Its.Friday.Night

Just Got Paid, Its Friday Night...
...and I treated myself goooood.
    So basically, my Friday started out to be pretty chilled, considering I slept til like 2PM. I was up late tripping out with the roomies and friends. Got of love 'em, but by 5AM, I told them I'll would "see them on the flip side."
    Anywho, my roommate asked if I wanted to go to the mall. Why yes, yes I did! =] I just got paid and I was in the mood to browse around. I don't really like to look if I don't have the money, it can get quite depressing. Haha. =\ So once we head into the mall, the first store that caught our eye was LVL X. Especially since it had the "Everything Must Go" and "All Items: $5, $10, or $15". Who could resist?! Not I, the bargain shopper. It mostly had club wear type things, but a few casual wears. I don't get jazzy very often, but I happen to do the most damage in that store.

Yeah, I'm attempting to model these. 

They didn't look good from a flatten shot.

$7 and $9

$5 each

All of this, including a $15 metallic coat which didn't picture well, came up to about $50. 

   Next, we headed in 5-7-9, no luck. However, Charlotte Russe was having a sale on their bras! Just $5. I was so hyped, sadly, they didn't have my size. No love for the itty-bitty-committee. =[ *sigh* But I did find a nice black clutch for cheap.

$6.99, plus tax

It has a chain attachment, but I doubt I will use it.

    We checked out Target, but no luck there. Lastly, we hit up Rainbow. I headed right to the shoe section. I needed some black boots. Lucky for me, they had a "buy one, get one half off" deal, cause I also found some nice gray boots. The black boots were already marked down, so basically I paid $15 for each pair. Yes! Now my boot collection is basically complete. Thank the Heavens they were closing, cause I would have browsed the clothes and probably did more damage.

Oh the joy of completion!

    Lastly, we made a stop at Zaxby's. Our stomachs were growling! That ends the shopping trip. All-in-all, I think I did pretty well. I got a lot of items and I still have plenty of my pay check left. So it gets an "A" for the day.

Double Dribble! Take It Back Down...
Player, I'm Not Tryna Be Anyone's Rebound.

Yeahhh, so...last week, I was myspace-ing a little. I decided to check out the High School Sweetheart's [HSS] page. Yes! I did, I admit it. Big womp! Haha. Anywho, from his new pictures, I discover he had a girlfriend. They seemed so happy. They made a beautiful couple. It made me think, "I wish I had something like that." I'm thinking, maybe he has put the games aside, finally, and settled down. I won't hate on that. We are cool. Clicked and kept it moving.

Lo and behold, I was just checking out some blogs and I get a text message. Well, lookie who! It was HSS. It read, "When u comin to c me?" Whoa! I haven't heard/seen the dude since last year, literally. Something is up. So I check out his myspace page and the pictures are gone. I assume the relationship is over. Wow. So, now, I guess I'm suppose to be the rebound. I may be singular, but I'm not that lonesome. Haha.

I reply, "That was totally random." He responds with, "I kno." I hope he knows that ish don't fly here anymore. High school, yeah, he probably would of got me. Sadly. *sigh* So now I've been degraded to rebound status... Something must be done here. Haha.

Lesson:

Be careful what you wish for 

cause you just might get it!

Put.Your.Record.On

Girl, Put Your Record On...

...Play Me Your Favorite Song.

   Well, tonight I bring you a snippet of one of my favs. Some of ya'll too young to know about this! Haha. Even I probably shouldn't know about this. =]

This song sounds sweet to the soul! It's the truth. Mannn, I tell you. My Moms and her generation had the BEST music. I mean, I bet the fellas only had to put the needle to this track for their lady and all wrongs would be forgiven. [For the night, at least.] I mean, they would have me at the first "Ohhh I." Haha. =P

  My Moms be hating when my sis or I would know more words to the oldies than she do. Haha. She swears we must have been groovin' in the womb. Probably so. I mean, from how she describes it, when you go to the club you actually dance. "Its a work out, you will be tired but you just keep on dancing." Not dry humping, dancing. Haha. Nah, I know some people still can get it on the floor, but the oldies just make you move. Whether its bobbing your head or swaying the hips a little. You just feel it. Sometimes I want to go to a chill spot where they play the oldies and get down. Who knows I may pull a sugar daddy who'll tell me, "You can have whatever you like." Haha.

That Brings Me To My Financial Report...

   That sugar daddy could surely aid me in some financial aid! So like I mentioned before, I have no idea how I am going to pay for school next semester. I had three options:

1. Apply and get the RA position: Free Housing.

2. Apply to my dream school again. Work hard/submit portfolio for scholarships to get something like or close to a full ride.

3. Stay out of school for a semester and work. (I really don't want to, cause I'm afraid I won't go back.)

   Well, scratch #1 off. I made it to 2/3 rounds for the position. I didn't make it to the third round. Bummerrr. In attempts to not get down, I tried looking on the bright side. I didn't really want to be a RA, but it would of helped financially. I looked up towards the sky. Then I thought, if I would have gotten this job, I would of dropped my dream school. Maybe this is God's way of telling me to try to bring the dream alive and go to SCAD [the dream school.] I've been wanting to go to SCAD for years! When I got pregnant, I dropped the dream to stay close to home, baby definitely came first. Since the miscarriage, I didn't bother to try to go. So maybe its time for me to get back on the grind. Kanye said, "Shoot for the stars so if you fall, you'll land on a cloud." I guess I'll see, look for me in the sky. =]  

Game.Boy.Or.Girl

"I Don't Wanna Be A Player No More..."

Forget that! Who needs boyfriends when you got video games? 

  Today was an "A" day. I was on the super high from Wonka's Chewy Sweet Tarts Minis. I love these things! If you ever want to put a smile on my face, send a pack of these babies my way! I also have been jigging to Lady GaGa. I know it's been out for a while, but eh, I'm lovin it. Her video is highly entertaining, I always catch something crazy each time I watch it! I especially love the line: "Wish I could shut my PlayBoy mouth." Hehe, naughty. Sometimes, I just want music to take away my worries. Let the lyrics fill my mind, the bass replace my heartbeat, and "just dance."

After chillin in the dorm for a while, I decided to head to my Uncle-E's house. I hadn't been there in a while. Made some brownies. My cousin and I got into this ridiculous brawl over who would cut them first. Haha. We were rolling all on the kitchen floor. May I remind you, I baked them! I wish I had the video to show you...then again, maybe not cause I kind of lost. Instead, I bring you the satisfied taste buds of my little cousin. =]

Yes, they were THAT good.

Once I returned to the dorm... 

...I ran into my friend J. She told me to take a peek at who was in the lobby. I didn't want to look, but she refused to tell me. I had a feeling I knew who it was, soon I discovered I was correct. It was The Baller. I tried to make a swift escape before he saw me, but with J. calling after me, I doubt I did it discretely. =\ That kind of put a downer on my spirit, but thanks to my new-found friend Homie-B, they weren't low for long. I promised him some brownies, so once I got to my room, I text him that they were ready. 

   When he arrived, somehow the conversation led to me discovering he was a gamer. He, in fact, had Super Nintendo and Dreamcast in his dorm! My eyes grew wide and I was filled with excitement. Needless to say, I just spent +2 hours, controller in hand. The joy! At my previous college, my homies and I spent endless hours on the PlayStation 2. Thank the Heavens, I have found a new game haven. =] Just in time so I wouldn't let my boy troubles get in my way. For now, gameboy is the only compound word I know that contains the opposite sex. Haha =]
