Draft Post - Airblog!!!

Dear readers,

The reason this is not in Italics is cause I want you to know that when I opened this draft post .... there was nothing in here. But I do remember the day I planned on doing an airblog. I was in a plan (going somewhere) and I had my laptop, so of course I was about to type out a blog in the AIR!!!

Thus making it an AIRBLOG!!! I dont know what happened to the actual contents but ... this is now it.

SO stay tuned for the next 24 posts over the next 12 days.

OXXO

Mayeshah!!!

Draft Posts!!!

Dear Readers, (cause I noticed that is how my older post starts)

I decided to come on my computer at 12:41 am to email something to myself and activate a website I signed up for (will do a post on that if it is successful). I then checked out the tabs that were open (because I never shut down my computer, I just put it to hibernate). I noticed a few of you have read my blog entries (thank you for actually giving a shit) and was looking at my statistics. I then noticed that I have .... 25 drafts. How in hell's name did I get 25 blog entries sent to DRAFT. 

So For the next few days you are going to get 2 completed copies of my draft posts every day. 

Some of them were from when I was still in Uni. (i think). So I shall finish them up and post them up so you can see my mental regurgitation of ... my interests, my thoughts, and me. 

So now I am going to post one (so that it will be an even 2 everyday) and this will be the first of my 2 blogs daily. 

So you will see a post early in the morning (probably 8am and then another in the evening around 6:30pm. So if you are at all interested you will know how many I have everyday. 

Now to bed I go. (P.S. I love typing in Times New Roman with Italics so get used to it)

Mayeshah!!!

Plans

So, I had injured my back a few months back and my doctors informed me that I need to start taking care of myself. Eating better, drinking more water and exercising (everything that I am doing wrong). They also informed me that I cant just do any form of exercise. I need to start swimming. However I. Cant. Swim.
I live on a freaking island and cant swim. What if a tsunami hits (not like ppl who can swim will survive) but if I am in a position where I can swim to safety and cant swim wtf am I to do? DIE???

So I was talking with the Bar Supervisor at work and he was telling me of this swimming class over by my first work place. So the first thing that came to mind was .... who can I get to drag with me (since I am needy and need company for everything) then the second thing that came to mind was .... how the hell am I gonna get my black ass over there.

So as soon as I work out at least one of those questions I will get started on my quest to becoming a better me. I am even on this new diet kick (diet means my entire food choices change not just in order to loose weight) So we have cut out Carbs out of our diet. NO bread, rice, pasta, flour products. NONE!!! So we will see how that does.

I am also planning on doing my speech 2 for Toastmasters on Thursday. So this will be interesting. I am kinda planning it like a conversation with just the topic headings on a note card. Wish me luck on that .

I also have a plan for a business venture. But that will be under wraps until it gets underway. So yea.

I have a bunch of weddings and parties to attend, which is awesome. Both weddings are for ladies I went to school with. One is next month while the other is January (which I am taking part in as a bridesmaid) AMEN TO NO BRIDEZILLA's. Another one of my friends has caught "The Baby". So we are planning a get-together for her being all awesome for having a bundle of joy. Then there are two bachelorette parties which will be crazy awesome.

Then my final plan is to be more assertive in my life, work place and (so called, none existent) love life. So I am reading a book which is kinda like an Assertive Training Course. So we will see how that works out. HMMM.

Friend cycle

So occasionally I would think of all kinda random ish. And sometimes my ish is quite sensible. Every time I look at Facebook and YouTube and instagram, what do I see? Ppl hanging out with their friends. I never noticed how much ppl went out with friends until I took a good long look.

Yea Family is important but you need to get away from them at times and just be ... you. That is why each person is different. Each person has a group of friends that make them who they are. Right now my list of friends have dwindled down to .... a small few. My original set of friends have turned into Acquaintances. People I used to beg and plead to hang out with when I was younger. Now that I am (grown) I don't have those urges anymore and I think that is why I am becoming quite distant from people in general. If it wasn't for my Job I would have become a hermit.

I now have the issue where I would be invited out by someone and make up a random excuse for not going. So I need to get over this. :( Or else. I would become a recluse (if that is how you spell it, not in the mood for spell check been up since 2:30am)

It is also said that as you get older you will have your original group of friends from high school and then you would have your friends from present day. Some of the original might move on with their lives and become BFFs to someone else and slip off your radar. This has slapped me hard in the face a few times because I kinda thought that we gonna be best friends for decades (which never happen). I think a friendship span is like 7 years and then after that you either have to find something else that your friendship is based on or find new friends.

I guess right now my closest friends are people at work (Verandah Resort and Spa) and persons who are part of the Antigua Toastmasters Club (check out that plug).Then since the Expressions Poetry in the Pub starts back up, as well as the Best of Books Poetry club, I will meet up with them again. These persons although you may see them on the fly and say a polite hi, when you meet them at these gatherings y'all are long lost besties who share as much as possible in between Poems.

So I am in dire need to get out of my comfort zone and go places. But of course my need to be with ppl overrides this need. I need a ride at least I can pick up ppl at the side of the road!!! Right now the only person that I go out with is my sister and if not I feel quite awkward (which in actual truth I dont go at all) I love chilling with my sister but she is a comfort zone that I need to stray a lil from.

Well I gonna drop my sis home and hopefully get home in time to get some good good sleep.

Finally New PC

Hey all, I have finally gotten me a new Laptop. It is an Aceer Aspire E1- 431-2863

I know that is a lot of information. but I dont care. So now I have no reason for not posting more regularly. I am still getting used to it and my internet is being a major douchebag. This pc is internet based and my internet is like "hahahah bitch you cant get online". So I am still trying not to take it back and say screw it.

So right now I have alot of things due. Minutes for my Secretarial position of the Antigua ToastMasters Club. Also I have alot of youtube to be catching up on. So that will take me a while. Plus updating my facebook, pinterest. tumblr, and linkdin.

So when I come across anything quite interesting that I wanna talk about I will most definitely be all up in here.

OXXO

Mayeshah!!

Self!

I have been soo out of it lately. I have no computer to be doing my blogging/surfing/secretarial duties/ speeches. Work is ..... yea that would have to be another entry. The only things that keep me in this world is Family, friends and a mentor who even though I feel guilty for using him as a Psychologist, he is always there to listen to me.

I have been reading a friends blog and have noticed that this mental state I have been living in is not a state that I live in on my own. I have been reading her blogs and shall share entries with you in the future (hopefully I get a pc to blog more often).

I also came across a youtube video which had hit home with me. I even left a comment on the video. Something I rarely ever do.

Well I will go into this topic more when I get the chance but I am on someone else's time right now. This was just a taste of what is to come soon.
So TTFN

Update (Hopefully the final one in a while)

I feel so guilty but life has been up down and around town since last time I posted here on my faithful little blog.

I have been quite busy with work and when not busy trying to become more social ( main word trying: NCIS is still my weakness ) I am presently working at Verandah Resort and Spa. It is such a great property. The staff are easy to work with and the guest are so lovely and easy to talk to. More information would be given after I either get a good day to post up or I get a new pc!!

The Mind

The mind is a very powerful vessel in the body. It can allow you to do anything you wants to do and then it can stop you from doing anything you want to do. Unfortunately I have the latter of the two. I get very emotional when in certain situations and may be seen as stupid for reacting to it.

I have meant to do a post recently however all kind of excuses that my mind can muster up happened. A few events have occurred which has encouraged this post to be born. My telling people something and they either shoot it down or suggest I do something which is crippling for me. After this I get a great emotional flood and have to fight off tears. I know that the persons are right for what they say but I just cant bring myself to follow through. I then hammer myself with more self hatred than I normally do.I curse myself for not bringing myself to follow the person(s) advice, I curse myself for not having anything to say because I don't understand what is really doing on in my mind, I curse myself for wanted to cry but not doing it because I will appear stupid and weak.

I know that I put myself in position but I don't try to do it. It is just something that happens. I am encouraged to start something that I enjoy and  fear interrupts first, then self doubt, then excuses, then I start to beat myself up because I am being so negative and that is where the tears come.

I disclosed some information to someone and their response had made me so uncomfortable that I began to cry (it was dark so the person was not aware of this). This pain just arises in my chest and then all these negative thought occur and it causes more physical pain than necessary. Persons say once you master the powers of your mind you can do miracles, but when you are always put down and in fear of that negativity it is hard.

I always say that I don't care what others think but it is a devil induced LIE! I am soo concerned on other persons thoughts I chose my career around it. Persons have even told me this Career is hard, and I said I can handle the hard work. What they didn't tell me was that the hard part was the fact that you had to be confident about what you do and know; and don't care what others think.

It is also said that the hardest critique is yourself. And it hurts even worst now because I am always criticizing myself and not doing anything about it because I feel like I am about to have a panic attack  when taking action.  Like my eyes jump, my chest hurt, tears come to my eyes and I just feel like dying.

However, I don't tell anyone this because I fear that I will be seen as just being mellow dramatic. That feeling is the worst, not being able to tell anyone. People just don't understand. They try and give you pointers and tips, not knowing that the issue is much worst and deeper.That whatever is going on is just a symptom of the real issue.

I have thought of meditation but the few times I have tried it even more negative thoughts come to mind. And they are the cause of all of my issues and fears. I have been put down in relations to all sort of situations that now I am too afraid to suggest anything. I would then put my health (mental and physical) at risk and when I tell anyone I am scolded and given advice on how to cure a symptom instead of the problem.

Well it seems like this is life and I either have to sit down and ride it out or try and change it. It is just am I strong enough to?

I know this would either be read and just seen as a silly rant or not read at all. But is what is going on in MY MIND. I have finished crying now and am left with a headache. I shall leave now to go and sleep and hope that I don't show signs of this tomorrow.

I was going to say more but the pain going on in my psyche is so outrageous that I shall save it for later.

De-cluttering - Cards

I do not through away things easily. One thing I would never ever throw away (until today) are birthday and Christmas cards.So I justified throwing them out if I have pics of them. Here they are, there may be more but when I find those I will do a part 2.

 This is the first of may Tare has given me :)

 See?

 My Mommy

 I think she is trying to imply something!!!

 A lady who used to work with us got me this

 My God Mother got me this, which I knew where she was!!

 Now she thinks i gonna hurt myself

 My Aunty Jim

 God mother

 I have no idea who gave me this one.

 Fam friends got me this one

These sure made my heart feel all warm and fuzzy!!!

De-Cluttering - The Beginning

I have done my first decluttering session today and came across a whole ton of cool stuff. B-day, and Christmas cards, recipes, souvenirs, receipts, an alarm clock, a desk lamp, cords, and a whole ton of stuff.

I had not wanted to through away anything but I told myself that if I dont ... who knows what will happen in a few years. So I opened up the suitcase (cause that is where I store all my junk) and took out 3 bags. I went through the first bag and came across aprons and chef caps and the neck tie thingy we had to wear in the kitchen at JWU.

So, I decided all that was old and nasty and dirty and deserves to be dumped. I then decided that since it wont be as easy as that was with the other stuff I would take pictures and share them with you! So you can see what a hoarder I am!!! I also have some really cool stuff too.

So this is the beginning and I will keep you on my journey to the minimalistic life!!

OXXO

Mayeshah!!!

Broken

I had spoken to my sister and we have figured out that one of the developmental skills you learn while grown up was absent from our lives. And now it makes me feel Broken. While this song has nothing to do with my situation. It does hit a chord with me. I have always wondered why I am soo afraid of men. However having a discussion with my sister I noticed that my interaction by guys was limited during my teen years. So one of my close (and few) guy friends tried an experiment with me to just hang out with him and he could see that I was highly uncomfortable alone with him. However as we would start talking it would be cool and I would relax. But some guys I never relax around. He had gone off to University. Now that he is gone and I see I am getting closer to the age of 25, I notice that his experiment would work however he is different from most guys. He is cool and easy to talk to (even though he would insult me once in a while). I will have to take my fear by the horns and plummet it to the ground. OXXO Mayeshah!!!

Minimalism

I have been in a very uncomfortable living condition lately. So I was talking to my brother about how bad it has gotten and he tole me it was best to move on. Then I started thinking how am I going to just up and leave everything I own and cherish. My brother must have read my mind because he sent me a few links on becoming a Minimalist. I have no idea whether I would have the will power to do this (since I am a semi-hoarder). I then read through the links and figured it seems possible. One of the links had identified an e-book which outlined 7 steps to becoming a Minimalist. So I bought it since it was just US$0.99 (couldn't pass up that deal) So I begin my journey to minimalism real soon. I had looked around my room and bathroom and wonder why I have all this junk. So much memorabilia from different places and different aspects of my life - Primary School, Secondary School, State College, JWU, LMU and other random instance I have acquired junk. I thought a bit more and figured if I took a picture of the item and maybe blogged about the item then I wouldn't need to have the physical item and would reduce the amount of clutter. Thus entering a new and improved minimalist lifestyle. So my plan is to take my time and go through my junk and deal with them accordingly. Clothes that can't fit or are our of style can be given away; shoes as well. Books that have been read could either be given to the library or sold to the bookstore. My collection of mini liquors can be drunk :), well after I blog about then and why I started collecting them. I have papers from uni and so on, those can be tossed (with my eyes closed). There are alot of items I do hoard but with time I will psychologically dis-attach myself from them. I will slowly but surely keep you posted with my journey.:) OXXO Mayeshah!!!

Old Movies : The Worst Witch

I can't believe they finally shared this movie on youtube!!! I have been searching for this movie for .... approximately 6 years!! and just a week ago a wonderful lady shared it!! It brought so much memories. I noticed that a lot of my character was built on movies like this (The Worst Witch) and the movie "The Witches". They were British films about witches and I loved them both!!!

Mildred is one of the young girls at a prestigious witch academy. She can't seem to do anything right and is picked on by classmates and teachers. The headmistress of the school, Miss Cackle, has an evil twin sister (Agatha) who plans to destroy the school. Can Mildred foil the plan before the Grand Wizard (Tim Curry) comes to the Academy for the Halloween celebration you'll never forget?!! Written by Evan Shenkman

I shall share this and try and get my own copy in case youtube is against this!! Check it out: LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS MOVIE!! Bearing in mind I love TIM CURRY and I have a wicked girly crush on Fairuza Balk!!!! OXXO Mayeshah!!

Old Movies: She-Devil

I must say this movie has gotten my high ratings because of how low a woman would go to teach her husband a lesson. He had it coming but for the amount of time that this took to be carried out and the amount of people who was incorporated into executing this, all I have to ask is it worth it? But then again at the end of the movie she got her just results and became a better person because of it! So I do believe it was worth it! This movie was not that old but the mere fact that Meryl Streep and Roseanne Barr were still lookin all cute and fresh, dont even get me started on the technology! So then again it might be that old!!! LOL!! I loved the methodological precision she had taken to breaking every aspect of his life. It also makes you think about what information you can give a person to allow them access into another persons life. It also draws the question could she have been a sociopath who could have easily brought someones life crumbling around them? But no... she was a woman scorned and then left with nothing but herself and her kids. However if a sociopath had the ability to do this he/she could, and it is scary how easy. Ok I am straying from everything. No more delays. Check out this movie: She-Devil OXXO Mayeshah!!!

Marry Me - Lucy Liu

All right, I am totally fucked up right now. This is the cutest movie I have seen in FOREVER!!!! I first saw my sister watching it... ok, I heard her LAUGHING OUT LOUD to this movie. So at one point I decided to go and see what she was watching!!! I saw a little bit which was awkward and I was hesitant to watch this!!! Then today I asked her how was the movie and she admitted it was a great movie that it went straight to tv but it was soooo cute!! SO I just watched it and OMG I WANT TO GET MARRIED NOW!!! SERIOUSLY! Why do people in the Caribbean have these situations!! Well I guess this movie is the adult version of my Mary-Kate and Ashley obsessions as a kid!!! I need to share this movie to who ever is still checking out this blog!!! Gosh I might even have to spread it far and wide on fb, tumblr, pinterest, instagram, twitter, Stumbleupon, linkedin, and obviously here on Blogger!!! OK LET ME STOP DELAYING!!! CHECK THIS OUT!!!TWO PARTS!! Approx 1.5 hrs each but well worth every minute!!! PART 1 PART 2 OXXO Mayeshah!!!

BAR CODE??

Ok I was looking through the magazine that you have been seeing pics over the past few days. I noticed that there was a bar code that has been created and it is not even friggin' bar!!!! Check these out. These are for makeup:

OMEGA Ladymatic

I had been seeing sooo much commercials about this damn watch that when I saw it in the magazine I just had to share. The dress she has on is very nice though.

Fucking Advert!! Now I cant get this watch out of my mind. I kinda wanna put it on my wishlist even though I dont need it!!!

OXXO

Mayeshah!!!

Shoes! OMG Shoes!!

Now I am a sucker for shoes, however I dont have much because of the size of my foot (out of the average range). I love me some heels but I never really learnt how to walk in Stillettos. I, therefore, love me high heels with thick heels or wedges. But then when it comes to flat shoes I like sandals like the third pic at the top.
I have also read that every girl should own a pair of sling back heels. That is the reason you see the 3 pics of sling backs. And boots can carry off the right outfit, whether it is shorts with a nice suede boots or a nice leather boots with a boot cut jeans, or even a nice pair of high heeled boots to go to work.

OXXO,

Mayeshah!!!

Brooklyn is in Love

I had came across this last night and was in awe by this damn show!!! I watched all the episodes and all the seasons they have available. I just hope they bring out more episodes. They haven't posted anything in a month or so and I am freaking out!!!! Check out the first season here!!! OXXO Mayeshah!!!!

Slam Poetry

I love this poem soo much!!!! Enjoy! OXXO Mayeshah!!!

Q Dream

I was looking through a magazine and saw this drink. It looks like a cream liqueur and I am a sucker for cream liqueur. Stuff like Baileys, Sangsters Rum Cream and there is a Strawberry Delight Liqueur that I love. So I am putting this in wish list.

OXXO,

Mayeshah!!!

Regina Spektor

I am having a hipster moment. I want to say "OmG, I have been listening to Regina Spektor before she became main stream!!!" However in truth she was already mainstream when I ever heard of her. She came out in 2006 with the album "Begin to Hope".

I fell in love with her sound and her words and her in general. I even bought her album, (that means that I actually like the music).

Now I saw on CNN they had an interview with her and I see she has a new album "What We Saw from the Cheap Seats". So now I am going to go out of my way and get this album and in the near future I will do a update on how good this album is, or bad (if that is possible). AND GUESS WHAT? She is Russian and left Russia when she was, like, young.

Absence

I do feel really rotten for not have blogged anything in a long time. But I have been going through a mental, physical and technological crisis.

I have been having work stresses which have led me on a hunt for a new job. As well as other mental things.

Even though I am to blame for most if not all my physical issues , work didnt help much at all. I know I am the lazy type and if I am to do something I might need company. So there goes the gym along with doing cardio walking. But when I first started working I was walking alot more and I was losing weight rapidly. But with all the movement at work I ended up gaining back the weight and more. :(   So at present I am feeling all forms of pain which is a direct cause of obesity.

And now my technological issues are caused by my retarded ass computer which doesnt allow me to go on blogger.

So right now I just living life trying to stay sane and do what I have to do. I came across the quote today (it is somewhere on this post, I dont know where since I am doing this on my phone) and even though I am not religious I found it had a big and positive impact on how I feel now. I feel that I have taking a great decision and I am open to what is coming next.

So I will try hard not to be a stranger.

XOXO

COVERS! (music)

I was listening to Jango.com and I came across John Mayers song Gravity. I stared to sing along but the voice wasn't what I was used to. So it clicked in my mind that I love love love this song when it is sung by Steph Jones: After a mini mental orgasm I decided to listen to another song that I liked but was originally done by someone else. I am not sure if it was a situation where Steph's voice isn't as smooth as the original but damn, my boo wasn't hitting that mental g-spot. So I went and looked up my babe Robin Thicke. Damn, he sounds soo sexy. Can I say another eargasm. DAMN: Then I saw ppl bashing on Trey Songs and how bad he sounded doing Robin's cover. However I didn't find it that bad, but like Steph, it wasnt as smooth and sexy. The moral of this display is sometime the cover can be even more sexy or even better in all aspects than the original.

SPECIAL TREATS!!!

My sis and I were having a conversation at the beach yesterday and I was really curious on how (and if ) I could actually accomplish this. I have been curious on the effects of marijuana but I dont want to be a pot head or anything. So I would most likely use it when making brownies or cookies! So from the videos I have seen it is all about cooking down the pot into the butter to create Cannibutter. Check out these vids and maybe when I make something I will share with you! Now I will be documenting how I feel and maybe video tape myself. I will be seeing if the effects are the same as this! Effects: DISCLAIMER: WEED IS ILLEGAL BUT AS THEY SAY YOLO!!! OXXO, Myeshah!!!

Valhalla Rising

Alright, I have a weakness for movies that kinda make you think. This sure is one. It makes you look at the Character himself. The relationship between him and the boy. The journey they encountered and the people they come across. It is very artistically done and I must say I enjoyed it. The visuals were the most captivating part of this movie.

The person who had put this up on youtube had said this (in french and I translated it)

The Silent Warrior (Valhalla Rising) is the film's mystery: the mystery of a geographic area unknown mystery of an omnipresent character on the screen which we will never know the voice, a mystery and strong invisible bond between the child and the warrior. Everything is simple and complex at the same time. Nicolas Winding Refn takes us to a deeper trance divine: repetition of still shots revealing landscapes of mountains and clear waters, mists terrifying when the future has neither shape nor texture, where visions One Eye, bleeding, a look-over and sometimes himself. The images, beautiful, punctuate a journey to hell, where nature, such as film, evolves through the figure of the circle.

Hope you enjoy!

Brining Poultry

Did you know you could BRINE poultry??? Yea you can. Read below:

The secret to juicy chicken and turkey is simple - brine them before cooking!

This is the secret that chefs never tell you about. It's very easy and economical, and requires no special cookware.

Brining is like a marinade, as it keeps food moist and tender. Brining or salting is a way of increasing the moisture holding capacity of meat resulting in a moister product when it is cooked. Salt changes the structure of the muscle tissue in the meat which allows it to swell and absorb water and flavorings which results in a tender turkey or chicken once cooked. Give it a try!

Who would have thunk it!!

You can use this Simple Chicken Brine recipe to make the best of your poultry:

Ingredients

• 1 gallon warm water
• 3/4 cup kosher salt
• 2/3 cup sugar
• 3/4 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup olive oil

Directions

1. Pour the warm water into a container that is twice the volume of the water. Pour in the salt, sugar, soy sauce, and olive oil. Stir until the sugar and salt have dissolved, then allow the brine to cool to room temperature.
2. To use, place chicken in the brine, cover, and refrigerate two hours for skinless breasts, 4 hours for bone-in pieces, and 4 hours to overnight for whole chickens. Drain and pat the chicken dry before cooking. One gallon of brine is enough for 6 pounds of whole chicken or bone-in chicken pieces, and up to 10 pounds of skinless, boneless chicken breasts.

  I have found out about Brining Poultry from food Network's list of Cooking secrets. This is basically a list of some of the most famous chefs on Food Network giving their cooking secrets and tips 

I have also come across this website here which has all the information you would need to know about brining Poultry. I cant wait to try this out!

Old Movies: The Lady Vanishes (1938)

I just finished watching this movie and it was the most mind boggling and cutest movie I have seen in a long time. The character development was very well done, The plot was really good. The scenes and costumes were undeniably well done for their time!! I recommend anyone to watch this movie. ESPECIALLY if you love black and white films.

Storyline: Travellers on a trans-European train are delayed for a night due to bad weather in a small fictional country called Mandrika. The passengers cram into the small village hotel where socialite Iris Henderson meets an old governess called Miss Froy. Shortly after the journey restarts, Miss Froy disappears.

Possession of Hit & Run Words

I saw this movie and was like.... this is going to be a bad ass movie. I wont say it gonna be a blockbuster, nor am I saying that it would even reach Antigua but if I ever see it showing anywhere I will sit and watch it just for the laughs. Now this one is like freaking gut wrenching, I-need-to-cry, drama, chick flick that I need in my life. Ok I hate hate hate hate hate hate hate HORROR movies but sometimes in my life I will risk my mental state for something that looks quite badass like this. ...........OK I just watched the trailer again and there were some scenes that I didnt really notice like the xray, I paused it to take a good look at the xray and Now I not sure if I can handle this. If it is like Constantine I will watch it, if it is like EMILY ROSE this can go down as a movie that will never be seen. OXXO Mayeshah!!!
