Faux Hawk Twist Galore






Very, very, late on posting this. But, I have to say this is one of my favorite styles I've ever done! Although it took up a lot of time and electricity from using the heating pad to heal my sore arms. I am quite impressed with myself for having the patience and the strength to stand up the whole time to complete this look. However, I had to finish the top the next morning This style will be done more often, not anytime soon though.  Hope you like the style because I definitely think its a good look and my Granny would be proud ;)

New App, Yay Me!!


You know, everyday I fall in love with my Ipad more and more. Reason being is because today I found a new app, thanks to Oprah! I was on Oprah's OWN Network website and one of the advertisements was an downloadable app called Flipboard. Flipboard is an interactive online news board that features many different news outlets from Bloomberg News to Elle magazine. Its so cool that you can just tweet it or post it on Facebook without all the hassle of logging in every time you find something interesting. To some it up, its kind of like the Pinterest of articles. But anyway tonight I found a very interesting article about getting your company to transition to social media. Being that I consider myself a little old school, and not really into all the technological stuff of today getting with the times for business purposes is a must, check out the article!

Chipotle On The Rise!


 I just bet that over this past week Chipotle has gotten a lot of new customers.  Ever since they aired that commercial the night of the Grammy's, Chipotle has gotten more reviews than the Grammy's itself. When I saw the commercial I was like "wow what just happened?" Kind of in awe at first but after getting my thoughts together I was proud of Chipotle and their efforts to inform the community of the issues we face dealing with processed foods and the unfair treatment of animals. In the article below Sahil Patel informs us that McDonald's is now trying to step their game up as far as "gestational stalls." My question is, why does it take one commercial to give McDonald's a wake-up call on how terrible their food is? Morgan Spurlock made the documentary "Super Size Me" and they did not jump up and change a thing!  From my own personal view, McDonald's can make all the changes they want, I'm still not eating a burger or a nugget ever again! Two words, Chipotle wins!

Scared to Graduate? Well not me.

Well it's about that time to start applying for jobs/internships and I only have about 4 more months to have something set in stone so when I do graduate I have a job lined up. Lately people have been asking me if I'm scared of graduating and I am quick to tell them "Uh heck no, I've been here long enough !" I don't know maybe I'll get to that "cold feet" point soon but right now I am remaining positive about everything that will happen for me. I know something great will come into play just have to be patient and aware of what needs to be done. Sometimes I can be too laid back about certain situations but for this one I rather not stress myself out about the unknown. It says in the bible to not worry about tomorrow because it will worry about itself. Each day has a problem of its own. And with that being said I'm just going to take one day at a time, you should to!

God Bless!
