I love Down The Hatch!

Their bar is filled with pieces like this.

"Come in for a Stiff one!" lol

Anticipation Is a Killer.

Inspired by a true story.. lol

Have you ever dated someone who, in your eyes, is just about the sexiest piece of meat you’ve ever laid eyes on, until they drop their jeans? Well, I know someone who knows someone (aka me) who found herself in a very sticky situation. Read on.. lol

I was “dating” a special someone who will remain nameless. I wouldn’t want to tarnish anyone’s reputation. He was tall, dark, built and handsome as hell. Every time his name was mentioned, a smile joined the conversation as well.

Our dates were eventful and always spontaneous. He seemed to have tricks up his sleeve, which kept me anticipating his next move. It was a thriller 24/7. As the “relationship” intensified, so did the sexual tension between us. It became a task to keep our little hands off one another.

Finally, on a typical Friday movie night, we sealed the deal. The weather was crummy and it was almost the perfect setting for an eventful night, but something was missing… or shall I say only half of the man I though he was, was there. Devastation would be an understatement. Never the less, we partook in the adult activities that night, but sadly, I never saw him again.

My question is, did I allow his looks to decipher his size? Is it common to confuse the 2 or was my anticipation my down fall?

Lesson Learned:
Make sure you make it to 2nd base at least before you start to actually care. lol

He's The Best I Ever Had =)

My Poconos Get-a-way!

These 2 Bottles were the problem!

Me being a chick.. lol Mani's!

Of ALL the pictures we took.. this is what made the cut.
Sorry guys.. lol

Izzy & Andrews Bday Party =)

The Birthday Cake

As you can see Ari worked hard. lmao!

As you can see in this pic.. Each of us is holding a Corona!
Now that's a child's party Dominican Style! lmao!

I'm Back (for now.. lol)

So, it's been a while since I have posted anything. Honestly, I was kind of over the whole blogging thing. But I am back by popular demand! Thanks guys.. means a lot! =)

I think an update is in order. So here goes.

1. I currently have a new love interest and no it's not a celebrity. He's someone I can get to. lol he's funny, good looking, smart and most of all... he's a hick! lmao So I'm sprung. There's nothing better than being able to dance bachata slowly & closely with a good looking fella. lol
2. I finally moved out of Bushwick aka my Hell Hole apartment. lol As you can see that's a positive!
   
3. I'm enrolled to go back to school! yay me! Time to get my geek on! I wont reveal my major because I am always changing it. So let's just leave it as I'm going back to school.
   

I think that's enough about my life for the moment.

I should be back to posting gushy lovey stuff shortly. So stay tuned! =)

Can't We All Just Get Along?

Is it me, or has it become more & more difficult to keep the peace? In my opinion, people today are more reluctant to maintain healthy relationships/friendships. Everyone is ready for some type of brawl at all times. Almost as though they have their boxing gloves on & are awaiting the sound of the bell to initiate the first round. From my personal experience, I have been surrounded by people who enjoy manipulating and/or creating uncomfortable situations solely for their personal entertainment. To me, you have to be a real pathetic individual to gain satisfaction by creating chaos in others lives. Take this as an example, I had a close friend who got involved with the wrong guy. Innocently enough she trusted him as we all did. What a mistake that was. I will not divulge all the details in which led to the chaos BUT I will say that he took things to a level in which it did not need to be taken. He created a wedge in between a friendship that was tainted but not tarnished. I have to admit though, it was not him single handed who destroyed it all. My dear "friend" played her role, as did I. Any who, it goes without saying that the 3 of us have some unfinished business in which we need to resolve. It may not happen today nor tomorrow, but the day will come. I am ready to face my demon, though I can not say the same for him. As I stated before, that day is coming.

Correction...

Apparently people have been reading my posts and taking it out of context. I just want to clarify that just because I blog about my personal experience and/or situations, doesn't not allow you, the reader, to start dialing numbers and instigating matters. 

I'm starting to believe that people have no lives. Which is OK to me... it gives me higher profile views every time you pay me a visit. =)

Just don't make something out of nothing and allow me to "fix" my own issues.. Like the 22 yr old that I am. 

xoxo you know you love me =)

 

1st Dates.. Ugh

Now that I am dating again, I find myself almost educating these fools on how to act on a date. I have been on a few first dates recently and some of the things that these guys TRIED to do left me gasping. I almost felt embarrassed and violated at the same time. 

One of my date-scapades landed me in a very small lounge in Williamsburg. The mood and scene was actually very romantic. This particular guy, however, was not as impressive. I don't think that we had intelligent conversation at any one time that entire night. All his ignorant self could talk about was how he just got this new hair gel & how many times a week he goes to the gym.

Fellas, please stop this "cocky" epidemic from spreading any further. If you have to brag about the gym, that means you're not attending as frequently as you claim. As for the hair products, we simply do not care as to whether you are using gel, mouse or whatever other fem. products. 

I mean, these guys can't be serious right?

I also had a retard try and grab the boob. I know they're out there but my god! Ask me my last name before you go grabbing at my buffet line. lol 

Anyway, just wanted to share that experience. I'll keep you all posted as to how many lames I date before I find the winner. 

Good Night =)

Mientes Tan Bien

Que te quedaras conmigo 
Una vida entera 
Que contigo adiós inviernos 
Solo primavera 

Que las olas son de magia 
Y no de agua salada 
Yo te creo todo 
Tú no me das nada... 

Que si sigo tu camino 
Llegaré hasta el cielo 
Tú me mientes en la cara 
Y yo me vuelvo ciego 

Yo me trago tus palabras 
Tú juegas un juego 
Y me brilla el mundo 
Cuando dices luego...

Cuando dices siento 
Siento que eres todo 
Cuando dices vida 
yo estaré contigo 

Tomas de mi mano 
Y por dentro lloro 
Aunque sea mentira 
Me haces sentir vivo 
Aunque es falso el aire 
Siento que respiro 
 
Mientes tan bien 
Que me sabe a verdad 
Todo lo que me das 
Ya te estoy amando 

Mientes tan bien 
Que he llegado a imaginar 
Que mi amor llenas tu piel 
Aunque todo es de papel  
Mientes lo sé 

Sin Banderas__

Process Of Elimination

Well, it's become clear that I need to eliminate a lot of garbage from life. When I say garbage I mean baggage, dead weight, time consumers, etc. I like to call this chapter of my life "SPRING CLEANING." 

I am simply at a place in my life where no one matters to me. It may seem harsh, but I finally have to think of myself. I have a small group of close friends and the love of my family. What more could someone ask for?

I just find that everyone has an agenda these days. The betrayal is inevitable, and the disappointment come by the dozen. Frankly, I'll pass. I am aware of who I can trust and depend on. When life becomes to much to bare, or boys leave me without words, I can call my girls*

Friend is a term too loosely used. It's taken some time, but with experience I have used the process of elimination to dispose of the garbage. 

Good bye to the drama.. hellooooo sanity! lmao

I feel like a weight is lifted.. =)

The Let Down

I have encountered a one night let down. 

It was magical.

It was a small taste of what we once were.

Before the fighting & the bickering,

Before the harsh words, and predictable let-downs.

Our 2-day hibernation brought me to a harsh reality though.

We can never be those two people again.

No more late nights and silly fights.

No more deep conversation and future planning. 

I have simply become the one that got away. 

He can't let go.

In a way, I don't want him to. 

I want that little secret place in his heart to have my name embedded. 

Though our little escape from the world was blissful. 

It became very bitter sweet.

I couldn't help but interrogate myself.

When will it be enough for me to walk away?

When will I stop listening to the beat of his heart..

and follow the wisdom in which I know I possess.

Through my personal attack I came to this conclusion.. 

When two people love each other..

Truthfully and Completely..

Enough will simply Never become Enough..

If I'm not with you right now.. I have this feeling we'll get lost out there.. It's a big bad world out there filled with twists and turns.. and people have a way of blinking and missing the moment.. The moment that could have changed everything.. I don't know why you should take the leap of faith with us.. But you smell good to me.. Like Home..

.. Next thing I knew, I wanted to spend the rest of my life in that conversation.. 

Finally back at it!

I know its been a bit since I have posted any blogs. I apologize, but Tiff is back & boy do I have a lot to blog about =)

So much has been going on in my world and much of it I am ready to spill about =)

I feel as though I need some mental cleansing, and this site is the perfect place for that! 

So happy to be back!!

Stalker Alert

Ugh.. I am so tired of dating psychos.. lol
Here's a funny little story for you guys...

So about a few days ago I went on a date with this guy I have known for a while now. He was always a good friend.. and a sweetheart.. so I figured "whats the harm?" I really should have re-thought that statement before hand.

The date went well, as I knew it would. We ended the night with a small peck and a "I'll call you." At that moment I didn't realize how literal he was when he said he would call. About 30 mins later I received my first call.

Call #1
Stalker: "Hey I just wanted to make sure you were able to open you door and get into your house ok"

Me: :: raised eyebrow:: "Umm.. yea.. i got in just fine.. thanks for calling.."

Stalker: "Wait.. before you go.. can I ask you a serious ?"

Me: " Sure.. just make it quick.. I want to jump into the shower"

Stalker: "Well, do you think you could fall in love with a guy like me? I mean.. I know its the first date.. but if this is how it feels to be with you.. then the sex should be good too"

Me: "Are you fucking kidding me? I think that this convo is over now.. Please do not call me anymore you fucking weirdo.."

:: CLICK ::

Now, he has still called me since that date about twice a day. I also have about 15 messages saved with him professing his love.. blah blah blah..

Can someone please explain to me why guys have to take it there? I know this isn't a typical move.. so is something wrong with homie or is he just that comfortable with me? I dont know this answer, nor do I care to find out. All I know is that he needs to re evaluate his approach.

Where are all the nice normal boys? lol I'm just saying! Can't a girl get normal these days.. I dont want a nut job.. a bad boy.. a stalker nor a punk.. Just someone who is going to think I'm amazing. Even when the makeup is smeared.. and the hair isn't looking too hott. lol

Weekly Quotes =)

The evil of the world is made possible by nothing but the sanction you give it.

--Ayn Rand


It is easier to get forgiveness than to get permission.

The other woman... friend or enemy?

I have come face to face with this type of uncomfortable situation. Dealing with the "other woman" is never an easy task, but someone has to do it.

In my past relationship, infidelities played a major role. Whether it be a drunken night, an ex girl friend, or an old high school fling, I was always left to play investigator. Many a night I would sit and think to myself.. "Is this stress worth it?"

I've come to learn now that the stress is never worth it. As women, we want to attack the other female. As though there is some type of unwritten code which she's broken. Hardly ever do we retaliate toward the individual, who amongst all, is the person who owes you explanations as well as honesty.

This reality played in my mind, and I got to thinking. Is the other woman my enemy after all? Did she save me? Should I be thanking her instead of slashing her tires.. and writing her threatening emails? The answer came to me as clear as day.

Men will go as far as you allow them. I am, in no way, stating that I deserved each discretion on his behalf. I am stating that maybe this "other woman" did me a favor. If she believes she has what it takes to change him, god bless her. In reality, we all know how her story will end.
Much like mine.
She will be fighting the same battle, inevitably losing the war.

The Other Woman.. My Very Silly Friend.. =)

Strength

"Love comes in un-natural forms.. And leaves abruptly.. without any reason or cause."

I am a firm believer that when it comes to the topic of love, you must always handle with care. As a single & intelligent woman I have come to the realization that it is ok so walk away from love or the one you love.

Is it better to cry for the one you love, or cry because of the one you love? Would you rather suffer with the person you love, or love yourself enough to walk away and be better off alone? I'm sure many females face this question on a daily basis.

For some time now, I have been suffering for the one that I love. I always put myself second to their needs, because I felt that was the right thing to do. Today, I know better. I love myself before any man and I remind myself daily that one day I will be happy. As of now, I fulfill my own needs. I worry about me, and only me. As much as it pains me to walk away, I am certain that I must move on. Sometimes, its best to cry because it's over, than cry because you wish it were.

" I've cried with you.. I've cried without you.. I understand that you're not for me.. and Now I cry for you.. "

The Check List: Is Your Family Nuts?

Coming from a traditional Hispanic family, I have encountered some not so normal behavior. I'm sure I speak for many Spanish families when I say we are some crazy people.. so beware.

I have gathered a few not to realistic scenarios for you to cross reference. Enjoy!

Please do not take this offensively.. it's all fun and games!!!


Is Your Family Nuts?

1. If your aunt and uncle are fighting over the same man.. they're nuts.. lol
2. If Abuelo always talks about the hot little 20 yr old next door.. he's nuts.. he needs to worry about his dentures!
3. When a child's birthday party is yet another excuse for all the adults to get drunk.. they're all nuts.
4. All your young little female cousins start turning out to be pregnant.. they're nuts!
5. Your mother wears your clothes & chills with your friends.. (def a Spanish habit) shes nuts!
6. You have a 2 bedroom apartment with Juan.. Maria.. Pedro.. Marisol.. Carmen.. Jesus.. Miguel.. and Ana all living in there.. they're nuts!
7. Lastly, All the furniture in Abuelas house is still covered in plastic.. she's nuts.. and needs an upgrade! ( i love my grandma!)

lmao.. I hope you enjoyed.. I know I enjoyed typing it..

xoxo you know you love me! =)

New York New York!

New York living is life in the fast lane, that goes without saying. But it seems to be dating in the fast lane, eating in the fast food restaurants and sleeping in the not so quiet neighborhoods.
I have been battling with the urges of leaving my home here in New York and going back to Florida. Sometimes it just seems as though New York is too much for me to handle. It could be that I have so much history here that i feel as though i can't hide from it. New York is known as the city which never sleeps. Guess what, I like to sleep. Lol.. So maybe we just don't fit anymore, me and New York that is..

I cant help but feel that I would be leaving so much of myself behind though. I have my love here, my family, my life. Although the city that never sleeps leaves me with bags under my eyes, broken hearted at times, and in desperate need of a shot of something toxic, I'm simply not ready to leave here.

I love New York.. I am New York..

She's one of my new favs!

Especially lovin' the freestyle she did.. I couldn't of said it better myself! lmao
