Religiously Speaking
I’m not entirely sure where I stand. I believe in God and I believe what the Bible says. However, my life just isn’t aligning with everything I should be doing. Not necessarily because I don’t want it to, it’s just easier not to. I’m getting tired of doing what I’m told and it’s affecting every aspect of my life. I feel like a whiny teenager…am I a...

Feeling slightly shallow and greedy…
If I could go back...
in time, I’d visit the Sega Genesis, Gameboy Color, Nintendo 64 eras…
Those were the days.
Thanksgiving
Celebrated a day early this year.
Movies with a wonderful friend.
Drove on the highway.
Thanksgiving service and dinner at church.
Great company all day long.
Definitely a wonderful thanksgiving. I absolutely loved it.

Thanksgiving
I’ve been letting this weekend slip through my fingers. However, tonight is the night I get it all together. I’m sick, tired, and I have a long day tomorrow but I don’t care. This thanksgiving break I’m going to catch up and figure out a way to make everything work out in the end.
It’s definitely not too late.
Slackers
I hate when someone works their way out of their responsibilities and I have to pick up their slack. I even hate it when I don’t have to pick up the slack. The fact that everyone is working hard but one selfish person, just angers me.
This is probably one of the reasons why I’m regretting some of the things I’ve signed up for. I’m not cut out to be a babysitter. I can...
Thoughts...
I’m a people pleaser. I find it very difficult to say no. I tend to feel like I owe people favors, which is why I don’t like when people do things for me.
I usually put my desires on hold because I get the feeling I’m being too selfish.
You know I’ve been told I’m greedy.
I need a back bone.
Casino
I’ve been so excited about the new casino being built by my house, mainly because I have a small hope my train station will be remodeled. Or that maybe they might consider putting up a rail between the sidewalk and the 3 car lanes.
I really didn’t have any complaints. The influx of people wouldn’t be coming around my way, and it’s not like I can hear any noise from my...
To Protect Your Dream, You Have To Be Vigilant...

she-is-king:
Walk away from people with “doubtful lips”. Not everyone deserves a backstage pass to your dream, Tell the few people who matter most and get back to work because the reality is, not everyone is supportive of our dreams.
Tell me about it. I might have lost a few friends just telling them what my next moves are.
Improvements
After failing miserably at everything I’ve been doing for the past couple of weeks, I finally got something right today. I know the semester is practically over, but I’m getting myself together. Hopefully I can end with a decent GPA and move on to better things in the Spring.
I need to keep my motivation high.

Mirror
You should be able to look in the mirror, without make up, and genuinely believe you are beautiful. Layers of liquid color, powders, and creams shouldn’t be equivalent to beauty. Stop giving little girls this false idea of beauty.
It irks me when I hear a little kid talking about being sexy. That’s not her real face! You might as well aspire to be a cartoon.
Make-up is extra....
Don't Say a Word
I have mastered the art of holding my tongue. When I’m upset I tend to swallow my pride and just let the other person talk endlessly. I rather waste 10 minutes listening to your senseless BS than 40 trying to convince you of your stupidity.
Too Young for Suicide
She’s only 12 and can’t take it anymore.
When I was that age, suicide wasn’t even in my vocabulary. I didn’t know what that meant, it wasn’t an option. But in today’s world, children are getting bullied through various mediums and a good deal are turning to suicide as a solution. It’s a devastating trend.
She’s told me all her complaints, concerns,...

Let Me Hold Your Hand
Dear imaginary friend,
I thought I’d let you know that I want something substantial. I miss the feeling it gave me. I miss having the company all the time. I miss holding hands while him and I walked down the street.
I miss asking him questions and getting to know him all over again.
All this going on with us right now is nice, it keeps my heart distracted. But my mind wanders and reminds...

Please don’t belittle my situation(s) because you think I’m over-analyzing or worried about nothing. No one knows my plans except me. Just be there if I need an ear. that’s all I ask. Yes, I’m stressed. It may not seem like a big deal to you, but it is to me.
exactly.
Body
My entire body aches…I need a massage. And a hug.
Analyzing
Contemplating the last couple of days. I believe it’s time for some journal writing.
Background
So this has happened to me more than once. So I thought I’d address it.
People that don’t know me tend to think I’m Black. I usually respond by saying “No, I’m Dominican.” That usually brings about the response “well Dominicans are Black too, where do you guys think you came from?”
I have nothing against Black people, but if you ask me what my...

Absolutely incredible…
Snow White and the Huntsman
Just saw the trailer and I’m so excited! I can’t wait to see this movie. My only disappointment…Kristen Stewart as Snow White. Was there no one else?
