01-01-2011 Who Would have thought!
The first day of the year, its every procrastinators dreaded day... the day that forever is coined, oh I'll start that in the New year, well ladies and gents it is the New year, what are you going to "try" and start only to realize a month later you have forgotten to do it, only to repeat the cycle year after year. I don't believe in yearly resolutions, I do believe in the daily realization of things that need to be changed and suree..... once a year you can dig deep to set a an outline for what you would like to discover, change, improve and conquer in the new year. But everyone should focus on the daily adventures to try and improve themselves. Like for 2011, I would love to learn Arabic, go to aesthetics school,to cherish a picture everyday(don't worry I'll share) and continue to becoming the women that I am suppose to be. Now see that isn't to hard, I am not sitting here planning to rule the world or become the first woman president(Ironically those are kind of the same ;)). I am just setting myself up to accomplish things I need/want to accomplish in the next year. I could be like oh i want to lose 50 lbs, get a man worth marrying ...blah blah blah but I don't need a new year for that...i can do that when ever I want... don't feel bad if you make up new years resolutions I won't judge. But answering me this, why would set yourself up for failure like that in the beginning of a new year....shouldn't you be more open to evaluating the things that happened last year and figure ways to change them? ok maybe I am judging a little.
What are your goals for the new year, dont worry I wont hold you to them!

...lifes funny sometimes...
Life is already funny, add the world wide web and we have a completely different addition to a funny life....We all know about the traditional women's "help & advice" sections in every magazine and a million websites. But it is once in a while when you stumble upon a "help & advice" for men. I stumbled upon a ehow article that made me laugh. It was a how to get a girlfriend, dating advice for single men. If you have ever looked at a ehow article it rates difficulty, well this article rates it as easy. The other part that I found to be funny was that it literally had three steps to get a girlfriend for a single man. Really are us girls that simple? I never thought that!
Best advice I have EVER seen!
Have patience. These things take time. You can't force someone to like you, and trying to hurry things up can ruin the courtship altogether. Give him some space and don't be obsessive. Let things progress at a natural pace, or fade out of natural causes. Eventually he'll tell you one way or another whether or not he's interested in reciprocating your affection. And if he's not, don't hang around him like a lost puppy. Sometimes you might be incompatible in ways that you don't see, and sometimes a guy just isn't ready for a long term relationship. Don't take rejection too personally. It happens. Not everyone in the world is going to like you. Move on! There are other fish in the sea and if you followed the first step, you know that you're a good catch.
Keep in mind that you cannot control what other people think and do. He may be the object of your interest, but that does not create any obligation that you be his. Turn the situation around. If there was some random guy who took an interest in you, is there anything that he could do to make you like him? Probably not. You will like him or not. You will find him attractive or not. You will find him funny or not. All he can do is try to be the best person he can be, and hope that you agree. The reverse is also true. Be the best person you can be, and let it develop--or not--from there.

When the road to home is covered with bushes..
You know when life gives you hurdles you are to get over them, well what if you don't know how?
Wanting a guy to notice you with out being "that" girl
Things to consider is what you think when you see someone, what gets your attention negative and positive. You need to take how you want to be seen, and act it out by seeing other people!
In Life
Your goal is to leave a positive impression on this person. The best way is to smile, let him see who you are. Stand with good posture and have good eye contact. These things are going to show that you are confident and that is exactly what every woman wants a man to take from it. Don't ever be afraid to go after what you want, worse case scenario is that you realize it may not be something you want after all.
At Work
Dress to impress, put together vs. bed hair, positive verse negative. Do your job you know your going to get more positive attention if your doing what you are suppose to be doing and doing it well. Ask for input without seeming stupid, it is a fine line for sure, but think about it if you ask for to check something he can check to see how awesome you are or he can teach you a new thing..it is a win win. Be a happy person, combat the normal work breeding grounds for angry feeling by being a source of cheer. (With being the happy person though comes some things to watch out for people will like you and gossip with you so try and stay Switzerland). Interact when appropriate this will show your knowledge and have him see you as person
At the bar or gym
SMILE :D It tells a guy what kind of a person you are with out having to say a thing, this is a way to say your open with out the fear of getting rejected. It is not a need for a ear to ear smile, just a small coy smile that says I am here. After a smile it is about eye contact with out being creepy!
Be sure that his attention is what you want. Don't try to get a guy to look your way, you want attention and you want to feel good about yourself.But don't be loud he is going to think your weird and not approachable! Being yourself is good but don't do something crazy to get his attention! You don't want to lead someone on like a puppy taken out for a walk. You could end up in a very awkward or uncomfortable situation.
Remember it is about you liking someone enough to want their attention, this doesn't mean you get to lose yourself in the process.Be yourself. Everyone probably says this, but it's true. No guy wants a girl that pretends like she is something she is not. Show him that you are a good friend. Listen to the music he listens to. Just don't come on too clingy. No boy wants a girl who just follows him around all day. In addition, if you want to find out more about him, don't stalk the poor guy. Just find out about him from his friends you trust. For example, ask them about his likes and dislikes, what music he is into, what concerts he goes to, if he likes anyone, etc. Be confident in yourself, and it will show that you are an amazing person. Don't be someone you're not. You want him to like you for you.
Once You Get the attention.....now what
Hang out with him often but not too often ; you don't always want to be hanging around because you might look like an annoying bug that's always around and never goes away. Try to start a conversation about an interesting topic, for example, if you're at a football game, ask confidently but cutely, "Did I miss any action?". This will tell him that you want to know about the game, but also you want to get his opinion, so he will automatically talk to you about the game (or other topics) the whole game. Start slowly like a movie or party try not to make it so noticeable cause he might not be interested.
FLIRTTTTT :) best part of courting~! Do it as much as you want, but remember that too much flirting especially with other guys will likely get him to take notice, but perhaps not in a good way. Don't do too much, but not too little either. Sometimes you might look too girlie, popular, wanna-be etc. If he reacts and you don't think its real, he's just doing it because you're there and you're a girl and he thinks he can do better, but let him know he can't. If he is faking it, call his bluff and say something that makes him know you don't think he is 'all that'. For example, if he comes close, pull a face and offer him gum. This will unbalance his ego.
Start up conversations that have to do with if it's where you are or if he's talking to you. Make sure you don't go on about nothing. Definitely make sense when you talk to him. Don't twirl your hair, flick your eyelashes or giggle nonstop. He can get kind of scared and make fun of you, no matter how old you are, guys will always be the same. Be yourself. Just be who you are, that's the #1 quality guys look for in a girl.

Be kind to your skin, it will be kind to you!
We have all heard they hype and talk about mineral make up and the benefits to a person they can have. But what does that mean to you? I will try and figure this out for you purely from my own research and experience(I am not trying to claim this to be that of an educated perspective).
There are so many lines out there that claim to be good to your skin. Well honestly there really isn't anything that is amazing for your skin, even if you don’t wear make up and go all natural you still are damaging it. It is the sad truth. But, just because there are not things that are good for it doesn't mean you have to provide more damage to it.
Liquid make up is not that amazing for your skin, it can A) concave into your pores suffocating them, B) trap your own natural oils in your skin causing acne or C)adding to much oil to your skin with its longevity formula. Liquid has the tendency to give you uneven coverage, with lines at the jaw line if not perfectly matched.
Powder is a great base make up, but isn't perfect. I love bare essentials but every line has it down falls.
Powder is messy, it can get all over your clothes if not applied correctly, there is a small chance of blotchiness. But overall powdered has more pro's than liquid. It can absorb oil, it has a longer wear and less ability to smudge. And if you opt for the natural kind you are putting less chemicals on your skin which is always a plus.
If you have troublesome skin, just make sure you are washing and mosturizing with hypo allergenic products. That is the only sure fire way to keep your skin looking good. Vitamin D mosturizers are amazing for the skin especailly if you live in not sunny parts of the world.

Eyelash's and Eyebrow's the frames to our eyes
I will be the first to admit, I have a strong obsession with eyelash's and perfect eyebrows! I think it is a dangerous obsession if not taken the right way. I use latisse which scares me, so in a search for natural ways to help my eyebrows and eyelash's reach optimal perfection I found various claims and acted upon them.
Gently rub petroleum jelly on your eyelashes. While there is no real evidence to support the claim that petroleum jelly stimulates eyelash growth, it may moisturize and condition them, thereby causing them to appear healthier.
Be gentle with your eyelash curler, you can cause trauma by using them to roughly. I have a heated eyelash curler that I am newly in love with! its from sephora and is only 12 bucks!

A good full brow is the best way to give yourself a better frame.
