How To Make A Style Board - Incomplete

With Every Flaw And All....

I think women are way too particular with the specifics. This is why they eventually scare off every available man who might have been interested in them once upon a time ago. If he tells you that he isnt the kind of person that talks freely about his feelings...leave it as just that. There is no need for you to grenade him with annoying questions just to satisfy your query. Ever thought that maybe he likes to take things slowly? Maybe He's the type that needs time to completely open up. If he was to change and be free with his feelings with you, would you have loved him any more or less? If you can answer yes to this...then you were never really in love with the man. Relax and just take each day as each day comes. If you can point out a number of things about a person that you do not like and wish that he would change these things, then you two arent completely compatible. You should find someone who fits you like a glove. Not try and make them fit. Its like shopping. You are not going to buy something that doesnt fit you and take it home a squeeze into it. It will never work...



This leads me to yet another factor....women have so many underlying insufficiencies. Hence the reasons why women test their mights and try to change their mans flaws. I mean, you're with him and you claim that you love him....then suck it up and take each stone that comes your way....if you can't see yourself doing this...then you took him on as a project and not your partner. He is suppose to be in the fight with you...fighting the worlds obstacles that it will pitch your way. If you see the need to point his flaws out and show a great deal of interest in fixing them...then you need to do the same. If you can find his flaws, means you have flaws equally as bad. Quit with the superwoman complex ladies! And play the game right!


:::I Am The Proof:::.

So, It Was All Just A Dream?

I should be married by now. I should be a mommy with little me's and little him's running around us. A quiet house in the country with a white picket fence. But my reality is far from what my life expectations are. The bottom line is...There has got to be something wrong that I am doing or every man that crosses my path is either mentally, emotionally or morally jigsaw'd. I attract virtually every dysfunctional man that's in the metro. They all seem to be the exact same but different in the same. I've been with the player, the shy guy, the ego, the user, the controller, and all of the rest. Now I find myself at a point of " I don't know what to expect  next". I honestly feel as though I've ran the river dry and I don't have any fight left in me. There are days where I just want to sit out on the bench. I turn down every meet and greet and every "excuse me miss" because I already have my mind precontracted to believe that it'll never work. I use to believe in the fairytale soulmate thing. Only to find out that it is just a bunch of urban legends. Once you get to a certain age, you realize that soulmates only exist for pubescent teens who still believe in that happily ever after cliche. Right? Is it all just fantasy? What do these warmhearted little girls look forward to when they finally reach the world of womanhood?


Prince Charming is just an average jerk who has a thing for wearing sheeps clothing. He is a professional con artist. He must have a degree in Marketing or Sales, because he really had me going for a while. The world is filled with tricks and gain. If you have it, and he wants it, he will promise you the world in order to get it. Im not trying to paint a grey point of view of relationship in the present day but, it appears that everything in life has became a game of personal gain. If you do not know the rules or posess a crafty gameplan to dodge the competition and/or certain obstacles...you will live an ordinarily common life just as every hopeful little girl does......I Think Cupid Is On A VERY Long Hiatus....

Hair Regimen...Spring/Summer 2010

So...here it is...I Never had one...other than...moisturize my hair twice a day and wash once a month( I tried to stick to the washing rule :/).....

But With my new trial and error ....I think I found one that seems to be working....Here It Is...

1. Oil my scalp once every other night....
2. co wash once a week
3. deep condition every two weeks - 4 weeks
4. Moisturize hair twice a day(First i Spray my home made herbal spray, then my own hairspray mix, cantu shea butter, then finish with my own oil blend to seal the hair)
5. Style(which usually is a bun or updo since i have twists in my hair)

Wakey Wakey Mr Alex! ...
