Inspirational.

About two weeks ago I was on Facebook and read this post that was very inspiring and ever since then I've been seeing it all over the social media world, so I decided to share it with you guys and I hope that you too find it as inspiring as I did.

A well-known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a $20 bill.  In the room of 200, he asked "Who would like this $20 bill?" Hands started going up.  He said, "I am going to give this $20  to one of you but first, let me do this."  He proceeded to crumple up the $20 bill.  He then asked "Who still wants it..?" Still the hands were up in the air.  "Well," he replied, "What if I do this?" And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe.  He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty.  "Now, who still wants it?" Still the hands went into the air.  "My friends, we have all learned a very valuable lesson.  No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease in value.  It was still worth $20.  Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way.  We may feel as though we are worthless.  But no matter what has happened or what will happen, you never lose your value.  Dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased, you are still priceless to those who do love you.  The worth of our lives comes not in what we do or who we know, but by who we are.  You are special, don't ever forget it."

I think many times in our lives we forget how amazing we are.  When you're constantly dealing with people putting you down or just being negative, or things in our lives always seeming as though they're going wrong, it becomes easy to forget, but we must always remember that we are special and although things may seem like they're always going wrong, it gets better in time!

Beyonce' Lip Syncing?

Ever since Beyonce' sung the National Anthem at the Inauguration, there have been many reports all over the internet and even on t.v. saying that Beyonce' didn't actually sing the National Anthem and that she was lip-syncing.

Okay......

Well let's say she was actually lip-syncing, who cares?

>I read that she didn't have time to practice and that was why she actually had to go through with lip-syncing.
>I read that she initially was supposed to actually sing it and her pre-recording was "just in case."

If you watched the Inauguration, you will see that Kelly Clarkson did a song as well, and the controversy with Beyonce' now has people questioning if Kelly Clarkson was lip-syncing?  And if she was, SO FREAKIN' WHAT!!

These are all things that I read but I honestly don't think that it matters.  We all know that she can sing, extremely well, so why does it matter?  Many singers that lip-sync ONCE get so much backlash with people saying they aren't real artist because they didn't actually sing etc.  Britney Spears has dealt with it, Kanye West, Jennifer Hudson, Whitney Houston, Madonna, Ashlee Simpson, Chris Brown and many more have had backlash for lip-syncing, or have been accused of lip-syncing.

I understand that people want to hear the real thing but we also have to understand that many times these singers don't have time to practice and some of them dance with their routines so it's hard to both dance and sing, so shouldn't we cut them just a little slack? or should we be outraged?

I know some may agree with me and some may not but this is just my opinion.

So what do you all think about this?



Moving Sucks!

Once again I've been M.I.A. and I would like to apologize for that.  I've been packing and moving to our new house and the process sucked.  It was cold and rainy the whole time, the sun only came out for like .2 seconds lol. I don't mind packing, for vacation that is, because that's really exciting, but packing to move is a long process that leaves you tired for days.

After all of that moving I could actually use a vacation, seriously.  But I am liking the new place and the neighborhood.  It's very quiet and reserved and the neighbors are pretty much to themselves---most of them are, there are a couple of extremely nosy ones.


Happy Thursday! 1 more day till the weekend yayy!!!

Justin Timberlake Is Back!!

Happy Sunday!

It's been about 5-6 years since Justin Timberlake made music and honestly we have all been waiting for this moment.  I still listen to his Future, Sex, Love, Sound because that's the most recent album and that's the last one he did before he went on a little hiatus.  I'm a huge fan of his and I am so excited that he is coming back to make another album.  I think that when artists do that (hold off on making music for a couple of years)  it makes us want more and it allows us to realize what great artists they really truly are.

A lot of people have no idea that Justin is dropping new music and that is why I am blogging about it today.

There is less than 3 hours that remain until he drops new music.

Go to countdown.justintimberlake.com to await Justin Timberlake's return!!!

I'm so happy I don't know whether to scream or cry lol

ENJOY!!

Happy Saturday!

Happy Saturday to you all!! Hope you all had an amazing week!

So over the week I ran across some videos on Youtube and I decided I wanted to share them with you all.

The first one is of a little 11 yr old boy who has an amazing voice and his friend who put a little spin on the mega hit We Found Love by Rihanna.  My Mom showed me this video and I instantly fell in love.  I think this kid is great and I hope he makes it one day!!


This next video is so adorable and cute and literally made my heart melt.  It's exactly the reason why I am such a dog lover and hope to have 3 one day in the future.  Many people believe that dogs don't understand what we (the owners) are telling them but I believe that dogs are some of the most intelligent creatures.  I do believe that they understand everything you say.  My family and I have a little 5 year old Shih-Tzu and not too long ago he was going down the wooden stairs and fell down them and has been traumatized ever since so he goes up the carpeted stairs instead (we have 2 sets of stairs) and just recently he started going back up the wooden stairs and we always praise and encourage him because we know how scared he is of them so in a way I can relate to this video.


This next video is absolutely hilarious, in my opinion.  I couldn't help but laugh at the reactions of the people in the video.  I honestly wish I would have thought of something like this because this is ingenious.  And I've just noticed that the guy is a magician which is even cooler!!!


The last video that I am posting today is Ke$ha's C'Mon video.  Not many people like her but I absolutely love her and her music.  It just makes me wanna throw one huge party and dance all night long.  I thought the video was very interesting.  The video was just released yesterday so take a look.



That's it for the videos, I hope you all enjoyed and I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!

What Are Your Thoughts?

Sorry I've been M.I.A. for a couple days, I've just been so busy.

Today's post is about some recent events dealing with Justin Bieber and honestly they are very sickening.  For some odd reason the "Beliebers" also known as Justin Bieber's fans have made a trending topic on twitter call "#CutForBieber."  On this topic there are little girls who are posting pictures of their wrists which they have cut for Justin Bieber and they claim that if he does not stop doing drugs (he's only been reported doing weed) that they would continue to cut themselves.  This is so extremely sad and it makes me sick to my stomach to know that these girls are doing this to themselves.  This may come off as harsh but it is incredibly stupid as well.  I know that they don't like what their "idol" is doing but it's not worth it.  They must understand that he is going to grow up and he's going to do certain things that no one is going to agree with but that is life.  You're never going to make anyone happy.  So girls please please please I beg of you to stop harming yourselves.  This is  not a game, this is not funny, this is serious.  You guys CAN and WILL harm yourselves if you continue.  I've been seeing a lot of people ask "Where are their parents?" but I can almost guarantee these parents have absolutely no idea what their children are doing.  I hope that these young ladies will come to their senses because it's sad to see this happening.

So what do you guys think about this??  Comment below and let me know how you feel about this because I'd like to know some of your thoughts.

Hello Moschino.

I never really noticed Moschino until just recently.  I've heard of it but never gave it my full undivided attention.  Well I ran across the Autumn/Winter 2013-14 collection and I am ABSOLUTELY IN LOVE!!! I just love how everything goes together.  I can't believe I never focused on it before but I see what I've been missing all along.  They will definitely be getting some purchases from me sometime in the near future.  Some of the outfits remind me of Wednesday from The Addams Family with just a little twist, whether it be the shoes or the handbags that gave it that certain "POP."  There were about 4 or 5 outfits on there that I want right now at this very moment lol.  I've posted a couple of pics from the collection below. If you like Moschino or want to see what Moschino looks like check out the two links that I'll be posting those below as well.

How Cool Are These?

I get so fascinated by little things but these things are super cool and I would definitely invest in most of them lol.


Underground Parking 
This is so freaking awesome and it looks like it may be super expensive but who cares. I'll take 5 haha

Spiral Wine Cellar
This is so convenient, for those of you who are wine lovers.  Even though you would need a lot of wine to fill this up, it's still really cool and what makes it even better is the fact that it can be placed anywhere in your house.  You could probably place an entrance to the basement from here too.

Beer Shot Glass
This one is for my beer lovers out there......who also like to take shots.  Well now you can do both by taking shots of beer OR just drinking beer normally.  This glass is really cool though.

Dining Pull Out Table with Pull Out Seats
This is another cool yet convenient invention.  You can cook and once you're finished you can enjoy your lovely meal just by pulling out your table and seats from the drawer.

Calendar Ring
Even though majority of us have phones where we can check what day it is, I still think this is cool and if I can find where to purchase it I would buy it.  It's a cute ring as well!

Transformers USB Drive
I'm a HUGE Transformers fan so I love anything that has to do with it.  I really like this and even though I already have one (it's lame and plain) I would purchase this if I could find it.  My problem with some of these items is that I can't seem to find them.

Samsung Galaxy Camera
This camera looks just like a phone and I'm guessing that was the point when it was being created.  I haven't heard anything about this camera so I don't know if it's out yet or if it's coming out some time this year but I have been looking for a new camera and if this camera gets or has great reviews I'll have to check it out.

Color Changing Coasters
These are so freakin awesome. They are LED coasters and when you place your drink on them it'll change the color of the drink so it's fun and cool! They're made by Philips so maybe they're available?  Like the camera, I haven't heard anything about these either.
