some people&#39;s standards, but I love the Lord. I know how to pray. I am by no means passing judgement on a specific religion or sect of religion, I am simply stating observations that I have experienced. And if you happen to be reading this and think this pertains to you then feel free to express your feelings OF me TO me and not let me have to hear it through the grapevines. :)&lt;br /&gt;
And I started with Miranda so I&#39;ll end with Miranda. In the same song I mentioned in the beginning she say, &quot;I fly away from it all today&quot; and that&#39;s what I plan to do as well &amp;lt;3</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://musicallytina.blogspot.com/feeds/7755468215203760134/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://musicallytina.blogspot.com/2011/09/well-i-heard-jesus-he-drank-wine.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1835078094709473657/posts/default/7755468215203760134'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1835078094709473657/posts/default/7755468215203760134'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://musicallytina.blogspot.com/2011/09/well-i-heard-jesus-he-drank-wine.html' title='Well I heard Jesus He drank wine......'/><author><name>chris_shanay_g</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13569817043815374627</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEM-xvGHFoB7ebczIk4vdrvlgGl_GZx3vBPQC_7NkUz5N9GHX_7QlbOKfdZup9Vsh2g-yGdBWFcxu7hR4GZ2fXyuLX-83Bc2PvmTV0cMUz5e1y54DXCMKstOxgE9MjJ-s/s1600/*'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835078094709473657.post-4184083174894199988</id><published>2011-04-21T00:18:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-04-21T00:18:20.845-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Froggy Went A-courtin&#39;...and Was Left Wanting........</title><content type='html'>*If you haven&#39;t read &quot;Froggy went a-courtin&#39;&quot; then I would suggest you read that one first but completely up to you*&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So this blog is allllll about the concept of friends with benefits(FWB). There was just a movie made about it that some may say glamourizes the idea of just being fuck buddies (sorry if my language offends you....well I&#39;m not that sorry but whatever) but it will actually slightly support my side of it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I used to be all for the idea of FWB until I realized that it was just objectifying both parties. Some people, especially those of the male gender, don&#39;t seem to understand that. But think of it this way: just hooking up with someone is making them something for you to use to bring pleasure to yourself. Even if both parties are ok with that its still making the other person an object only useful for sexual purposes. Because I am not ashamed of what I&#39;ve don&#39;t I&#39;ll use myself as an example, but first. In that movie with Aston Kutcher and Natalie Portman (?) they want to be FWB but end up falling in love with each other, pretty typical movie plot line. But, the true thing about the story that I like was that they showed that no matter how much you try you CANNOT TAKE THE FEELINGS OUT OF SEX. No matter how much you try sex cannot be just sex there are always going to be pre, during, and post feelings no matter how much you try to suppress them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So one of my stories. (don&#39;t worry I&#39;m not using really names I would hate for someone to get called out for their bull shit (actually I would like to call them out but that would bring more unnecessary conflict to my life). So recently I have had many offers for FWBs which isn&#39;t &lt;i&gt;that &lt;/i&gt;unusual but I have found myself in several situations where me and a guy weren&#39;t on the same page on the nature of our relationship. One imparticular that I am still trippin on and will probably be kicking myself for a while about is I fools around and got intimate with someone (we&#39;ll call him Tin Man)that I&#39;ve know for the majority of my life. So what had happened was.......we kinda took our relationship from &quot;hey I know your name&quot;---&amp;gt; aquaintences--&amp;gt; friends---&amp;gt; maybe we should be more than friends--&amp;gt; FWB within a year. That sound relativly healthy in theory, but I was under the impression that there would be one more progression from FWB--&amp;gt; an actual relationship. I really like Tin Man and still do I think he could possibly be a soul mate, but I may never know because it was &quot;just a one time thing&quot; as he said. The bad part is no matter how hard I try to suppress my feeling they will come up when I see him at church ( so those of you that know me that well can filter through and maybe have an idea about who I&#39;m talking about [if you have an idea send me a message and tell me I&#39;d like to see who you think it is]). But yeah one of many examples that sex is not just sex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For some reason its hard to find guys these days that are looking for more than a FWB and when you do there&#39;s an issue; he doesn&#39;t like you, your not attracted to him, your polar opposites, you have nothing in common, ect. So if you&#39;ve got a good man or a good lady keep them cause its super hard to find good ones!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I was writing this blog I was listening to one of my favorite artists Ms. Jill Scott and I heard her songs &quot;Celibacy Blues&quot; and &quot;Wanna be Love&quot;(go get them they&#39;re awesome!). These songs brings me comfort when I think about some of the situations I&#39;ve put myself in. In &quot;Wanna be loved&quot; she says &quot; Don&#39;t feel no pitty for me cause I&#39;m going through some thangs&quot; and that&#39;s what I wanna say to ya&#39;ll. Just cause your life isn&#39;t that great don&#39;t go looking for pitty from others (especially not from me cause you&#39;ll find mine in the dictionary). She also says &quot;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: magenta;&quot;&gt;All my life I had a constant burning, A strong deep,desire, An aching ambiguous,yearning, For something better, For something bigger, For something wider, For something higher, And lots of regrets,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;background-color: magenta;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: magenta;&quot;&gt; Cause I ain&#39;t seem to found it yet......I just wanna be loved&lt;/span&gt;&quot; And that kinda sums up me right about now.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although I can go on and on and on about situations like the one 3 paragraphs up I won&#39;t. My point is that FWBs are not healthy. If you want to have sex that badly then take a cold shower or find another &quot;alternative&quot; or , here&#39;s a radical idea, find a significant other that you get to know and like and then progress to the point in a relationship where physical intimacy is appropriate for the 2 of you. I&#39;m not promoting premarital sex nor am I judging those of us that do it I&#39;m simply just trying to inform other of the mental consequences of FWBs. Like the title says you may be left wanting. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And to Tin Man if your reading this, which you probably won&#39;t but anywho, hopefully you understand what I&#39;ve been feeling over the last year or so and will want to talk about it. &lt;br /&gt;

So recently I&#39;ve been thinking about &quot;dating&quot; in our society.&amp;nbsp; I&quot;m not sure if you&#39;ve heard the song Froggy went a-courtin&#39;...if not look it up its a little nursery rhyme of sort. but that&#39;s where I got the title from just fyi.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Remember back in the day when dating was going out on a date......those were the good old days. Now I&#39;ve noticed more and more people are skipping the &quot;courting&quot; phase of the dating process and going straight into the &quot;going together&quot;, going steady, in a relationship part.&lt;br /&gt;
I have no problem with monogamy if that&#39;s what you&#39;re getting to. I am actually a supporter of it (I&#39;ll get to that later). But now it seems that in our society teens, and some kids, get way too serious way too fast. For example, I know several people that are in high school that have met someone and within a few days was &quot;dating&quot; them. Now I&#39;m not a hypocrite so I will go ahead and admit that I was guilty of this crime in my younger days, but now I know better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Back to my topic...lol dating and the confusion in society. I have been single for aprox. 3 months and have changed my view on it completely. I have decided to go back to the old school style and court a few guys and then decipher who it is I feel the most compatable with. Some people say that what I&#39;m doing is unfair and cheating and being a player, pimpette, hoebag, but my response is that I am not monogamous so therefore I can do as I please. I just wanted to make this suggestion to all those out there that are single: don&#39;t tie yourself down so quickly especially ladies. Test the waters out and then become monogamous.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

YES.....the day that drives men crazy and women even crazier....Valentine&#39;s Day. I am yet again Valentine-less. This is one of the holidays that I do NOT support. Its just a publicized excuse for couples to makeout where ever they damn well please. Its an excuse for girls to get presents and guys to get laid...(or so they hope lol). Its frustrating and slightly sickening, but I sadly have fallen prey to that feminine desire to want someone to snuggle with on V-day. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anywho topic two of this blog....books. Yeah i know it doesn&#39;t seem like that &#39;s something that follows that into but I promise they&#39;re kinda sorta linked. So about 3 weeks ago a little birdy told me that sometimes guys feel intimidated by girls that read. Now before you start burning bras and saying that all men hate intelligent women that&#39;s not what he meant. What he meant was that girls sometimes read books like Twilight or some other books geared towards teen girls (or that little hint of femininity in all girls) and guys are intimidated by the books themselves. They feel like they have to live up to the guys in these books and do exactly as they do other wise their actions go unappreciated. No I can&#39;t speak for all girls, but I know the difference between reality and fiction literature. I know that there are maybe 0.1% of guys out there that may possess some of the qualities that guys in novels posses and that they are in high demand so I&#39;m not expecting every guy I meet to be an Edwards Cullen or a Jacob Black. &lt;br /&gt;
Here lately I&#39;ve been reading this series called Drama High by L.Divine. She&#39;s an excellent Black author that writes for educated black girls/women. The main character in her book (and several others)reminds me of myself; she&#39;s strong minded, she has alot of drama surrounding her (that she&#39;s always dragged into) and she&#39;s smart and criticized by others for it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now how does that link with what I was saying? Guys and girls a like have no idea what the other one wants. You may think you know, but you don&#39;t! It slightly frustrates me that some guys have the mentality that they can&#39;t do anything romantic because it won&#39;t be appreciated or it won&#39;t be enough. If your girl is a trick (i.e. little girl) then yeah you risk her not liking it. If she&#39;s a girl then she&#39;s most likely think anything you do is cute, but she may have &quot;ideas&quot; about what &quot;romantic&quot; is. But if you have a mature girl (i.e. a woman not a little girl though I&#39;d argue you can be a mature girl and not a woman and a woman on the outside, but a little girl on the inside) then romantic is just showing her you care. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I personally read books like Drama High because that&#39;s honestly the only place I can find romance because guys these days can be trifillin&#39;. They either don&#39;t want to try to be romantic or they don&#39;t know how. The days of the gentlemen are gone. Now it&#39;s all about who has the biggest car and who has slept with the most girls well at least black guys. And then you have your pretty boys who take more time getting read than some girls. And the actual nice black guys are either taken or in a subcategory of the larger MISC. category. And white guys, most that I&#39;ve encountered, can&#39;t handle me. They say I&quot;m too loud or a bitch or too outspoken and I say....oh well forget you!....And other guys I just haven&#39;t dated or come in contact with so it wouldn&#39;t be fair to say something about their view of me. Now don&#39;t get me wrong I&#39;m not trying to judge these are just observations and there are of course exceptions to every rule.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I could go on and on but I won&#39;t lol. So this Valentine&#39;s day I&#39;ll either be staying inside and avoiding couples at all costs or be on a date with some lucky guy. But if your a 1 of 2, then Happy V day to ya&#39;ll and enjoy each others company and love. And if your a single like me then hey all I can say is keep looking and love will find you or be content as you are. Happy V day everyone and maybe next time I&#39;ll have a more happy blog.&lt;br /&gt;

So I&#39;ve that I don&#39;t like straight men......with the exception of a select few.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;I was driving home from the movies last night and a nasty ass guy pulls up next to me making lude and sexual faces and gestures at me. I was flattered at first then disgusted then freaked out as he followed me for about&amp;nbsp; blocks and continued his gestures at every light. Guys disgust me. And on top of that ex boyfriends just keep popping up with their same old crap, &quot;I&#39;m sorry&quot;, &quot;Why can&#39;t you forgive me and move on&quot;, &quot;I&#39;ve changed&quot;. News flash!&amp;nbsp; Yeah you are sorry, I will not forgive you and you have not changed because you are still the childish, immature, lame, and unsuccessful loser you were when we met, and when broke up. I don&#39;t even know why I bother. &lt;br /&gt;
I&#39;m so done. I know I say it a lot but I&#39;m seriously considering giving up guys and just going single. I mean I&#39;ll still have my children Johnny, Katie, Matt, Elise, Chris, Sweet Pea, and countless others. I mean all I want is to be happy with someone that understands me, but that could be hard seeing as how I am a difficult and hard to deal with lol&lt;br /&gt;
Its whatever though I&#39;m not even gonna trip. I&quot;m gonna live it up while I can and have fun (and start carrying my pepper spray). But if any of ya&#39;ll know a nice single guy....point them my way.&lt;br /&gt;

your right!!!&lt;br /&gt;
It&#39;s also a pretty good song from Kiss Me Kate&lt;br /&gt;
But yeah I do hate guys......well not so much hate as seriously dislike. I mean either I can&#39;t pick &#39;em or there aren&#39;t any good ones for the picking. I mean I&#39;ll admit: I maybe don&#39;t look for guys in the right places, but that&#39;s really no excuse. I just don&#39;t understand guys&#39; logic. Perhaps my expectations are too high for our generation. Everytime I&#39;m single I have this idea that I don&#39;t want to date anymore because it&#39;s too time consuming and frustrating especially for a chick like me....my other idea is perhaps I&#39;m meant to be single and that&#39;s God&#39;s plan for me and if it is then that&#39;s ok. But, my newest idea (for those who know him): become Spedale. His life revolves around his love for God, music, and children. I love all those things and it just seems so much easier and...you get to make up all these long useless titles for yourself lol. I don&#39;t WANT to be alone, but if that&#39;s what it comes down to I&#39;ll always have music. It may not keep my warm at night or take me to dinner, but it&#39;ll never hurt me......I think.........&lt;br /&gt;

So this is my formal statement letting all my friends and people know that I am officially leaving St. Edwards (SEU)and returning to Houston to attend Houston Baptist University (HBU).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some may be asking why. There&#39;s a simple explanation for that: I hate my roommate!!......no JK I love her!!!&lt;br /&gt;

So I was in town ,Houston, today and had dinner w/ my boyfriend. Long story short, we broke up. As I was driving back to my end of town I had an epiphany, &quot;Dating is like shopping: you see something you like so you buy it. You get it home and think you like it then after a while you decide that it&#39;s not &#39;you&#39; so you bring it back and that (insert item of clothing here) goes back on the rack for someone else to buy&quot;. I know brilliant lol, well not exactly Ghandi or one of those Greek philosophers but it sounded nice to me as I was driving. So I was thinking, &quot;hm, what item of clothing best fits me?&quot; I&#39;m not sure if I can narrow it down to a certain piece of clothing. Sometimes I feel like that one piece of clothing that ends up on the clearance rack for like a year. People buy it and return it and it just never seems to leave the store. This is a change usually by now I&#39;m bawling and wondering &quot;Why me? Why does this always happening to me?&quot; For some reason, at this current moment, I&#39;m OK and can actually laugh at my analogy of dating and shopping. Honestly I don&#39;t have the time or energy to go searching for a potential &quot;buyer&quot;. I&#39;m perfectly happy being the last shirt on the rack....for now.............I guess lol</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://musicallytina.blogspot.com/feeds/7055152061776714438/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://musicallytina.blogspot.com/2010/11/words-of-wisdomwell-at-least-i-think-so.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1835078094709473657/posts/default/7055152061776714438'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1835078094709473657/posts/default/7055152061776714438'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://musicallytina.blogspot.com/2010/11/words-of-wisdomwell-at-least-i-think-so.html' title='Words of Wisdom...well at least I think so.'/><author><name>chris_shanay_g</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13569817043815374627</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEM-xvGHFoB7ebczIk4vdrvlgGl_GZx3vBPQC_7NkUz5N9GHX_7QlbOKfdZup9Vsh2g-yGdBWFcxu7hR4GZ2fXyuLX-83Bc2PvmTV0cMUz5e1y54DXCMKstOxgE9MjJ-s/s1600/*'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835078094709473657.post-6574557750597707946</id><published>2010-10-11T20:14:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2010-10-11T20:14:42.584-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Again with the homework?!?!</title><content type='html'>Sup,&lt;br /&gt;
SO I know I haven&#39;t posted in like forever but I&#39;ve been busy procrastinating.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So I saw St. Pius X High school (in Houston)&#39;s version of Antigone last weekend. I must say I was quite impressed especially with the following people, they were a-freaking-mazing!!:&lt;br /&gt;
Janelle Walker- that was a sexy suit&lt;br /&gt;
Gwen Schell- I am slightly concerned w/ your brain cells though with all that shaking and throwing and what not&lt;br /&gt;
Nick Kellogg- You were good when we were there and you&#39;re still good&lt;br /&gt;
Those new black kids- I was impressed they&#39;re pretty good&lt;br /&gt;
Daniel Fernandez- Although you did our dance with someone else I&#39;ll forgive you for you good acting&lt;br /&gt;
Then after the show I had a lovely dinner with my loving boyfriend and my boyish daughter Juno.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So now I&#39;m facing a week where I just may die:&lt;br /&gt;
I had a project due today&lt;br /&gt;
I have a paper and a project due tomorrow&lt;br /&gt;
I have a test on Wednesday&lt;br /&gt;
I have TWO tests on Thursday&lt;br /&gt;

So I was really moved by Sunshine&#39;s performance of &quot;Listen&quot; from Dreamgirls. I just realized that I need to listen to the song in MY heart and you know find my own.

So I went to Houston for the weekend. I had an awesome time with Chris and Blake on the way down. I was counting the seconds until I saw my love(r). He met me at Chris&#39; house &amp;amp; I met him with a huge hug. I miss his hugs......alot..anyways. We went to a St. Pius X football game where I saw my lovely children Chandler Johnson, who knows my number if he wants to talk to me, and Flat Juno. The rest of the week end was quite frustrating. I didn&#39;t get to spend very much alone time with my boyfriend which upsets me quite a bit. Oh well I suppose distance makes the heart grow fonder. Does anyone have a good program for recording videos on a webcam? I&#39;ve tried making video blogs and they all suck hardcore!. So yeah I&#39;m up for suggestions on anything blog wise!</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://musicallytina.blogspot.com/feeds/3270439479682980153/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://musicallytina.blogspot.com/2010/09/back-in-town.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1835078094709473657/posts/default/3270439479682980153'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1835078094709473657/posts/default/3270439479682980153'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://musicallytina.blogspot.com/2010/09/back-in-town.html' title='Back in town'/><author><name>chris_shanay_g</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13569817043815374627</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEM-xvGHFoB7ebczIk4vdrvlgGl_GZx3vBPQC_7NkUz5N9GHX_7QlbOKfdZup9Vsh2g-yGdBWFcxu7hR4GZ2fXyuLX-83Bc2PvmTV0cMUz5e1y54DXCMKstOxgE9MjJ-s/s1600/*'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835078094709473657.post-3666173560710772000</id><published>2010-09-15T00:15:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2010-09-15T00:15:50.357-05:00</updated><title type='text'>I know it&#39;s (not) today</title><content type='html'>Sup guys,&lt;br /&gt;
So I know the title of this post is quite, well pessimistic or odd. But hey, So am I...the odd...not necessarily the pessimistic..&lt;br /&gt;
But yeah I was writing the same stupid paper....I will defeat it (kinda have to its due Thursday).....and decided to jam some Broadway stuff (its like my drug)&lt;br /&gt;
I love Shrek the musical if you get the opportunity check out some links on YouTube I&#39;ll post some when I&quot;m not deathly tired. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkoAo9xfcmQ&quot;&gt;I know it&#39;s today from Shrek the musical&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Anywho there&#39;s this song that Fionna sings called &quot;I Know its Today&quot; AWESOME SONG!&lt;br /&gt;
It made me think of my amazingly awesome boyfriend. I&#39;m supposed to see him soon and so I&#39;m singing that song cept it&#39;s my rendition....I know it&#39;s (not) today. I miss him like a diabetic misses sugar. He makes me all warm and tingly on the inside and I love him for it. Kay that&#39;s enough about him (check out his blog...if you can figure out who he is ^_^) &lt;br /&gt;
Ok to bed I shall go with my dreams in tow.&lt;br /&gt;

I&#39;m Christina, but my friends and ,everyone I know, call me Tina. I&#39;m a college freshman in the WIERDEST city in America, Austin. I just decided to grace the internet with my presence with this blog. I&#39;m not sure what to write it on so if you have any ideas just leave a comment or use the poll! (It was suppose to be a Star Wars pun) so yeah. I&quot;m supposed to be writing a paper...and we see how well that&#39;s coming out. So leave me a comment add me on Facebook and I will soon have a Twiter...though I don&#39;t see the point but I&#39;ll get one. Mkay I&#39;m out!</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://musicallytina.blogspot.com/feeds/5052515546935476749/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://musicallytina.blogspot.com/2010/09/just-geting-started.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1835078094709473657/posts/default/5052515546935476749'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1835078094709473657/posts/default/5052515546935476749'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://musicallytina.blogspot.com/2010/09/just-geting-started.html' title='Just geting started'/><author><name>chris_shanay_g</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13569817043815374627</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEM-xvGHFoB7ebczIk4vdrvlgGl_GZx3vBPQC_7NkUz5N9GHX_7QlbOKfdZup9Vsh2g-yGdBWFcxu7hR4GZ2fXyuLX-83Bc2PvmTV0cMUz5e1y54DXCMKstOxgE9MjJ-s/s1600/*'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
