the importance of MOM and true FRIENDS!!

Hello all, I know I've been away for quite some time now-I've been very busy. I had to register for school...do my financial papers, you know basically get my shyt together (so have to go back), plus work has been keeping me away. Oh, umm I also haven't been myself for a couple of days...like a week or so due to some nasty horrible flu :( To tell you the truth, I thought that was the end for me that's how sick I was, I didn't go to work that whole entire week nor even attend the events I was supposed to volunteer at. That's how sick I was, I was in bed all day and everyday. BUT the only person that really made me feel better of course besides GOD was my mother-dad is away back home. But mom of course is always there when in need even when not in need she knows it :) Seriously without GOD spiritually and mom who made sure I put something in my belly (cause a bad cold takes away your appetite completely) and I was feeling weak and tired easily. So mom took care of me. She's a FUCKING ANGEL and I thank GOD for having the best mom ever!!!! So for the ppl that thinks "there's a time in your life you need to grow up and take care of yourself and be independent, you don't need mom anymore" and I'd say to them "Just shut it up!! wonder what kind of mom raised you that you don't think you'll never need her?"" then I would roll my eyes* Yes there are points in our lives we need to be independent and take care of ourselves but the feeling of knowing and having that wonderful mom-her touch (when she touches my neck and forehead to see if I have the fever), her soothing words (asking how I'm feeling every couple of mins. And telling me I will be well soon and not to worry. And everytime I thanked her shereplies "don't thank me, it"s my job"). Her support (always made sure I eat at least soup and take my meds) oh did I mentioned she's the fucking best? Well she's a fucking ANGEL!!!! ::::sippin' on some theraflu::::: Ok....I may not say it well and I don't care right now, but I'm sure you've heard of "When you're in need or sick that's when you can really tell for sure who your true friends are?" well I did came to that conclusion or "That's when you know for sure who really gives a shyt about you (the ppl in your life) whoever" guess what? I think GOD was trying to make me see something....I know you may think "what is she talking about?" But read carefully please and it's the fucking truth!!!! My best friend, val was there for me throughout my entire sickness, by calling me every couple of hours each day, she even came to my house to give me some med she thought might be good to take. Now there's a few peeps I'm cool with at work (well won't be anymore), did they even texted me to ask how I was feeling? NO FUCKING WAY!!! Guess what? Not even my own manager LOL....yup I'm serious, but let's leave it at that. Now he just texted me asking me "hey plo, you feeling better to work today?" Come on guys what should I replied back? Should I text back telling him "to go fuck his fat self"? Or to just "fuck you fat fuck?" Or just ignore it? Still debating Mmmm!!! Oh something else, this is how much I'm loved by plenty you guys-I was supposed to be at SOBS to do some volunteering work, ok I emailed the lady who's in charge and the person I was supposed to work with at 3 fucking something in the morning and texted them, ok I got a reply from the person I was supposed to work with but not the lady who's in charge of the local outreached-Mmmm!! Wonder why! Maybe she was upset cause I could not make it, or whatever the reason is, but whatever it is my health comes first-I'm sorry I was hack hack hack and feeling weak, sick all over and all I could do is stay in bed rather than go out in this cold and take the freaking public tranportation...sorry I couldn't go out to make myself worst, oh that event was supposed to be more important than my own fucking health, I didn't know it worked like that smhhh!!!But my point is I now came to a realization and have a true understanding of a good friendship, and the the appreciation of the great ppl I have in my life. THANK YOU GOD AGAIN AND MOM!! Link

How annoying-ughhh!!

Ok this is something I had to share with you all which I'm sure some of you (New Yorkers) already experienced and know how it can be on the trains of NYC. And maybe some who doesn't have to do the NYC transit but sure deal with public transportation period. I've been taking public transportation for a long time and believe me I know all about the DOS and the DON'TS, I've been on the train from early to mid day, and throughout the night (basically that's how I go about). I love taking the trains, the transfering from one spot to the other, go up and down, uptown, downtown, midtwon, eastside, west side, parkside, parkview and so on-good experience-believe me lol. But, just like I'm a subway rider and love the NYC public transportation is the same way I have alot of pet peeves about it, and sometimes just wish I was the only one who takes the subway.

Some of the other passengers I ride with on the train really thinks it's their private world, and some thinks it's their livingroom or their backyard, or may think they're at the park.

ATTN: and this goes out especially to the black folks-no self-respect, no good behavior with themselves and their kids.

I don't like it when a group of young girls gets so loud on the train that the whole car can hear them-who cares about you and your boyfriend having sex?

No one cares about you smacking that girl from your class who gave you the dirty look!

No one cares about where you're going friday night!

No one cares about the type of labels you wear-ughhh so ghetto!!

****NO ONE NEEDS TO KNOW WHAT KIND/TYPE OF MUSIC YOU'RE LISTENING TO***COME ON PLEASE, TURN THAT VOLUME DOWN-NOT THAT WE CARE IF YOU GO DEAF BUT I AM TRYING TO READ THE NEWSPAPER, OR A BOOK, EVEN WANT TO LISTEN TO MY OWN MUSIC ON MY IPOD..BELIEVE I DON'T CARE!!

I had a long day at work or at school and sometimes both, I am tired and need to rest my legs, do I care if you have ten kids with you? NO!

I don't hate kids or anything like that but when you see a young female with a stroller and two more kids on the side, and it's obvious she wasn't ready to have these kids. Especially if the kids have no manners, and doesn't know how to behave that's when my mean side takes place and just let her stand with her lil bastards-yeah yeah I'm mean but I'm sure you understand where I'm coming from and what I mean by that. I'm sorry I've had a long day WORKING OR WAS AT SCHOOL, DOING SOMETHING WITH MY LIFE AND THESE YOUNG ONES ON THE OTHER HAND RATHER SPREAD THEIR LEGS AND HAVE BABIES LIKE THEY'RE READY AND THE ECONOMY IS GREAT!! NO YOU CAN NOT HAVE MY SEAT AND NO YOU CAN NOT SQUEEZE IN AND MAKE ME FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE!!

I pay my fare so why should I be uncomfortable for you with 10 kids?

What I also hate is when bums come on the train and begs for money meanwhile there are help out there-my taxes and other New Yorkers taxes pay for your shelter and your well being, so why not use it?

I know I can be judgemnetal but this is the truth!

You're an American, you were born and raised in the US and I'm sure they have more help for them, alot of apportunities for them-hello it's your country why not take advantage?

But they rather be lazy and depend on the government and abuse it and don't appreciate the opportunities. They rather sit and blame the "white men and the government for their lazy asses.

My taxes, my working hard pays for your welfare and the places that you need to go to get some help..please do that!

I don't hate anyone nor have anything against anybody but when it comes to trying to use me and don't see that I'm trying and even take it into consideration and take take and take that's when I say FU!!

Don't you hate when you're waiting for the train, especially during rush hour, the train be packed and there's more people coming in....all of a sudden the train gets right in front of you that's when people becomes savages? Their savegeness comes out-LOL to that.

I hate being pushed and rushed..I let them know it't not that serious lol..for real it really isn't.

oh wait wait..they get inside the train all in your way and looking for the best seats lol!

like come on get out of my way so I can seat.

Like I said this isn't to be mean or a bytch but just annoying to me and to others.

I know I may offend some people but this is the truth-sorry!

So you tell me what you think and how you deal with it when you get on the train/next time you get on the train.

Thanks!

Plane crash into Hudson River-thanks to pilot!

....So I just woke up feeling better...

This morning I had to wake up super early to go to the airport with dad (going to visit family and friends back home). worked all day yesterday and got home late. ..and to make it worst I have a motion sickness problem (so you can imagine the ride to the airport-ughh!). I stayed at the airport 'till his flight took off because it started snowing bad and we expected the weather to get worst, just in case his flight got (wasn't sure but waited anyway to see the "final boarding" for his destination.

Came home got something to eat..and took a nap.....

Woke up 4:39pm ...

........a plane crashed? huh? where? how? hope it's not a terrorist attacked again! not now...not again and especially not in this weather......

What we know is, a US Airways jet made an emergency landing into the Hudson River on this frigid afternoon.

The US Airways-flight 1549, with 155 people on board; three flight attendants and two pilots, left LaGuardia and was heading to Charlotte, NC. The cause for this as pilot reported: a "double bird strike" less than a minute after taking off. That's when he felt like he had to make that pluged into the Hudson. Both engines were knocked out by a flock of geese, the pilot wanted to turned back to LGA airport but it was too late-he made a safe landing to the Hudson near 48th instead that way it would be easier and safer for the passnegers on board.

Some people suffered minor bruises and scrapes, and minor hypothermia-it could have been worst.

God forbids that plane could've worst-it could've landed anywhere on the streets on NYC (times square) GOD knows...but thanks to the pilot such thing didn't happened.

One thing I can say about this almost-tragic incident is: I am glad everyone is ok and are safe-thanks to the pilot for making that safe landing.

Thank you GOD for another year!

AWWWW I HAD TO LOL

AT THE "THE L WORD" PARTY IN PHILLY

NO COMMENTS LOL

MY FIRST VOLUNTEERING TABLE AT GRAMERCY

MY SURPRISED BIRTHDAY MY EX-BEST FRIEND HAD FOR ME :)-MISSED THOSE DAYS! AT THIS CLUB IN PHILLY

ME IN TX LAST YEAR AROUND THIS TIME

Hello everyone, Welcome again to my spot!

First I would like to wish everyone a HAPPY NEW YEAR!! and hope you all had a great '08 and hope you get to see many more in '09 and so on.

I know some of my good friends and my best friend heard it before and knows it and some of my other people I associate already heard me wishing them a great new year (blah blah). But I really would like to take the time out to thank and let people in my life know how much I appreciate them for being who they are-the best, the good, not so good, assholes (that's what makes you who you are), and the crazy ones (love you too) lol.

Looking back in '08, it was a very good year for me and I can honestly say I've come encounters with so many different types of individuals that I want to stay friends with and some I don't want in my life at all.

I've gone places that I've never been before and would like to visit again next year and maybe live in in two years (maybe that'll be my new years resolution for 2010) ::shrugs::

and some places I don't want to go back and waste my money again. But 2008 was a better than 2007-that I can say.

I've got hurt (feelings) by someone whom I truly loved and cared for, but hey that's life, regardless of anything if someone choses to hurt you no matter how deep is your love for them they will do it (no excuses!)

But I am over it..I am single and loving it lol..seriously it's totally fine ::smiles: I know GOD has a reason for whatever and why certain things happened the way they did.

I am greatful for whatever GOD has blessed me with ...

I am GRATEFUL for:

*good health (family)

*great ppl in my life

*full of self-love

*strong and smart

*my jobs

*and just every little thing else

I plan on leaving alot of old, bad habits and bad apples behind, some are personal that I can't share with you. But some are just simple little things that I need to get rid of and move on.

I plan on taking life more seriously and continue to live it to the fullest.

I've come to realized my priorities (be there for family, school, work, me and taking care of me more) is more important than anything else in this world.

I plan on being there for my friends more and try to come to an understanding that it's not and doesn't have to be all about ME all the damn times!

I plan on better my life, as in stay focused when in school and be more focused to my inner self/being, and to really understand who I am.

Continue to be the loving, sensitive individual that I am and not let the unsensitive assholes/anyone tell me otherwise.

I plan on continuing to give and share my love (to the ones that are worth it).

Ok now that you see what I'm planing on doing and you can understanding it or not that's up to you!

ohhhhh...before I put this down ,whoever is reading my page and feel like it's about them which after all if you feel some type of way-I guess it's you then ::smiles::

.....I plan on LEAVING/IGNORING THE BAD APPLES behind (who eats or would even pick up a bad apple off the ground anyway?) NOT ME! ok ok..I did but don't want to and trying not to for '09.

So I plan on deleting alot of "friends from '08 (the ones that's never there for me, the lames and the flakes, the ones that promised shyt but can't do shyt about it and always have this "I don't give a shyt attitude)..life is not about "oh that's not my business and why should I care". Or "Why should I care when that's the type of person that I am? I can't help it") I need more positive, self oriented individuals in my life. I am tired of the fakes ones and tired of someone I considered real but was dead wrong about.

GOD knows how much we all need positive thinkers and individuals in our lives. I know I do.

I have alot of goals that much be achived this year, better yeat before my birthday (April).

I plan on getting my license (grandma needs to be a lil faster lol)

I want to do my internship this fall.

I want this and I want that....::screaming::

I WANT IT ALL LOL!!

ok I should stop.....

oh but wait.....I can say I need to lose like Mmm!! ::looking in the mirror: 15lbs.

I can toned up a bit.

I can slow down on the partying and the drinking (well maybe to that one).

I plan on using my money wisely-recession hello lol

I can slow down on the talking (talk too much sometimes lol)..seriously I can slow down...

I would like to thank you all for being a part in my journey (life) and for being who you are....

and have a great new year..TTYL!!

at least someone has the courage to do something!

I swear when I seen that I laughed so hard I almost peed on me lol, too funny.

Finally here we got someone who has a gut and the courage to do something to this man they call "the president of the United States Of America" lol, I swear something like that can only happen else where-can never happen in the US.

BAGHDAD (Dec. 14) - On an Iraq trip shrouded in secrecy and marred by dissent, President George W. Bush on Sunday hailed progress in the war that defines his presidency and got a size-10 reminder of his unpopularity when a man hurled two shoes at him during a news conference. An Iraqi journalist threw two shoes at President Bush during a news conference Sunday with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. The president was not hurt in the incident. (Dec. 14) "This is a farewell kiss, you dog!" shouted the protester in Arabic, later identified as Muntadar al-Zeidi, a correspondent for Al-Baghdadia television, an Iraqi-owned station based in Cairo, Egypt. Bush ducked both shoes as they whizzed past his head and landed with a thud against the wall behind him. "It was a size 10," Bush joked later. The U.S. president visited the Iraqi capital just 37 days before he hands the war off to his successor, Barack Obama, who has pledged to end it. The president wanted to highlight a drop in violence in a nation still riven by ethnic strife and to celebrate a recent U.S.-Iraq security agreement, which calls for U.S. troops to withdraw from Iraq by the end of 2011. "The war is not over," Bush said, adding that "it is decisively on it's way to being won." In many ways, the unannounced trip was a victory lap without a clear victory. Nearly 150,000 U.S. troops remain in Iraq fighting a war that is intensely disliked across the globe. More than 4,209 members of the U.S. military have died in the conflict, which has cost U.S. taxpayers $576 billion since it began five years and nine months ago. Link

the yes..and the not so yes for a holiday event..

Ok so we know it's the holidays right? But are you ready for it? I know I am....

We all are going to be invited to parties either at work, friends or families.

You're all excited about attending, got the perfect gift for the right person.

You know exactly what you're going to wear for the event.

You know the exact time, date, and place. you even request the next day off from work or make sure you'll be off the next day in case you get carried away with the martini from that party (hungover=near death). But what if for some reason you lost the invitation card, or you forgot the add, even can't find the perfect gift?..there are things that can prevent us from making a good impression on our friends, families, or in a professional environment (work, social clubs, etc.)..and this is where I will tell you how to at least try to make a good impression on yourself.............after all certain things can be prevented if you don't allow them to!

*Save the invitation cared (whether you're planing on going or not)-you never know.

*Call the person to let them know you'll be able to make it.

*Still call them even if you're unable to attend (it's just appropriate to do so).

*Show up on time .

*If you're going to be late , make sure you call in advance to inform you're going to be late.

*Don't go empty-handed. Bring something with you (a gift: a bottle of wine, cake, food but all depends on the event and where, even a card is a good look).

*Behave yourself at the event. Don't get drunk, even tipsy.

*Have fun but don't be a worm.

*Don't be the only one leaving the event last!

Now I think this is it, if for any reason you think I'm missing a couple of things or need to add a few more things comment and let me know-I'd appreciate all the feedbacks I can get! Link
