DISCLAIMER: THE FOLLOWING ARE REAL PEOPLE ALL OF WHOM I KNOW EXCEPT 3. I HAVE BLURRED THE FACES TO PROTECT THE NOT SO INNOCENT IF ANY ONE IS OFFENDED...
BUILD A BRIDGE AND GET OVER IT :)
As of lately I have noticed what I consider a fad to not be going away.
(I now notice boys trying to look like Jesus and that is the new thing, but that is a whole other blog.)
The fads I want to address are both in a way sexually ambiguous.
“emo” boy hair – yes I know that to have this hair will not make you “emo” in fact I hate that word, but for you to understand what I mean I need to use that word.
This hair is everywhere I look. I thought it would go away, but it has not.
Listen boys I want to see your face; I would like to see your eyes.
I had a friend who had this hair and on a whim went bald.
I had never noticed what beautiful eyes he had until he got rid of the hair.
Now I guess there was a time and a place when that hair was ok, but I promise it is over rover.
I love long hair on some people but long all in the face is just not cute.
I mean do you realize you kind of look like THIS.
ONCE AGAIN- NOT CUTE
There are so many more attractive looks to choose from. I mean you don’t have to go with the fashion, make your own fashion.
And you girls who find this uber attractive, well I will just pray for you.
The second thing I want to address usally goes hand in hand with the prior offenders.
Tight jeans,girl jeans on boys, skinny pants, skinny jeans, the painted on look.Whatever you want to call it that is fine. What I choose to call them is-WRONG. I mean slim cut pants are fine for guys and I prefer them to big baggy ones. However when I can see the veins that are in your 'eh, legs then they are just too tight.
Besides the fact that they usually make you look like you are walking with a stick up your rear, it can cause health issues.
One if which I am sure all you boys would be worried about.
LOW SPERM COUNT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this kid just has it wrong on all the levels.
So gentleman, let me just ask you to please take a cue from this blog and do not commit these crimes of fashion.
Truly Yours

So I am now here in Lake Mary, which is about 15 miles north of Orlando. I am almost all settled in, I still need to go get a few things from the store. My sister and I stayed up for most of the night Friday after I got into town. It was pissing rain so hard when I got here, so I did not even start to unpack until late Saturday morning. We ended up going to the Ikea store and spending a few hours there. I got a pretty nice dresser and had a fun time (ha) putting it all together. Tomorrow are having a few people over and going to chill out by the pool and have a mexican memorial fiesta, including quesadillas and margaritas. Looking forward to this up coming week starting the job I have and looking for another one. We already have plans for next weekend, our friend is djing at some big club in Tampa so we are going over there. I am excited for this summer, I know it is going to be swell. I still feel like I am just visiting my sister at her house and don't really feel like totally at home, but I know that will change.

So as of today I am pretty sure I am moving to Orlando for the summer. My sister is living there and she has an extra room in her apartment,so she really wants me to. I want to as well. I think I will take one class at SCC (would take more,but dont have the money) It seems like it will be pretty easy for me to get a nanny job with the people she knows, but I don't know,I may be able to make more as a server or something. My class starts in June, but i think i will move a week after I get out here. I am almost afraid, that I am going to get down there and just like it so much,I will just want to finish my school there, I think my Mom has the same fear. I hope that while I am there that I will get to experience Orlando further then Disney. I also really hope we get to work on our music while I am there.
I don't really know what will happen and if it will all work out. It has happened SO FAST, and seems a little surreal. I am just taking this all one step at a time. One thing I know is that it seems like I will be seeing Ladytron right after I move there.

today i put in my resignation and 2 week notice at the daycare. i have been there for 3 years and it was a HARD decision to make, but i made it.
since september i have had a new director and I do like her alot, but i just dont feel comfortable there anymore. i love those kids so much but I drive 30 mins to get there and only get7.50hr and i get about 12 hours per week.
I sent home letters with the kids this morning and i had 2 moms talk to me with tears in their eyes telling me they "did not know how they would handle without me there"
life is a book and we have to constantly turn the pages of the book, but sometime it is a little harder to move on to the next chapter. i dont have another job as of today, but I dont feel like i can really even look for one while i am at the daycare. with school,work, and my volunteer work i just dont have time. time time time. that always seems to creep into the conversation. we have to take all the moments we are given and truly live them. we are not promised a single moments past the one we are living in right now. I am trying to get my plans for spring break finalized. I really am not sure what direction it is going to go in, but i know one thing, i am getting out of this town and going somewhere. It is not like a ever need a reason to travel, but spring break is definitely a good one. I

The past few days I have been trying to hold in my anger and sadness about the following situation, but it is just gotten out of hand.
If you don't know that I left large parts of my heart in Kenya then we have not talked enough and that needs to change.
Over the past few days I have been online and hearing some talk radio about the crisis that is going on in Kenya, however still I have yet to hear a single thing about it on the TV. I watch news on a regular basis and yes I could have missed it, but I doubt it.
All it seems that this spoiled brat country of ours (which I am proud to be from) cares about is: Britney, Primarys, and what load of bull Pat Robertson has been saying.
There is major unrest in the usually peaceful country of Kenya. I really cant go into it all because to tell the truth I get to hyped up about it all, but in short here it is.
Dec 27th the election for president was held. The sitting president Kibaki won by a small margin. Kenya is made up of 47 different tribes, all of which until lately, seemingly got along. The forerunner for President Odinga and his tribe have begun an uprising against President Kibaki and his tribe the Kikuyu. It does appear that the election may have been tampered with, but the reaction the Luo people have taken is not rational and will accomplish nothing. Over 300 people have been killed at this point, in a type of ethnic cleansing, which is oddly reminiscent of the start of the war in Rwanda.
I know that you hear all of this and think, so what how does this affect me and what can I do.
Well I promise it affects you a whole lot more than you know. You have to remember we are all in this thing together. As far as what you can do, right now all I can say is pray and mean it.
I hope that id does not, but it may come to a point we need to write our leaders and encourage them to stay by Kenya's side, even if it seems it is crumbling.
Also we must realize how sick and corrupt our media is.
I guess since it is just a bunch of black people killing each other AGAIN, it must not be worthy of any attention.
it sounds like a bad jok "how many deaths have to happen before it appears on the nightly news?"
here our a few websites if you would like to learn more about what is going on.

in the next month i am going to have to make some pretty serious decisions. decisions i did not think i would need to make so suddenly.
life has been throwing some things my way and i need to figure out what i am going to do with them. i have become a bit separated from society and feel bad about it and wish to apologize, however i know it is all for the best right now.
like i said there are going to be some big decisions i need to make so, if you pray it would be great if you sent some my direction.
on another note, i am going to tally tomorrow evening to see Black Kids play. i cant wait it has been a while since i have seen Dawn and Ali and the guys.
i went and got their Rolling Stone issue yesterday. it is so out of this world. i wish them all the luck and look forward to heading to London sometime in March to be with them.
i have two test tomorrow. jajkhfjghjrgrhjnjburv thats how i feel about that.

The birth of a bad boy!
Talk about foreshadowing….
In August, Shia LaBeouf told In Style magazine, “I’m a big fan of PerezHilton.com and TMZ.com. I’d hate to be on those sites, but I can’t stop reading them.”
Oops! It’s happened!
The Transformers hottie has joined the illustrious club of Hollywood stars gone wild this year.
Lindsay, Paris, Nicole, Britney and now Shia!
LaBeouf was arrested at a Walgreens in Chicago at around 2:30 a.m. Sunday morning for allegedly refusing to leave the premises.
A security guard observed Shia to be drunk and summoned police after LaBeouf refused several commands to leave the store.
And why should he??? Walgreens is where it’s at!!

so things right now in my life are constantly unsure. i guess that is how it is for most people, but right now mine is just getting out of hand.
i don't know, i guess i just hate this unplanned unorganized feeling i am having. the things i have had planned and organized, well those plans are just seemingly falling to pieces.
i don't have time for anyone or anything these days i feel like. i'm thankful that at least my sister and i are so close and we are getting to spend time even if it is just out riding bikes or at the gym.
i really hope that this weather starts to get nicer and nicer. at least that can give me some good feelings.
i really don't some of the thoughts that have been in my head lately. i have heard it called "stinking thinkin" i just have to realize just because something happens or does not happen, does not mean that it can change me.
I know that really doesn't make sense when i write it out, but in my head it does.
there are so many things i feel like i want to do in my life and people always tell me. you have so much time to do that stuff, but for some reason I just dont think i could never have enough time or money or whatever it takes to do all the things i want to do.
i do get peace however from certain Psalms, David looked around saw people doing well when they did not deserve it. So i know i am not alone in this type battle. i guess what i would call a battle of the mind.
what i do know is dolly parton may be one of my favorite people in the world. when i need to be cheered up, i look up videos of here and also her quotes. very smart lady.
"We cannot direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails
Storms make trees take deeper roots.
The way I see it, if you want the rainbow you gotta be willing to put up with the rain
and just because she is adorable.
As the saying goes, “That’s the great thing about a sense of humor and a sex drive, you can't wait to share it with everybody else"

is it possible that two people who have never met can write 2 separate songs that are very much alike. i guess there is nothing new under the sun. i wrote a song a little over a year ago and well there is now this song out that is eerily reminiscent of mine. this song is not from a "big" artist but I heard her on Vh1 you outta know and i about shat my self. i guess we are just 2 girls who went through similar situations.
but it still is really odd.

I have had my heart broken more times and in more ways then most people will ever know, but i have found it is more resilient then i would have ever thought.
and no i am not only talking about the tomfoolery that goes on between people in a "relationship" i am speaking of all types of relationships.
there are certain things i have found in life to be constant: of course there is God, i will never palter on that, but also there is change and the fact that people will always let you down.
i have found in my life as soon as i begin to esteem someone, not long after do i find that they let me down. now this is not always the case. at times you may know from the initiation of a relationship that they are going to disappoint, yet still pursue it.
others sadly, you would have not thought in a million years would let you down. but they do.
this is not a new revelation i have came to, but in recent months people i care for have exacerbated this jaded idea i have in my head.
i don't say all this to try and victimize people or to hold myself in higher regard. i say this because sometimes when taking liquid Loratab at 3 in the morning and it does not help, well it can get to you, but also because it is a truth.
and even though there have came people in and out of my life i may still at times wonder.
could i have been the one to help them
could they have been the one to help me
was he really the one i will always love
do they realize how much i have to give
i would hope that most people ask themselves those questions, but i fear they don't. as time passes i will be able to look back at my life and say "nicole, you loved people ,and yes that sometime was your downfall,but it was always your strength"
i may not always look at life that way and you may even here me say "i hate people" but when it comes down to the root of things people are where you find what matters. not in cars,not in money, not in things.People.
OK this is starting to sound preachy and this is not AT ALL what i wanted it to be so i will end with a few quotes that i love and think apply to this rambling post of mine.
"I see each person who comes into my life as an opportunity to learn something about human nature, and myself. Each person has a lesson to teach me. I try to learn."
"Sticks and stones are hard on bones Aimed with angry art,Words can sting like anything,but silence breaks the heart"
"The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy"
"It is easier to love humanity as a whole than to love ones neighbor"
"Love comes to those who still hope even though they've been disappointed, to those who still believe even though they've been betrayed, to those for whom love still heals, even though they've been hurt before."
"The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy."

i hate that i have been having this weird twinging pain in my stomach lately. i mean i have always had a sensitive stomach, but man this is getting out of hand.
Hairspray was great and lived up to one of my favorite childhood films, the original hairspray.
anywho not much that seems adequate to say here.
hmm....
people rarely surprise me anymore, i feel like they are always going to let you down in one way or another."nothing new under the sun"
I really am sick of people saying one thing and then doing nothing.
Still, life is beautiful and in December I am going to London and paris for a week and new years with 3 of my best friends in the world.
Also,people who have been recently
