I Hate Being Pregnant

If you know me, you know that I can be a bit of a brat. I love my freedom, sushi, a good cocktail, and of course travel. However; this isn’t me saying that I’m upset about not being able to go to Bali this winter, or the fact that I can’t even take the edge off my day by having cocktails and sushi with friends. This is me stating that: Every pregnancy is different, and every woman has the GOD GIVEN right to experience it differently. For the women who are unable to have children, or who struggles Read more [...]

I Think I’ve Found The “Flu Shot” For Heartbreak

There are so many blogs, podcast, songs, and books that talk about love. They give advice from how to fall in love to how to get over a heartbreak.

If it worked, if there was a "cure" for love, everyone would be drinking the KoolAid. Love to me is like the Flu. You have flu shots for preventative measures and you have medicine for healing.

Sticks and Stones May Break My Bones, but Words Can Destroy

It's not often that I say my Parents "Taught" me something that was wrong. For the most part, if anything, my parents definitely taught me the right way to live, they just might have not SHOWN me the correct way all the time. As I was eating lunch I saw a group of kids playing. The way they were speaking to each other was painful. They were so young and yet they spewed out so much negativity and hatred for each other. I thought to myself, "Some of these words will have a lasting effect on some of Read more [...]

If Looks Could Kill, What Kind of Murderer Would You Be?

Typically, when someone says "If Looks Could Kill," they are talking about someone's physical attributes. That perfectly created masterpiece of a human specimen is so mesmerizing, that their looks could literally stop our hearts. However, there are so many other looks that could kill in a far more painful way. Here are three that I thought of. Could you think of more? Disappointment: Here I was in the fifth grade, "bushy-tailed and bright eyed" as they say, and his name was Andre. Copper toned Read more [...]
