A LONG over-due post

Finally I am posting.. I've been getting used to this crazy work schedule that I haven't had time for anything. 
Anywho I wanted to update on a few things.  

B:
A big reason for this blog was to give myself a chance to explore my girly side.  Now don't get me wrong I am pretty girly but I often stick to what I know. It's been recently that I've discovered things like ..Sephora, Essie, OPI etc lol crazy huh:?(thank goodness for f&b nesties)
I wanted to start with some new jewelry pieces so I went to Forever 21 and got some necklaces to add some pop to my plain tops. these 2 are my favorite.

I also have devoted one hour every Monday to my nails. I give myself a mani-pedi . This week I am wearing Essie's After sex.. It's a very pretty color.. I haven't worn any colors in the red family since h.school but this color is very nice.

H: 
I am very happy to say that I've been doing pretty good with my eating. I went to the doctor this week for an annual check up. He pointed out how I needed to lose weight my bmi is way to high. Well it definitely motivated me more to do something about it.  I've been making more meals at home and staying away from junk food. I am trying to eat as clean as possible and write down everything that I eat. I haven't had a chance to hit the gym but I've been doing workouts at home. Hopefully soon I can get to the gym and get a more concrete routine. My friend asked me who's body am I inspired by and I must say Salma Hayek. I like her because shes close to my height and curvy. 
                            

S:(self)

I went to Borders and picked up 

20-Something, 20-Everything: A Quarter-life Woman's Guide to Balance and Direction 

My friend read it and loved it. I actually will start reading it tomorrow.  
I hope to find some direction for myself. I hate that I am 27 and I am still struggling with where I want to be career-wise. I have been debating whether I should finish my BA in Business Administration, or take a risk and get my cosmetology license.  I have been taking private clients (nothing big) just hair dyes, do's etc for a few years.  In May I have been hired to style hair and makeup for a young girl turning 15.  I need to definitely need to take some quiet time and think this through. 

Lastly, I ordered some makeup from Elf, Cherry Culture and Sephora I will be posting pics later. I actually have a few things pics I need to post.. that's something to work on :)

It's going to be new

I am finally writing my first post! yay! I've been thinking for awhile about this blog. I love so many blogs that have been part of my inspiration. I want my blog to be about me.. I want to hold myself accountable with my "diet", share my new finds.. and randomly jot thoughts down.
2010 has started and Feb is right around the corner. I made a mental list of things that I want to work on .

1. Accountability and responsibility to myself
2. Be a healthier me! work on my fitness a la Fergie
3. Take more time doing all those girly things I enjoy and should do more often
4. Career ..make it happen


I am going to dedicate a post for each of those 4 things and post often on where I am standing with them.
I am excited about 2010 it will be an amazing year for sure.
