Tousle my Hair, so it can be Scrunchy!

Step 1: Shampoo, don't use conditioner it softens your hair and makes your hair drop before you even get the chance to scrunch it. Rinse out completely!
Step 2: Towel dry
Step 3: BOTTOMS UP, like Trey Songz lol; Push sections of hair from bottom, UP!
Step 4: Optional -- Light Hair Spray
Step 5: Secure fly a ways (if you have layers like MWAH :) & Tie all the "pushed up hair" in a neat bun
THEN SET IT AND FORGET IT
You can let it out in 15-20 mins if your as impatient as myself, so it's still slightly damp. Tousle shake put on your favorite Lady Gaga track and bounce around lmao Hair spray it if you hadn't in step 4. And well those are my crazy techniques, I've heard of people just scrunching it with their hands without tying it up, but apparently that dosen't work for me; My hair just falls flat >.< AANDDD! I bought Tousle Me Softly Conditioner & Shampoo and both have the same effect as me just using any kind of shampoo. 
Here's what I achieve:  


VOILA! 
Messy Beachy Big Filled with volume Sexy Hair ;)

Lashing out..



Doing major cleaning and organizing and I found the box with the pictures of my Grandfather. Alongside the pictures were the white "orni" I wore to the funeral. I opened out the orni, and out dropped a tissue I probably cried my eyes out on and the eulogy I wrote for him. His unexpected death hit our family so hard it feels like just today I found out that he was gone... The day before when I was outside helping my Dad work on my brother's car I said to him
It's still so hard Dad. and he looked up at me and said "I know..."
Half of the sadness & anger remaining, isn't because he's gone, (I already know he's in a better place now) it's what's taking place now after... Seems like the people who caused him hurt, still act as though he never existed. But I know, and my family knows, that we have no regrets and haven't caused him any pain. I feel like the spontaneous trip (which my dad sprung on us last minute after he booked the tickets) to Trinidad for Christmas 2009 was priceless. I know it's selfish, but sometimes I even feel like we were destined to be the last ones to enjoy an extended period of time with him.

I just miss him so much. I think about him everyday. I also think about the people who are possible descendants of the devil that made a man so humble & near-perfect produce the tears that fell down and sadness that burdened his heart. My Grandpapa is seeing everything you have done, and everything you are continuing to do & he's up there with God who I'm sure has not overlooked your continuing malicious deeds. I'm Hindu so I believe strongly in Karma, and I hope you're ready to receive what's about to come around for you.

Not too big on laughing at people, but right now the situation you put yourself in, is hilarious... I know without a doubt in my mind that the problems you're facing are well deserved.
dedicated to my loving grandfather... mere dosti mera pyar. we miss you.

Biggest Regret. [5 yrs ago]


I hate people for getting too caught up in listening to their friends waay too much. And I was among those people. I know it seems dumb to still feel guilty over what I did 5 yrs ago but I just can't seem to get over it. All I know is there's no turning back time. No fixing it.

So here's what happened. (The sparknotes version):

Way bacckkk in the day lol, after my first year of high school, I had to transfer to a new high school because it was much closer to me. My brother was actually starting his freshman year at the same school too! First day on the bus and I saw these two west indian kids (and boy was it a sight to see, as there weren't too many of us in that area, at that time). At first I thought in my head, look at them flirting around they must be boyfriend and girlfriend.. and they always got off at the same stop... YUCK! Little did I know, that the same girl and guy were about to become a big part of my life. After a few days, the girl had a class with my brother and started talking to him, and since we were all on the same bus we all eventually started to get to know each other. I later found out that the boy I assumed she was flirting with, was her cousin.. and also that we had been talking on myspace (yeahh i know, that's how you knowww it was waay back lol) over the summer before school started. And without a doubt I developed a crush! I couldn't help it, he was suchaaa gentleman. I gotta say, he won me over with his sexxiiness and the charming ways, & myspace comments he left me lol. A couple of weeks into school I met another "fellow" Trini girl and we became friends. FAST. Our parents even became pretty good friends too. One day while my family and I were over at her house, she was telling me that the guy I was crushing on broke her sister's heart [won't specify how]. So as evil 15 year old bitches, we decided that I would make KoalaBear (names changed to protect privacy) fall for me, and then break HIS heart so he'd know how it feels. So I made him wait, and wait, and wait until finally he asked me during school. After school before we got on the bus, everyone was sitting on the bus looking out the window, and I broke up with him. Almost loud enough so that everyone on the bus would hear. =( It was the dumbest thing I had EVER done. And I regret it til this day. KoalaBear had actually became my best friend throughout my sophomore & junior year. And I realized too late that after all the douchebags I had dated that year that the perfect guy was in front of my eyes the entire time. I just couldn't see it. I miss him soo much, and I always tell my best friend, his cousin, that I want the best for him no hoochies / sluts / other trashy birds . YUCK! And I joke around that we're going to get married someday...

Anyway I just favorited the 'I am in love song' the one bollywood song he liked the most. (Yeah, I still remember). & that's what made me think about all this. I don't think there was anyone who made me laugh as much as he did. And I just wish I wouldn't have done what I did, because maybe today it would've been different...

Lesson Learned: Don't follow friends. Follow your heart... I didn't, and look where it got me.

From Ghetto Barbie to Just Barbie.

Ever since I was little, I was always excited to go to the doctor and looked forward to every single appointment. Especially when it was Danny's turn to get his shot, and for me to watch & laugh. lol.
Yesterday I visited the doctor, and got an accurate reading of my weight which was only 3 lbs. short of a 100. And before you start with the Anorexic Bitch comments, I'd like to start my defense with the fact that I'm only like 5'2. If that.


I know it's shallow to care about appearances but I'm not happy with my weight on the outside, and how it's making me feel on the inside. No not emotionally. It's actually kind of hard to explain..
I've always been pressured about my weight by my, at times, overbearing mother and little-to-not-supportive-brother who (i'm sure mean well) but always seem to have something to say about my physique. To some, I'm pretty lucky.. I've been gaining weight in all the "right areas" (i.e. hips, butt) while my tummy remains slender. At any rate, she feels that it's necessary to makes some drastic variations in my diet. And in the beginning, I was all for it, until the wheat products were sitting in the refrigerator amongst all the donuts, cakes, and other grocery items there to set me up and taunt me. I'm gonna be REALLY honest, I've been thinking about that chocolate covered donut ALLL DAY lol And I even went as far as to open the fridge with minimal noise and try to "steal" the donut but put it back out of guilt.


I know it's not going to be easy, but I'm sure it'll all be worth it. Esp for my cardio which could really use some t.l.c bootcamp right now to get some new red blood cells in :) Anyways like always, you will be kept posted and updated regularly (with pictures, vlogs, etc.) Will I be able to fight the temptation? Guess you AND I will both find out lol.

Victims of Online Scam (no, this is not a scam)

Okay so I think I'm going to start a support group. Right here. On my blog. Lol JK 
" OMGSh, this sucks " is all that came out of my mouth every five seconds. [First stage: Denial]
[Stage 2: Anger] was immediately effective after I realized that the part that I ordered for the car was from a bogus company. 
I skipped [Stage 3: bargaining], I knew at this point it was too late for God to help me out :)
[Stage 4: Grief & Stress] I felt vulnerable, taken advantage of (no seriously) lol. It was crazy! Nothing like this had ever happened to me before so I keep thinking, what should I do? who do I talk to? And my 1st instinct was to call my Dad beforehand before he got home from work so he wouldn't be as mad. But instead I skipped that idea and decided to seek professional help from a friend who's like an older brother ((name is withheld from the blog to respect privacy :)) And with Google on our side we were able to find government and state sites where you can file an Internet Fraud Report, which sounds kinda silly... but I'm pretty sure if this happened to you, you wouldn't want it to happen to anyone else. I'm not hopeful, not looking for anything in filing the report [Stage 5: Acceptance (my ass!)], except the reassurance of knowing that I saved YOU GUYS from being a victim of internet fraud; On behalf of you all in advance, I shall thank myself. 


You're very much welcome :)
lmao
