Not Home For The Holidays

2009-12-24T07:39:00.000-08:00

Happy Christmas Eve! Normally I am one to be really excited about christmas! Especially being from NY. Its kinda hard not to get swooped up in the hustle and bustle of the holiday season. Well this year I am stuck in Atlanta for the holidays, so im afraid its no yellow snow, no over priced toys, no recycled gifts,no million dollar billboard advertisements, no showing off of the christmas items the day after, no big cleanup, and no house hopping in search of more gifts ! But I will have the begging salvation army santa's!

Sade Returns!

2009-12-21T18:35:00.000-08:00

So today as i was reading the blogs of the people i follow
(yes i really read them) & i noticed on andenew's blog it was mentioned that sade was in fact making a comeback ! GOODNESS ME!I thought it was pure rumor and speculation! That was until I clicked the lil red play button ,and lo and behold, my speakers were instantly filled with the sweet serenade of sade's voice as she belted out her latest hit.

It was everything I could have hoped for in a comeback for such a well respected and well loved artist! i have been falling asleep to the sultry sounds of sade(cherish the day,pearls,enigma,by your side,king of sorrow, no ordinary love, to name a few )since i was about 3,im now 24 so u can imagine my unmasked excitement as i readily listened to the newest installment. I for one will be first in line to get my cd in 2010! Check it out

Now if you felt the trailer was awesome then u have no idea how great the film actually was! I mean after initially getting over the shock of having to be engaged in a 3 hour movie,I finally sucked it up, went home, sat down, and downloaded it. Now I know how that sounds , but the truth of the matter is I am so sick of spending my hard earned money to go watch movies in a theater ,just to be disappointed by a trailer that looked so appealing. So yes this time I played it safe!

This was the hit movie that people will be talking about for several years to come.Never had i experienced a movie that was satisfying on every level. this was a perfect adaptation of what the native Americans had endured a few generations ago. only this time, they kicked butt & won! I'm sure that this flick will strike a cord with them and any third world country that has been either oppressed and conquered in one form or another. the texture and the animation was awesome. Facial expressions and movement coinciding with the environment was just perfect, very believable. I love the character development,especially the main characters! The storyline was similar to "Dancing with Wolves" but the acting and animation were Avatar awesome

Now Reading between the lines ->

One day we will realize that it is not a good idea for all mankind to be located on one planet, where one solar flare,can wipe us all out in a large explosion in the sun's atmosphere that can release heated plasma at tens of millions of kelvins and accelerating electrons ,protons,and heavier ions at the earth. I do not want to be in that fire storm nor do want my children or grandchildren to face to face that threat either! That is why i think that some of us need to get off this rock ,to keep our species going even if that does happen! We have to plan beyond the next five minutes,five days,five months,five years,or five centries! Until we learn to do that we are in deep crap ,being stuck on this one world. CLICK LINK BELOW FOR MORE

We do not know if we will find other species out in the void of space in another world,but I & many people are sure that we do not want to commit genocide on them because their planet has something on it that we want or can use! Even if they are a lower life form! We have no idea of what equilibrium &/senergy is, we have not taken time to learn to live with the other species here on earth.

We still only see them as resources to be used up! We have to find a balance in using them. NOT using our resources up until they are gone,or will find one day that some substance in a resource will be needed to save us from a future threat,but due to overuse it is now gone! That my friends will be the end of us all. & A VERY SAD TRAGEDY!

How do u feel ?Let me know your and feelings on this sensitive issue.

Thoughts of a Georgian

2009-12-06T12:33:00.000-08:00

ok so down here in georgia my friends have been harping on me for using social networking sites , i.e. twitter,blogger ,downelink ,myspace. they say they dont see the sense in those kinds of sites.when u can just hang out with a person for real and know the real them .now i totally agree with them but blogging is totally different

I feel that it is extremely hard to fake your persona and your thoughts. there are tons of benefits of online social networks that i personally adore but of course other just cross the line of intrusion like facebook! uggh ! NOW I CAN UNDERSTAND THEIR FRUSTRATION WITH THAT SITE!.sarah

they dont care to understand the need to dictate every aspect of your life to people who probably does not even care. hell for all my mableton peeps care their home is their myspace! their culture is their blog ,and their hello is their email. every time i come down south i am always reminded of the simple things in life that normally go unnoticed in fast paced nyc. it also enables me to be around real down to earth people who actually care about your well being and not the popularity they can gain from u hanging out with them,boy genius

they are not worried about what house your in or whats the next party u will be hosting. my peeps are satisfied with just a phone call letting them know u have gotten home safely . alot of the traits of my down south friends will always stick with me because down here they are not afraid to be human. b

Down here in georgia those types of things are not needed because down here we hang! they dont have to resort to social networking sites to get to know people because down here they meet and greet. they invite people to their homes rather then out their homes. they dont mind giving a helping hand or lending a shoulder when needed. they surely dont mind giving a cup of sugar!. who needs social networking sites when u have friends like this blue

Devry Dilemma

2009-12-06T11:44:00.000-08:00

so im currently working on getting into devry university so that i can acquire my associate degree in health information and technology. Yeah yeah I know, just a cover career that enables me to surf the net all day , but so what this is my story !
never the less I started the long application process, fafsa .edu ,devry's application fee ,the works . Then comes the moment i dreaded. Devry calls me in for a placement test. *the horror*! Instantly panicking I try to remember every thing ive ever learned or didnt, in highschoool. Now although I did exceptionally well in highschool I wont say I had the best grades in math. But reading comprehension and any kind of writing I have always excelled at , I guess thats why my teachers ignored my lack of knowledge in certain areas of math. I just could not get it no matter how hard I tried I have always need extra tutoring, or lessons to keep my math up.

so imagine my non shock when I take the placement test for devry and score very high in reading,only to score a measly 29 in math (passin is 38). .So now on this very cold ,snowy early morning in georgia im headed to devry to have a math review. God just when u thought u have jumped the having to do math train it always stops right in your station!

So me and the besty embark on this early morning journey from kennesaw georgia to alpharetta which is about a 45 minute ride. On the way there we stop for breakfast , & hit the highway with trey songs blasting in the speakers. Not even 15 minutes later we are forced to pulled over to the side of the road because of a stubborn nissan altima.!

I could not have asked for a more perfect timing ! Although stoked the dilemma bought me more time to study, as I sat waiting for AAA and typing my blog ,I realize that no matter what I do, or where I go , no matter how I add it or subtract ,it math will always be there . It will always be there as a reminder that I have unfinished business to attend to , and until I handle that buisiness math will just keep rearing its ugly lil head and keep pulling into my station

chase has a playmate

2009-12-04T12:26:00.000-08:00

so i am so sick and tired of chase (my shihtzu) humping my leg ! uggh! ok so i get that he's getting older, he just recently turned 1 , but does that give him the right to molest me? i didnt think so
therefore i opted not to get him neutered but instead get him a playmate. since i didn't have the time and energy to adopt a dog from a shelter, i turned to the next best thing.. craigslist!! now i know that may sound weird , but it was on this thanksgiving day that i logged into cragslist and actually found what i was looking for !. lo and behold there was an ad that read " sweet bichon frise needs a good home". so i happily clicked the link . equipped with a phone number , i started the process of getting my chase a playmate .

i dialed the phone number and got the voicemail, although i was dissapointed i went ahead and left a very detailed message. to my great suprise i woke up the next morning and there was a voicemail from katrina,

( a sweet christian women) informing me that she had not found a home yet for "kiki" . we continued to talk, i told her about chase having adhd, she told me kiki had the same issue , was very hyper, and loving. we also spoke about kiki belonging to her son whom she was not allowing to have the dog anymore because of his slipping grades in school. katrina told me that although her son was over kiki ,she did not want us to meet at her house to do the exchange because she feared he would become reattached. Thus deciding to meet me at a nearby super walmart. i totally understanding what its like to love a dog so i agreed. katrina asked me to give her a half and hour because kiki was with a friend , in another part of town.

a half hour later excited that i achieved my goal i readily got dress , dragging my homegirl ray, and the rest of my thanksgiving day party with me to pick up the new addition of my family=}

so we arrived at the austell rd super walmart around 1ish , after clumsily missing an exit and a turn ,but finally we made it . i finally met katrina!! she was so sweet! really sweet lady from alabama she is. and i was sooo stoked that the friend kiki was with appeared to also be a lesbian women ! that sat great with me !

so we finally got kiki, and after a teary goodbye with her previous owners, we were on the road with our new dog and chase..

of course i had to stop and get her a lulu dress, and a new leash. before bringing her home. she has to match chase's fly! now she is styling!

after her oatmeal bath, some exercise ,and some breath mints, her and chase are stuck together like glue! u would think that they knew each other forever!

im so happy chase finally gets to to take his horny days out on somebody else ! and by the way.. i renamed her paramore =}
