Mental Vacation
I challenge you to a mental vacation.
For one week let go of your worries; smile at old pictures, only talk to people that make you happy, eat exotic foods, wear your fancy clothes, and treat everyday like there is no tomorrow. Enjoy your vacation, and when you come back to reality, you will feel refreshed and ready to take on everything you left behind.
Ready. Set. GO!
People Are People
Do you know what your “friends” are saying about you? To be clear, I’m using “friends” in the loosest sense possible. I’m referring to the people you may talk to when it’s time to “go out”, the people you may be deciding if they’re worth actually “dating”, the people you keep around for no apparent reason, etc..
I can’t speak for everyone else, but I am fully aware that most people have an opinion of me. Sometimes it’s good and sometimes it’s bad. I am a person that takes pride in my character because of how I was raised, my faith in God, and other extra tid-bits of my personality. I know what is wrong. I know what is right. I’ve made interesting and not so interesting decisions in my life. All in all, I’ve been able to stay on the straight and narrow path – deviating from time to time (I’ll attribute the deviance to a necessary life component of learning for yourself).
Word.
The best relationships are the ones you don’t have to think about, the ones that are just there waiting for you after the worst day of your life, willing to agree with you even though they know you’re wrong, but never afraid to challenge you to become a better person or push you toward that good light. Like an unspoken promise to always be there for one another, it isn’t worth proving through some loquacious or formalized speech that is supposed to prove all of the things that really should just go without saying… – Anjli Mehta
Creative Cool: Jooze Juice Cartons
Although this doesn’t actually exist, I thought it was cool.
“Australian design student Yunyeen Yang is the talent behind a neat set of sliced fruit shaped juice cartons by fictional manufacturer, Jooze. Designed as part of a school project, each Jooze packaging is indicative of its flavour inside; a crafty detail encouraging children to consume healthier drinking habits from a young age.” -Michelle Wilding
Go Go Gadget iPhone Camera Shutter Remote
To all my narcissist’s out there… (that was mostly a joke)
As if the front-facing camera on the i-phone didn’t give most cell phone users an unecessary technological upgrade…I present to you the iPhone camera shutter remote ($40)!
The pocket-size Belkin remote is packaged with an iPhone stand to act as a steady, on-the-go tripod. Using Bluetooth on an iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad, you can take still images or video using the remote from up to 30 feet away. This will make group pictures a hell of a lot easier right?

Welcome To The World Blue Ivy Carter
Jay-Z released first pictures of baby Blue Ivy Carter, via his online blog Life + Times. Naturally, the pictures are beautiful and capture the “happiness” factor of child birth.
I’m posting from my phone, so excuse my lack of info/commentary.
Congrats Jay and Bey!
(I think she looks like Juelz!)
Don’t Leave Your Sh*t, OK?
First and foremost, my guy friends crack me up. I can say with complete confidence that I enjoy a deep laugh from a semi-barbaric situation they have encountered, at least twice a week. My most recent gut-buster included a situation where a chick left some of her belongings at my boys house. I’ve decided to share because truthfully I’d love to hear you guys thoughts on the matter.
Situation: My homeboy is in a non-committed relationship with this lady; they are not together and haven’t established boundaries or stipulations to their “friendship”. They have consistent and mostly sexual sleepovers, which for most women is the unspoken “we are exclusive”, however for most men this means nothing. Recently, this lady has started leaving small personal belongings in my homeboys bathroom, bedroom and even living room space. Now, this wouldn’t seem like a bad thing if both of them were aware that they were in a relationship. Clearly to her, they are comfortable and she is “marking her territory”. To him, the psycho b*tch has got to go; how dare she leave anything at HIS house for any of his OTHER friends to find and inquire about…
Here is where the funny part kicks in.
Hilarious Roommate Notes
I’m pretty sure that we have all done the roommate thing once in our life – and we can all agree it was an interesting experience. While blog surfing I came across some really funny “notes” left behind by roommates.
