  • Welcome 2011

    Its Finally Here. 2011. Hello New Year...

    Hello New Me

     

    Its "tradition" for people to make New Year's Resolutions. Some people have stopped because they always break them so much. But I really want to change some things in my life so I made some. I really feel its time for a change for myself. Im excited and I hope I succeed and finish everything...

     

    1) Eating healthy (No fried foods, no pop, no eating after 6pm)

    2) Exercise (Working out 6 days a week for at least 30min) I wan to lose 30lbs by May

    3) Getting my credit RIGHT! (Finallly got a credit card to boost my credit. And I want to make payment plans for the few delinquent things I do have)

    4) Looking for a career (Been at my job for 3yrs and Im tired of it. I want a career! I want to be happy at what I do)

    5) Moving in my own apartment (Will be 27 this yr. Tired of the roomie thing. I wanna walk into my own place and EVERYTHING be my own)

     

     

    I honestly think all these things are obtainable. I hope I dont fall through, or get tired. Im ready for this and Im excited for all these challenges!

  • Dear Future Husband

    As I'm looking on the inside, I see the breaks, tears, and rips. Not sure where they came from. Just knowing they need to be fixed. From guy to guy. Hurt to hurt. I'm beginning to wonder if i'm even fit for this.

    I cant seem to find where I fit right in. Most guys are great when you meet them , but after a few weeks its a new story.

    I know I'm not perfect , but I don't ask for much. I want to be love respected and honored. I need to feel I to matter. Perhaps I'm just a handful. A little too much of one for these guys now days. I demand too much maybe. I've sat back and let a guy control and I lost myself in the middle of it all I promised myself Id never do that again. Its almost like I cant find the perfect guy for me. What seems to be perfect changes in minutes.

    I want to feel happy for the rest of my life. Not because of a guy ,but because i want to be happy. I don't know if you can fully give a guy what he needs or wants , but I know when the time is right prince charming will sweep me off my feet. I can truly say that gifts and flowers don't completely make me happy. I need to find joy in a males emotions. 

    I love so hard when I love a man...

    Dear Man, whoever you are out there. Wherever you are I love you. For I'm your future wife, and I want to marry you. I want to fulfill what it is that you need from a wife. I'd never cheat on you, Id never make you feel uncomfortable. Well at least Id try my hardest. I know there's no such thing as perfection but for you I want to be that.. I want to be that perfect wife. Hopefully one day Ill fill those shoes. I'm into love and fairy tales, but I'm not into a forced one that maybe after all was just in my mind. I guess you sold me thoughts of you that i thought were true. I learned along the way that maybe i don't know all of you. Your an amazing guy, but there's just some things you do that confuses me.    Things that hurt me. You openly do on purpose, and then admit it was dumb. Please don't be sorry with me if your not sorry. I'm woman enuff to accept that you feel different and we don't agree. Its not right to just appease me with those i'm sorry words. I know I fall deep so quickly. Maybe thats bad. I jump in head first so excited because I think i've found the one. But perhaps i'm a fool. I just want God to lead me in the right direction. Dear husband , wherever you are i'm your wife and i cant wait till we meet.love truly my heart and soul....

  • !!! Pest Alert !!!

    As I am single again guys that I talked to before I got in my relationship are now starting to come back and trying their best to "court" me again.

    There was one fellow in particular I wish would LOSE MY NUMBER!

    I talked to him for 4 or 5 mnths and I there were MANY things why we stopped talking. And the biggest was he was wayyy to cheap! Which is one thing I won't tolerate. I'm not cheap at all and I refuse to have α man that is.

    This person lives 45min away from me. He wanted to take me out. I said fine. Let's go to dinner. He pushing on if I can meet him halfway. I said no, you wanna take me out. So pick me up and let's go. He then ask the most craziest question I ever heard from someone trying to take me out.

    He asked, "Can you go half on the gas?"

    I could NOT believe it! I was at work when I received the text and shared it with all my co-workers and they couldn't believe it...even the guys!

    But I wasn't even surprised. I knew he was cheap before...

    Before when we were talking I was unemployed and he got tired of me "not contributing" to the relationship. ie Not paying when we go out. Even though he knew I was broke. One time he went to α restaurant by HIMSELF and then called me and talked to me while he ate cause he didn't want to pay for me!

    So I told him, "Look, how bout I meet you there and I will pay for my own meal and we can just go as friends!"

    He said suuuuure!

    Now he's bugging me to go out wit him again and I don't even want to. My work schedule is so hectic where I can only go out on the weekends really. I'm busy this Sat so I said how bout Sunday? He said well its 45min there and back and I gotta get up in the morning...

    I said, "And! Aint like we goin to be chilling all damn day and night!"

    But he still said no. I'm like "Look, I got some days off mid Jan so holla back then!" Lol

    To me, if you REALLY want to see someone you really goin to try to work around people schedule and try to work it out! He on some other BS and I'm already tired of his ass!




    Maybe he will get the hint. If not, I have NO problem hurting his feelings!

  • *** HUGE Update ***

    Hello My Fellow Xanga's!

    I have been MIA for awhile. Wanted to see what Tumblr was all about but mostly everyone on there just posted pics and not really posted Blogs which I am more in to...

    So α lot has happened in my life.

    1) Decided to take α break from my boyfriend of almost 4yrs. He wasn't working for α very long time and I got tired of having to pay for everything. Thought if I stopped that would encourage him more into finding employment. There was also the long distance I couldn't take anymore and some lies that I defiantly was goin to deal with. I then finally decided that the relationship really wasn't for me. I need to get MYSELF together.

    I want α BETTER PAYING job, I'm saving for α car and want my own apartment. Maybe even go back for my Masters.

    I just felt he was holding me back because I was really waiting to move there so I could go back to school. I just got tired of waiting and felt the relationship wasn't goin anywhere.

    It was α very hard decision but I had to make it.

    2) For the last 6mnths I have been trying to save money to buy another car and I will FINALLY have enough in 2 weeks! Very excited! It will be another used one but anything is better than my 21yr old Buick Lasabre!

    3) I have FINALLY been approved for α credit card! Its from α department store and I'm excited! The only reason I wanted one was to boost my credit. It was very hard when I was trying to get financed for α car because I have no credit. No car, no house, never rented, no credit cards...NOTHING! Which is great but not really as I'm getting older and want "grown-up" things! But now I'm on my way! :)

    I have been really staying busy. Working 60+ hrs α week...mostly to save for my car.

    Been eating healthy and working out like crazy. Very obsessed with Jillian Michael's DVD's right now! She's great!

    Hope to talk to u all soon!

  • You Aint Got To Lie To Kick It

    Ive been hanging with a new friend. Met her from another friend. She is very cool...kinda bossy but cool. She has a new guy that she is getting close to. He's from Chicago but living here in Michigan right now. She knows my man lives there and Im planning to move there soon.

    Recently, she has grown this...OBESSION with Chicago. I dont know where it came from! Right now she is in school for Nursing. Shes talking about she is looking at schools in Chicago. She is telling me once I move there she wants to sleep on my man and I couch and she will give us money. She said she is even thinking about getting a job there just for the summer and staying with me. She has planned a trip to go to the Chi in September to celebrate other friends birthday and talking about "We going to run Chicago!" Ummm what?!?!

    Lol This gurl has gone NUTS! And the weird part is she never said if her man is coming back to Chicago. He has his job here in MI where he is a truck driver....so why are you going to move to Chicago if yo man here? I just dont understand...

    And the WEIRDEST PART? She just got a Twitter page. She has LIED on her page...said she is from Chicago and in her tweets she is saying how is she in Chicago...fighting Chicago morning rush hour...that she is coming to Detroit to hang with friends and she is back in CHicago...Im like WTF!!! WHY DO YOU HAVE TO LIE!

    I texted and asked her why she is lieing on Twitter. She texts back that she dont what people to know where she lives? :/

    So I asked her again and she tweets me back saying to keep it on the low and I know how she loves the Chi and let her to her. She doesnt claim Detroit. She claims Chicago.

    I dont get it. Im so confused. lol This is soooooo weird to me. She sounds like SUCH a lame that she has to lie about the city that shes in! She knows nothing about Chicago. Prob be there couples times. And now shes obsessed because? I dont know...

    Im going to let her do her...she looks like a fool...but...whatever man...

     

     

    Final weird thing: Her Twitter name is ChiTown2Florida

    LMAO WTF!

  • Long Time, No Read

    Long time since I blogged. Lots have been happening...unfortunatly, not in a good way...

    Im supposed to move to Chicago next month but I have been having SERIOUS car trouble. In the past 3 weeks I have put $500 into my car and my mechanic is STILL trying to fix it...its just an old car. 1990 Buick Lasabre. It has lots of problems. Ive had it for 2yrs and thats my baby. Her name is Beatrice and she is ALL I have. Shes my money maker. I basically just drive her to and from work and go out every once in a while on the weekends.

    I dont even go on the freeways because I dont want to put too much pressure on her. I basically take the streets everywhere I go. Which is fine with me because I have had a terrible fear of semi-trucks for a very long time...and they are mostly on the freeways lol

    I told myself this is the LAST time Im going to put money in my car. Its old and I really need to let her rest. I tried to get a loan from a Credit Union and they denied me! Said I had some delinquency on my credit report. So I went on there and looked...I had ONE thing...something from 08 that JUST reported to my credit July 1st (So I was even more pissed) and it was from checking acct I had overdrawn and never paid. I was like are u serious? My score is 671 also! Come on!

    But I think the main thing was I told have hardly anything on my credit report...no mortgages, no rent, no car payments, no credit cards...only thing I have is my student loan. So I guessed that was really the reason. But, they said I couldnt even get a damn co-signer either! Ugh!!!

    So Im going to pay off the the overdrawn checking acct and Im applied for a credit card with Ashley Stewart. My co-worker told me to do this rather than a reg crdit card because at least stores dont have annual/monthly fees. So I hope I get approved...crosses fingers!

    Im very bummed with my car. This is the ONLY thing I have. Before I had my car, my parents and my sisters were taking me to and from work and they gave me HELL about taking me to work...they cussed me out everyday. Argued with me of when I was going to get a car until I got so DESPERATE I went and got anything I could for $1100. So I went for a 20yr old and 2yrs later its through! And Im back in the same position...

    Ive cried and I cant sleep now because Im so nervous my mechanic wont be able to fix WHATEVER it is thats wrong (When im driving it keeps turning off).

    All I can do is pray.

    But in the meantime, I will be saving money. Hopefully $3000 and Im going to go to a dealership and hopfully I will have my credit card and buying things and paying it off to increase my credit score even more so I can get a GREAT car!

  • The Cat Is Out The Bag

    So my sister put it upon herself to be the spokeswoman of Kristen. She went right out and told my mom that I'm moving to Chicago.

    I haven't told my parents this because I was goin to sit both my parents down and tell them myself!

    After she told her, my mom rushed in my room and yelled if I'm moving. I said yes and she said that I'm making a dumb choice but I'm grown!

    I really don't see what the big deal is. I'm moving to be closer to the man I love, goin to school and working! What's wrong wit that!

    I know none of the kids has ever moved away, but this is something she will need to deal with.

  • Stratch That Last One

    So I thought about it. Having the B-Day party on the boat is getting expensive. I want a $100 - $150 dress, hair, nails, make-up, and feet done, new shoes and accessories, birthday cake, and not even taking about the boat ticket and drinks that night….the $$$ is getting pretty high.

    I also just decided I am moving to Chicago Aug 21st….and I need to sell my car before. It really needs struds which is $650 and I really can’t afford that. And I don’t want to go on a 5hr car ride with the car jumping up and down like crazy. So I am going to try to sell my car for AT LEAST $1000 (It’s a Burgundy 1990 Buick Lasabre…put at least $2000 into it already. Only thing it needs is struds. Just got a tune-up and oil change this past weekend so if you in the Detroit area or know someone who needs a car let me know. Or if you want to drive to come and see it let me know. Her name is Beatrice!) and use that to get another car…which I have to save for. I will try to get something that’s at least a 2000 and pay between $2500 - $3000.

    So Big Boat Birthday Bash “Bye Bye”. Maybe another yr because I got to get more important stuff together.

    I still believe I’m going to have a great birthday. My boyfriend is still going to come down. I REALLY think it’s just going to be me and him. I want to take him to this nice Jazz Club I love. It also has some great food and great drinks and we can go back to the room and have some great you-know-what! Hahahaha

    Its so funny how I went from a big birthday party to just a nice dinner for 2. I’m still excited. And blessed to see another yr!
