Incidents in the life of.....

All me

I hadn't sat down with thoughts of self in quite sometime. So here goes........
I am ready to go to school. I still don't have all the money and registration is less than a month away. I'm not particulary worried though. I think God put me in this situation for a reason and I am going to make the best of it. I am supposed to be calling one of my line sisters to possibly buy some of her books. She started the program about a year ago and is now in law school. Hence, she probably doesn't need the books anymore.
My hair is super nappy. I am going to treat my hair tomorrow. I am going to start by taking down these braids, followed by a shampoo. Then I am going to give myself a hot oil treatment, and condition my hair overnight. I am getting a straw set Thursday. I don't know how that will turn out with my hair being in the condition it is in. I am going to get those African twists the Thursday after Christmas. If they look right, then I am definitely getting locks. If they don't, I might get a perm.
I am still working hard. I am going to do the in-school tutoring program when school starts back so that I can take those two classes that I want. I think my body has gown used to staying up late because I can stay up until midnight without a problem. I'm getting old because in undergrad I could stay up until the sun rose.
My love life sucks horribly. I am not making any progress. I would say I am traveling backwards, but I'm not. There are just a few people here occupying time and space. I get bored so I call them. Nothing serious. There are quite a few people who call me regularly and a few I spend time with, but none of them excite me. None of them intrigue me. None of them make me want to be with them. They are actually quite boring.
I finished my Christmas shopping and this is the first time I am going to give my mom what she wants:money. I hate giving money on Christmas. It just doesn't require any thought, but it's what she wants so what the hell?! I bought all of my neices and nephews clothes. Next year I am buying toys because I am inclined to believe toys are cheaper. I bought my dad a George Foremen 10th anniversary grill and my father some cufflinks with his initials on it. I bought my father's wife a nine west bag, my fav tee-tee some Glo by JLo. I'm going to wait on my siblings to buy for the grandparents and them donate and sign my name on the card. Is that trifling? We always do that. But usually, I buy the gift and they contribute and sign the cards after the fact. I'm not buying my siblings anything because I had to buy for their kids. Last year when they had one each, I bought them something, but not this time. I am going to give my baby brother some money. I wanted to buy Blair some Bvulgary Black, but I couldn't find it. I only saw the blue. Oh well. I'll figure it out after Christmas.
Well, that's it! I'm excited to be home and wish everyone a Merry Christmas.
