Music!

So I have realized that most radio stations do not really play that much music in the mornings and afternoons which makes me happy that I have a 12 disc changer in my car. I do love listening to Channel 96.1 in the mornings to listen to Ace & TJ (they are hilarious...if you've never listened to them you should)  on my hour ride to school but on the way home  I always end up listening to CD's. The other day while driving home I realized that I have a very wide range of music in my CD player. So here are the CD's/Artist that I have in there right now and one of the songs I like on the CD:

1. Saving Able- Missisippi Moonshine
2. 3oh3- House Party
3. Down With Webster- Whoa is Me
4. Uncle Kracker- Smile
5. Corey Smith- Carolina, Maybe Next Year ( I really cant decied on just one from him)
6. Bruno Mars- Grenenade
7. Enrique Iglesias- I like it
8. Nickelback- This means war or Bottoms Up
9. Lil Wayne Carter 3- Pretty much any...Ms. Carter, Lollipop etc...
10. Lonely Island- The Creep, Pirates of the Carriabean
11. A mixed CD with country and Rap on it
12. Jake Owen- I'll go anywhere with you

Depending on the mood that I am in I always have something to listen to. So if you have not heard one of the artist you should check them out on youtube you may like them you may not!

ME :)

Since I am writing this blog I guess I should tell you a little about me. So here is a list of a few things about me!


1. I will be graduating May 2012 from University of North Carolina at Charlotte with my Bachelors of Science- Accounting. I started my freshman year at Western Carolina University majoring in Athletic Training but realized it was not for me and decided I would rather be closer to home so I transferred to UNCC.


2. I am now on my 3rd car! I totaled my first car in a wreck. I love the car I have now which is a Camaro. I have always wanted one and it is AWESOME!! My other dream car is a Jeep Grand Cherokee and I want it to be pink :) 


3. My fave color is PINK!!! I pretty much have something on that has pink on it or my nails are painted pink.


4. Continuing from #3 I do my own nails. I do not see any point in going out and paying $25 to get someone else to paint them when I can do them at home with an $8 bottle of nail polish and get so many uses out of it (but i never use the whole bottle...does anyone?). I love doing creative designs and I get complimented on them and people can not believe I do them myself. The only time I could see paying to get them done is on special occasions such as being in a wedding or formal dances.


5. I LOVE Nicholas Sparks books!!!!! And movies!!! I have 14 out of 17 of his books! The reason I do not have his other three books is because I saw the movies before I started reading his books. Next time he comes to Charlotte (or anywhere close) I am going to a book signing! I really do not know which one of his books is my fave because they are soooooo good! If you have not read any of them you need too! I would suggest reading any of them but be prepared to cry! 

6. I love flip flops! My favorite kind are the 2 for $5 from Old Navy beacause they have every color and I love matching them with my outfits.

7. The beach is my favorite vacation place. I have gone to Myrtle Beach every year since I was I think 1. There is so much to do there and it so relaxing.  One day I would love to own a house at the beach!

8. I do still live at home even though I am 21 years old but I am still in college. My parents are the greatest because they are supportive and have taught me a lot.  I have a brother that is almost ten years younger than me which is a good thing because if he would have been born closer to me there would not have been the technology that he needed for his open heart surgeries.He may annoy me sometimes but I love him :)


9. I am a Baptist. I was baptised when I was 6 years old. I got saved at South Mountain Baptist Camp. Like I said in my earlier post I do not get to make it to church every Sunday because I work but the values that I have learned being a Baptist have made me who I am today and I would not change a thing. 

10. I have been dating the most AMAZING guy for over three years! Most people think that we met at work but we actually met through friends. Yes we do work at the same place but that happened by chance when I got transferred to the store he worked at when the store I worked at closed. He is always there for me when I need it and he is the sweetest, most polite, hilarious, handsome, and creative guy. <3


So if you want to know anything else about me just leave a comment and I will either answer it as a comment or make it another blog topic! Or if you want to know my thoughts on any other topic leave it as a comment and I will answer!!!

Relationships :)

So i have been thinking about doing a blog for a while but could never figure out what i wanted to the topic to be about but lately I've realized there is a lot of times ill think of something I want to post on facebook but decide not to because i may offend someone. So this is going to be the place that I just lay it all out! The first topic that I have been thinking about lately is relationships. Not just dating relationships but also relationships with family, friends, and even religious. Ill start off with family and friend relationships. Being a full time student and working part time makes it really hard to make time to go out and do things on the spur of the moment so I'm sorry to those that I have not gotten to spend much time with over the past couple of years. Once I graduate in May I plan on being able to spend more time with my family and friends. I have realized lately the reason I am friends with the same people I have been with since high school. This reason is because they have been with me and understand my beliefs and respect them. I have made some new friends since high school that I know I can count on anytime I need them but I have also met people that can turn on you. So thank you to those that have been there for me :) Another relationship that I want to talk about is religious relationships. I know that I Do not go to church every Sunday but I do make it a priority to try and live my life in a Christian way. I have been told that I try to make myself look better than others and that im not the perfect person because I have done certain things. I have never told anyone that i think im perfect because I know I have sinned but you must also look at yourself before pointing fingers. I have also realized that I am greatful for the way my parents raised me by taking me to church every Sunday when I was growing up because it taught me the morals that I still hold true today. The last relationships I want to voice my opinion on is dating. I was lucky to meet my boyfriend over 3 years ago. I am so thankful that he agrees with my morals and that we see eye to eye on mostly everything. He is always there for me and supports my decisions. So thank you Chelsea for draging me to Hickory and thank you Justin for bringing John! I know some people do not have this kind of relationship...well actually they have the complete opposite. I believe that if you are in a relationship that seems one sided then in reality its not a relationship. Also I do not see how someone can be in an abusive relationship. If your bf/gf is being abusive do you really think he/she cares for you and your well being??? Also if he/she makes you change what you believe or who you hang/spend time with then there is something wrong because you need to be yourself not what someone whats you to be. They should love you for you. I'm not saying that if you are dating someone who is a drug addict or an alcholic that there is anything wrong with helping them stop, im talking about those people who make their bf/gf change everything about themselves. Another thing, if you keep having relationships that contunie going the same way you may want to take a break and look at yourself and see if there is a trend that you are causing. So in the end I believe that you should have a healthy relationship were each person is themselves and you should be supportive of each other. Also you need to have friends and family that support you and that are there for you. To have these things I believe you need to find YOURSELF because there is only one of you! "Compromising doesn't mean that your wrong and someone is right, it only means that you value your RELATIONSHIP much more than your ego"
