I know I'm Gonna Get a Lot of Shyt for This! LOL


Okay....So I'm not a band wagon jumper or anything like that, but like 2 weeks or so ago, I finally sat down and listened to the Jonas Brothers. I am EXTREMELY surprised to say that they do not suck at all!

Now I have not been under a rock (that long..lol), plus I have a niece and nephews, and on top of that fact, I am a closet Disney Channel watcher....I knew who they were...but I really didn't have any inkling or desire to listen to their stuff...other then the stuff that you get beat in the head with on the Disney Channel.

What actually made me want to listen to their albums was one day, I was getting my Disney Channel fix, and I stumbled across an episode of 'Jonas' right before I was leaving out to go somewhere...so while I was watching...I found myself chuckling on a good couple of parts! I was thinking to myself...'them boys are kinda funny!'...then I had to go...

Well, like the next day or so, they ended up having a marathon of all the shows so far, so yes I tuned in and watched it! I was so pleasantly surprised! It was really funny! The shows that I saw had a couple of different songs in them that were nice, and that damn theme song, 'Live to Party' is definitely one of those songs that get stuck in your head...but not in a bad way...so I took to one of my favorite pastimes, youtube, and started looking them up....I then came across a live performance on Jimmy Kimmel of their song 'World War III', and I loved it! The horns were AMAZING, their voices were on point, the lyrics were good and their stage presents was massive! I could tell by that one clip that they know how to put on a good show!

To make my already long story short, I spent some more time looking thru their stuff and going into Jonas Brothers overload. I listened to their albums, and their 3rd, 'Lines, Vines, & Trying Times' was really amazing. The others were good too, I mean you can bob your head to them in your Ipod, but you can really tell they are maturing on the 3rd album...Needless to say I copped the albums and put them on my Ipod...

I seriously think it took me so long to actually listen to the Jonas Brothers for a good couple of reasons....#1 I think the age group they are affiliated with was way out of my demographic....#2 them tight ass clothes bothered me....#3 they are 16, 20, & 21...not to say yungin's can't make good music...but that has been the case these days...and #4 I thought they were extra bubble-gum bc they came from the Disney Channel...which I really think they get a bad wrap for...I guess I should judge a book by its cover because the Jonas Brothers just made a new fan.

P.S. - NICK JONAS AND I HAVE THE SAME BIRTHDAY!!! So you know he is AMAZING!
*WINK*!!!

B. Scott Speak the TRUTH!!



Those of you that know me, know that I LOVE me some B. Scott! Well the other day, he posted a vlog called 'B. Scott Says Don't Be Afraid To Be Alone'...and babyyyy....HE SPOKE THE TRUTH!!! In it, he talks about how it's okay to be alone and how people are with other people not bc they want to be, but they feel like they have to be for some reason...and I couldn't agree more.

650 LB Virgin Loses 410 Pounds In 26 Months


Okay..now I don't even really know what to say! My sister told me to watch this show the other night called '650 lb Virgin' on TLC and I was literally FLOORED! David Smith, now 32 was weighing in at 650 pounds in 2007 and he is now 410 pounds lighter!!! To put the icing on the cake, HE LOST ALL OF THE WEIGHT 100% NATURALLY! No bands, no bypass...NO NOTHING! That shyt is just UNBELIEVABLE to me! That is strength and will-power that I would have never dream was possible!

LOOK AT HIM!!!



HE IS TRULY AWESOME!! I don't even know homeboy and I a SO proud of him!

Now, being a member of the Fat People Society...and could seriously benefit from dropping 100 pounds or so....but he has inspired me to take the steps I need to start getting my weight off...Now, I'm not 650 lbs, and I'm in okay health..but me lugging around this extra weight isn't good for me. There is whole bunch of things I wanna do that I can't bc of my weight and I don't want weight to be the reason why I don't or can't do them. At 23 years old, God willing, I have a whole long life ahead of me and I wanna get it poppin! LOL!

I'm sure he had the money and the time to devote to his journey but I'm trying to get my life together to do the same. The best part about his story is that the person who helped him, personal trainer and fitness wiz, Chris Powell, is now David's best friend. That is so awesome!

Please Please Please visit 650poundvirgin.blogspot.com and read about David's story. He is amazing and I wish him the best! :)

BIGGEST LOSER MY ASS! LOL!


O How I've Missed U Blogspot...

Did you miss me too? I know you did! Well It's been a long time and I've got lots and lots to talk about, which will be coming in spurts throughout the week. I know I have to do another section of my music thingy...which I'll probably do 'The Bad' next. I'm going to have some good entertaining stuff coming up...so STAY TUNED!

I've been having a lot of personal stuff going on with me...That's really why I haven't been feeling the blogging thing at the minute...from my car clunking out on me, to 2 of my uncle's having strokes and just about the same week...life has certainly been dealing me the breaks...but I'm blessed and highly favored...and that's the one thing that keeps me going...So I'M BACK! I'm goin try to get on here a lot more often, tho I don't know how often it will be...No Promises K :)....LOL
