Have you had one of those years???

Where you are trying to force yourself to truly 'see' yourself.  It's not you it's me ...

I'm trying to feel good about myself.  To accept myself imperfect as I maybe and to stop comparing myself to other people since I always come up short.

2010 was such a hard year with my grandparent's dieing months apart, my trying to pay off the credit card debts my parent's charged in my name and just keeping my head above water.

My goals for the year is to keep working out so that I can be healthy, to try and meet a great guy, pay off my personal debts and my parent's debt in my name.

L'oreal HIP Makeup

I was recently at CVS and noticed that L'Oreal HIP Makeup Line had some of the items are clearance with 75% off!

I purchased all the makeup but not the jelly lipgloss couldn't find it anywhere (boo!).  Will post photos of me with my new makeup over the next few months.  I'm going to try to upload video tutorial of my application style. 

2011 State of the Union Address

I just finished watching the President's address to our nation and I was impressed. I loved that he is talking about reinvesting in our nation, new industries and education. President Obama is correct that the old way is gone forever. Being able to get a good factory job as a high school dropout or graduate. We need to invest in modernizing out school system as well as how we educate our teachers.

I noticed the that Republican Boehner didn't look pleased with all of the points that President Obama made. I think a bit of sour grapes since President Obama hit on all the high points they wanted to score on but he stole their thunder.
I just read this article in O Mag (2/11) and it got me thinking about my life, 2011, choices, where I want to go from here ..

  1. What do I want to do for the rest of my life
  2. Is it me (personality, looks, behavior, etc) am I the problem that is keeping me from marriage/long term relationship/love
  3. Should I move out of LA so I can afford to live (buy a home, emergency account, travel, retirement savings, etc)
  4. Am I as quirky/weird as some of my co-workers/friends think
