Nights Out

You know, it’s about getting out there and having a good time. Not about worrying – all these young books for women are like I’m 29 with a closet full of Prada shoes and I can’t get a date. Come on.

The Power Of Saying No

Often times we neglect ourselves to serve the wants and needs of others. Usually to our detriment emotionally and physically. Over the months, I have learned some harsh lessons. The most important of these was when to say no.

Their Expectation Isn’t Your Obligation

A Memorable Summer

Recently, I went out of my comfort zone. I participated in the Blogger & Vlogger Network’s (BVN) Collaboration Challenge! To my delight, I was paired with the multi-talented Kess Crystal from The Glamour Sauce blog. Going through her blog and Flickr stream, I discovered that Kess is a great writer and photographer. Every one of her photos tells a story. She fills the scene with her exquisite compositions. Kess’ ability to capture various emotions through her photography is a thing of beauty. Many thanks to Kess Crystal and the Blogger & Vlogger Network for this fun challenge.

Retrocede

“If you’re treated a certain way you become a certain kind of person. If certain things are described to you as being real they’re real for you whether they’re real or not.”
