i haven't blogged in seven days! i missed you!!!! it was just one of those times where i had to live life so i could give you something to read about. it's story time!
i wen't to my friend's birthday party and had an amazing time. and of course he's a LEO. you should always look your best when you're going out. in these new age of social networking and profile pictures, it's such a disappointment when you're 'virtually' better looking than you are in person. i'm just saying stop wasting your time photoshopping your pictures and finding the perfect angle when you could spend a little more time doing your hair and practicing to walk in your heels.
furthermore, if you are trying to get the attention of a man, dancing on him like you're a snake charmer from Aladdin in the middle of my conversation with him is neither polite nor attractive. i'm not telling you what to do, i'm telling you what NOT to do. first of all, why would you want to share his attention with me? he's in a conversation and unless you're Shakira, Beyonce or a really attractive stripper, you will not get his undivided attention while he's speaking with me. while you're dipping it low, but not too low, because you can barely balance in your heels, he's giving me the 'help me' glare over your left shoulder through your see through side ponytail. i'm all for going what you want but step 1 to getting a man at a social event begins at home: LOOK YOUR ABSOLUTE BEST. your mediocre attempt to dress nice which i've noticed for some young women just means, not wearing sneakers anymore, will not catch your guy's eye over my appropriate and put together ensemble, even if he has absolutely no sexual interest in me. guys are visual creatures and they'd rather stand next to a beautiful woman they're NOT f.cking than stand next to an unattractive one that they can smash in the bathroom.
another thing. no jean jackets to the lounge. NONE. i don't give a f.ck what you see in a magazine or on the runway, don't show up to the lounge looking like you're going to a BBQ. you don't look fashion forward, you look stupid. everyone is dressed in their sunday best and here you come looking like a denim disaster. i want better for you.
one more thing. make eye contact. ladies, there's nothing that screams insecure more than your inability to look another woman in the eye. whether you like me or not, if the situation calls for eye contact, make some. i might not like your ass back, but i'll respect you.
but all in all, the celebration was fun, probably because i wasn't interested or looking for any guy there. i've never been the boy crazy type but i'll tell you this, going for what you want is admirable but it's not enough. presentation is key. don't ever let your confidence surpass your ability to actually be great.
oh! i went to the movies too! i was so excited because i hardly ever get to go and i'm usually less interested in what's showing but i saw Planet of the Apes. i never saw the original and i'm not going to give away the movie but i had fun even though there were many similarities to slavery in there. maybe that's the critical thinker in me but i call it how i see it.
last but certainly not least, i spent some quality time with some quality people. honest conversations are the absolute funniest. it's hard for me to take offense from someone that knows me and loves me anyway.
