The many uses of this blog...

Ok so this blog...even if hardly anyone is following it..I plan to use for everything, like a journal, like a shoulder to cry on lol (im serious!), like a reminder of  anything I'm doing, feeling, thinking...umm I'll use it to share my beauty products that i'm liking or disliking at the moment, I'll be posting pics of things I'm buying for myself, I'll prob b posting lots of pics of myself and different looks lol...anyway u get the picture and I'm in no way doing this to brag about anything to put anyone down, to bore u with my life or things of that nature..i'm simply doing this because I'm prob not gonna have anyone to talk to for a while so this website will be my bestfriend and I just want to go back and look at what i was doing at a certain time and just motivate myself or just to give whoever looks at this blog my point of view on certain things...

Starting school...

Well after 3 years of being M.I.A from the school world...I'm finally going back!! I cant believe how much time I wasted...on nothing really the only good thing that happened to me in those 3 years was my baby girl. I've always been aware of the importance of school but theres always been something holding me back from doing what I want to do and I've stopped it..I told myself that I wasnt gonna let anyone or anything keep me away from school this time. So..I kinda have a plan of what i'm gonna do and how i'm gonna do it.
   1. I'm quitting my job--tomorrow the 30th is my last day--I realize how hard its going to be not having a job because I have a really big responsibility which is my daughter but I have some of the best parents in the whole world, they offered to help out in every way they can and until now they have. My baby girl is set anyway, she has everything she needs...even some brand new winter clothes lol but whatever she'll be needing while we go she'll be taken care of. I dont have any big bills to worry about each month so I'm good with that. I hate leaving my job because I've had it for 2.5 years and I've grown so close to my coworkers but can you imagine if we stayed at every job because of our coworkers..we'd never get anywhere. I'll just have to keep in touch with them. = )
    2. Put school first--yes I love going out, I love partying and having a good time...but it has to stop...for now! I know there are going to be times where I desperately need to get out of the books but I am going to be strong and just have to say no because the more I put this off the longer its going to take for me to finish and I really dont want to waste another 3 years because I couldnt say no to parties. Because I know the first time I say "ok I'll go out just this time", its going to ruin it for me because I'm going to want to say that all the time. So I need to keep my head straight...
    3. Study hard--I get distracted very easilly..especially when I have a very hyper 2 year old running around everywhere screaming and laughing..but besides her I have so many other things around me that I can easily just shut my books and start on those other things...like my laptop and being able to get on facebook or youtube lol...I'm just going to have to turn it off and put it away. I dont need any distractions..not while I'm studying anyway. I'll make time for the world..just not while I'm studying. I plan to give each of my classes at least 3 hrs a day and as I go i'll determine whether more or less is needed.
    4. Give it my all--Now when I really want something I go for it without giving up. I want a better future,  not only for myself but for my daughter. I want her to be able to have, I want her to follow her dreams one day too and me be able to fulfill half those dreams for her. She is my motivation for going back to school and for wanting something good for us. I want this, I want the satisfaction of knowing that I was able to finish something I worked so hard for...thats where my dedication comes in.

Well tomorrow the 30th of August is the big day...wish me luck!!

Tito & Jacklyn

Well here goes another blog since I'm in the mood to talk about love. : )
October 10,2009 seemed so far away from February 2008, the month my brother proposed to his (then) girlfriend Jacklyn in Venice, Italy. It is now October 14,2009...4 days after the wedding. It came and went soooo fast. But it was wonderful, beautiful, fun and just everything lol. She was a beautiful bride and he looked very handsome too. They are both beautiful people, inside and out. But there inside beauty is one of a kind, they have great personalities and love everyone around them. My brother has always been a great man but he has become a stronger and better person since he met Jacklyn. She's a great person, I've only known her for almost 2 years and I feel as if I've known her forever. She's great to get along with, she always has a great big smile across her face and she will make a stranger feel like she's known him all her life. Most importantly her and my brother love eachother so much, you can see it in there smiles, in there eyes when they look at eachother, there way of talking to eachother. They are great people and I am very happy for the both of them and really hope that there marriage lasts them a lifetime. I'm glad my brother found a good woman who supports him in all his decisions and guides him towards a good path. The wedding itself was really good. It was a little chilly but the dancing, the beer, wine, and the running around made it ok. I dont think anyone complained. We took plenty of pics. My family looked very nice. My baby looked beautiful in her red dress too. Jacklyn's sister is a great photographer and she was the one taking all the good shots. We finally took family pics and i'm waiting to see those but i'm sure they came out great. We took some great pics at the Funk Booth too. I will post some pics on here when I get a chance. I caught Jacklyn's bouquet! So hopefully it will bring me good luck and I will find a good man someday lol. Honestly, I'm not looking though I am good how I am now...just me and my baby. But....if it happens it happens, right?? Well if i think of anything else i will add to this.

I can smell fall coming in......

I love summer but I've started to like Fall season alot more....I guess its the cool weather, leaves falling, Halloween, Thanksgiving and just all the fall festivals we go to and most of all because my baby gets to enjoy everything this year. Its gonna be so much fun!! Last year was fun but not all that because Sofia was only 9 or 10 months old and she was just learning to walk and well she was still to little to know anything. She probably wont know anything now but I know she'll be more excited about seeing new things. This month we have our Sept. 16 festival in Bryan, then my brother's Stock the Bar party at his house. And, next month we have my brother's wedding, the Mushroom Festival, Halloween, halloween parties and it all starts from there. I love it! Thanksgiving is one of my fave's...because we get our grub on. Then Christmas. Then Sofia's 2nd bday. Then a new year!! WOW. Time is flying. Well I'm gonna try to enjoy this fall and winter with my baby to the fullest. Hey maybe I'll even dress up with Sofia for Halloween this year lol. Well peace out!!

Sofia is 20 months old!!

Only four more months and my baby girl turns 2!! I never believed time would go by this fast. But I can honestly say that I've enjoyed every moment with my daughter since the day she was born, good days and bad she's made my life WONDERFUL! My life is better because of her...without her I was always empty. She's my pride and joy, she's my smile, my heartbeat, my reason for going on. I can talk about her all day and say the greatest things about her but I just couldnt be here all day doing that lol. I love my baby though. I spoil her every chance I get. Of course I try not to spoil her so much and let her know when I dont like something she does or teach her whats wrong and right so hopefully I'm doing good with her and she'll respect me later. She knows when I give her that "look" she needs to stop what she's doing and walk away from getting in trouble lol. She's so sweet too, she loves hugging and giving kisses. She doesnt fight with anyone since she doesnt have anyone to fight with so hopefully she stays that way for a while. She talks so much already, its so cute! I can actually sit there and conversate with her and although some words arent complete I know exactly what she's telling me...its funny. She knows alot though, it amazes me how smart my baby is. I guess talking to her like a normal person has helped alot...meaning I never talked to her in all that baby talk. Dont get me wrong I will play with her and talk to her sweet and do all the baby talking but only when we're playing..when its time to conversate we are square bizz lol. Kids are smart. She's so active. I've seen other kids around her age who dont seem as active as her...and those moms think they have a handful lol, spend a day with Sofia..thats all i gotta say. She's a good girl though, she just never stops..like the energizer bunny. But when 10pm comes around the corner she is knocked out til the next morning....late morning. She had her 18 months check up last week, yea 2 months later lol. She's good though, Dr. said she looked really good and she's still very advanced for her age. She weighed 32.6 lbs and measured 35.75 inches...which is one fourth away from being 3 feet tall....THREE FEET TALL!!! Its unbelievable. She is really tall though. She's now wearing 3T clothes and size 6/7 shoes. She has all the teeth she is supposed to have now lol and her hair is growing so much but its a mess lol. Its growing wild! Thats why in the pics it always looks messy. At least she'll never have to worry about buying volumizing shampoos lol. I dont think she'll be having a 2nd year birthday party, i just have to much stuff going on right now. If I do make something it'll be only family. But God willing that everything is good by then I will make her a lil something...we'll see. i can't wait til fall starts and then winter..i'm so ready!! Peace peeps!
