so many things I want u to think about me things u don't see things we take away baby look at my face no one can lie like a lover

do you know what today is?

it's my 2 month at the new gig anniversary!

time seems to be flying by. which is a good thing i think? i haven't really been able to shine on a big project but I have some things lined up. i've CRUSHED all the smaller projects i've been working on and the client/my bosses are really impressed and actually verbally express that. so that is a VERY new phenomenon since my previous bosses have sucked. networking is a huge part of the culture here and thats kinda new for me because i can be somewhat of an introvert. but MOST people i've met have been pretty cool. overall, this is the best job that i've ever had and I aim to stay here for awhile, continue working hard and move on up.

(yeah i hit y'all with the extended version! just jam with it for the last 2 mins... :D)

neighborhood niglets

annnd on tonight's episode of "STFU I'm Trying to SLEEP!!"...a distressed young couple fights outside...let's listen in: "I luv u to DEFF!" "What a ninja supposed to do if u swing at me!" "I'm not gonna go in the house like a BITCH!" "Fuck you!!" "You hungry?"

holla if ya hear me tho (soundtrack to my week)

"nice to meet you! I'm Allison"
"I've seen you around, you are always smiling"
":D"

what good do your words do

can't
under
stand
you?

"yeah my lady is on travel or whateva"

...cuz you did not do your math!

went to strip club thurs. tues is the better night i hear. learning tricks. i definitely need a retractable stripper pole in my bedroom. absolutely no excuse. it needs to be retractable so when family comes over they never see it, and so that it won't destroy the vibe in the bedroom. it just adds spice, its not a prerequisite. what goes down should be sacred. nothin' wrong with teasing every once in awhile though. where dem dollas at? lol.

random thought: men are SO wack.

have you had a cocojito? if not you haven't LIVED.

"peace, sista"
response: good morning!



this is such a transitional period. i'm learning and doing things on my own.
ready for autumn.
most don't know what is behind these glasses. don't let em fool you.

You 2.0

the prerequisites of failure, disappointment, and heartbreak are faith, energy, and effort. there is no shame in that. you are, effectively, strengthening yourself by experiencing these "negative" things. you are evolving and creating a newer, better, stronger, smarter version of yourself. true, it takes time to absorb the relative magnitude of pain felt from these experiences. but from healing and introspection emerges wisdom and resilience. armed with those two weapons, you will make any future project manager, friend, or potential significant other
wildly happy/fortunate
to have
the upgraded version
of you.

be thrilled with every experience - good or bad. it's shaping you and propelling you towards the person you NEED to be.

thank you.

moments in time

one of my supervisors comes to me and says "hey, your team lead and alternate aren't coming in today. You have to give the briefing of the project this morning at 9." I know I looked at him like he was crazy. Then a Danis moment popped in my head. Remember the class where he showed the clip from the Hunt for the Red October? The scene where James Earl Jones told one of the Baldwin brothers he was giving the briefing as they walked to it? That's me today. The only difference is that I'm not an expert on this subject and I have 1 hour to overview the project.

...i need to start writing again. a bit selfish to keep life's characters/experiences in my head, no?
