"JustTrina"

Okay, so this will be the 2nd time I've written here today. The first time, I got some error and all my hard work went to waste. So what I'm gonna do is try to give you a synopsis of what I wrote in the "lost entry." I basically wrote about the car salesman I met, how much I loved my dad and how the rain was pissing me off. I also wrote about this being the last day of the fiscal year and how Terri Schiavo's death was sad. I promised I was going to learn how to put pictures on here and I'm gonna make that my goal this weekend. It really pisses me off that I don't get to put up my original post, but things happen and I gotta deal...Thanks Blogger, geez.

Well I'm back. And I'm in Black. A black Trailblazer that is. I picked up my car this weekend and drove from NY to ATL yesterday. It was fun and I was proud of myself for doing it, but that's a trip I don't wanna take for a long, long time. Seriously. If it wasn't for the invention of cruise control and XM Satellite Radio, I'd've been lost and/or asleep. Again, seriously. I love my car, but I'm scared TO DEATH of my dad's reaction to it. He's gonna wild out on me. For two reasons. The first will be that I was in NY and didn't tell him. The second will be that I got a car and didn't tell him. So it's gonna be a pretty serious conversation, but there are things better to get forgiveness for than to ask permission. Besides, I'm a grown ass man, dog. But my dad still scares me. It's not so much as scares me as that I love him so much, I hate for him to be disappointed. That part of the whole deal sux. On to doper t...

I shouldn'ta left you...without a dope beat to step to! Hey, what's been going on? I feel like it's been FOREVER since I updated this blog!! So much has happened since then. I've lost 12 pounds and 3% body fat and that's AWESOME!! I'm on the way! I've seen a couple of movies since I last wrote: Diary of a Mad Black Woman and Robots (I wanted to see the Revenge of the Sith trailer). Both were good, they exceeded my expectations. I'm getting a car. A HOT new Chevy Trailblazer. I just have to go to NY to get it, which is gonna suck. My best friend's birthday was March 22, and I called and stalked her all day so she knew I was thinkin' 'bout her. Oh, so I came to a conclusion some time last week: I am ready for a relationship. After almost 3 years of being "single and lovin' it," I'm ready to settle down. Doesn't mean getting to the point of actually dating and liking someone is gonna be any easier. It just means I'm gon...

And then you die, which is pretty much where I've been the past 4 months...Dying. Aside from being sick beyond imagination, other aspects of my life are starting to get affected. I haven't been to the gym in a week, which makes me upset. School's starting to suck (issues with my senior paper, more on that when I'm in a better mood) and I'm just overall not a happy camper these days. I KNOW I'M SICK, I just wish I could get my doctor to see it too. Instead of looking at me for 5 minutes then shoving some sort of pill down my throat, he needs to DO something. C'mon, man, EARN your $15!! I mean, I'm constantly tired, constantly congested, constantly taking medicine and nothing is changing. That seems strange. People are telling me about mold, a big thing down here in the Peach State, so I guess I gotta look into that. But enough about my deteriorating health, I feel like I have better things to talk about. I saw the Usher concert Saturday and I must ...

It's been a long, long day today. First, I woke up around 8 a.m. (as you can see, my last post was around 2 a.m., I didn't get to sleep until about 3:30) and from there, my day was just jam packed. I went grocery shopping, shopped around for apartments (well, too my brother to shop around for apartments), cooked dinner and now I'm preparing for the Usher concert on Showtime (I can't shake him). I know it doesn't seem like much, but it took a lot outta me today, especially after my late night AND no nap. I haven't spoken to my cousin today, which has been pretty weird since we talk daily. Oh well, we all need our space I guess...To make up for it, though, I've been on the phone with my best friend Wendy, which is always a good time. I thought I had something interesting to write, that's what brought me to the computer, but either that's not true or I've got a mean case of writer's block! So, I enjoyed my "semi-uneventful" day a wh...

So, I went to see "Be Cool" tonight (like you couldn't tell by the title) and I really liked it. Sure, all the reviews were bad and the critics hated it, I thought it was funny. I mean, it served its purpose. It was a comedy, I laughed, mission accomplished. Now, me liking the movie is what makes me think of what a lot of my friends and family say about me, how I should be a film critic. Couldn't do it. The movies I love, critics bash, movies critics praise are almost PAINFUL for me to watch (prime example, "cold Mountain," I couldn't deal for a WHILE). But there's one thing I could do as a critic: watch some movies, boy! I love it, it's my own private escape. And I don't ask for much, just that I be entertained, which doesn't set the bar TOO high (I mean, c'mon, I've got A.D.D., here). But, "Be Cool," I liked, so go ahead, feel free to check it out. So, an update on me being sick. STILL sick, but on the roa...

Well, I was going to write about my newly rediscovered love affair with Vin Diesel (hottie), but then I got sick. Uh, no, not GOT sick, I've BEEN sick and I can't seem to shake it. After a virtually sleepless night and a deep conversation with God, I called my quac-er, doctor and he "called in" some meds. I know what you're thinking, that doesn't help, right? Well, all I can say is that I can breathe right now, but who knows what the future holds. Pray for me, people. Even this blog has taken its toll on me, so I'm headed to bed, I'll write again once I'm feelin' "up to snuff." Or at least so bored I can't STAND to stare at the TV any longer...

Well, thanks to Cortney, I now have a blog. I was checking up on my internet friends (as I do everyday), and I noticed Cort had a link in her profile. So I clicked on it and it led me to this "wonderful" website "Blogger." Being me (never afraid to try something new), I have set up this blog, which I intend to keep as up to date as possible, promise, promise. Here's entry #1, the door to a world of A.D.D., mayhem, and all out fun. Welcome to the world of "Just Trina!"
