Song of the day: Mariah Carey "H.A.T.E.U."
Mariah Carey "H.A.T.E.U." from her latest studio album Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel. The song's acronym stands for "Having a typical emotional upset" and its simply beautiful. I feel her album but it was overlooked and it deserves a lot more credit and recognition than it has received. I love Mariah and yes I'm a lamb.

child's play
Break up to makeup is for children. Playing with someone's emotions because you don't have yourself together is something found common in grade school not when you are older and should have matured. If there is a problem in your life whether with your job, relationship, friendship, or tasks to complete you don't just quit when the going gets rough. My boss looked at me wrong and promoted 'so-and-so' over me so I QUIT. Me and my significant other got into a fight and he hurt me feelings so ITS OVER. My close friend said something I don't agree with and they are out to get me like everyone else so I CUT THEM OFF. The reason why I say these actions are child's play because as a child you are unaware of the concepts of reasoning, discussing your feelings, working past disagreements, and forgiving and forgetting.
At work you don't quit a job just because something does not go your way. Especially is this job is your only means of finances and you can't afford to quit. Search for a job and have one already in hand before sending in your two weeks to management. Make a list of pros and cons for remaining with that company before making your final decision.
In relationships always remember that one argument does not mean it's over. You will fight, disagree, hate each other, want to smack them, and all of the above. Nothing is perfect and don't expect it to be. Love is not meant to be easy because if it was everyone would be in relationships. Love is hard and it takes time. You have to communicate and talk about your issues. What is making you sad, what you don't like, what needs to change. How will that person know what is bothering you and what is effecting your relationship if you do not discuss these things with them.
In friendships you have different levels of people in your life. BFFs, Friends, Frienemies, associates, and people you just smile and say hello to when you see them. You have to seperate people into these categories in order to know what to expect from certain people. You can't expect your frienemie to be over heels happy for you when you tell them your boyfriend/girlfriend is amazing and you are so in love. You can't expect an associate to care about your problems and give advice. You can expect you BFF to be there for you when you need them through good times and bad. Good times when you love this person and consider them family. Bad times when you don't even know why you associate yourself with that person.
By all means if a certain person in your life is not adding anything but drama and uneeded stress then you need to cut them off. Never settle for anything and this is for jobs, friendships, and relationships. You deserve someone in your life that will make you happy and is worth your time. But realize who is worth keeping around and who isn't. Don't think the world is out to get it. It's possible for someone to actually care about you and as an adult you should realize that. Leave child's play for the children and grow up.

Fabulous Hair Journey
I'm not sure if I'm going to blog on here about my hair journey or not. Matter of fact I'm won't but I just wanted to get things down before joining the various hair care communities and forums online. I'm a Black woman with natural hair and I am partaking along with many Black women in healthy hair care. The major misconception is that Black women cannot "grow" hair. There is no such thing as growing hair. All women of all races grow 0.5 inches per month which equals 6 inches a year. The main problem is the amount of grease, lack of washing, and heat used for many Black women. Petroleum and Mineral Oil are terrible for our hair. We need moisturizers not oils, water, alcohol, and petroleum. The amount of heat should not be used and the type of relaxers. I encourage every woman to visit longhaircareforum.com keepitsimplesista.blogspot.com for general hair care tips and advice. They have women whose hair is down to their waist, bra stap, and arm pit lengths. Beautiful and healthy hair is attainable with a change of lifestyle and a few steps.
People are already saying I am crazy for planning to wash my hair every week and conditioning wash twice a week but this will work when I have flowing healthy hair down my back they can shut their faces.
Last night I took out my sew-in weave which is my natural hair in cornrow braids with human hair sewn on top. I'm going to wash my hair with
Creme of Nature (CON) Detangling and Conditioning Shampoo
V05 Moisure Milks Moisuturizing Conditioner in Strawberries and Creme a
and use
Kids Shea Butter Detangling Moisturizing Hair Lotion. I also have Herbal Essense Long Term Relationship Shampoo and Conditioner to try out and Nexxus Clarifying Shampoo.
I will post links to my hair blog when I get that started. I would like to thank a personal friend for the help, advice, and information of getting started.

Happy Independence Day
It doesn't matter whether you were born here in America, immigrated, or still bitter because the actual date that we celebrate Independence Day Black slaves were not free. Either way you are still an citizen (I would hope) of the United States of America and everyday you have freedom you should count your blessings and always give support to the troops. People do not have the same liberties and freedom in other countries. So, in my family we celebrate and go big for the Fourth of July. Despite my endless disagreements with the government and how it conducted itself in the past and currently I am proud to be free.
I think fireworks are so romantic. Mike (My boyfriend) came over to my house today for my family's annual cookout and Fourth of July celebration. Me and my Dad travel to Canton, Ohio every year to Phantom Fireworks to put on a show! It's so much fun and we lit up the entire neighborhood. Who needs to work through busy crowds and traffic when you have the best show right in your backyard. Granted its costly but completely worth it. I was bitter and upset about the holidays earlier but I got over it. I have no idea why it's easier to blog on here instead of updating my private livejournal.
I love this song by Mariah Carey and I listen to it year round and not just around the fourth of July. It's so beautiful and its Mariah so it's fabulous from her Butterfly album. It's actually one of my top two Mariah Carey songs of all time.
I hope everyone had a safe Independence Day.
