In time, work, when it comes to cash what is your worth! How do you measure your daily worth no matter the circumstances. The Daily Worth is a great website for women (men you can check it out as well) for figuring out your finances. They send you tips on a daily basis on how to budget your money and how to be more financial savvy. I think this is a great website and you the Fashionista/Frugalista should check it out!
Happy 2010!
Oh my goodness…
I have not posted in a couple of weeks! Craziness! Such is life. So, many different things to tend to with the Holiday Season and just life in general. Hope all has been well with you! All is well with me, sorry no juicy details for you. 🙂 So, I have a few tips for this Holiday Season that you can take into this New Year:
1) If you haven’t already done so, don’t go crazy with the last-minute shopping. Not worth it! It drives a person insane and for what. Stay calm, in all seriousness, the best gift is LOVE! That’s what everyone will be getting this year, so you better like it lol! Or should I say LOVE IT!
2) Don’t make any resolutions. You’ll most likely break them. Just be decisive in your actions with each individual situation that arises. Take it as you go.
3) Oh, I said this on my fanpage already, but its worth repeating: Patience, Preparation and Persistence are the key components to staying in this journey of life. If you’re lacking in one of these areas then you know what you need to tackle. What are you waiting for…hop to it!
4) Make every moment count! Even when you don’t want to. Stay present, don’t continue to live in the past nor live for the future, how about living in the present and now. I know it’s hard right, but doable!
Ok, well that wraps up my Sunday Fashionista Bible Class! Hope you enjoyed today’s sermon…we shall reconvene next week Sunday lol!
Ciao!
Amanda Knox Convicted
Do you all remember that American College student that was charged with murder of her roommate in Italy? The trial lasted a very long year. They convicted her of murder, sentencing her to 26 yrs in prison. Her ex-boyfriend was sentenced to 25 years. It was a very strange case from the start with allegations of a twisted sex game that ended in the death of Meredith Kercher. Read more about her story at WSJ.

Same-Sex Marriage A No Go In NYC
Touchy subject for most. I mean can we just allow people to be happy? No, yes maybe? Why are people so hell-bent in making others miserable. Think about it, not just same-sex marriage but in many aspects of life. People make things so difficult and for what exactly. Not everything should be given a rubber stamp of approval. But, if two women or men feel that they make each other happy enough to marry each other is it really my business or anyone else. I know plenty of heterosexuals that have no business being married, let alone contemplation of the idea but we allow them to do so. Can we just live life and allow others to do the same! NY, I’m surprised. SMH!

The President’s Plan
Do you think President Obama’s plan is the answer? Did he put all his efforts into Afghanistan, just as Bush did in Iraq? I mean what can you logically decide to do in such a situation. His administration has inherited this war. How do you make a wrong, right? Can you? Or do you just strategize and try and determine the best decision to make for not only the American people, but the Afghan people and all involved. Making a decision about a war is more than a head scratcher. I think it would be great to just depart, bring the troops home. But, then there are always consequences, for instance no civilian structure for the Afghan people would be in place. There will always be a “but” or “consider our troops” statement etc. Either way you slice it, it’s difficult. Let’s just pray on the situation. That’s my answer for everything!

Fela!
The HOT new musical about the Nigerian singer, composer and activist, Fela Kuti. The musical was choreographed by the very accomplished Bill T. Jones and produced by Jay-Z and Will & Jada Pinkett Smith. I have heard rave reviews from my cousin, Aunt and girlfriend. It’s a must see for the holidays. I believe you can get orchestra seats for 20% off …I’ll let you know where and how! Check the link for more info!
