Just one hard SPANK.
Anyway, I dont know if i'm the only one besides my sister and I that talk about this, but I'm thinking and wondering, do parents these days discipline their kids enough? In my honest and experienced opinion, I dont even think it exists anymore. Discipline is taken out of parents vocabs. I know every kid has or has HAD a little bit of bratty-ness in them. I admit, I sure did. But to a certain extent? I have a lot of experience with kids via church/sunday school plus my little cousins and G-DAMN they are one hell of an annoying set of stubborn spoiled brats who just need some simple slappings and spankings to put them back into shape. These kids have no manners, always have to have their way or throw wild tantrums, throw on the sour/ i just smelled dog doo-doo for face for hours of a lifetime for NO GOOD REASON. S-P-O-I-L-E-D BRATS, i tell ya. I understand America is all about the "no spanking kids" idea because its "abuse", but get out of here I survived the spanking era with rubber flipflops, belts, sticks, chairs, brooms, man hands, you name it..came out with bruises and STILL survived. It just took a little bit of some spanking back into reality to get me where I am and knock some sense into me.
I don't understand why parents think these "i'll give my kid whatever I want because theyre cute, I love them, and I dont want them to cry" ideas even though they are straight up actin' rude and plain ridiculous when they can easily stop the non sense by raising their voices a bit and when needed SLAP THEM RIGHT BACK INTO PLACE.
And I say all this because my little five year old cousin this weekend tore the living day light patience out of me (if that made any sense) and drove me off the wall with her brattyness. For the 6+ hour drive up, through, and down tahoe while she was awake..she asked a question every other minute. NOT ONCE, NOT TWICE, but FIVE OR MORE TIMES. (For once, i am NOT over-exaggerating) Then slips into bipolar depression tantrum and cried for THIRTY minutes straight screaming and crying on her carseat..all because she was hungry even though her mom had JUST bought her chicken mcnuggets. And through all the crying and torture of our precious ears?...She gets a special stop the car, pull over, check if she wants to pee, check if she peed while crying, and then gets some TLC..aka "stop crying, mamas baby..i love you...*hugs and kisses*" ohh GIVE ME A BREAK! if it weren't for my precious headphones and music on blast to save me i would've been on the news for world's stupidest suicide or murderer. If that was me back then my dad woulda pulled the car over, took me out the car, slapped the living day lights outta my ass which woulda stopped me from crying, hopped back in the car and leave me to mope silently in my carseat and not dare do what i just did again.
NOTE TO SELF: Treat all stubborn spoiled brats ages 5-10 like your enemies. Be Selfish and Torture them with your free access to candy that they can't have. haha
Oh, did I mention? The trip was still fun and beautiful despite rotten brats.

no respect.
Goes HAND IN HAND.
do us a favor, stay off the bandwagon.
What I think thats even funnier, no wait what i think that's more ANNOYING than most things...is the recent "number" game where you message a friend a number and they write something about you on their status on facebook. I wont deny that yea, it might be interesting but the fact that suddenly people want to know their status with that one friend all of a sudden. Its funny, cause if you think about it... for the people who have talked to that one person in a while...you gotta be a bit fake dont you think? you gotta pull out the old school card and say.."well remember back then ..or i didnt know you that well but you seem like a cool friend..." HAHA a-w-k-w-a-r-d. Nobody wants to see what you have to say about other people on your status and have them bomb your feed. If you guys were really friends you would say it in person..not front online.
Or maybe i might just be writing all this cause I'm hella annoyed at how much its bombed my feed and while reading some of them somewhere in the midst of the status it'll say "...but you SEEM like a cool friend.." please. save yourself. YOU SOUND plain STUPID.

Good outweighs the Bad.
I began a project for myself today with no specific means or any due dates to be done by but just as a story where I can just find a way to put all my thoughts that i've bottled up and had for the five past years into one and to close that chapter of my life as now i can finally come to a full circle and have peace with myself. I dont know if i will be sharing it publicly on this blog. But i'm sure if you do ask for it, i'll be down to share it with you if youre nosey about what its really about. =) I just hope I can finish this project and not have it lingering in the middle of nowhere.
Till then, live out the rest of 2010 like Jay Sean would cause "its the end of the world"...and have a great holiday season.

Expectations. vs. Reality.
It's expectations vs. reality where we try to comprehend the difference between the two. One thought can make us miserable and upset while the other can make us happy with a world series attitude when all sets in. To convince your mind to believe one thing and to bring yourself to realization when reality sets in on not what you've expected is two differences with a fine line clearly differentiating them. It's one of the biggest heartaches that we go through yet no one can ever physically see, feel, and understand it with us. We're too afraid to show that we're hurting inside and out that we begin to run away from our problems only having it to come back and slap us right back in the face. If only we can realize that reality shouldnt have expectations because the analyzations simply become over-analyzed and strenuous. Then we can understand ourselves better in knowing that fine line by overlooking expectations. And when our expectations may not always be in par with reality, understand that everything is going to be JUST fine. And if ever expectations overpower your reality, know that reality is life as we know it and without expectations can we never imagine or dream past our limits.
post thanksgiving.
To top it off, finally kicked it with my girls for Ej's birthday. On top of that, It was a reunion left and right with people i havent seen in ages. Every set of friends I have make me smile, laugh, and remember why I have and appreciate friends like them..but these set of girls, hands down, keep me on my toes and have me disgusted and dying of laughter all at the same time. Being open and blunt is #1 in their vocabulary. I'm glad I've still got some friends from high school to still hold me down and feel like nothin's changed since then.

Being Thankful.
I'll admit, i know Thanksgiving till Christmas plus maybe New Years is usually everyones favorite. I tend to feel a heavy heart around this time. I dont know what it exactly is but it doesnt excite me as everyone else is. No matter how great my year went, somehow late november and december seem to always find a way to bring my spirits down. Anyway, While singing the old time hymn "Give thanks" at church last sunday for the annual thanksgiving service, the lyrics hit me pretty deep and made me realize that I have everything i need in my life and that i am soo thankful ...or at least more so than i am. This year feels different and I hope that the little string tugging my heart telling me that this year is going to be different is right. Eh... Here it goes..
Some things that I'm WAY grateful for and take for granted (unintentionally):
My family: I dont think times could be any harder financially for us since the economy has gone nuts. But even though times are rough, im glad that they sacrifice a lot of things for themselves so they could put me in school. And not only keep me in school but give me the complete college lifestyle of living away from home and on top of that, still being able to somehow get me things i want for my own desired/unecessary needs. Even with a snobby/ itchbay attitude, they manage to put up with, they still are able to tolerate me once a week. haha I guess the perks to living like a princess now is to have to give them free massages and rehab therapys once im a certified PT. -__-.
My friends: Theres way too many different groups that I roll with to name each and every one, but for the friends who have literally been there for me physically and emotionally. Who have taken the time to set aside some quality time and put efforts into making our friendship lasts. No words could describe how much our friendship means. Corny as that sounds, i'm dead serious. Some days, i just sit in a daze wondering how i'm blessed with such crazy yet amazingly great friends.
This year in general: The countless trips i've been on this year. The differents breathless scenes of every state I visited. The rollercoaster relationships. The friends who got married this year. The friends who got pregnant this year. The friends who all turned 21 this year. The friend who's son that had a tumor and fought against it and won. And the year that I found out that I'm in the "third quarter" finally graduating in less than two years. And through all of these memorable memories, everything was a blessing in disguise. It taught me so much more than being thankful but to keep God as #1 because without him i wouldnt have been able to say what I had done and experienced this year. =)
I have way more to be thankful for and I know the things I listed above are cliche but what do you expect? ...my brain can barely function in this below freezing temperature. So i'll leave it at that and wish you and your family one of the best thanksgivings ever. Happy Holidays!

I love the way you LIE.
I feel like society just gets worse as the years pass. It's all about how you look. If you arent up to par, you can peace yourself out and pretty much be social suicide. (ok, thats an exaggeration)But like how its all about presenting yourself. You could have the most terrible work ethics, bad attitude, and could win the laziest award of the year courtesy of your parents but if you could simply dress yourself up, look over 25, and have a mouth piece..You can hold the world in your hands. It's all about false advertising yourself and lying your way to get the things you need. For example, a job interview. It's all about b.s.ing your way through EVERYTHING they ask. You say what they want to hear and BOOM, congratulations you have the job. Sometimes I look at some of these customer services that I recieve walking into a store and think HOW THE HELL did they get hired with that kind of rude attitude. Well, obviously they must have a mouth piece that could probably talk their way out of hell and what's new, they're fake.
Not only does this apply to jobs, but with relationships too. Lets be honest, you don't want to date someone that doesn't give you any type of eyecandy when you first meet them although we all want to believe its not true and we all have some "good" in us. (Unless you just had a REALLY great heart. i.e. Landon Carter from A walk to remember) Like the quote goes "Nice guys finish last" and in most cases, they do because nice guys dont care about their outer appearance more than the playa playas who constantly are on the fashion hype. Sometimes I feel like if only EVERY single one of us in this world ALL became blind, true love would be....well true real love. Cut out the phony egos, artificial bodies, and fake attitudes. Everyone would be real and would be judged by their personality and "goodness" of the heart, not by their looks. But that obviously would never happen. And everything would just fall back to "Its not what matters on the inside anymore, its all about the outside." If you don't pass above a 8 in our books, youre UNDER my league.
And as I am slowly moving into the real world looking for jobs and getting whats needed to be done, I present myself as another phony, artificial, and fake person. Something we all hate to admit ourselves to being but must accept to get by.

Time capsule.
So the next time when someone ask you to help out, accompany them, do them a favor, etc...think. Are you legitly busy or are you just making up selfish excuses because YOU don't want to do it because it won't benefit you. Remember, There's always a time for anything and everything, you just make it for yourself.
Or this could just be my way of ranting on about people who give me b.s. excuses about not having time. haha

getting your "goods" together
It's a little creepy if you ask me where lifes taking me. I honestly thought I was planning on graduating and beginning my new chapter of my life in the Bay Area. At this point, it seems like that just may not happen let alone California. And i think that's what scares me the most...being more than 1000+ miles away from my family and friends. But as my latest motto goes "Go wherever life takes you and not where you take it".
I'm glad however that eventhough all the stress and anxiety I go through, I still will and always have my family and true FRIENDS to keep me sane and give me a reality check once in a while and let me have my share of fun. And for that, I owe the world to you guys. (you know who you are) Thanks.

reasons as to why i love howlaween.
Friday, November 5, 2010
"Through all of this, A.I. went through his own issues with playing times, coming off the bench, injuries, and pseudo-injuries. By the end of the season Allen was seen as the problem with the Pistons and he was blamed for all of Denver’s previous struggles. The next season was nothing but a disaster in Memphis followed by a failed homecoming party in Philly. Questions about his healthy, finances, and personal issues arose. He did nothing to help the situation when he went out to Turkey, seeking a European contract.
We all wanted to see him win, but it never happened and by the end of his career we all wanted him to just retire and save us and himself the pain and agony. It was a disastrous ending to a storied career. Allen captured our hearts as he played through countless injuries. In the end A.I. had left us with more questions than answers and that’s something none of us ever asked for."
-a piece taken from an article courtesy of NBAOFFseason on Allen Iverson.
And as for any true fan of Iverson's, you could probably relate to my personal thoughts on how he left the NBA and that last paragraph altogether. Indeed, all we wanted was for him to retire as the man we saw him as during his prime, not a prideful a-hole. Oops, did i just say that about my beloved star? Well, i figured i'd share this with anyone else out there who shares the same love i have for him no matter how much of a jerk he was leaving the nba and how he left us, his personal fan club, hanging with more questions than answers. Thank you to whoever blogged for nbaoffseason about AI, for summing up our thoughts and feelings about his leave of absence from the nba all in one.
