A "frienemy" is someone who pretends to be your friend only to intentionally want to screw you over in the long run. They are a friend but also an enemy. Like someone who tells you it's a good idea to tell your boss that you need some time off, when they know your boss was just complaining about how if one more person asks for time off, she/he will be pissed! I think I worded that wrong, but ya know what I mean right? I don't know where this term came from, but I would assume that it would have originated somewhere with high school kids. You would think that people wouldn't act this way as adults? Haaaah yeah right!
I hope I don't have any "frienemies". I don't think I do. I'm pretty selective when it comes to my close friends. The minute I sense a weird vibe from someone, I pretty much shut down to them and usually don't ever open back up. There's no need for unnecessary drama. If someone is playing you or taking advantage of you, what is the point of having them in your life and wasting your time? Maybe that's a harsh way to look at things, but that's just how I feel. So just something to think about...I hope you don't have anyone like this in your life. Have a good Monday.

Okay so don't laugh at me for probably liking one of the lamest shows on TV right now... But I really like the show High School Reunion... its where they reunited the class of 87 and stick a bunch of single, crazy people in a mansion in Hawaii to "reunite"
Anyway, there's this guy and his ex-wife there, they split up because his best friend (who is also there) slept with his wife! OUCH... right? Obviously this happened years ago but he has never been able to forgive him. I don't know how I would deal if my best friend did that to me. I would want to eventually forgive but it would be pretty damn hard! They've been friends for 20 something years and for this to happen. It's just so wrong! Has something like this ever happened to you? I think with time I would be able to be civil with my best friend but fixing our friendship would definitely not be my "to do list", that's for sure. I get it people make mistakes, but where is the cut-off for forgiving those mistakes?
This weekend I am "planning" on keeping it real mellow. Don't really have plans for tonight except for the gym and my weekly hip-hop class. I don't know if you know? But I'm a pretty good dancer! Hahaha.... Tomorrow is my brother's birthday so I'm going to OC to hang with my wonderful family. Have a great weekend and if you find yourself channel surfing and find High School Reunion, I guarantee you'll be hooked!
Well wouldn't it be nice if we were all perfect. Actually it might be kinda borning... I don't know about you but I am such a perfectionist. I love a challenge but I love to master it even more. This is one of those qualities where I believe it to be good and bad. It's great to be such a perfectionist that you don't do things half a$* ya know? But, when it becomes so much of an obsession that you get frustrated with other people for not doing things perfectly.... Ehhhh that's not good.
What is perfection? Is it always being on time? Or is it getting straight As? Or is it always knowing what to say to your significant other to cheer them up? I think perfection has many definitions and is different for every person. I've learned that I need to have more patience when it comes to perfection. Especially when it comes to expecting others to do things how I would want them done. It's good to slow down every now and then. Have a great Thursday.

Sometimes things may happen in our lives either between family, friends or significant others that hurt us. Maybe it was a mistake that was never supposed to happen or a feeling that one of us had but never mentioned. Time passes and I think that it will eventually become too late to really tell someone how you feel. There's no way for that other person to have any idea about what's going on in your head if you never tell them.
Isn't it the worst when you're arguing with your bf or gf and all of a sudden they bring up how it really DID bother them that you went on that Vegas trip with the girls last summer? Ummmm hello... why didn't you just tell me then? I've had a few cases where maybe I should have been more honest with someone about my feelings and now too much time has passed to go back. So I always think it's important to tell the people you love that YOU LOVE THEM. If something is on your mind, just have the courage to express your feelings because there's nothing worse than thinking about how things could have been if you had just been more upfront from the very beginning.
Have a good Wednesday...xoxo,

I just love to surround myself with good people. Riiiiiight? Why would someone want kick it with someone that stirs up drama? I have some of the most amazing friends in the world and the way I see it... we only have one life and for most of us very little free time. I don't know about you but I'm pretty busy and whenever I get a chance to hang out with my friends I love to make the most of it.
I think it's safe to say that my birthday celebrations are over. I think it was about 4 days straight of banananess. And I loved every minute of it because I was surrounded by the people I love and they all made an effort come together and celebrate with me! Some even traveled from different cities. I'm blessed to have such great friends.... GOOD PEOPLE!
Have a wonderful day... Hopefully no Jokes are pulled on you.
