the Rest is still unwritten

The thought of me graduating early was too much for me to handle!....currently it is still being "looked at" but chances are I may have to return to do 2 credits of capstone. More time to prepare to go into the real world i guess, but i am still praying that i get to leave this country soon. But what I am returning to, is clearly a country that is still locked in the effing dark ages because we are currently being run by a few racist idiots; but lets not get into that..politics gets me so upset. My hope is that more Trinidadians will read.....yes Trinis have a tendency to go off of "hearsay" and formulate opinions. I read the papers everyday...even when I am not in to country; currently Jamaica is appealing to Trinidad to invest in their country.......STEUPS EH! anyways if I continue this will turn into a 4 page rant.
On a lighter note the Trinis on campus had a Carnival Party! we had a good turn out and even had americans jumping and waving flags to Destra and Machel :)
I tried for the first time a coconut stew chicken and it was soooo good! I could get married now i think!...just need to perfect pelau and I good to go!

Mission Accomplished

Ok so remember when I realized I was fat! well today I am happy to say that the diet paid off! my waist is back down to what I am used to and I am down the 5 pounds I wanted to lose...all i need to do now is tone and stuff
contentment!
Life as a fat person was not fun..I had to be constantly covering my stomach!...I say NO MORE!
Now I can get that navel piercing! but knowing my paranoid ass I will chicken out AGAIN as I have doing since 2007 when I had permission from my mother!
P.S>>for YOU :Life is perfect! you are Perfect and you make me smile ALOT!

i'm in st. joe trick

Hey peeps!
So it's spring break and due to (long boring story) unforeseen  circumstances I remained in St. Joseph , MN and did not go to DC as planned
At least the snow is melting right!
gotta look at the glass half full!
For the past two weeks I have been focusing on school to be honest...even though Biochem is kicking my ass!
I fixed by Dell so i'm less dependent on mini baby and relaxed my hair...which is always a plus!
I ordered a BB so hopefully it  gets here tmr!...I have lots of important people to BB chat.
I have given up shopping at Vickies (VS)  for lent and its been hard....like today I was extremely bored and wanted to shop
but I couldnt!...broke my heart so,
instead juju asked me to go on youtube to learn how to sew weave so I could fix her track....so I did that...got sad again....So I went to sleep instead and wasn't very productive.
I decided to go to the dance studio soon to relieve stress so i'm excited!

Love Dija

change of tone

so this post is a little different since for once I am gonna try to be serious. It is a matter that I have tried to ignore but every time I think about it (and it does cross my mind a lot) I get sad, disappointed, annoyed......just confused really.
So I was seeing this guy at my school since October I guess, I liked him, he liked me but somewhere around mid Christmas we stopped speaking...well i must admit I did not push it..because i wasnt sure i was returning this semester, so i was pretty much cool with leaving things as they were. When I came back however we seem to have started where we left of!...ahh contentment
Only after he told me something really private he stop talking to me
Now I have a SERIOUS problem when people stop talking to me; I'd rather you say " hey i dont wanna talk right now!" instead of me trying to communicate whether it be texts, or fb or phone calls and you not responding. Breakups are a part of life..correct and I am mature enough to accept when something is over.
I avoided the bar, where we'd hang out because I knew I need time to get over it. After 2 weeks of being ignored i finally got a hint and left it alone.
To celebrate me just being happy again i returned to the bar only to see him!
fine!...it is a public place
But no he had to come speak with me and had the AUDACITY to inquire about the recent silence between us
At this point i snapped!
the point of this is that people are still blinded by race. The person in question; even though he likes me, the problem is that his family is racist. yea you read correctly. In the year 2011 we are still not colourblind; i guess i should know better since in my own country we have racial segregation around election time.
i miss him but life goes on...however i think as a whole we have bigger issues than the fact that we're not the same race. I guess being mixed having both indian and black family; i see things differently.
But, things end and I am ready to move on; I know God has a lot in store for me ....hopefully with less ignorant people
