Morning:

I feel kinda bad, considering a co-worker told me that if he ever begin blogging that he would stop after the third day, and friday it seemed as if I would do the same. But oh well, I'm back! Weekend, weekend, weekends...Ironically I learned a lot this past weekend. A lot about myself, a lot about life, and a lot about others as well. Friday we did the D&B scene, but I really wasn't feeling that too hot. I never know that that many of us would use D&B for a hookup lounge. I am soo serious! I love my black women, but comon now. A place of business where lil kids come to play games and hang out with their families, and we have our sistas strollin up in there with dresses that literally stop at their waistline, sad state of affairs! About the only good thing that I can say came out of that night was the fact that I enjoyed hanging out with my chapter bruhs. DP brought his old high school homegirl there so conversation was deemed necessary. The relationships conversation came up of course, and as usual, we had different opinions. She told me something that seemed to be the biggest oximoron I had ever heard. She claims that she goes out to parks and museums with her significant other in order to get to know him???...that bothered me, because she doesnt deem it necessary to do these same things with him before they enter into a relationship. To put it more simplistic, she'd rather get into a relationship first, and then get to know the guy....maybe its just me. Anyhow, Saturday was MY day. I literally did nothing, except watch movies. Lord of the Rings "The Return of the King" [ four stars ****], Out of Time [five stars *****], Run Away Jury [four stars ****]. It was a good time to just relax as get some rest from the week. My sista [in a cool friend, grew up through high school, kinda way] came by on saturday night. She just got back from California serving her active duty time. I luv her to death, but I just don't see how anyone could/would want to be an Arabic Interrogator???? Go Figure. Sunday, Church was the bomb. Pastor preached on "Biggie Sizing" your life. I had always heard about Elijah and Elisha from the Old Testament, but like most stuff, just never took the time to find out for myself. It really put a lot of things into prospective. Things like, loyalty and dedication to Christ. Im working......walking & learning. I found out a lot about myself this weekend, and am thankful to God that I made it through. Another days journey and I am glad about it! I think I am gonna start the book today [The Purpose Driven Life]. Its about time for me to take life to another level, and I am realizing more and more each day how it must begin, increase, and end with Him. See you tomorrow.
