Should I know this stuff? I'm 22!
Things I Wish I'd Known About Dating When I was 21 -- Yahoo! Personals: "Search Dating Articles:"
Okay I don't want to post every article on the internet, but even if I can't help it I have to remember something from all that reading. :) I also don't think that media should determine your life, but it is a source of opinion.
Oh...number four. I should have known that I don't need to do anything nice for someone to ask me out. Recently I didn't have to which proves that "he doesn't need any help."
Guys just do NOT think like Girls!
They won't mature in the next six months.
OMG! This could have saved me and it still can! Numero 12: Learn to cook. Learn to cook well.
I'm unique, special and important, but not a princess. Although this might contradict what I said earlier, this is making the point of no one else is going to treat you like one. So better off, as mentioned before, you only know your own needs. Be a princess...lol.
I can also relate very well to this one: My wants and needs are just are important as his. And if I don't express them because I think I'm scaring my partner away, it's just saying that I don't count as much as he does.
If my guy ever takes me out on 5 Applebee's dates and then I take him out to one really nice one, how can I ever do that to him. Aww...this is what my partner feels like when I say let's go out to eat. Gosh. It all makes sense now, and I feel like a re-tard.
Hmm...this one is interesting. Men don't think and not because they can't compose their thoughts or their confused. On the contrary, they just don't think about anything except what they're doing at the moment. If they're watching something or doing something on the computer they're doing and thinking just that.
I just had to copy and paste this one.
27. There should be a medium ground between workaholism and his absolute devotion. "The knight departing for new adventures offends his lady, yet she has nothing but contempt for him if he remains at her feet" (Simone de Beauvoir, "The Second Sex", 658).
Since the beginning of the year I've been having this real bad downfall with my environment, relationship, work, everything. This just says to me everything I did wrong and this is so right. If my partner leaves off on new 'adventures' I'm offended and hurt by him. I want to do everything with him, but I'm upset when he doesn't. However when we didn't have jobs and he was there 'remaining at my feet.' We really could have killed each other. Even though I'm also getting what I wanted, "doing everything with him." I took him for granted. Oops :(
I should never underestimated the quality of interesting. I need some hobbies to keep my man, he wants an interesting women, just like the one unique one he met. This one gets me happy.
These last two should be in everyones' mind:
Expectations? They'll ruin every dating experience I have.
I'll never understand men, I should just try to understand yourself.
I like the latter one also, because, honestly it's a lot more interesting to try to understand myself :) I'm doing what makes me smile.
I like this article :)

5 Fast Fixes for a Stronger Relationship - Love Sex on Shine
5 Fast Fixes for a Stronger Relationship - Love Sex on Shine
I fell off the wagon again with my partner and I'm having such a hard time to face the truth as well as change. I need to change the way I face life. I'm scared and I blame everything and everyone except myself. Step one is to actually go back and take that damn test that I'm supposed to do. I just keep talking about it and not doing it. Okay this has little to do with the post. All in all I need to focus on staying happy for myself because it's like hair. If the scalp is not healthy neither is your lovely locks. And I want my boyfriend and I to stay healthy. Hopefully this helps us become a little stronger, even though it's more for me. Wish me luck!

Patio Tomatoes!
Patio Tomatoes!

So far so good. Look at all those little tomatoes! They look so delicious even though they are green. I didn't grow these from scratch. However, at my new job, an employee bought these from Lowe's for me. So far the plant has 8 small tomatoes, with that giant green one being the biggest. I've fed them nutrients, but only every two weeks. I'm not sure if I should move them to a bigger pot. I'm trying to create a simple pesticide to keep from bugs eating away at the leaves. The simplest one is liquid dishwashing detergent with water in a spray bottle. I looked over some ingredients in a natural one at Home Depot and it seemed to be made of a small amount of essential oils with the rest water. I have seen some recipes which contain these oils such as rosemary. I hope to see them grown soon!

I'm Starting a Veggie Container Garden!
After growing some specific herbal medicine from seeds I've suddenly got the green thumb. Myself trying to be the jack of all trades did have an interest in Horticulture. Especially when I was studying at Texas A&M University. Of course, myself got in the way of myself and never pursued it. I should have believed I could do it because I did run across someone when I worked at Aveda, that had an awesome job. OH! I just remembered I have a plan page (short term/long term goals). I think I wrote about it in a previous post. See, how I'm trying to master just about everything and seek the best information on how to do the oddest things. Back on topic. Since working at The Home Depot, I go there on my mini-breaks and look at something new. The plants that I have thus far are: blueberry, stevia, bell pepper, and spinach. The seeds that I have already germinated and are ready for pots are: snow peas, carrots, jalapeños, and zucchini (black beauty). I have a day off tomorrow that I will spend gardening and creating a new page on this blog to update my progress and post up pictures. I'm really excited about this new project.
On another note. I have been working out consistently and have seen results. This weekend I relaxed a bit and had some alcohol, again very bad for the body, although some might argue about wine. I have a book on that! Almost everything how-to, lol. I'll have to research wines soon. The whole point was...I will try and convert some workout videos here or try to find the best way for you to reach them. As you know I do not like any traditional workouts so lately I've been working out with Callanetics and an Introduction to Belly Dance. The first visible results were my arms, upper torso and legs. Hopefully I'll be posting up a calender. I already have pictures and video. I still haven't worked myself lazy beach bum self to do Jillian's 30 Day Shred. Instead I'm doing cardio with Women's Health Total Body in 10. I love it and it's a lot of the same things in every exercise routine even Jillian's. Okay this post content is surpassing the subject line content. Peace.
