Happy.New.Year

Yes, Yes Ya'll...
It's that tima again, New Years Eve!
Like I said before, I shall be at work when the ball drops...so I'm wishing you all a Happy New Year! I hope you have realized or found your own personal reason to appreciate the year that has passed. Whether it's good or bad, hopefully you learned something. Haha. I hope the best for you and yours in the new year. Remember, it is a blessing to be alive to see this day. So before you get drunk out your mind, thank the heavens. 'Kay?
I'm trying to finish up laundry. Not suppose to wash clothes on New Years Day, my Grandma told me that too. Haha. =] I'm kind of sleepy right now. I might as well shake that off, bout to head to work in a few.
Well, see ya in the New Year. Remember, each day...each year, is what you make it. Live out loud!

Ol.Alabama

Taking It Back One Hour...
since I'm in a different time zone now.
On the way to Alabama, going through the mountains.
 Well, getting up Monday morn wasn't as hard as I expected. We got on the road and headed to Ol Bama. Once we all arrived, we got straight to work. Three flights of stairs, three flights I say! I got my exercise in for the week. I'm still feeling sore today.
  Speaking of today... My moms, big sis, and I went out on the town. Haha. Ate Denny's...which I probably should have passed on. I'm not a big breakfast person. Sometimes, it makes me feel bad...don't know why. Anywho, we went to the mall and SuperTarget. I hardly find anything in the mall. Maybe a shirt here or there...nothing too extravagant though. We went to White Barn and I got me a nice plug-in air freshener. Can't wait to put that bad boy in my dorm room. I found me a cute bra in target. This is a big deal! I'm a sports bra girl. I only own one black push-up bra, which I got in high school when I was on danceline. Now, I got this white and red snowflake one. Woot, I'm moving on up...literally.
  So, New Year's Eve! When the ball drops, I will be just getting off work. Yeah. 10PM-12AM. It's not so bad...I didn't have any plans. At least I will be bringing the New Year in making money. Hm...I don't know...I'm hoping some of my friends will come rescue me or have some get-together going on once I'm off.
  Don't forget, a man should be the first to walk through your door on New Years, its good luck. That's what my Grandma says, so eh...I believe it. =] Maybe The Baller will be helpful in that department. We shall see, I shall post.

Taking It Back, Wayyy Back...
 Okay, maybe not "wayyy back." Well, tonight I was transferring some music files from my old computer at home. My sis [even my my on occasion] and I were jammin'! 
Remember these?
  • Emotion - Destiny's Child
  • Don't Leave Me Girl - Blackstreet
  • If I Ever Fall in Love - Shai [I love the acapella version!]
  • Bestfriend - Brandy
  • I Want To Be Your Man - Zapp & Roger
  • Gone - *NSYNC [Yeah, I took it there.]
  • Swing My Way - Inoj
There was more...but you get the idea. Haha. I need to get "Computer Love" by Zapp & Roger. I heard that on the radio the other day. Yes, I was getting down in the car on that one.

Moving.Day

On The Road Again...
Tomo...well...Today, I shall be on the move again to Alabama. 
  I made it back to Atlanta around 7-8. Before I left home, I visited my old friend. We had a good ol time catching each other up, when I finally found her house. I know I have been there plenty of times, but it had been so long. I don't know, it just seemed smaller than I remembered. I always thought her house was so huge! I mean, they had stairs, a big yard, and a pool! Haha. She is a darling. Her whole family is so nice. I hope she liked her gift, if not, she fooled me. Before, I left she surprised me with her mom's biscuits and cinnamon rolls. A whole batch, just for meee! Those things are good.
  After that, I made a quick run to Its Fashion. I went in there with my male Bestest yesterday. I saw a few things that I wanted to come back to and try on. I got a black vest and a red cardigan. Score! =]
  By the time I reached my house, Cali was there waiting for me. He came by to see me before I left. He's a sweetie. He seemed extra handsome today...hm. He gave me a kiss on my forehead. [Gotta love those forehead kisses.] Anywho, my moms and I loaded up our things and I gave him a hug goodbye. Soon after, we picked up my lil cousin, he got recruited into the whole moving process too. Haha. I kissed my Grandma good-bye and hit the road.
  I didn't get too sleepy this time, but my eyes were low. Oh! Strangest thing happened when I stopped for gas. You know how the nozzle handle will jolt when the tank is full? Well, it didn't do that...so Im pumping and I hear this weird gurgle noise, next thing i know, gas spills from my car. Needless to say, it was full. Took less money than usual, so eh. My mom was like, "that is so dangerous...if someone throws a cigarette down thinking that is just water on the ground, they are gonna get hurt." Hm, wouldn't of thought about that.
  I hit traffic, called my Unc, found a detour. When we made it, my fam and I all got to work loading up my sister's moving van. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Finished up there, went to my dorm. Luckily, my homie was driving up when I arrived. He gave a helping hand in unloading my stuff. After some time, The Baller came over and chilled. Nice lil visit. 
  Now I must go to bed. I have to get up early. Haha. Clearly, I'm not gonna want to move out of bed, let alone, move my sister's stuff. Haha.

Mood.Change

Talk About Mood Swings...
  I was just sooo super wiped-out an hour ago. Pouting and what not. So I started to listen to Kanye's 808s & Heartbreak. First, I was mopping to "Bad News" then I started to listen to "Paranoid." This album came just in time to rescue me from my pointless disposition. I mean, from the beginning when he asks "Why are you so paranoid?" and you hear the laughing on the track, I began to crack a smile. He is right... "Baby, don't worry bout it. Hated? Don't even think about it." "You're worried bout the wrong things, the wrong things." Then he asks, "Tell me right now, do you really want to live your whole life alone?"
  Well, no I don't. No need to worry, its useless. I have been having an awesome break...no time to wallow in nostalgia now. I had a great time chillin with my male bestest today. Got me some good ol Zaxbys, his treat.  
  Jinkies, I love how music comes to my rescue. Forget dudes, music is my boyfriend. Okay, maybe not forget dudes all together... I talked to The Baller [code-name], trippin' with him helped me smile too. I'm going to see him in a few days. Thats my homie back at college. He and I have plans to see Seven Pounds, which I heard is awesome. So thats something to look forward to. 
  Now, I'm on the phone with Cali. One guy who has continued to stay by my side. Sweet, nice guy...clearly, I'm "worried bout the wrong things, the wrong things." =]
