Quits From Coffee... For This Week

So y'all know that I have been following a vegetarian (well, sometimes veggie, sometimes pescatarian) diet since January, and that jump start to eating healthier is still a work in progress, but it has definitely made me re-evaluate what I have been eating and drinking.

One of the biggest things that is consistently in my diet is COFFEE! I'm a coffee maniac. I'm, sadly, a workaholic and it causes me to stay up really late, so because of that, I get no sleep and barely have energy to actually do my job lol, so I lean on coffee to get me through.

It does the job, but I pour 2 tablespoons, at the least, of sugar in my coffee, on top of creamer and whipped cream. Add that up over the week, and that's a lot of sugar that can eliminated.

So for this week, I'm going to wean myself off coffee and see the differences.

I had no coffee today and had my usual amount of sleep, and surprisingly, I wasn't sleepy, was actually more efficient at school, left earlier than usual, and was generally more happier. Hopefully, the same will occur for the rest of the week and I'll wean myself off coffee...

Now, I probably need to tackle the real problem.... The fact that I'm a workaholic and get no sleep -_____-

We Can't Be Friends!!

I just got inspired by Try Songz (yeah I know).  But it is what it is.  I'm at work listening to music and We can't be friends just spoke to me.  After trying to keep in touch with exes and male friends from the past, I have realized that if there was suppose to be a friendshipk, then we would have had one by now. 

I know I'm not the only one who keeps in touch with the oldies (lol).  I think, as women, and this is my opinion, that we try to hold on to those who have gone out of our lives, because feel like they will see what they had and change their ways.  Keeping our fingers crossed when we speak to them just waiting for him to say "let try again".  Ha!  This is not the case ladies.  We have to let it go.  This includes myself.

I keep in contact with just about every guy I use to date or even know (sounds foolish right).  Now I'm not a pest, but I will check up on a brother every couple of months or so.  And these dudes are good.  One in particular always had me thinking, after we ended our call, that it was my fault that we didn't go further.  I mean talk about being highly upset.  LOL...  I had to check myself. 

This is where Trey Songz comes into play.  We can't be friends.  You know why?  For the most part, we have gone too far.  Not to mention, that men are suppose to be the hunter.  If they wanted to know what I was doing on the weekend they would call (but they don't).  People will make time for what they want and excuses for what they don't.  Ladies don't settle for being friends if what you want is a relationship.  Don't jump into a relationship if you have yet to become friends (you'll get this later).  Respect yourself first.  Until next time.

Ciao!

TRASH IT OR STASH IT? Eco Styler Olive Oil Gel

I hear mixed reviews about this product...

However, I'm going to have to trash it. Despite repeated attempts and different methods of using it, my hair flaked within a day... I can't take that! Blah!

Why wait for Cupid?

Hey y'all.  I hope no one was in the house waiting for an imaginary figure to come shoot them with his bow and arrow (lol).  If you were, please stop.  Love will come to you in when it is suppose to.  And if you can't wait for that day to come, then I suggest you get out there and find your love on your own.  Why wait for Cupid right?

I promised myself that I would go out more and try to start dating.  Well since the beginning of 2012, I have not even remotely been in vicinity of an attractive man.  I have been to events to network and for the most part, these events have been packed with women (where are the men).  I know.  I know.  Men are not going to ride up to my door and present me with a night on the town (at least this is what my co-worker told me this morning).  This is not what I am looking for.

It seems that when I let people know that I am single, they want to know why, but they ask with the saddest face imaginable.  LOL...  I mean it's not a plague (or is it).  I think that I have come to accept my being single as a way for me o focus on other things that I have in the works. 

This past Christmas was the first time that I actually did NOT feel sad (or bitter) about my relationship status.  Of course, I would love to date and get to know someone.  But you guys know dating takes time and a truck load of patience.  If you have any of the latter, please sell me some, because I am fresh out.  LOL...  I am going to get it together and soon, but right now I have to work on me and get priorities straight.  In the mean and between time, you guys enjoy your week.  Ciao!
