I love Kelis and I love her new song Bossy.
I recently decided that I am gonna get a tattoo. I have no clue what it will be, but i think i want it to be a mixture of text and drawing. I mentioned Kelis because I was watching her video today "Bossy" and this girl has the "baddest" tattoo, I love it.
I don't think my tat will be as long as hers....nah. "but it sweet". Anyhow I am trying to figure out what to get so anyone who reads this can leave me ideas.
[Adrian, since I know that you are the only person who reads my lame ass blog and is nice enough to leave comments (thanks)please don't suggest that I get a tattoo of your name across my boobs, think about summin good].

Bullshit Movies
Romance is a very weird thing. I have this theory, that even though guys and girls are different as it relates to relationships, if they are both inlove they are the same. Let me explain. Women are very affectionate, typically moreso than men. We like the grand guestures, we like the surprises(good ones), we like the mushy stuff: kisses on the forehead, flowers, love letters(yes you heard correct), the nice dinner all that. But men most times are not like that at all, they dont like to talk to us on the phone for long and dont understand why we like it. They dont really like the mushy stuff and are not as emotional as we are.
However, when he falls in love with you, he changes somewhat. He cares about what you think and tries his best to make you happy. When you are sad it pains him, because he wants you to be happy. He makes sure that you are constantly reminded that he cares about you. He reminds you not to make sure you are not miserable and emotional, but because he wants to, he does it without thinking. He makes grand guestures and constantly surprises you and most of all he always want to hear your voice and be with you, because those moments make him just as happy as it makes his girlfriend. He is willing to make sacrifices for you because of the love you share, small sacrifices and big ones. He will not watch the game tonight because he hasnt seen you in a while and needs to spend time with you. He will stay up late and make sure you get home safely, he will even go to a party with you even though he is a little tired. He hears what you have to say and really listens. So he knows when you disappointed, when you sad, when you happy.
If he doesnot really care about you then he cares not about how you feel, and when you are unhappy he doesnot really know that you are. Thats because he doesnt care about you and therefore cannot detect your unhappiness or sadness and doesnt care to. He is detached, individualistic and self absorbed. He makes no sacrifices however little they are. If he is just passing time with you, he sweats the small stuff, there is an argument about the silliest thing.
It is pretty obvious when a guy doesnot care about you, at least to me it is. Because of what he does and how he does it, in short: his actions. My friends and I were discussing this recently. Even if he is a good liar, he cant fool you about love, he just cant. So if you with a guy and he shows these tendencies then move on.
On the cynical side: I was watching a movie the other day about a couple inlove and i thought to myself that alot of times people mistake, what they see in the movies as what really happens in real life, and therefore very disappointed when it doesnt happen. Not many guys are willing to go the extra mile for a girl, not many actually care further than the fact that they wanna have sex with that person.
Have I ever been inlove, yeah i think so.

Whatdafxsup
Today I was almost brought to tears, while I was watching C-Span, when the Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations was taking to the Unites States Security Council.
I was almost brought to tears because of what this gentleman was saying and how in humane the whole Lebanese crisis/atrocity is. He spoke of the situation as just an issue, he didnt make reference to the fate of civilians, at most he reiterated that the situation in Lebanon will not cease unless they destroy the terrorist within the country.
But guess what smarts: Hezbollah is not Lebanon! Hezbollah is a small fraction of the population. So is it that civilians must die so that Israel can get rid of Hezbollah?
Is it that no country has the cojones to say that this is an outrage. I think that Israel is on this war path because they are not capable of finding the individuals they are looking for, they are bullies who are not smart enough to find what they are looking for, so they take the easy way out, which is the most disgusting part of this whole scenario- killing children and their parents. In short innocents.
If this were the opposite and Iran bombed Israel, everyone as we all know would come to the fore and call it an outrage of massive proportions. This is definitely what would happen as dictated by historical experiences : Major case in point being the Palestinian "situtaion".
Ironically enough the US who is always poking its nose in other people's affair is mum about the whole situation as is expected as they always back Israel no matter what.
Is Lebanon being punished to make an example of? Is Bush not making any statements because the Lebanese situation is taking some attention away from the Iraqi situation?
When will all the killings end and who will have the balls to say somthings? When will this country get a break? When will other countries stop using this country as their battle ground to fight their wars that has nothing to do with Lebanond itself.
What the fuck is going on? Has Bush set a trend for invading sovereing nations. Does this mean that North Korea, if they feel like it, can bomb any country, even America?
Where is the love for people. Why the fuck does one country feels that it has the right to destroy another. Why the fuck does one man feel he has the right to kill another man. Israel is taking this collateral damage thing too far.
Lets address fairness. Lets look at an eye for an eye. If Hezbollah killed 5 Israeli should Israel have the right to kill thousands of innocents? So if Syria design to attack Israel in defence of Lebanon (fat chance), but hypothetically speaking, if Syria attacks Israel in defence of Lebanon calling it a terrorist act, should anyone step in?

TIME
Time waits for no man.
Carpe Diem Bitches. Sieze the day or live in perpetual regret.
Opportunties sometimes seem few, but make every attempt to get the most of them when they come along.
Work hard at what you want...sounds cliche, well it actually is cliche but apparently very truthful. When will you get what you want or how long it takes is another issue. And at least if you know you worked hard, there will be little room for regret.

Aufwiedersehen
Girls love romance. We like the grand guestures. We like when guys make us feel really special, not that we dont know we are, but just so we are reminded that you think so. We like the fairy tale ending, even if it is just once. A memory that we will have for the rest of our lives.
We are not that difficult to figure out. We like when thought is put into something. So if you give us a dozen roses or one it really doesnt matter, what we love is the thought and care that went into it. The thing that makes giving a single rose great/romantic and all those synonyms is that there was thought put into to it, it wasnt random or fake.
Guys, saying that you care about someone is one thing, but showing that you care about someone is even more important. Saying "i like you" or "baby i love you" dont mean a damn if you dont show it especially when it means the most.
Sometimes we meet a guy and he seems so good on paper, but when you go out with him there is no chemistry. Or you talk to someone and sometimes they can be extremely intelligent and creative and other times he is just blah.
I have been single of "recent" and I am still trying figure out whats going on. The guy "my x" is a pretty nice guy, we broke up but we stayed friends. The breakup wasnt a bad one, we had to do it because of the distance (he migrated) not because I didnt love him.
Now being single, I am now of the opinion that I wont try anymore to show a guy who I am and what I am about. My impressions of guys at this point are not favourable. So whatever guy wants to get with me and get to know me, will have to make the extra leap. I no longer accept words, I accept action.

Wassup, Wassup
I have been a little delinquent and I havent been adding to my blog alot. Nothing much is new. Many of my friends are here from abroad, so I am happy about that, I hang out with them alot now, and its fun, I missed them alot. I have a handful of real friends and they cant be replicated. They are good people and they care about me alot and vice versa. These people are the friends that I will have forever.
I have also been glued to the T.V watching world cup games for the last couple of weeks. It has been fun and I am very sorry that my team, the best team in the world-yes you know who I am referring to--Argentina of course didnt make it to the finals.
And on another note, I am still in debt, and have a ton of bills in pay in the coming months. Yeah, tuition payments sucks. I wonder though, would it be so bad if I just decide not to go back. Sure it would mean I wasted a year, but I have gain some experience. I am not used to not being able to pay for what I want, i now have to rationalise and prioritise and budget. Yeah Budget-its new to me. Budgeting means I cant get a new laptop and a cant get a Palm Treo (which i desperately want). Budgeting for me in this case means that even though I am budgeting I am still motherfuckin broke. So in other words, I am budgeting money that I dont have, I am budgeting how to remain broke.

Confrontation
I am not one to confront people. It is just not something that I can do and this is fundamentally as a result of 2 reasons. One, I always think that i can just walk away and two, I generally think that if I saw something then people will think that I am miserable and it may even cause unnecessary drama.
As a result of me being this way, I have a friend that thinks that I make people walk over me, that I am a pushover and should just say what I want, even if it will hurt someone's feelings. Sometimes I will notice things about other people's personality that I don't appreciate, but rather than say to them that I dont like it, I saw it to my friends, is that a bad thing? I dont think it necessarily is. But perhaps my friends get a little annoyed that I tell them rather than confront the person.
Today I had a problem with a decision that someone I am associated with made, that affects me. I think that his decision was not a good one and that I should have been consulted before steps were taken. Before I let the person know, that I was against the decision, i thought about it carefully and send a carefully worded e-mail, to avoid stepping on any toes. Am I a wuss, or is it that I consider other people's feelings, or just dont want to make life more difficult by confronting individuals?
What would you do? When is it the right time, to confront someone about something?

Sucker
I am have such a weak heart for street children. Ok you guys have heard me in a recent entry that I am brookee right. Today I went to the supermarket to get some coconut water. On my way out this little boy asked me for some money to buy summin to drink. Ok I only had like $100 on me, actually I think thats all the cash I had (where the hell is all my money) except for credit cards and stuff (which is technically not my money). But I thought $100 was too much, $50 is good. But what could I do, ask the little begging boy for change :). So I gave up my last $100.
On another note, for the last couple of days I have felt a little bad a bout a relationship I have with someone that seem to have gone sour. But I wrote him an e-mail and told him how I felt and I feel much better, I am over it now. The ball is now in his court he can decide what he wants to do, call me, e-mail me or ignore me.
Until next time

Tears
Apparently I am a sucker for love stories. Last night I couldn't sleep so I started to watch Starz or Cinemax one of those channels. And suprisingly there was no soft porn that late in the night :). "Cinemax stepping up". Anyhow, the movie I watched was City of Angels, and for those of you who haven't heard of it, it is a 90s movie starring Nicholas Cage and Meg Ryan.It is supposed to be about an Angel who falls in love with a human and gives up his immortality to be with her. After he did this grand gesture, she dies. He was only able to spend one night with her, one lousy night.
It was a sad movie, I have watched this movie before, but apparently this was the only time I watched it alone, and ofcourse I cried. Not loud screaming noises, but tears ran down my cheek while I watched the ending, sniffling and all. I always seem to cry at the ending of love stories when I am watching it by myself. Why is that?
The concept of the movie was sad, it really was. And for the guys who read this, its not because I am a girl (and girls are emotional, according to males) why I think so. Imagine: You find someone that you love deeply, that person completes you (yes I know it is very cliche). But seriously, when you with this person you are very happy, you think about this person all the time, this is the only person you can imagine spending the rest of your life with. And as soon as you are able to be with this person.....They die.
What the hell.....? this must be the worst thing ever, a cruel joke. Its like you taunting a dog with a piece of meat but wont give it them (simply cruel).
So that is why I cried. Everyone deserves to be happy and if you found your soulmate and then they die, is it ok, because and least you got to find out what love is and you felt a level of happiness you have never had before, making the affair (even if it lasted only a day) worthwhile?

Sunday Bloody Sunday
Today I was as usual at school from 8:30 am to 3:30 pm, we got let off earlier because the lecturer was feeling generous. It wasn't a bad class all in all and the lecturer (Financial Management) rambled on sometimes but for the most part seem confident in delivery and her knowledge of the subject area. So though it got boring at times which forced me to watch the football match (Holland against Serbia and Montenegro) on my laptop, Yes forced me to watch the game.
I was also able to talk quickly to a couple friend online who i havent spoken to in awhile. This may seem like I am a slacker and do no work in my classes, but this is hardly the case-have you heard of multi-tasking :).
Anyhow all in all the day was good, had a few bad conversations, but I'm over it.
Later in the evening I hung out with a bunch of my friends and we played Kalooki (not sure if it is spelt right). Kalooki is a card game and for those of you who don't know what it is..google it:).
I had alot of laughs, it reminded me why they are my friends and why other people are just acquaintances. Lets see, with all the bad things or mishaps and disappointments of the day all it all it was pretty good, I won't elaborate on it but it was good. I have some business documents to finish later and then thats it for the night.

Sunflower
Ah Sunflower
By William Blake
Ah Sunflower, weary of time,
Who countest the steps of the sun;
Seeking after that sweet golden clime
Where the traveller's journey is done;
Where the youth pined away with desire,
And the pale virgin shrouded in snow,
Arise from their graves, and aspire
Where my Sunflower wishes to go!
The Bitch called REALITY
Sometimes its nice to be positive and hope for the best. It is also nice to think that things that seem unrealistic may actually happen (this is called a fantasy).
The past week I have come to realize that if things seem hopeless, or unlikely given the circumstances in which they occur then it is safe to say it is unlikely and will end badly. So lets save ourselves some wasted time and just do away with all the issues we are faced with that seems highly improbable of happening and stop trying to trick ourselves that it will or live on false hopes.

More
I am working on a project that I am very excited about and that I hope will come into fruition and be somewhat successful. I think that there is a joy that you get from planning something and then putting it into action and seeing how it materialises. Its nice to see your vision grow legs.
So this project: I have very high hopes for it, and if all goes well it will get its legs in the next couple months. Since I am not the only member of the project, the genesis and progression of it will also be dependent on the other individuals.
When I get excited about something like this i generally get alot of ideas on the way forward, and i am very bent on everyone putting in a 150% so that it can be a success. Though I appreciate the input of all the talented people involved, sometimes i wish that I was going it alone, trodding the path by myself, because at least the things that need to get done for the progression of the project will actually be completed, because I see the urgency of it. Again i appreciate everyone who is a part of the project, because they are all every talented in their areas, I just want them to stop sitting on their asses. I think that they dont fully understand what needs to be done for the success of the project. I am not asking for them to work 24 hours a day or increase the amount of time they work on their respective sectors because we all have a 9-5. I just want them to actually do what they are suppose to get done.
But with all that said, I do have faith in the project and that we will make a tremendous leap in the next couple of months. :)
This week I have started to take better care of my finances (Adrian if you read this donot laugh, I am serious). I am so brookkke that I have no other choice than to take better care of my finances.
There are a couple of things that I really need (want, would do good with):
1. A new laptop (this is most important)
2. A palm pilot (maybe)
3. I need to pay my tuition for August (this should be number 1 but i really do need the laptop).
Speaking about money, my friends and I were talking last week about when we were in high school how much money we had and why the hell that when we start working we are some broke ass peeps. Let me tell you, when i was in high school i went to 95% of all the parties and i didnt get the hook up with some free tickets. And these parties were pretty expensive, plus i pretty much bought a new outfit every week. Plus i went to the salon every week. I basically had money rolling out my ass. Now at 24 when i am a grown woman and i have a job, i cant find money to do the things i wanted. My friends theory is that we ate little lunch so we had a lot of money to spend on other trivial things. But we did it, everyday. I remember we left school everyday and walked to McDonald's for lunch [almonst everyday]. It was a good thing that we played sports, because all those sandwiches from Mickey D's would have made us blimps at 16, 17 and 18.
Well i still dont know how we were able to have so much money, but i wish i was that age again: for the money I somehow had and all the fun i had :). Since i have been working (all 3 years of pain; naw just kidding) i havent been out as much as i used to, or hung out with my friends as much as i used. And so help me God I will not become one of those people who when the reach a certain age think that they should stop hanging out because "they are getting to old for this"--Bullshit. Are you ever too old to hang out and have fun....Never.
So I am gonna make more of an effort to keep in touch with people and do more stuff with my friends.
The Week In Perspective
This week was an ok couple of days. It rained alot, I think today was actually the only day that the sun actually came out for more than 2 hours. Since it is approaching hurricane season we will definitely have a lot more rain. I am not so sure if it is a good or a bad thing. As a result of the constant rain I am not able to go jogging/walking for all of this week and have to resort to walking on the treadmill-which sucks ass.
Anyhow on the topic of work: It wasn't too bad, but could have been better. Next week I am going to try and meet my target, plan ahead and be a little more prepared for each day so I can accomplish what I need to get done for the week. This will help me to increase the number of targets that I have.
I am also very excited about going to Negril this Independence weekend which is August 4-7. I can't wait, I think it will be "wicked". Hopefully I get to see all those people I used to hang out with that went abroad for college. Plus they are having some parties that they use to have a couple years ago that was really good.
Apart from booking my room and being all excited, I got A's on my last 2 exams which is really a nice surprise since I didnt expect to get it. So now I am 4 for 5 in the A's department, not so sure I will do that well on the most recent exams I did (Economics and Marketing). I really dont think that exams truly reflect how well someone can use the information from the course in the real world. I didnt think i was gonna get A's because I didnt attend that many class and understood very little from those that i went to. Dont get me wrong, I am happy i got the damn A, but i am sort of curious as to how. There are other individuals who go to all the classes and get B's. So I wander about that. This semester though I plan to go to all my classes and try to grasp as much of the material as possible and be a little more responsible. I think my classmates think i am fickle since i dont go to all the classes like they do, So this semester I hope to show them that i cam just as responsible. I guess because its an MBA programme and most of the students are older than I am, they think i am not serious about the programme but I am. I hope to take away as much as possible from the experience.
As I am writing this, I am thinking that maybe I am rambling alot, but I guess I am just I am unloading all that happened this week.
I learnt alot about people and how they behave. I think that the more I try to trust people the more they let me down and the more cynical I get. I have totally given up on guys and have decided that I am just going to do what feels right at the moment. I think this week has made me less willing to be in a relationship because of the expectations that I have of people and how easily they tend to dissapoint. So i am now re-evaluating getting serious with someone or giving them an insight into my soul.
Anyhow on the topic of work: It wasn't too bad, but could have been better. Next week I am going to try and meet my target, plan ahead and be a little more prepared for each day so I can accomplish what I need to get done for the week. This will help me to increase the number of targets that I have.
I am also very excited about going to Negril this Independence weekend which is August 4-7. I can't wait, I think it will be "wicked". Hopefully I get to see all those people I used to hang out with that went abroad for college. Plus they are having some parties that they use to have a couple years ago that was really good.
Apart from booking my room and being all excited, I got A's on my last 2 exams which is really a nice surprise since I didnt expect to get it. So now I am 4 for 5 in the A's department, not so sure I will do that well on the most recent exams I did (Economics and Marketing). I really dont think that exams truly reflect how well someone can use the information from the course in the real world. I didnt think i was gonna get A's because I didnt attend that many class and understood very little from those that i went to. Dont get me wrong, I am happy i got the damn A, but i am sort of curious as to how. There are other individuals who go to all the classes and get B's. So I wander about that. This semester though I plan to go to all my classes and try to grasp as much of the material as possible and be a little more responsible. I think my classmates think i am fickle since i dont go to all the classes like they do, So this semester I hope to show them that i cam just as responsible. I guess because its an MBA programme and most of the students are older than I am, they think i am not serious about the programme but I am. I hope to take away as much as possible from the experience.
As I am writing this, I am thinking that maybe I am rambling alot, but I guess I am just I am unloading all that happened this week.

My Blog has been very vague and deals with general issues rather than illustrate what happens to be on a day to day basis. Starting with today I will start being a little more specific in writing on my Blog.
