Lessons In Hair
On Saturday I went and had some cornrows done to my hair and I realized something as soon as it was finished: this hairstyle is a great way to scratch that BC itch.
I LOVE having short, cropped hair. Everyday I consider chopping my hair all off and rocking the low ceasar or some stylized short do like her.

@SESweeting: #OlympicThoughts Does Shaun White use Devacurl?

This may sound stupid...
The idea is to only eat until you’re no longer hungry rather than until you’re stuffed.

I am going to simply just enjoy each moment I spend with a guy. I’m not going to spend each moment counting down a pre-determined amount of time that I deem acceptable for deciding whether or not...

Stop knocking the Johnny-Come-Latelies .
I know I am in no position to tell someone to lay off of the snark, but let’s give people a break here.
