A Lil bit of everything
I haven't posted in a while. MAN it's hard to keep it up though, where do people find the time to post every single day?
Well the semester has started and I'm definitely slammed with things to do already. Some great things are happening though! I am now part of Fashion Group International which is basically a group for people in the industry. Every month there are cocktail parties, lectures from head honchos, shows etc. So I'm pretty pumped about that one. Plus it's basically networking so I'll be meeting lots of new peeps. Also I am really ready to get out of the Big D, I mean all my besties are here and my family but I have to leave. I need a change of scenery, my own life. I know I have one but it's time for something new, scary, and exciting. One of my professors is helping me with this quest. I will start applying for jobs outside of Texas very soon and hopefully something will come of it! I owe this woman so much even if I don't, she is amazing and I am very lucky to have had her and all her help.
I am still working at Buffalo Exchange, things are nutty right now. We are short 5-8 employees, but the good thing is that now that school is back we aren't as busy. Halloween is coming up though so it might be insane. I am in charge of our marketing/pr for Halloween, YAY. I really need to get going on that one. ALSO I could really use some suggestions for a GREAT costume!
Today is my little sisters birthday, so I have to get back to making her FUNFETTI CAKE! But what to do with the rest of my day off...

Kitteh's gettin old.
I celebrated my 24th birthday this weekend...what I thought would be depressing times, turned out to be FUN TYMZ!
Saturday I was surprised with tickets to the Cowboys vs. 49er's game. Now I'm not a fan of pro football, but I do enjoy going to games. We had great seats and gulped down $8 16oz beers. After leaving the game L-Nast came to my house with the following
Chippendale's deck of cards
cheap vodka that looked expensive
fire fly vodka? (sweet tea & vodka mixed together??? scarrry)
500 days of summer soundtrack
good times were had y'all. We played drinking games and I was VERY wasted. We then proceeded to have a 2 person dance party in my living room! Yesh, I am 24.
Sunday I was off...rare occasion so what did I do?? NOTHING...well a little bit of nothing. Lunch with parents, dinner with friends....
Here are dinner pics that I took with my new camera.

My one true love.
So there is this one Amy Winehouse song called Addicted and it's about being addicted to drugs. No pals that's not my true love. If you switch the words around with my favorite designers, styles and shoes it would be the perfect song! I am in love with clothing and accessories for life. I know how extremely lame that sounds but I love the art of design, construction and hardware. And if you know me well you know that I like to dress flashy y'all!
So my next big purchase?!?!??!?! A BEAUTIFUL Chanel raincoat. It's navy with a chain drawstring belt. It looks especially cute with the sleeves rolled up. I tried to find a picture online but no luck so after I get it I will post. Technically this is baby #2. Baby #1...Chanel pumps :)
"You've got me addicted...that's more than any dick did"
BEST. LYRIC. EVER.

Blaby you a hot mess
First off I think I'm in a permanant state of jungle fever...but it's not overruling any other race. I just am more attracted to some beautiful black men than when I was younger. So with that said I'm moving on to something totally different.
At my job we see allllll the crazies! So the other day this gay black man walked into the store and yelled "It smells like ORIENTALS in here". UHHHH hello awkward silence. The store was packed, it was Sunday afternoon I think. Seriously everyone stopped and looked around to see if there were any "Orientals". WTF who says that?? A crazy drag queen, that's who. It was kind of funny though I had to duck behind the counter and giggle a bit.

Things that make my dog go POOP...Tuna!
Not really Tuna the food....OK so this is what happened.
Yesterday I was on the interweb, when all of the sudden my pup started to yelp over and over. When I went to touch him he got even louder :( so naturally I freaked out. He wouldn't walk, move anything! He just stayed in this really awkward position. Tuna was about to go out walking and she said she would stop by on her way and check Boweezie out. When she got here he was still acting the same way so she checked out his legs and his belly just by pushing on it. I called the vet just to make sure it wasn't anything major, and while I was on the phone BAM back to his old self. Tuna took him outside, he pooped a little and it was allllll good. My baby was constipated!

It's Thursday beetches!
So when I got up this morning I was running late to make a visit to Craig Muller designs and Sonrise. I googled how to get there and you know my lapytopy told me there was traffic (45 min worth). I got dressed super speedy and was out the door.
GOOGLE FAIL...no traffic at all, I got there WAY before my appointment time. It wasn't a huge deal but whatever. Anyways I got to visit the designers manufacturer which is all local so that was pretty cool. I met the president and talked with her for a while and she told me to call her when I graduate if I was interested in product development as a career. So that's that...nothing too exciting.
On my way home I tried to find this giant Goodwill that's kind of in the hood but I had no luck....you know I love me some thrift store finds.
So far this week has been pretty exciting. Monday night one of my homies was feeling down so we got drunk, went out, danced and then made chicken salad! success. Hmmmm lets see, got super hai the other night and talked about dumb shit with another friend. annnnd that's my life at the moment. Not complaining though. I love my life now. In fact I think I might start drinking some Red Stripes I just bought and finish making Tila's awesome CD!! You are gonna love it hoe!
Everyone should listen to The Knife.

L's thoughts...
So-
I went to UPTOWN Gold's the other day (4/1, no i'm not april fooling ya), and it was chock-full of douches. It hasn't been that busy since mid-January (you know, all the stupid resolutioners). It's like everyone realized, WOW, it's APRIL, I better start getting ready for summer. We are talking douche men who's muscles are so effing huge it looks like their skin is going to, like, EXPLODE... I'm sure the skin around their _______ is fine though.
I am a pretty confident person- but when I walk into uptown Gold's in April, I suddenly feel-------- HUGE and pale, and my hair is definitely not blond enough. Oh and I have a panty-line straight outta hell. How do the other girls have NO panty line at all? Doesn't make sense to me--commando at the gym is NOT happening for me.
I also don't understand how half the people aren't even breaking a sweat. Isn't that how you build muscle and burn calories? SWEATING??? If I come out of the gym looking just as pale and dry as I did going in--- I consider gym trip--->FAIL.
YESTERDAY I went to a different Gold's location.... Now, as noted before, I often look stupid at the gym-- panty lines, ankle socks that aren't quite invisible etc. BUT I DO NOT look like an effing IDIOT: Yesterday this girl was wearing a TYE DYE SHIRT with like smiley faces and church camp garble on it, shorts, some ratty tennis shoes and..... tall green and red socks scrunched down with CHRISTMAS tress on on them... SERIOUSLY???
Now on to DATE TIPS:
Until about 2 months ago I had literally been on like 2 dates in my entire life. SOMEHOW--- luck i guess--- I've been going on lots of dates lately and I'd like to share some things I've learned (these apply to the first 1-3 dates):
Dating Tip #1: ALWAYS DRINK ALCOHOL--- I went on a date Sunday evening and I'd been hungover all weekend and really didn't feel like drinking, so of course my date didn't either. The whole thing was extremely awful and I partially blame it on the (lack of) alcohol. 1. It gives you something to do with your hands 2. It gives you something to do during awk silence 3. it relaxes you a little bit.
Dating Tip #2: NEVER DRINK TOO MUCH ALCOHOL--- He got wasted, I drove his 100 foot high truck home, he pissed in my apartment parking lot, I haven't talked to him since then, nuff said!
Dating Tip #3: Ok- so, clearly, I haven't been on THAT many dates, so that's really all I have. I guess- HAVE FUN. The worst that will happen is you never see each other again.

Sittin up in my room like Brandy
OK so the idea of this blog was GRRRREEEAT at first but then I was super busy with projects and Karla just didn't do shit with it so BIG FAIL!! So lets catch up a bit. Finished my first semester back at school! HOLLER. It was so long and tons of work but ooohhh well. I finally found a job and got an internship and now it's the middle of summer. Fucking hot too.
Karla would contribute right now but she's lookin like she took some blows to the face East Dallas style. I think she might be doped up too.....
Something that we wanted to do was let our friends write little bits for the blog and we had started with L but I never posted her shizz. So here we go yo.
Some pics for catching up too.

This is Sunday... AKA funday.... well not really, this kitteh woke up at 1pm (holla) and was completely worthless til about 6pm when we decided to hit up the Tom Thumb and buy 40 oz beers (bud ice, i love you). Our fren was celebrating his bday with tequila shots and lots of meat(cookout of course). Our fren Dj is a bomb.com filmaker, anywho we watched his film "VaNpires" that was filmed in the promised land, also known as Denton Tejas. We boozed, we laughed, made fun of minors, watched movies, and gained about 10 lbs each doing it. The food was amazing, I ate like a pregnant woman (throw up) and now i shall go to bed... alone...KthxBia
"The only meat you need in your life ladies, is the one you can put hot sauce on" Real.Talk...
