Yarrrrd Sailiiiiiing!

This past Saturday I went yard sailing with my mother and youngest sister, it was awesome!

Watching her in action was amazing, even though I got off to a slow start,
7AM + Saturday = Dead Bree
There were church yard sales and community yard sales it truly was an amazing Saturday.
I actually scored a few Items while on this adventure, there were three books two were murder mysteries and the other was The Da Vinci Code (something I had been looking for).  The other items I took pictures of for you guys to see:

This awesome Anchor Pendant (25cents), which has seriously had me consider getting another tattoo.

(the necklace I got sometime ago flea market find for $1)

I found the bag at one yard sale and the pendant at another so Sweet!

I found Waldo!(for 25cents) Be prepared for a series of segments of pictures where you'll have to find him in random photos I take.

This is what I though to be my master find of the day (not a great photo better one later). This awesome well worn messenger bag, it kind of has this vintage feel to it which makes me want to run to the nearest Belk and buy a blue floral cotton dress and some Sperrys. (^_^) the label says its by J. Crew, Im really not too big on labels anymore (I used to be a pure [Label] junkie when I was younger). 

Now its more about if it looks good then take it and make it your own.

Oh and Can't forget my baby, she woke up, saw me taking photos and had to put her two cents in. LOL!

Ha! thats All for now folks!

To Wear or Not to Wear?

Some people wear them and some do not. 

 Like this Couple here-->

<----And this guy

These Two Also

(though you cannot see hers)

Who could forget the Royal Couple?

So what is this them I am talking about?

Why the rings of course!
Whether their Simple and Elegant Like these

The reason as to why I am asking about these lovely couples is because I recently caught wind from www.cosmopolitan.com about how England's Prince doesn't plan to wear a wedding band. Gasp!. Not that everyone won't know he is married, for me it's the principal of the marriage. It's about what their marriage stands for.

A ring isn't always about the "Bling" so to speak..

A little Thought Goes A Long Way..

Truth be told, if I were married I'd like for my husband to wear his wedding ring like I would be wearing mine. 

ALL THE TIME!

So tell me, How do you feel about a man who doesn't wear his wedding ring? 
Or (although rare)  a woman who doesn't wear hers?

Sweet Nothings..

Sadly I'm still kissing the wrong frogs..

My favorite Disney Movie... The Princess and The Frog

I can remember the day when I had my first kiss, in fact I remember all of my first kisses...(not too many, Mom) Ha ha ;0)
The way I see it is that you never have one first kiss, you have many first kisses. they usually could have begun like these..



Sweet and Subtle (Awww)

Unexpected, Passionate and Wild! (My personal Favorite)

Cute and Fun!

 Who could Forget the Classic Kisses of Pure Passion

 

Missing a loved One 

Or Meeting Someone New After War...

Movie Kisses

Dear John... *Sighs*I Love You ;0)

Most Anticipated New Moon Kiss

The Unforgettable Spider Man Kiss

These are my personal favorite kisses, So it doesn't matter your first kiss with that special person or your first kiss ever, they all deserve the respective Memory Title of First Kiss.

The Secret Life, Teen Moms, Teen Dads?, Saving the Future

Warning Serious Note here people!


I do not believe teen pregnancies are acceptable. It wasn't that big of a problem for me until shows like "16 and Pregnant" and "Teen Mom" came out, there was even a time when I adored "The Secret Life". But one thing is for sure and that is,  I will not discriminate against or judge a girl for being a teen mom.

If you have heard of this show then you may be a fan unless you're like me in which you probably could be neither here nor there about the show. Don't get me wrong, I loved The Secret Life when is first came out, I loved the teen drama and how the producers put a comedic spin on the very serious situation.

But now as we have arrived into the third season of this show I can't help but feeling like its the same ol' song and dance. You know teen drama Blah blah someone is pregnant other couples are struggling with having sex and resisting the urge to have sex, and all that gas.

I'm not knocking ABC for trying to create a 'Real' life drama, but this seems like it has fallen below the bar as in terms of real life. I mean wouldn't it be great if when ever a teen girl had gotten pregnant she'd struggle with the thought of abortion and then change her mind, and then keeps her baby and goes through the motions of being with the father and then he happens to actually want to be there for her and the baby, and then great and amazing things happen when her family actually wants her to keep the baby too.

It's not like that, thats not real life. There are girls that my sister (15) knows who are from ages 12-16 who get pregnant have babies and then the father is no where to be found and their parents will do one of three things, guilting them into aborting (or adopting out) the baby, kicking them out of the house (which leaves them to sort out things in foster care or living on the street), or they will help them by having them live there but making them get jobs. Real life is not a show like MTV's Teen Mom or Teen mom 2 (Really? It's like they're promoting teen pregnancy). True Story: One of the girls on Teen Mom got a boob job with her TV money, now how is her daughter supposed to benefit from that?..

Now the first teen mom was okay it did help some look into the lives of what some teen moms go through, but Teen Mom 2, I can just imagine the hoards of naive girls looking to see how they can time it right for the next 16 and Pregnant and on to Teen Mom 3.


So could you imagine being a 15 year old girl thinking about what college you want to go to and who you want to intern for and going shopping on Mom and Dad's dime, and then all of it comes to a halt because you had sex and got pregnant. There is nothing worse than the feeling of having to tell mom and dad their little girl is pregnant.

Imagine being 12 or 13 little girl and not having a clue...

That's it, that is real life. Real Life is not having friends around to help you take care of your mistake/blessing (The Secret Life)  and it certainly isn't about having make up and a 60-65 thousand dollar tv show contract (Teen Mom)  it is hot, sleepless nights of heart burn and gas, and freezing, tired mornings of vomit and hunger pangs. The sad part is that a lot of these younger girls 9-13 are usually ill informed or their parents aren't in their lives due to them working.   Yes, Reader you read me right girls out here are young as 9 years old having sex and getting pregnant. Imagine what they think when they see shows like 16 and Pregnant, children can be so impressionable. Just be aware and talk to them, ask the uncomfortable questions and ask them if they have any questions. They need to know in this world that we live in they have the right to protect themselves and to say NO!.

Sorry for the serious moment readers, It just really pisses me off how these shows glamorize teen pregnancy. I have plenty of friends who have gotten pregnant as teens, found a job, graduated from high school, and then went on to be stay at home students by registering at the community college to get their associates degree in what ever field they chose. But all will tell you it was never easy, none of them will say "oh I had an easy pregnancy" or "Going to school was a breeze when I was pregnant". You know what you will hear these young girls say "I got pregnant for a show and then I wasn't chosen because they didn't like my character."
-______- I'm sorry what? Pregnant...for a show...? Yeah this is the thought process of some of the girls of today.

-Done-

If you have made it this far Thank You please inform your little sisters, nieces, daughters, brothers, sons, and nephews about teen pregnancy and the other risks that are being taken when they have sex.

When I graduated in 2009 out of the five girls I hung out with I was the only girl who didn't get pregnant or have children in grades before then.  Now, I had acquaintances who were not pregnant but Im talking about my main circle of friends.

A website i came across with a very good article about teen pregnancy, http://www.chicktalkdallas.com/blog/?p=5574

I love Pretty Little Liars!

So here is my personal kind of rhyming kind of not poem.

Obnoxious Bitches and Silent Deceptions/smile in your face when wanting to befriend/ turn the other cheek when it’s time to defend/killings in cold blood behind doors of ‘protection’/ web of lies spun in different directions/ colorful stories told by believers of the mill/ close your eyes, hold your breath it’s all going down hill/ beware ladies, this is High School for beginners.

Get Real Bitches this is life for The Winners.

I am honestly a true Die Hard Fan of the show, but since the second season has ended for now I'm going to get to know the books, but not all of them I don't want to ruin the ending for myself. LoL

Ugh! Girly Feelings...

Names have been changed to protect thy heart.
Some days I honestly hate being a girl especially the ones where I'm feeling particularly girly.

By that I'm talking about in means of love, cold hard crushes, sweet glances with passer-by's and the rare on again off again relationship.

This time cupid didn't shoot me with an arrow, he hit me with a rock... a big one.
Just as I started to recover from the last rock Cupid threw at me, he picked up his sling shot and launched another (Angry Birds Style) and it hit me right in the chest with such a force that It gave me such terrible side effects which included an accelerated heart rate, dilated pupils, phantom smiling, and an over indulgence of daydreams and giggles.
Sad..
It's sad how I feel about you, I might even call it pathetic. You say it's because I deserve better, but I wonder if it's the fact that we deserve each other, that we always end up coming back to where we started from.
(kind of how I'm feeling about my current conundrum)

Don't get me wrong readers I will never give up on love. I love seeing people in love, helping people learn to love, and of course being in love myself. It is something that we owe to ourselves not to seek out love but to let it come to us and when it does we should then learn to hold on to it but not so hard that we kill it.
So readers, I'm just saying don't give up on love. Truthfully you should always be in love with someone even if that some one is you, love yourself first.

Jordin Sparks...Wowzers!

I was reading an article from http://www.nydailynews.com Where they talk about 07' Idol Winner Jordin Sparks, now I just thought it was just another negative gossip article or something of that nature but I clicked on it anyway and wow!

Miss Sparks how stunning you look, it appears as if she has dropped about twenty pounds of her original weight. She truly looks great while maintaining her curves and glowing complexion. It's as if she's not just losing weight but working on a healthy diet as a whole. I feel this is good since there are so many young ladies out there  following her  that want to just drop the weight as fast as possible, not caring about the consequences (like gaining it back as fast as they've dropped it).

The picture is something I have gotten from http://www.nydailynews.com where Sparks was said to be at Muhammad Ali's Celeb Fight Night.
