I got a serious thang for Dwayne Wayne

I know I am about 20 years late, lol, but I do love watching A different World. I've watched the reruns on Nick at Night, and now on B.E.T(I guess B.E.T is attempting to step their game up with the quality of shows the air). Well, I've always had this little crush on Dwayne Wayne, and now that I am on summer vacation, I get to watch A different World twice a night, getting my fix of Mr. Dwayne Wayne. Aside from being kinda skinny and ok height, he is the epitome of the kind of guy I would like to date personality wise. And it is that same personality that over shadows the whole skinny and decent height thing. My fellow blogger, SBM may consider him a simp for chasing after Whitley for so long (and I would kind of have to agree with SBM), but there is so much about Dwayne that makes me overlook that. Yes, I do realize that I am talking about a fictional character, but everyone has a character on some show or movie that tickles their fancy.
So what is it about Dwayne Wayne, that is making me go Bananas?!?! Well, he's intelligent, funny, open-minded, dorky, driven, sweet, genuine, not perfect....the list goes on and on. I notice that I have an attraction for nerdy guys.


SEXY!!!!!


Ok, maybe not as nerdy as Steve Urkel, but man oh man..I love a Nerd..lol..If I could ever come across a real Dwayne Wayne..I don't think I would be able to let go..lol..

SIDE NOTE

Check out www.anythingblack.net, the man that runs the site is doing his thang. Not only does he have good reads, but he also has a business selling shirts. I got mine, you should get one too..."What's on your back"...(using the voice from the capital one credit card commercials)

Im back!!!

As we can all tell by my post, I didn't really go any where. But, I am officially back in the dating world. After a few months of turning guys down and keeping my distance, Andrea is about to get back into the mix of thangs.
I'm not necessarily going to jump into the first relationship that presents itself, but I will go on dates. There are a few persistent young men who kept hope alive during my hiatus, and would like to go on dates. Some are guys I knew from high school, who I recently ran into, while others are guys that I met in random places like the library at a community college. Point of the matter is, these guys done stuck it out. And trust me, I already know that they were not sitting there twiddling their thumbs waiting on little ol me. No, they were doing their own thing. But like I said, I'm not trying to hop in a relationship ASAP, so what they do is their business. As long as I don't get caught up in anything.
So this Wednesday, I'll be hanging out at an outdoor entertainment spot. The kind of place you can watch a movie, talk, eat, play games, and spend money on random knick knacks. So we plan on doing a little talking and eating, and of course we're going dutch. The other date is on Saturday, and I will go laser tagging. When I suggested that, the guy didn't think I was serious. But I wanted to do something fun and different, so that seems like it's a good plan.
These are just simple dates, no big deals or life commitments. Just know that Andrea S. is back in the mix.

Case of the ex

Oh it is a beautiful thing when your hair is done, your legs are soft and smooth, your skin is glowing, you look so sexy, and you run into your ex-boyfriend...HAHAHAHA (evil laugh). This has happened to me on more than one occasion, but last night brought back that good feeling. Remember my dear "friend" from the post Why must simple situation become difficult? , well I seen him last night. He dropped by to give back something I had loaned him when we were still talking. Well the outfit I had on, what the outfit I had went out with earlier in the day. When he decided to pass through, I hadn't changed yet. When he called me to go to go down stair, I slipped on my shoes, and took my time heading out the apartment. When I got outside and he seen me, he stepped out of his car like he wanted to give me a hug. Nope sorry buddy, that was not going to happen. So I stepped away, he handed me my things, and tried to start up a friendly conversation while giving me the once over. He say "HEY!!! How are you, how have you been? You look really good, and I like the hair style." I looked at him said ok, took my things and said bye while walking away. For some of you, you may think I was jacked up for being shady...well I don't think he deserves any formalities from me.
Anyway, the main point of this blog, is to point out the satisfaction I get from running into an ex while I am looking top notch. (I don't want to generalize and say all people/women feel this way). I remember one time I was dating this guy, he never seen me where my hair down or have on a real spiffy outfit. Then one day I ran into into him, and my hair was straightened out and I on a snazzy outfit. It was nice to see him oogle, then make a big commotion out of it. However, he should not have done all that while in a relationship with a young lady you started stomping off down the side walk. His buffonery got him in some serious trouble.
I guess I enjoy the look on the face of an ex when he sees what he no longer has. That might sound slightly evil, but o well.

Why I love my culture

So this past Saturday my aunt celebrated her 50th birthday at the Hollywood park casino. The festivities took place on the 6th floor, and everyone was required to wear formal attire. Belizean cuisine was served: the oxtail, curry chicken, stew chicken, coconut rice, red beans, fry plantain, and desserts...wait what was I typing about..oh yea the party. So after eating various speeches were delivered, followed by the happy birthday song. Then the punta rock music was played. Women and Men danced in their evening dresses and tux. But of course no Belizean party is a party until someone starts playing drums, yes drums. They started playing the cultural drum beats at 2am, and people started to dance john canoe: (imagine people doing this in evening gowns)



It was fun to watch every generation dance and smile. You could see the gold beaming from everyones front tooth when they laughed out loud. (check my gold to see what I am talking about)





Its my culture, and I love it

NO FOOL!!!

So I went on over to a fellow blogger's page, Mikki, during my attempt to procrastinate on packing up my dorm...lol. She had an interesting blog entry, Text Message Madness. I will summarize her post:

One day while relaxing, Mikki received a post from Jason*. She hadn't heard from him in a cool minute. So they exchange a few pleasantries, the classic hello what good and what not. He eventually invites her over for dinner,but since she was not up for the hour drive she invited him over. Once that was decided, she informed him that she wasn't up for a sexual visit. She just wanted to chill. Needless to say, by the end of the text message conversation Jason wanted some sexual attention, and since it wasn't going to happen, he had nothing else to say.

Go figure. I am not saying that every man out there only hits a girl up, just to see what could go down. I understand that there are cases where someone just popped into your mind and you thought to your self..Gee I wonder how so and so are doing, let me hit them up. I've done it before.
However, that isn't the issue I want to address. What I'm talking about is that guy who I haven't talked to in months because the last time we had a conversation, he wanted something that I wasn't up to giving.So therefore steered clear of any communication, but now he has a offer I "cannot refuse"....HAHAH.. Even for those that did do something in the past, that does not mean that a 6 month later, a text message is going to get you anywhere. Like I mentioned in Mikki's blog:

I know I am late on the uptake, but i know where you are coming from on the whole, “I haven’t talked, text, email, im, myspace, facebook this guy in months, he must want something.” I know it isn’t cool to just assume, but after a few txt messages, your assumption is usually validated. A lot of the guys that hit me, are guys I didn’t even do anything with, but they have the whole “she’s the one that got away” mentality. So they hit me months later, as if i have changed my mind. NO FOOL!!!..lol anyway..great post.

Short little story. I was talking to this guy back in August of 2007. He was cool, we hung out a few times. The most we did was kiss. So some time in September, we were texting back and forth. You know, the hello, how are you and what not. Then out of the blue he asked, Will you have sex with me. I believe I looked at that text message for about 5 minutes. I had to make sure I wasn't seeing things. I text him back asking if he was serious and if he was,NO!!! Along with a bit of my two cents. Anyway after that, he did not hit me back up. So come January of 2008, this fool hits me up like hey. Apparently I was running through his mind, and he wanted to just see what's up. When it all came down to it, he wanted to get some. Apparently he must of thought that I would change my mind. Nope, that sure wasn't going to happen.

I can't ask why do men do that, because I already know why, plus it isn't just men that do it. People get their urges and what not, and start to going through their phonebook for past hook ups, but honestly a text message from out the blue months later is not cool. And if I said no from the get go, what makes you think I am going to turn around and say yes. I'm not playing hard to get, I jut don't want you.

Through my eyes I find it to be disrespectful, who I am doesn't matter because all that person sees in me is a possible way to rid themselves of sexual frustration. And to add more insult to injury, they felt that a text message was an appropriate way to ask for "some".No Fool!!!! If its that serious, they need to get a bottle of lotion and say hello to Mr. Left or Right hand.

Sleep Deprevation

It is that lovely time of the year. Where college students everywhere become caffeine addicts and nocturnal creatures. On Sunday, I woke up around 1 something in the afternoon. I assessed the chores for my day- start packing up my dorm, study for Physiology Final, take notes for English final, and post a blog. I decided to finish preparing for my English final first by finishing up the necessary notes that I would eventually type. Then, I started packing, but became increasingly depressed after realizing how much crap I have accumulated during my first year in college. So I went to the cafe to enjoy dinner around 6pm, and chit chatted with a few individuals. Afterwards I grabbed my Physiology note book at 7pm, and started studying. I sat in the Cafe from 7-10:30pm, where my cousin and I took the hint that it was time to leave when the light were shut off. So we traveled back to my dorm, and decided to make a run to the nearest jack n the crack, get some food, then stopped by 7-eleven for some enormous energy drinks (which cautioned to drink no more than 2 per day). Well I bought to of those, then we made our way back on campus to study. Well by 7:30 am, I was on my second can of monster's energy drink, still typing away in the computer lab getting ready for my 8 am exam, and sleep deprived. After fitting all the possible information that I can on a 4x6 note card for the exam, I returned to my dorm to get a scantron, and pencil. By 7:50, I was sitting in class, high on energy drink..possibly even shaking, hungry, exhibiting a slight headache, and waiting for the exam to begin. After A 2 hour final, I went back to the computer lab to type the necessary notes for my English exam which just so happen to be 30min after the end of my Physiology exam..YAY...So I finished my second can of Monster, made it in class my 10:30 am, and started the in class essay, that our professor stress should not have any grammatical problems..HA...I love the English language, but I do encounter issues with grammar...sorry. Well I spent 2 hours on that in class essay. Once the exam was done, my body was ready to drop. I was incapable of walking a straight line, my pulse was kind of pounding, i was shaking, the head ache had gotten worse, and my eyes refused to stay open. I know I walked into a few things while I was trying to make my way back to my dorm. I then got lunch since it was 12:30pm, and got comfortable..aka pajama pants..sweatshirt..messy bun. Hey..I am at a predominately all girls school..lol..we all get pretty comfortable and dress like a hot mess, especially if you are a nursing student. After eating I attempted to crash, but couldn't fall asleep, So by 7:00pm..I realized my body had been without sleep for about 30 hours. I took and hour and a half nap, but was awaken by my screaming alarm, I wanted to push snooze, but decided to wake up. I have to study for my Chemistry exam that I have tomorrow. YUP..during finals week, sleep becomes gold, but our grades are worth Platinum. I attempted to continue packing earlier, but, that wasn't going to well. So tonight, I will prepare for my Chem exam. Its finals week, I didn't expect to get much sleep anyway.

You have to be kidding me!!!!!

This is my new baby, a 2005 Honda Civic DX aka my first car. I am of course in love with every aspect of my car. I love the handle, how cheap it is to fill up ($40-45), and it has a 30 mpg for the city and 35 mpg for the highway.
I have driven other people's cars, of course I took my time, and was able to reach my destinations smoothly. This might be due to the fact that I usually traveled at night to go get starbucks, or I was deemed designated driver.
But today, I took my baby out to run a few errands. And I became considerably irritated by the degree of incompetent drivers. I would wonder, who did they pay in order to get their license. Are the blinkers so complicated to use? If you are making a left or right, do you not think it would be appropriate to let other drivers know which way you are going to turn. And how about those who have their blinkers on, and do not turn. Are you freaking KIDDING me. I am thoroughly happy that I am alert to what is happening around, and wait for those who "claim" they are turning, start doing so. Because if i didn't then I would have gotten hit by some imbecile who decided to go straight instead of turning in front of me like his blinkers indicated he would do! And to add on, some other woman who was exiting didn't bother to put on her blinker. So I'm in the middle lane wondering which way she is going to go. HONESTLY...is it so difficult to use one's blinker!
Oh but wait!!!!! That wasn't the end of my encounters with those who I deem to be dunces with invisible cone hats. I am getting ready to exit the Target parking lot. As I wait by the stop sign, I put my blinker on, signaling a left turn. I look right, then left, then right again. I was about to accelerate, when I notice an Old man on my left crossing the parking lot. So I wait for him to cross, then I look to my to my right as I proceed to make my left. Then this idiot reverses out of the parking lot, as if he is on the set of the Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift. He didn't bother checking his mirrors, because if he did, he would have seen my vehicle.

oval car= idiot, brown stick figure= old man, gray square= my car, gray dots= path my vehicle traveled, red writing= where I almost got hit



What irritated me, is that the douche was around my age. Adding to the statistics that young people are incapable of driving properly. So when the moron gave the oh shit look, i wanted to get a bucket of itching powder and shove it down his throat for not only being a statistic, but for almost hitting my baby.


No wonder men pay higher car insurance!


And last but not least, I went to the gas station to fill up my car. So i put in $20 dollars, and I was elated to see the needle go from empty to over half way full. But my smile seized when I notice a man parked directly behind me, keeping me from being able to leave the gas station. The car in front of me was still getting gas, so I'm asking the man behind me to back up, because I notice how much room he has behind him. But the toad that looked to big for his own car decided to back up by only a foot. WHERE THE HECK AM I GOING TO GO WITH SUCH LITTLE SPACE! So I said F it, and waited for the car in front of me to finish filling up.
People these days, if you can't drive, sell your vehicle and hop on the MTA.
