2014 Was My Test.... NOW this is my TESTimony

God I Get It - http://youtu.be/cO-tF8EklQg

All the Crappy things that 2014 had to offer.....

- I was in a crappy relationship (I complained about this is many blogs...). It was like sucking the life out of my soul.
- I HATED my current job situation.
- My father fell and broke his neck. (Yes! His NECK!!) He spent most of 2014 in Richmond with rehab, surgery, and slew of meds to keep straight.
- That crappy relationship ended, around the same time my Dad broke his neck. Talk about supportive, Right? (I won't go in here... I've hashed this shit out enough... see my previous videos!)
- I pretty much quit my job.... at the very last possible second just turned in a letter resignation. No new job or no real plan. Talk about stepping out on FAITH!
- The guy that I was in a crappy relationship with is now magically back love with his ex.... yea the girl who beat up him and his car that first few months we were together (I'm sure I blogged about it) and he continuously couldn't stay away from but told me not worry about... I should've listened to my intuition.
- I realized that MY problem was me and not him (He still has his own issues but MY problem was more so with me and what I accepted). Hmmph that was hard to accept and still hard to accept.
- Oh! Did I mention that I quit my job with no new job!!! Still no new job in August... hell no new job 2 weeks before school started.
- A realization that a situation where you have VOLUNTEERED so much of your time, energy, and money doesn't appreciate your commitment.

My list seems short when I type it but it sure wasn't short living it... Especially considering most of this happened  between March and August and on top of my normal crazy life!

It Sounds Good So I Say It!

Do I really want a man?!?! FYI- I don't have any clue what happened at the end of my video.

Now if an awesome one crosses my path, I'd be a fool not to grab him. Just not looking or feeling like a need one.

Friday Night Date Night... the Shade Room

The Hardest Thing for Me to Accept in 2014!

Everyone doesn't see your shine and value your shine!

What has been the hardest for me to accept is that the one you want to see your shine the most (and should see your shine) may not think you do enough.

If they don't see your value they don't deserve you!

Forever Doesn't Last

So Jasmine Sullivan's single is fire!! Check it out below! It sums up my 2014. Check out my video and reflection and even me hitting a few horrible notes! LOL

"It became painfully clear... I tried to believe... most times we were miserable... when I think of the pain and I realize I better off by myself... forever doesn't last too long these days!"

Job Search 2014

As I embarked on new job search this summer, it meant a bitter sweet (more sweet) end of a chapter of my life. I learned soooooooo much from previous work experience. It definitely made me a better teacher and a better person in some ways.
On to the next one...

100 Days of Happy!

Malia and I are going to tackle 100 Days of Happy!! Let's see how this goes!! We can both definitely come up with 100 days worth of HAPPY stuff!! (disregard my wild hair... this was before I stopped transitioning. )

Life in Transition

Like my hair was... my life is currently in "transition"...

Qualities

I was told to write the vision and make it plain.... that's what I am doing!!

Check out my vision for MY husband designed by God for ME!!  I previously wrote a blog about My Type...check to see if they have changed.  

Hair Journey

Soooooo I'm in the process (well was) of finding my hair! Check out my video on my natural journey/discovery. You probably have and will see some videos with some transitioning hair fails ... but oh well. I am not my hair. LOL

Please peep the before (video) and after (pic). Thank you Jesus for being a make-up brush and lip gloss!!

P.S. I FINALLY cut off the permed ends. It ended up being way more than I thought. 0_____o My hair is definitely not the length from the pic at the top. LOL

Poisonous Relationships

Some relationships do more harm than good in life. You find yourself addicted and the addiction is ruining who you are. Hopefully you end your toxic relationship before you are sitting on the floor of a shower wanting to be saved and one hit away from your demise.

Reasons Why My Last Relationship Crashed and Burned

So may last relationship crashed and burned. Here is my take on what happeed.. Lesson learned but no love lost.

I was far from perfect in this relationship but who is. I did attempt to be good for him and to him.

Now I know a few things. I should not to roll with potential. Take a man for where he is currently and I need him to be ready. Trust is super important and he and I need to be friends. Real friends; he needs to be bestie material. Also, everyone won't be willing to do for you, what you do for them.

As good as I looked in that tiny dress, the "winds" blew and I'll never forget the feeling. 

I should ALWAYS be the only woman in the room... ESPECIALLY if I look like this...

Free

*Singing* "Ain't no feeling like being freeeee." 

Recently I had to cut off a few things. After that life has been AMAZING... even with no job. lol Sometimes you need to let go of things beating you down and holding you down and back. Please disregard my appearance in the video... lol.

Feeling free from it all on the beautiful beach of Maui!
