Memoirs of a Good Weekend

   
   Hello beautiful people! How are y'all doing today? In case you haven't noticed, someone is in a fab mood today ^_^. I had a great weekend- good food, good people, great stuff (nasty weather though). I'll give you the highlights.. mostly. The weekend started on Thursday for me, visited some friends who live an hour away from my city. It was snowing cats and dogs! but I got there in one piece. We did our manicure :D and made some delish pizza :D and caught up on life and American Idol. There were a lot of laughs about Nicki Minaj's Nicknaming. Got back home Friday evening and caught up with my friends at Seattle Grace Hospital ( Its from a TV show- Grey's Anatomy).
     I had movie night Saturday, finally saw Life of Pi. Beautiful visuals. Loved the Bengal tiger, I can't wait till animals and humans get to live together (Isaiah 65:25). Then that mind boggling ending (SPOILER ALERT), I do not want to believe that Richard Parker was his way of blocking what really happened. I actually stayed up all night picturing his second story where the Zebra was the sailor, the orangutan his mother, the hyena the cook and he, the Bengal tiger. I'd rather believe that it was just him and the animals on the boat. Well, if you haven't seen Life of Pi, you should, its really good and then you'd understand all his rambling better. Ohh and I watched the Togo-Algeria match with some friends, I thought it was a bit slow, hopefully as the competition progresses, we'll get more action. But it was still great!
   I learned an important lesson about forgiveness this weekend too. Its important, for your health, your peace of mind and your relationship with God. I know this might sound cliche, but someone you haven't forgiven has control over you and I don't know about you but I like to have control over myself and not have the mere sight of someone piss me off every time. I'd rather be indifferent *shrugs*. Also, one question, I'd like to know your opinion (if anyone's reading this, lol) sound off in the comments below ''Do you think looking back at the past is healthy?'' I think its got pros and cons, like it helps you see how much you've grown and how much you've been blessed and how much you've learned from life. It can also be unhealthy, if you let the past obstruct your future kinda like looking at the rear view mirror too often while driving and neglecting looking ahead. I'd really like to know what y'all think.
     And now, the best part, :) PHOTOS! Enjoy!

Its winter wonderland

Week In Review

Hello guys!
 I hope you all had a great week. I personally did not have one of the best weeks, so many mood swings, it was quite dizzying. But nothing like family and friends to help you count your blessings and I'm finally looking forward to the holiday (yup I've got a break for two weeks). I'm hoping to be able to share some photos and fun experiences on here.  I discovered I like Florence and the machine just recently. The funny thing thing about me is that I like songs and artists at my own time, its ridiculous. Starting the new week with a fresh attitude and happiness.
 Took a few photos this week as well and reconnected with some friends. There has been weight gain too!! :D.



 These are some of the photos. I've been analyzing some stuff lately as well, basically I've got too much time on my hands. But its some pretty cool stuff I think and I'll let you all know as soon as I've got it all figured out. I'm also considering making serious travel plans for the summer, but we'll see. One important thing I learned this week though is that ''You're in control of how you feel and you should make the decision to be happy'' ( It spares you stress lines ;)).
 That's all folks! Have a great week and talk to you soon xx

Life So Far...

HEY Guys!!!
   It has been ages!!! Wow. I literally abandoned this blog.. I didn't forget about it though, I just abandoned it. I had to focus on other things and writing was becoming more of a chore for some reason (Forget all the grammar, it was a major case of writer's block plus being too busy to actually think). But, I'm back. A lot has changed, there's been a lot of growth and experiences. I discovered that I can't share experiences on the internet generally because I feel like everything is so private and should be kept to oneself, but the new plan is to share a little more, not that a ton of people would be interested in my random thoughts and experiences but I'll try all the same.
   The highlights that you all have missed so far include school, exams, shopping, food, tumblr-ing and a lot of series. For those of you who want to try new series, I suggest Deception, The Carrie Diaries (if you liked Sex and the City), The Lying game, Revenge. Series are my best buddies these days. And, I have a new tumblr leaopardprintsandstripes.tumblr.com <---Please check it out. Oh and I'm falling in love with photography and pictures so there might be a bit of that, you know a picture is worth a thousand words. So on the blog, there'll be a bunch of stuff: pictures I've taken (I'm not a photographer, its just a hobby), songs I like, poems, experiences and just stuff.
  The whole point of this post is to say that I'm back and I will be thinking of this blog a lot and posting more and sharing more. I hope you're all well xx
