#12 - Five Guys I Find Attractive

1. Ryan Gosling - Handsome, Fit, Great Actor, Musician, Tattooed, Sexy..what more could I ask for?



2. Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson - I've figured out that this is my "type" of guy. Except with less muscles. Tanned Skin, Nice Smile, Tall.



3. Ryan Reynolds - I already had a crush on him by the time I saw him in Blade 3, but that movie sealed the deal for me. Plus, he's funny.



4. Josh Hartnett - I've been a fan of Josh for many years. He's not the typical guy I am attracted to but it's something about those eyes. He can be so mysterious.



5. Johnny Depp - Anyone who knows me, knows how much I love this man.




Notable mentions just cause I want to include them go to...
Mark Walhberg
Taye Diggs
Idris Elba
John Slattery
Mekhi Phifer

#11 - My Family

What can I really say about my family? I love my immediate family dearly. The friends which have become my extended family may not be people that I see all the time, or even speak to every day..but I love them just the same. Family to me means support. It means people that will tell you the truth no matter how painful it is. It means someone is always there.

A Change Would Do You Good

Some people are afraid to be single. I, am choosing to embrace it. There's just no reason to fight it anymore, or feel less adequate because of this. I have seen and heard too much lately that makes me realize sometimes love doesn't prevail. From past experiences I know that just because you love someone it doesn't mean you should stay with them. Sometimes you need to grow apart and take the chance that it just may not be meant to be. And if you both really love and want to be with each other now, you need to stop being stupid and start working on the relationship and learn to communicate. Too many arguments occur because of miscommunication.
Equally, I can't understand why some people are in a relationship with someone they don't want to be honest with or communicate with. Why withhold information from each other? Why be with someone if you want attention from someone else?
I've always valued my relationships - though admittedly there haven't been many. I could never fathom being with someone I'm not totally into. I need someone who makes me not want to flirt with other guys or get attention from others. And I guess that's what I'm looking to find. I'm not in a rush to find anything. It's good just to get to know people right now and in turn get to know what I really like in a partner. I think it's also really important to work on myself because I want to portray myself in the truest light. And I hope that the guys I meet or talk to will do the same. Maybe doing that in the beginning will avoid any problems down the line where you feel like you don't recognize the person you're with.
Everyday is a chance for a new beginning. I know a few people who could use one.

#10 - Put My iPod on Shuffle and Write The First Ten Songs

1. Ne-Yo - Can't Stop
2. Omega - Eto Eh Pa' Bailar
3. 50 Cent Ft. Mary J. Blige - All Of Me
4. Shakira - Devocion
5. Lady Gaga - Bad Romance
6. Los Toros Band - Y Es Que Sin Ti
7. Lucy Pearl - La, La
8. Marco Antonio Solis - Amor En Silencio
9. Michael Jackson - Wanna Be Startin' Something
10. Sisqo - Incomplete


I think my iPod could have gotten a lot more random actually. There are a lot of genres missing. And I always keep my iPod on Shuffle unless I want to hear a specific album or artist. With about 4000 songs it's a lot of fun to not know what's coming next or have a song you haven't heard in months pop up.

#9 - How Important I Think Education Is

Education is VERY important! I find it shocking how far in life people get without proper grammar. It really is a shame how poorly some grown ups spell. Not to mention the people who still type lyk dis or LiKe ThIs. That was cute back in JHS, definitely not cute as an adult. I also wonder how people who can't do simple algebra equations without a calculator get around. My math skills may not be the greatest but even if I can't figure out some calculations in my head, I can jot it down on a piece of paper and figure it out that way.

While I do believe that a basic education is vital - by basic I mean High School equivalent - I don't believe everyone needs a College or University education. I personally feel like I wasted a lot of time going to College. I was forced to take a lot of elective classes that had nothing to do with my major. I also had to take math courses and English courses that don't necessarily tie in with my major. Schools do this in order to get more money out of students and it is usually a waste. I would recommend getting a certificate degree or going to a specialised school to study. In these cases most or all of your classes will relate to your area of study.

And if you ever need a refresher on grammar I recommend READING! But stick to classic novels, not trashy novels, or gossip magazines.
