SONGS that stay stuck in my head-

1. Ice Cream Paint Job - Dorrough
2. Turn My Swag On - Soulja Boy
3. I Know You Want Me - Pitbull
4. Man of The Year - Drake feat. Lil' Wayne
5. Come Over - Estelle

why are these songs so catchy?

You live and learn.

Throughout my 22 years of living there are lot of things I've learned to live by. I have a lot more to learn and I'm thoughtfully embracing it all as it comes my way.

First and foremost, never let a friend borrow money with the expectations of getting it back. Always lend money and don't expect it back. After all, if your friend is in need of money and you have the funds to do them a favor then leave it at that. Money and friends don't mix-- that is why you give, don't expect it back and you won't be put in a sticky situation.

Don't vacation with friends who don't have the funds to vacate. I've traveled with a LOT of different friends-- close ones and mere acquaintances. When vacationing you have to purchase a plan ticket, book the hotel and reserve a rental car if needed. It's usually easiest if one person does all of the planning and books everything. I'm usually appointed this position because I like to plan trips! Although, when friends want to pay you back later as oppose to before the trip things get a little frustrating. It's like... if you're planning to drive to Canada (or where ever) you would put gas in before you went right? Because chances are you aren't going to make it on an empty gas tank. Same concept with traveling-- pay up before you head out.

Amber Rose-

I don't care what anybody says this beezy is bangin'! SHE A BAD BAD BISH. I absolutely LOVE her style and the way she can pull of ANYTHING-- even the fade! HOW many girls can pull of a bleach blonde fade and still rock it? Close to none. Her style is sofa king fierce! My new woman crush! And I want those red American Apparel leggings-- BAD. LOL

City of Thieves - By: David Benioff

SUCH A GOOD BOOK! This author is able to blend the struggles of World War II along with humor creating an absolute thrilling read. I found myself so engaged in the book I couldn't put it down. The book is witty, devestating and funny all at the same time. His ability to describe everything with detail made me feel as if I were actually there during that time period. I can't begin to describe how much I enjoyed this book. I'll probably end up reading it about 50 more times. READ IT!

Overjoyed

If you've ever been in a position where you feel like God's not listening- he is. I'm only human and I get discouraged, I feel like giving up but I don't because I know he has a plan for me. When one door closes another one opens. God gives and takes away! I don't think there are enough words to express the amount of love and joy that I'm feeling right now at this very second. I've been through some DIFFICULT situations in my short 22 years of living and I believe you can't enjoy the good without the bad. And when I say I'm in love I'm only falling more and more in love with the man upstairs. I know I'm rambling but the next time I'm going through tough times I can just look back and remember why I've been holding on for so long.

I've said this time and time again but God has blessed me with THE BEST FRIENDS EVER. I don't know where I'd be without them.

I'm getting closer to my dreams.
