I am Pretty Positive I am Living a Fairy Tale

There was a point that whenever I would sit and read a love story, I believed that those feelings were unrealistic. Well let me say that I was wrong. It may sound cliche at times, but when you find yourself experiencing those feelings for yourself, it's the most wonderful feeling in the world, when you are experiencing it for yourself.I am glad to have finally found someone to have those feelings about. =) It's that feeling that spend your life with anybody else is impossible. It's the moment that as soon as he walks through the door you find yourself happier at that moment then you were all day. When his texts always bring a smile to your face. This is really just a couple of them.

I guess the most interesting part of all of this, is that the feelings I have just keep growing,and it's feelings I have never experienced before in my life. As a little girl I wanted prince charming to come and sweep me off my feet. Although being 6 years old, you don't really know what would feel like and as you grow older and have yet to feel that feeling you question whether those feelings really exist. The fact of the matter is they do exist. It's the feelings that you read in a Nicholas Sparks novel, the parts where you sigh and wish you could feel the same. Then suddenly it happens and you can't help but wonder what you saw in the other people that you took a moment to notice. Because no one could make you feel the same way, in fact never could.

hahaha I feel like I should sit down and write a novel... but on a serious note, it's the most beautiful feeling in the world to know that someone, out of the billions of people out there in the world finds you pretty special... that makes him a keeper in my book =)

Encourage Somebody...They will thank you

Have you ever just sat and marveled over the changes in your life that have taken place? Just sit and compare where you are now to where you were this time last year. There are times where I get so busy that I forget to reflect and thank God for what I have. It's sad to say that in so many ways I fail God. Now one of the things in life that I have always found amazing is that God loves me despite my oh so many flaws. The very idea that God would send His Son to save a stubborn girl who has a temper, is self centered at times and the list just goes on from there. It is just amazing.


Last night I got to talk to my dear sister Asha! Asha is the big sister I never had, and whenever I talk to her I feel lifted up and so encouraged. I am a firm believer that everyone needs at least two people in their lives that encourage them.





Asha is my big sister and every time we talk I always feel so encouraged, as well as reminded of how much God loves me.The only thing that keeps us apart is the fact that she lives in Ohio and I live here in Maryland. We connected the moment we met and since then have been keeping in touch with each other the best that we can.






My boyfriend Colin is another person that encourages me. For one thing he should probably get an award for putting up with me. I am so blessed by having him in my life. I can not even begin to tell you how any times I have been encouraged by this guy! God is doing so many great things in his life and He is going to continue to do so. he's not only my boyfriend, but my best friend whom i can tell anything to.



With so many amazing people in my life it's so easy to take them for granted. My prayer is that I won't take the people in my life for granted, but remind myself how blessed I am to have them.


This year is going to be full of excitement and adventure. I am not sure what all this year will bring but I am anxious and willing to find out as the months go by.

I am giving my blog a makeover...again..I like my blog to change as I do. I am always changing. New look, new music..new font... what can I say? I love changes for the good of all. I hope you enjoy the changes as well =)

Mini Rants Do Not Become Me

I know Shania Twain has encouraged every woman on the face of the planet to sing about how we love being women. Don't get me wrong I do love being a woman, but that song only talks about the good things, not what it takes for us to love ourselves.

For example, when I get stressed I break out. I won't lie that stresses me out even more when I do, because it means that need to go back to square one. Then if your make-up doesn't cover it all then you have pull out the stick and spend time dabbing each one and blending it in till you can't see a thing.It's a pain.


Now I love doing my make-up and that's why when I was introduced to Revlon's New Complexion, I am happy to say that I can just use that and leave the stick concealor. All I have to do is smooth it on and be on my way! That is huge! I highly recommend this product! It costs more, but it's worth every penny. I actually feel and look like myself.


Another thing I love is being able to text my Tweets to Twitter. The reason for this is something happens that is Twitter worthy and I have no access to a computer. That is why I love the idea of just pulling out my phone and...Tweet!

I have been reading in 1 Peter =) and I hope to blog next what i have learned from it!

Merry Christmas!

The year 2011 is coming to a close, can you believe that we are at the end of the year already? It's like I blinked and the end of the year is here.

With the year coming to a close and with today being Christmas, I think that this coming week would be a great time to reflect on everything that this year has brought. my plan is to start it tomorrow morning and I will take each day ( hopefully) to reflect on one blessing this year that god has blessed me with! stay tuned! Merry Christmas everybody, and for those who don't celebrate Christmas, Happy Holidays!

The Begining

All around it's obvious what season is upon us; Christmas! There have been Christmas decorations out since Halloween.Although now that the month of December is really only a matter of day's away,I am very excited. I am ready for the music, the decorations, the cookies and pies, and the presents!

Life is full of surprises. I went from being curious about life and what the future holds, to watching it unfold in front of me. Remember those day's when you were 6 and the idea of becoming an adult seemed so far away? All those dreams looked so far away, that in the mind of a 6 year old, it felt like it was never going to happen. Then that 6 year old blinked, and now adulthood is here. I couldn't wait to grow up. Now I have heard that being grown up isn't all it's cracked up to be. To an extent that is true. I have to work, and pay for things. There are times where it's stressful and you would love nothing better then to go back to being 6 years old again and not have a care in the world. The silly thing about it is that we would go right back to wishing we were adults if we really could go back to being 6 year old.
It's kind of odd to think that I am more then half way done being 20! Yet as the year 2011 comes to a close, this time a year is great time to look back and see how far you come and where you are now. There's something about Christmas that makes me really look at where I have been and then prepare myself for the new adventure that the new year will bring my way. In alot of ways i already have a glimpse of that new year. Yet even as I am writing this it's all new and exciting at the same time. This is the part where I would normally say that it's also a scary and nervous time as well, but there is a verse in Hebrews that takes the scary and nervous part out.

" God had planned something better for us so that only together with us would they be made perfect." Hebrews 11:40

Knowing that God has everything planned out and ready is a comfort. sadly however my sinful nature does seem to come into play when it comes to the future. Though as I am looking into the future from what i can see. I really see God's hand in everything. It can be frustrating when it feels that no body understands where you are coming from though. I really wish that i could just let people have an inside view of my heart and let them see that I really know what I'm doing. I'm not rushing, I'm not going to slow. When i see where and how things in my life had played out and how much God is in it. It does make sense to me. yeah it is nice to have people understand, but some day they'll see it for them selves. I just have to keep moving forward and not get freaked when there is no one that understands what I see.

It's all going to make sense within time. =)

Don't you love mystery??

What Is This????? =0

So lately I have been quiet honestly freaked out by the way my life is falling into place... I find this funny because if I remember correctly, I wanted answers, and I got them alright, and my face looks like this...




I'm not joking. Then I have to stop and think. Really Lord???? Is this really how it's going to be??? Sometimes I am satisfied. Even joyful about what's in front of me. Then there is the other that I stare at and think no way. Why do we do that to ourselves?? I mean if it's meant to be it's meant to be! I am so guilty of doing this! I am such a worrywart i guess. It's so sad. The message yesterday in church was about DO NOT WORRY. I know that this was totally me. So this is what I am going to do. I am going to seek God, with everything. If I feel that i have answers look into scripture and trust that God knows best for me. Wanna join me????
