Decisions

So I need a new phone....our contract with T-mobile has ended months ago and we have been paying just month to month now....I have a older small little blue slider and it's old.  I would like a more grown up phone, but it seems that I am getting super picky about it.

  1. I have had the same number since high school, so its been 6 years??  I love have the same number for that long.  I have some phone numbers since high school and all so its nice to keep it.  Its not likely that I'll call up old friends like that, but I love saying that I have been having the same number since high school.  So basically, I do not want to change networks.
  2. I don't really need a smart phone, basically, I don't want to pay for a data plan because they are pricey and I might never really use it to its potential, hence not wanting to pay for extra features that I will never use. 
  3. I kinda don't want to extend another 2 years with T-mobile.  It's not like this is a bad idea, but it's just beinf stuck with them for another 2 years is like a committment to something that I kinda don't want.
With these three things, its so hard to get a phone that I like.  Actually, I did find a phone that I like very much at World of Wireless, but it was too good to be true.  Everything about the phone was great, it was cheap (good), it was not a data plan phone (better) and I didn't have to sign another 2 years away (better).  But sadly after a week of using it, the hearing thing does not work well. Whenever I place a call, I can barely hear the other party, and usually I ended up putting them on speaker phone.  Everything about the phone is great, except that part:(  It was too good to be true,  oh, well, I am returning it tomorrow and now...I am thinking that maybe two years extension is not that bad of an idea and that the data plan is a new change that I'll have to get used too. 

With the Family plan, we are already paying between 140 to 180 depending on the month, so it's a lot, I will have to speak with the person that pays the bill and see if I can make the jump to smartphone.  Lol...I think it's funny that I try so hard to get something that I want but might end up getting something with the above mention things.  Lol.....This is funny.  I hope I find something.  I do look in craigslist, but haven't really done anything with that quote yet....We'll see. 

Defintely keep you all in the loop and post pictures when I finally get a phone.

I am also looking for an apartment too!  That has been going all right, I have only looked at 2 so far.  The first one was all right, it was over in the Battle Creek area, right next to Woodbury, but it was a little small for my liking.  The living area was small and the bedrooms were also small.  The price was great though. 

The second apartment, I kinda like:)  It is right across from where I used to live.  I saw a unit on the third floor which was okay.  I prefer the buttom, then top, then the middle.  The living room was good, the bedrooms were also very good size, it is a little bit more, but within the budget I set for myself.  And another plus is that the is free wifi so I love that.  I hope that the network is not slow though, that's what I would be scared of.  The unit that would be avaliable for me would be on the second floor though...so I am not a huge fan, but not saying now.  I am saying no to the first place for sure.  There is one over my SunRay that I would like to see.  I hope the property manager calls me back soon!

Pretzels

Has anyone looked at a pretzel lately?  Doesn't it look familiar, two things merged into one?  Here take a look at this one.  What does it look like?
I was looking at the pretzels I brought to work the other day and eating some today, and it kinda reminded me of the peace sign and a heart.  Kinda like peace and love....I think that's so cool!  It doesn't have the straight down line like a real peace sign, but kinda, right?  And it's in a soft heart shape:)  I thought it was funny, it just came to me:)  and it made me smile.....

random note, I have been seeing a lot of smiley faces in natural places, that I might take and show it here.  I think its funny when I see them in places that you wouldn't expect ie like the bathroom.  I will explain later.  Lol. 

Pretzel (in place of peace and love),

75 Lessons that MUST be learned in Relationships

This was posted by a friend on facebook.  I read it and completely love it.  I agree with a lot of these statements.  I am going to post the page that I really like and also include the link to the page. 
1. If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away.
If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay.
2. Stop making excuses for a man and his
behavior.
3. If you have ANY doubt in your mind about a
man's character, leave him alone.
4. Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from
heartache.
5. Stop trying to change yourself for a relationship
that's not meant to be.
6. Don't force an attraction.
7. Slower is better.
8. Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly
happy.
9. If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you
deserve then heck no you can't "be friends." A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend.
10. Have faith in God regarding your relationship, but don't let faith make you stupid. God does things decent and in order. 
11. Don't settle. 
12. If you feel like he is stringing you along, then he probably is.
13. If he keeps changing his mind about the relationship--take that as a BIG sign that he is unstable. Do you really want to be with a man like that?
14. Don't stay because you think "it will get better." You'll be mad at
yourself a year later for staying when things are not better. 
15. Honorable men take care of their business
and aren't involved in a whole lot of mess.
16. The only person you can control in a relationship is you.
17. There's only one 'reason' a man dumps you; he doesn't want you.
18. Avoid men who've got a bunch of children by a bunch of different
women. He didn't marry them when he got them pregnant, why would he treat you any differently?
19. You really do have to kiss a few frogs before finding the prince.
20. Always put yourself and your happiness first.
21. Always have your own set of friends separate from his.
22. Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you. If something bothers you, speak up.
23. Like from the show Sex and the City, if he doesn't call, he just isn't
that interested.
24. Be honest and upfront.
25. Know when to cut the cord, don't be strung along.
26. Don't fall for the "I'm confused role". Remove yourself from the
situation to let him figure things out (but don't wait for him, move on).
27. If you want to have a clue as to how he will treat you, watch how he treats the WOMEN in his family (not just mom).
28. There's more than physical abuse, there's emotional and mental abuse. If he causes any of them...flee.
29. You cannot change a man's behaviors. Change comes from within.
30. Don't let him place rules on you that he is not willing to follow
himself -- double-standard.
31. Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are...even if he has more education or in a better job.
32. Do not make him into a quasi-god. He is a man, nothing more nothing less.
33. Demand respect and if he can't give it, he can't have you!
34. Don't compete with other woman, but be aware that men are attracted to what they see.
35. If you think he is cheating, he probably is. Confront him right away
and if you feel he's lying, let him go.
36. Actions speak louder than words.
37. Never let a man define who you are.
38. Never rely on a man for compliments, look to yourself for that.
39. Never borrow someone else's man.
40. If he cheated with you, he'll cheat on you.
41. Just because he says he loves you, doesn't mean that he won't hurt you and it doesn't mean that you are meant to be with him.
42. To use painful hard-won wisdom -- 'get it right' the next time.
43. Know that you deserve to be the number one person in the life of the No.1 person in your life.
44. Love is a verb ...
45. Learn to give up your lifelong task of trying to make someone
unavailable-available, someone ungiving-giving, and someone unloving-loving.
46. A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat you.
47. All men are NOT dogs.
48. You should not be the one doing all the bending...compromise is a two way street.
49. If you don't love self...you can't love anyone else.
50. You cannot mend someone else's broken heart.
51. You need time to heal between relationships...there is nothing cute
about baggage...deal with your issues before pursuing a new relationship.
52. You should never look for someone to COMPLETE you...a relationship consists of two WHOLE individuals...look for someone complementary...not supplementary.
53. Dating is fun...even if he doesn't turn out to be Mr. Right.
54. NEVER give more in a relationship than you are getting out of it.
55. Never become your man's "therapist".
56. When actions and words conflict, believe the actions. Respond to the actions.
57. A real healthy relationship requires two people. One person can end
it - but it takes two to make it work.
58. Don't fall for the "I'm not the loving type"...when a man loves you
there is nothing in this world (within reason) that he wouldn't do for you.
59. Make him miss you sometimes...when a man always know where you are, and you're always readily available to him he takes it for granted.
60. Give him his space...let him go out with his boys, don't pressure him to spend time with you, You cant force a man to hang out with you.
61. If you wouldn't allow your daughter to be with him you shouldn't.
62. Never let a man know everything. He will use it against you later.
63. Never move into his mother's house.
64. Provide financially for yourself and don't depend on anyone.
65. Never co-sign for a man.
66. Never believe you have the perfect guy and he is so innocent.
67. Never spoil your man; let him spoil you.
68. Never let a man mess up your credit.
69. When it's time to let go; let go.
70. Good men should be treated like good men.
71. Don't play games.
72. Don't fully commit to a man who doesn't give you everything that you need.
73. Keep him in your radar but get to know others.
74. Compatibility in terms of educational attainment, values, beliefs,
personal and career goals, and socioeconomic status, are important.
75. Never date a guy who wears color contact lens.

Hello to Blogger:)

This is my first post:)  I am looking forward to spending time here and posting up all my random things.  I don't know how often I will be posting, so I plan on using this as an electronic journal or something where all my randomness can be kept.  Maybe I can work on my writing skills also?  hehe.
