Good morning everyone!

It's so nice and chilly outside.  Makes we want a cup of hot cocoa and to sit outside on the patio with a group of lovely friends!

Sorry I have not written in so long!  Almost 6 months!

On my mind today are the KDPhi's, especially the IOTA class at the IOTA chapter.  This cold dreary days reminds me of the time we pledged.  The good ole days!  And of course the rest of the old fogies at the IOTA chapter.  Ok, that's enough sorority stuff for me in one day!

And to all the nice folks I used to chill with, today reminds me of one of those days.  Gosh how I reminisce those awesome fun times!  Good times good times!

Things are so different now, but don't you think I have forgotten, it's just all so long ago...and when surrounded by so many different things and when embraced by the changes in life (and aging), it seems like an eternity has passed by when really it was just yesterday I was still cruising in the hood.  Hehe.  Love it!  But I love things now too!  Wish you all could see although I just don't do much anymore!  My bad.

Hope you all are doing well, know that you are all on my mind, even though we never see each other anymore.

Much love,

J

Who could've asked for a more better family, friends, and BF?

After putting up with my especially grumpy self for quite some time, I was, how should I say - embarassingly surprised at how ugly and selfish my thoughts were.

But you know what?  All of you are great liars!

Thank you all and you know which ones I thank the most!

Recap of the surprise day: Bawling annoyance, beautiful day, meet with his parents over something, meet with some friends to discuss how much I dislike a certain someone when they all played along with the plot, show up to Buca in wife beaters looking dreadful and surprised, T said I looked angry even when surprise (and how did I manage to do that? hehe), sticky stuff in my hair (what you are referring to highfade), awesome gifts, awesome presence of people I care about, Bond and watching my co-worker dance with baseball birthday gear on with sandals (hahha Payne bring on the pain!), and of course back to NY to reminisce the meaning of having people around you whom you love and love you.

Thank you all.

I slept on a bed of roses last night and received roses with rosemerry stems...sigh...along with framed photographs of the two of us...

                                                     (literally)

Recap of yesterday: work, NY, Michaelangelo's, belt, shoes, wash, book, cake, surprise, Crome, Davenport, frames...

                                                     and of course, the bed of roses...=)

In life, you meet all sorts of people that have some kind of affect on you.  Everyone you encounter has issues of their own-no matter the frowns or smiles they carry.  All you can do is try to understand...

But the one thing you learn is this, when issues are at hand, deal with them the way you know how, with moving on as your final goal, no matter how long it takes you to reach that stage.  Never forget the issue.  Either learn and accept or do something about it if you can.  It's the only way you can live the way you want to live.
