How to get a girl

This video has made me look at the guys in the past and the guys I have gotten close to and the guys that I dont even try to get to know. Most of them comment on my looks or my shape, and in my mind I automatically close them off as prospects or even close friends. However if the guy is just outrageously fine and smooth (like James Bond) I would let them pass when tellin me how sexy I look.

But for all the dudes out there this video is soo true. Take the points in and try it out.

Be Happy

and please take care and always do what is best for you
put yourself first and be happy
life is too short
ich liebe aught

I tell people this and people tell me this but when you are in a frame of mind where you are not completely happy. But when one of my close friends from Providence  told me that it made me think about my situation and I am certain that it is not the position I would like to stay in for a long time.

I see people working in the position for years but I am not strong enough to do this for long. So sending out to everyone a comment my said:

always do what is best for you
put yourself first and be happy
life is too short

Some things to think about

I came across this and just had to share it with the outer blogesphere and the rest of the internet obsessed world.



The part that probably hit home for me was dont look back at the past because they are what are crippling your future and dont have regrets because it is a waste of time.

Is Mubarak still President?

3 weeks

Well today (5th Feb,2010) makes it 3 weeks I am working. And last night I stabbed myself with a pen.

Everyone said it is alot of work and I accepted the lots of work but when the supervisor is stressing a point that you cannot get away from and then a guest totally cusses you out I just wanted to seriously quit. But no that would get me no where.

Today started pretty good at that but then after I had a conversation with the F&B manager I got cussed out by the Supervisor. When I was in the conversation I saw a few guest arrive and sat at the bar and I was like "oh some of the guest are here" and his response was "the others can see you talking to me so they will help the guest."  So when I went inside after the conversation, the supervisor started on me telling me I still have to do my tasks before service time. I told her the the F&B manager was talkin to me and she continued "if he comes in here and the task isnt done he will be upset". Basically killing my excuse. :( So I feel like I am inbetween a true tug of war.


I dunno I dont wanna give up. The F&B manager doesnt want me to give up, the GM doesnt want me to give up (he never said it in so many words). But I know that when I get really nervous or upset I start to take it out on myself or begin to cry.

I know I am weak and that is one of the main reasons that I decided to work instead of doing my main objective first. If I gain all the experience necessary and all the SOPs (Standards of Procedures) which no one is giving me straight up, I have to pick up over time.

I dunno maybe I would rather someone treating me like I am slightly ADHD than someone getting upset with me on a regular basis.

Lyicist Brotha!!

It is so bad for me to say that Music Videos like these have made me what to have a brotha, whether black or white, like this. Damn!!! This one just crushes me!!



Then this guy just makes me wanna go to NY and party for an entire weekend!!!



OHHH and dont talk about MUSIQ!!!



I have always been attracted to guys who have a way with words. Like Montell Jordan, Musiq, KEM, Keith Sweat, Joe and other guys like that. And I have always been envious of Ladies who are more likely to get guys like that. Like India Irie, Erykah Badu, Nakia Henry,Jill Scott, and other gals like them.

There was a time I was on the subway in NY and there was a guy that was soo fine and if I wasnt underaged and wasnt leaving a few days later I most def would have went out with him.

Maybe that is why I love going to the poetry nights that are on the second and fourth Tuesday of the month. MANNN I wish I could go but I gotta work :(

Shoot if you are interested in going (if you are in Antigua or when you visit) you can check out their fb page

Well I gonna continue lookin through my blogs.

Work Nightmare

Remember all those dreams I have been having? Well I experienced a never-ending version of it today!! Mistake after mistake... no letting up. I was soo pressured I couldn't help  but to cry. I am soo happy today is my day off. Get to go to the beach ... help out at the hardware ... probably get a lil nice in the day.

I dunno it just feels like it is only getting worst but at least I know I have people like K and M (that works with me) that is willing to give me a good pep talk. Plus the encouragement from home. Proves to me that not only am I too soft for my own good but I am going to have to work mad hard to become tougher.


And to make matters worst today, my deodorant wore off. 24 hr protection my ass!!! So two of my co workers informed me of my slight HBO.

Plus when I reached half way home I had to turn back to go back to the resort to sign out.
Talk about a hell packed day!!! A true FML day!!!

I shall try the method that both my sis and K(at work) advised me to do. Create a routine that would help with the fast times!! I started but it was mental and only works when it was a calm day or just before service time.

Oh gosh I think I might owe the resort for a bottle of water. oh snap. We will see.Today was just a big big big mess. And now I am afraid of going to sleep cause of the crap my subconsciousness has stored and ready to release.

OXXO

Mayeshah!!!

Something's wrong

Ok, I have been working for 2 weeks tomorrow, and all kinda weird stuff has been occurring since I got this job. First week I had a pulse in my right eye for days on end. So I looked it up and found this:

Why Does My Eye Twitch?

Eye twitches can be triggered by a variety of different factors. Some of the conditions that cause eye twitches are environmental, some are physiological, and some are psychological in nature. Below is a list of some of the more common causes of eye twitch:

• Fatigue or lack of sleep
• Over consumption of caffeine
• Physical or emotional stress
• Anxiety or phobias
• Brain damage or other neurological disorders
• Associated with temper tantrums (especially in children)
• Eye stress associated with extended viewing of the computer screen
• Epilepsy

So I swear it is the Anxiety that I was taking on. Plus I felt emotionally stressed when I went to work.

Now for the kicker. I would have dreams about work. So lets say I come from work at 11:20 and stay up until 12:30am from 12:30am to 3 or 4 am. I am back on duty. However when I am back on duty I cant move. Well until I feel like have done something wrong and I try and rush to do something and I get out of bed just to do it. So I have had episodes where I woke up got out of bed and was heading to one of my side tables to give a guest some water.

Well last night pissed me off some because I sleep with my computer on in my bed and I minimized all my programs in order to find the POS Program for the restaurant so that I can put in orders (or get a check) for a guest.

Then at one point in the night around 3:30 (I remember looking at my watch) I was just looking around  my room in the dark wondering where I was.  :(

I need help. If you have any methods of relaxing or anything which would help me out late at night dont be afraid to share.

Well it has been two weeks that I have been working with them and I am still learning on how to make a routine of what I am doing. I am making tons of mistakes but my supervisor has advised me that I am new and everyone makes mistakes. So I shouldn't be afraid to come to her.

I will most def keep you posted on my psychotic brain activities.

Oh and I made 12,519 steps in 8 hrs yesterday!!! No wonder I look like I am losing weight!!!!

Make up your mind. Now or then???

First 2 days of work

Well, so far I have worked two days in the Hotels Fine Dining Restaurant. The first day I had no idea of what I was doing so I just did whatever the supervisor and the manager of the F&B services directed me to do. After that I assisted the wait staff in setting up the dining room and went to dinner. When I came back the first diners went to sit by the bar until they were ready to eat and the second they could tell how nervous I was. I almost cried twice but I buckled down and made up my mind that I am going to get through.
The second day was smoother with the tasks I had to do. However there were other information that I would need that would enhance the guests experience and lessen the amount of time i am just standing around!!

So to end off this post I will share this vid which is the a capella of a song that I have grown to LOVE!!!

Ants vs Mouse

Ok yesterday morning at the hardware we came across some serious craziness!

  ANTS covering the remains of what used to be a mouse. Lots of Ants  covering the fur and skeleton of a mouse that had been caught in a mouse trap. (the power of google images below) The ants had eaten the flesh of the mouse till it looked like that pic at the bottom. And it wasnt just one mouse but THREE!!! Talk about crazy!!!

So now I have much respect for the laws of nature. Everything enters the earth and everything leaves the earth in the ways only nature can conduct!!! (i dunno if that makes sense so bear with me)

Another Kissing entry!!

It seems like Kissing is on the grow right now cause I came across this on this Tumblr and just had to share it with the masses.

fightfireinyourbestclothes:

Effects of Kissing:

1. Long kisses are beneficial to our circulatory system. When kissing, our pulse rate is quickening up to 110 beats per minute. This is a great training for our cardiovascular system.
2. After kissing, the lungs work harder, resulting in 60 inhales per minute compared to regular 20 inhales. Such “ventilation” is a good preventive measure against lung diseases.
3. Some dentists believe that kissing is a preventive measure against dental caries. Indeed, kissing stimulates the flow of saliva that eliminates acid coat on the teeth.
4. Kisses that last more than three minutes help us fight stress and its effects. Long kisses trigger the chain of biochemical reactions, which destroys stress hormones.
5. Those who kiss their partner goodbye each morning live five years longer than those who don’t.
6. Kissing is great for self-esteem. It makes you feel appreciated and helps your state of mind.
7. Kissing burns calories, 2-3 calories a minute and can double your metabolic rate. Research claims that three passionate kisses a day (at least lasting 20 seconds each) will cause you to loose an entire extra pound.
8. Kissing is a known stress-reliever. Passionate kissing relieves tension, reduces negative energy and produces a sense of well being, lowering your cortisol ‘stress’ hormone.
9. Kissing uses 30 facial muscles and it helps keep the facial muscles tight, preventing baggy cheeks! The tension in the muscles caused by a passionate kiss helps smooth the skin and increases the circulation.
10. Kissing is good for the heart, as it creates an adrenaline which causes your heart to pump more blood around your body. Frequent kissing has scientifically been proven to stabilize cardiovascular activity, decrease blood pressure and cholesterol.
11. Those who kiss quite frequently are less likely to suffer from stomach, bladder and blood infections.
12. During a kiss, natural antibiotics are secreted in the saliva. Also, the saliva contains a type of anesthetic that helps relieve pain.
13. Kissing reduces anxiety and stops the ‘noise’ in your mind. It increases the levels of oxytocin, an extremely calming hormone that produces a feeling of peace.

INTERVIEW in the next .... T minus 11 hrs.

Ok so I have received a call from the Blue Waters Resort staff, informing me that I have an Interview on the 12th of January 2011 at 10:30am.

Now I am getting mad scared because .... I dunno how i will be after I get the job. There is no reason for them to not like me. I am bubbly and I love to smile. But tonite hit me of why I am scared to get the job. Every second and fourth Tuesday in the month the Expressions : Poetry in the Pub has their poetry night. (Join if you are interested in sharing your poetry with the public.) Every second Saturday in the month The Best of Books' "Wadadli Pen Open Mic" has their poetry night. (Another good place to share your written and spoken word.)
Every other Friday my mom, my sister and I would go to the C&C Winehouse.

Now these are the only activities I do other than surfing the net and talking to people on facebook messenger or msn messenger. And I am scared that my new found job might take away this. But I guess this is what I sold my time and energy in University for (and bought some very expensive knowledge). To have no time for myself and to be a slave to the hospitality industry. Where your time is very rarely fixed and very often shifted.

Well I just had to share that. Cause I tell everyone that my fear is of the interview but my fear is really the job.

The Science of Kissing

NO Honestly This is just down right interesting!!! It took me into my twenties to have my first kiss.
And of Course I found it HERE!!

The history of the kiss 
The first written kiss was documented in 1500 BC — when there wasn’t even a word for a mouth-to-mouth exchange. The earliest mention comes from India’s Vedic Sanskrit texts, which talked about “smelling with the mouth” and reads “young lord of the house repeatedly licks the young woman.”
By the 3rd century AD, the most important sex-text to hit the world, the Kama Sutra, laid out the guidelines for a good kiss, devoting an entire chapter to the act. It told readers where to kiss the body: “The forehead, the eyes, the cheeks, the throat, the bosom, the breasts, the lips and the interior of the mouth.” And it laid out three types of kisses: “the nominal kiss, throbbing kiss, touching kiss.”
Various types of kissing, mostly between slaves and owners as an act of reverence, began cropping up in Greek and Roman texts, including the Odyssey and the Iliad, as well as in the Old Testament.
Christianity hoped to bridle the passions of their devotees by relegating kissing to acts of reverence or charity, not out of sexual passion.
In the Middle Ages, kissing again underwent a makeover, where it was employed as a legal way to seal a document. Men were often illiterate, so instead of writing their names, they would draw an X and kiss it to make it legal (and that’s where we get x as the symbol for kiss).
Kissing lost its allure during the 17th century, when the Great Plague was at its height in London, as people opted to tip their hat, wave or bow to avoid making physical contact. It recouped its vogue in Hollywood, around the time that “French Kiss” entered English vocabulary; now heroes and heroines were often waiting for a kiss to complete the narrative.
In 1961, “Splendor in the Grass” featured Hollywood’s first tongue kiss, between Natalie Wood and Warren Beatty. Tina Fey and Steve Carell recently broke a record for longest kiss on screen when they lip-locked for five minutes during the closing credits of the movie “Date Night.”
The anatomy of a kiss

It may feel like the most natural thing in the world, but kissing is far from easy. To undertake the task, six major muscles around the mouth help to pucker up the upper lips, pull up the corners of the mouth, and pull down the lower lips. And don’t forget the effort it takes to cross your fingers that it’s worth it.
It’s not just the mouth; the whole body is involved in the act of kissing. When lips hit lips, five of the 12 pairs of cranial nerves, responsible for smell, taste, vision and facial expressions, are excited. Blood vessels expand, cheeks flush, pupils dilate, and the heart pumps a higher level of oxygen to the brain.
Meanwhile, the tongue, with its nearly 10,000 taste buds, is taking in the other person, while the lips, jam-packed with nerve endings, send messages to the limbic system of the brain, responsible for love, passion and lust.
All the while, neurotransmitters and hormones — like dopamine (brings us feelings of pleasure), oxytocin (fosters feelings of attachment), serotonin (also regulates emotion like dopamine) and adrenaline (which boosts heart rate and prepares body for sex) are coursing through our systems. These things are responsible for the butterfly, roller-coaster-ride effect that some kisses have.
About two-thirds of people tilt their heads to the right. Although scientists don’t know for sure why, some speculate that it is something we adopt in utero and others believe that the behavior stems from which side our mothers nursed.  
Why do it?

It’s not easy, causes stress on the body, and there’s always the problem of spreading germs, so why do we do it?
One theory is that the act of pursing lips reminds us of the calmness, comfort and attachment of nursing, a Freudian thought that might actually have some validity, Kirshenbaum says. Another theory along the same lines says that kissing reminds us of an old habit of “premastication” wherein a mother chews the food and then feeds her baby via the mouth.
But, really, the most important and obvious reason why we kiss is that it facilitates reproduction. Women, who according to studies place more emphasis and importance on a kiss, use the mouth-to-mouth moment as a way to judge the taste of the tongue, lips and saliva to see if she is with an adequate mate.
Sense of smell doesn’t just provide a window into hygiene habits, it also gives women access to the unseen DNA of their chosen mate. According to recent studies, women can smell when a man’s group of genes that manage the immune system, called MHC, are matched well to her own. Scientists theorize that kissing may be so ubiquitous because it gives women an instant check on if there is chemistry, literally (or less poetic terms, if they would make good children together).
But what’s in it for the guy? By kissing, men pass along small amounts of testosterone through their saliva, priming their mate for sexual intercourse, studies suggest.
Still, for how complex it is, sometimes a kiss is just a kiss.
“Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl,” Albert Einstein said, “is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves.”

7 reasons to have sex tonite!!!

To be honest I have saved these articles so that i can share them with you guys because i find them interesting!!! I got this here as well!!!

7 reasons to have sex

Look younger
A long-term study of 3,500 people between the ages of 30 and 101 found that regular sex may shave between four and seven years off your physical appearance. Researchers at the Royal Edinburgh Hospital in Scotland presented photos of the subjects to an impartial panel of judges, who were asked to guess their ages. The people who were judged to be the youngest were also those who had the most sex. What’s the connection between youthfulness and getting it on? In addition to boosting self-esteem and confidence, sex increases the production of human growth hormone, which is known to improve muscle tone.
Get happy
It goes without saying that sex can make you happy and contented, but a paper in the Archives of Sexual Behavior takes this idea one step further. Based on a study of 300 women that correlated condom use with depression, researchers concluded that women who never used condoms were the least depressed, while those women who always used condoms were the most depressed. One reason? The vagina may absorb the mood-boosting hormones and prostaglandins found in semen. It’s an interesting theory, but certainly no reason to advocate unprotected sex. Clearly, an unwanted pregnancy or STD would not increase anyone’s happiness.
Slim down
On average, sex burns about five calories per minute, depending upon your weight. Even engaging your partner in a hot kiss boosts your heart rate, which in turn increases your body’s caloric burn. Next time you’re too busy to work out, try getting busy instead.
Fight the sniffles
Sex may help fight off colds. In a study at Wilkes University in Pennsylvania, researchers found that college students who had sex once or twice per week had higher levels of immunoglobulin A, an antibody that boosts the immune system.
Keep the pressure down
Want to stress less? Sex could be just the thing to keep you calm. In a study by researchers at the University of Paisley in Scotland, 46 men women were asked to give speeches to an audience who, unbeknownst to the speakers, was told to act bored and disinterested. Afterwards, the participants’ blood pressure was taken—those who reported having sex within the last two weeks had the lowest readings.
Have a heart
A recent study published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology found that erectile dysfunction (ED) is often an early indicator of poor cardiovascular health. Researchers followed more than 2,300 men for an average of four years and found that men with ED had a 58 percent greater risk of coronary heart disease. Another study showed that men who reported having three or more orgasms per week experienced 50 percent fewer heart attacks and strokes as compared with those who had less frequent orgasms. Sex may help the heart because orgasm triggers the release of the hormone DHEA, which helps with circulation and arterial dilation.
Live longer
For reasons that are still unclear, regular sex may even add years to your life. A study published in the British Medical Journal found that men who had sex less than once per month were twice as likely to die in the next 10 years than those who had sex once per week. And guys aren’t the only ones to benefit: Researchers at Duke University found that women who claimed to enjoy their sex lives lived seven to eight years longer than women who were indifferent to sex.
So forget about an apple a day. To feel healthier, look younger, and live longer, an orgasm or two a week may be an effective - and certainly enjoyable - remedy.

The History of Lobster

Some interesting info on "Lobster" which I found here

The history of “lobster” being peasant/prison food…

 

…But they are themselves good eating. Or so we think now. Up until sometime in the 1800s, though, lobster was literally low-class food, eaten only by the poor and institutionalized. Even in the harsh penal environment of early America, some colonies had laws against feeding lobsters to inmates more than once a week because it was thought to be cruel and unusual, like making people eat rats. One reason for their low status was how plentiful lobsters were in old New England. “Unbelievable abundance” is how one source describes the situation, including accounts of Plymouth pilgrims wading out and capturing all they wanted by hand, and of early Boston’s seashore being littered with lobsters after hard storms—these latter were treated as a smelly nuisance and ground up for fertilizer. There is also the fact that premodern lobster was often cooked dead and then preserved, usually packed in salt or crude hermetic containers. Maine’s earliest lobster industry was based around a dozen such seaside canneries in the 1840s, from which lobster was shipped as far away as California, in demand only because it was cheap and high in protein, basically chewable fuel.

Now, of course, lobster is posh, a delicacy, only a step or two down from caviar. The meat is richer and more substantial than most fish, its taste subtle compared to the marine-gaminess of mussels and clams. In the U.S. pop-food imagination, lobster is now the seafood analog to steak, with which it’s so often twinned as Surf ’n’ Turf on the really expensive part of the chain steak house menu.

In fact, one obvious project of the MLF, and of its omnipresently sponsorial Maine Lobster Promotion Council, is to counter the idea that lobster is unusually luxe or rich or unhealthy or expensive, suitable only for effete palates or the occasional blow-the-diet treat. It is emphasized over and over in presentations and pamphlets at the Festival that Maine lobster meat has fewer calories, less cholesterol, and less saturated fat than chicken.5 And in the Main Eating Tent, you can get a “quarter” (industry shorthand for a 1‰-pound lobster), a 4-ounce cup of melted butter, a bag of chips, and a soft roll w/ butter-pat for around $12.00, which is only slightly more expensive than supper at McDonald’s.

How to be a restaurant host or hostess

By blunite62609, eHow Member

User-Submitted Article

Ah, the joy of the food service industry. The annoying customers, the whiny waitstaff, the hovering manager...the crap that hosts & hostesses deal with on a daily basis should make them eligible for an award or something. This will hopefully help you to get through your hosting job alive.

Difficulty: Moderate

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Confidence
• Personality (you are dealing with the public...an angry host = angry customers)
• A decent memory (which server was sat last? you must be able to remember certain details)
• Ability to deal with problems that may suddenly arrive (ie : large parties, slow busboys, etc)

1. 1
   You must be personable and inviting. It is your job to welcome/say goodbye to customers. You are the first and last person they will see, and you must leave them with a good impression. When a customer walks in, greet them cheerily with something along the lines of "Hello! Good afternoon and welcome to ___________. How many in your party?" Seat them as soon as possible (waiting makes them angry).
   
2. 2
   Know your table rotation. The tables in the restaurant are numbered, and each server has his/her designated "section" of tables. It is your job to "rotate" through each server.
   
   Rules of Table Rotations:
   1. You should not seat the same server twice in a row. I can almost guarantee that another server will get on your case about this...not good.
   
   2. If you give one server a 5,6,7+ top table then be sure to compensate the other servers by giving them several 2,3,4 top tables. **1 top tables do not count because they don't bring in a lot of tips for the waitstaff...do not count them in your table count.
   
   3. If possible, keep track of how many table each server has received. This will help to minimize the number of seating mistakes.
   
   4. Avoid asking customers where they would like to sit...they almost always choose a table that screws up the rotation.
   
3. 3
   Dealing with co-workers:
   
   1. Your manager- I have 3 different managers. 2 of them are understanding and flexible, and one is a complete a** My best advice is to avoid stirring up trouble with any of your managers. If they ask you to sweep the floor, then sweep the floor. If the ask you to bus, then bus. End of story.
   
   2. The waitstaff- Bottom line...waiters and waitresses are petty and whiny. They will complain about the number of tables they get and they will constantly compare themselves to the other waiters. I suggest trying to befriend as many waiters as possible to avoid seating complaints. If they get on your case, listen to what they're griping about and try to be understanding to them...they deal with the same annoying customers as you. Say something non-confrontational like "You do your job and I'll do mine. I'll get you more tables if I can..." If they really get on your case, talk to your manager.
   
   3. Busboys- Busboys are slow...they never clean the tables well...they always leave crumbs. My best advice is to keep a wet rag at the host stand so that you can wipe off any excess crumbs left by them before seating a party.
   

Tips & Warnings

• You should expect to be hit on. People often come into restaurants (especially ones with bars) to pick up dates. If you do get hit on, smile, laugh and brush it off with a professional questions like "Is there anything I can help you with?"
• Be ready for anything. Plan beforehand where you can seat large parties/noisy children/etc
• Keep your host stand supplied with: children's menus, crayons, toothpicks, mints, etc
• If you have any questions feel free to ask a server, another host, a busboy, or your manager...someone is bound to know the answer!
• 9/10 times customers will want a booth...seat them there for maximum happiness :]]
• Do not gossip about your co-workers! I made the mistake of doing this and caught hell from my manager

Cant sleep

Oh my Gosh, I want to sleep so bad but I cant. Everytime I close my eyes I either envision someone in the hotel industry trying their hardest to get a job and succeeding or I see myself being a Host.

I am scared shitless. I swear. I am not completely ready for this. I do not have questions to ask the interviewer. If the interviewer asks me why Blue Waters Resort I cant fabricate something (well i cant in my imaginary interview in my head). I dont know what to do or if someone would train me or if I will have to learn from experience.

I just did a lil research on what the Host's responsibilities are and this is what I found:
 

The host stand is your domain. To be effective, organization is key. The host or hostess job description includes keeping the stand or reception desk clean and organized at all times. Your first duty when getting to work is making sure that it is organized and ready for operation.

1. Make sure all menus are wiped down, free of spots or stains, and complete.
2. Make sure all menus are wiped down, free of spots or stains, and complete.
3. Make sure entry doors are clean, free of debris and inviting.
4. Check with phone reservationists, or answering machine messages to assure you have all reservations.
5. Check with manager to assure there are no large or private parties you do not know about.
6. Check with kitchen to see where they stand. See if they are behind or if they are out of anything.
7. Plan out the seating chart and organize the reservations (planning is everything when running an effective host stand).
8. Greets guests, escorts them to their table, pull seat out for the ladies, and present menus.
9. Make sure the server is aware they have been sat.
10. Keep the counts for individual server so things come out fair at the end of the night
11. Keep in constant contact with the servers and the kitchen to make sure you are not putting them in the weeds. A hostess job description does not include running a smooth shift, but it does separate the good from the great. A large part of the night’s effectiveness is orchestrated from the host stand.
12. Keep an eye out that the dining room, entryway, bathrooms, and menus are kept clean throughout operations.
13. Say good-bye to all of the guests. Check to see that everything was wonderful. Not only is the host or hostess the first impression the guest gets when they come to an establishment they are also the last. You should check with every guest and if there was any kind of problem quickly get a manager.
14. At the end of the shift you may want to do the server ant restaurant tallies.
15. Some establishments may also have you be a cashier as well.
16. Pay will be all over the map depending on where you are working and what is expected of you, but you can expect somewhere between $7-$15 per hour plus a percentage tip out from the wait staff.
17. The host or hostess description will very from restaurant to restaurant but this should give you a good idea of what to expect going in or what you should expect from your host personnel.

The property I am applying to is the Blue Waters Resort and it was started in 1960 as a 16 room guesthouse and presently is a 100 room resort with two restaurants.

Well since I am awake now my sub-conscience is at ease and I think I am going to take a lil nap before my alarm goes off.

All I ask is that who ever you are out there reading this. Pray for me. Although I am not the religious type but I really want this job even though I am scared that I will shit it up in some way or form. But if the universe wants to start me out in a position that I am scared of then I might grow to enjoy it to the max.

Tit watchin 550

Hey all,

This is my 550th blog entry!!! I have come along way!!!
Well Today I went to work and I have experienced the oh soo talked about tit watching from a few guys.

I had on a low cut blouse that I had put on for a after work engagement with the community. I also had on a scarf that i would wear around my head as a head tie.

I came in to work and a particular individual who has expressed his infatuation with me. So he came to me and said hi how are you? and I responded. Then he asked me if he could get a New Years hug (from Christmas, I found out his hugs were a little too long for comfort but it was the season for giving so i just let it slide), so i was like nope it is just a new year. While Christmas was the season of giving New Years is just another day. Then I noticed it.



However from a few forums I have checked (such as:

• http://answer.co5.biz/social-science/do-women-who-show-a-lot-of-cleavage-really-get-mad-when-a-man-looks-down-her-shirt-or-is-it-just-something.html
• http://www.answerdigger.com/70251/guys-do-you-always-stare-at-cleavage
• http://ask.metafilter.com/81770/How-do-you-avoid-staring-at-cleavage
• http://www.todaysmodernwoman.com/Skin-Body/25344.htm

And bloggerz:

• http://hubpages.com/hub/Why-Men-Stare-At-Your-Breasts
• http://datingrelationship-advice.blogspot.com/2010/01/why-guys-like-boobs.html

I guess it is an epidemic that will never come to an end!!! GUYS WILL ALWAYS WATCH A WOMAN'S CLEAVAGE.

But then it comes to the situation where I dont tell you not to look but when I am looking at you dont look at them. Nice and Simple!! I must admit my tits look good just dont stare!!!


You might be wondering, "why did she mention the scarf in the earlier parts of the blog entry?" OHHH yea Because I started using the scarf to hide my cleavage. When he saw i was doing that he just started to laugh and pretending that wasnt the reason why he was laughing!!!

OXXO

Happy New Year

I wish all of you a Happy New Year. Hope it is better than the one that we have just encounter. AND YES I AM GONNA SAY IT HERE AS WELL!!: I HOPE I GET A FREAKY DEAKY JOB THIS YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well yea!!!!

The only thing I shall miss about this year is ........ MY GRADUATION!!!

other than that this year sucks arse!!! However I think I am entering the new year a more open and welcoming person!!

Touching

Now they say it is better to love and get hurt than never to love at all. But the hurt part is my fear. This piece I got from a site i follow (check them out here).

You can go for weeks without touching another human being. Sure, there’s the occasional brush of the shoulder on a city street, or the brief jolt of an elbow at a crowded show. Those are accidents. But actively being touched, or actively touching somebody else: this is not a regular occurrence. Go without for long enough, and you might forget you’re missing anything. Of course, you feel an inexplicable, mild loneliness—but you can’t put your finger on its cause (pun intended).


Occasionally you’ll find somebody who reminds you that perhaps it’s worth it to risk your shelled safety. You’ll allow yourself the luxury of being touched, and the happiness of touching. Here I refer not to the sexual, but to the sweet and gentle: a kiss, the light scent of someone else’s skin. And then, suddenly and unexpectedly, it’ll be gone, and you’ll have to learn to forget.

Now this line is what scares me even more because not only is it hard to forget but you are going to have to forget something as comforting as a hug or a non sexual kiss. That is why I cant go a long time without touching someone, either a hug (which I would ask someone for if I havent gotten one in a while) or just a simple touch just to have that connection.

DUMB BITCHES!

I came across this video and I believe everything this dude is talking about. I believe that sometimes you just gotta keep sex and love as two separate entities. You have to know that you can have sex and not love the person but you cant love the person without eventually feeling some kinda sexual need from the person (i am talkin about man and woman love).



I also just finished reading a book "Diary of a Sex Fiend" and it basically is the same where just cuz a girl loves to have lots of sex doesnt mean that she is a slut or anything. She just has an over active sex drive and for the right person it could be tamed. Like taming a stallion. The author of this book has a blog but I dont think i can handle reading her stuff along with my other blogs that i follow.But for those interested can check her out HERE

The 7 Chakras

I came across this when I was scoring through a random blog!

The 7 Chakras

. 1 - Root chakra
The Root chakra is about being physically there and feeling at home in situations. If it is open, you feel grounded, stable and secure. You don’t unnecessarily distrust people. You feel present in the here and now and connected to your physical body. You feel you have sufficient territory.

If you tend to be fearful or nervous, your Root chakra is probably under-active. You’d easily feel unwelcome.

If this chakra is over-active, you may be very materialistic and greedy. You’re probably obsessed with being secure and resist change.

. 2 - Sacral chakra
The Sacral chakra is about feeling and sexuality. When it is open, your feelings flow freely, and are expressed without you being over-emotional. You are open to intimacy and you can be passionate and lively. You have no problems dealing with your sexuality.

If you tend to be stiff and unemotional or have a “poker face,” the Sacral chakra is under-active. You’re not very open to people.

If this chakra is over-active, you tend to be emotional all the time. You’ll feel emotionally attached to people and you can be very sexual.

3 - Navel chakra
The Navel chakra is about asserting yourself in a group. When it is open, you feel in control and you have sufficient self esteem.

When the Navel chakra is under-active, you tend to be passive and indecisive. You’re probably timid and don’t get what you want.

If this chakra is over-active, you are domineering and probably even aggressive.

. 4 - Heart chakra
The Heart chakra is about love, kindness and affection. When it is open, you are compassionate and friendly, and you work at harmonious relationships.

When your Heart chakra is under-active, you are cold and distant.

If this chakra is over-active, you are suffocating people with your love and your love probably has quite selfish reasons.

. 5 - Throat chakra
The Throat chakra is about self-expression and talking. When it is open, you have no problems expressing yourself, and you might be doing so as an artist.

When this chakra is under-active, you tend not to speak much, and you probably are introverted and shy. Not speaking the truth may block this chakra.

If this chakra is over-active, you tend to speak too much, usually to domineer and keep people at a distance. You’re a bad listener if this is the case.

. 6 - Third Eye chakra
The Third Eye chakra is about insight and visualization. When it is open, you have a good intuition. You may tend to fantasize.

If it is under-active, you’re not very good at thinking for yourself, and you may tend to rely on authorities. You may be rigid in your thinking, relying on beliefs too much. You might even get confused easily.

If this chakra is over-active, you may live in a world of fantasy too much. In excessive cases halucinations are possible.

. 7 - Crown chakra
The Crown chakra is about wisdom and being one with the world. When this chakra is open, you are unprejudiced and quite aware of the world and yourself.

If it is under-active, you’re not very aware of spirituality. You’re probably quite rigid in your thinking.

If this chakra is over-active, you are probably intellectualizing things too much. You may be addicted to spirituality and are probably ignoring your bodily needs.

poems

Ok I did promise that I will share my crap of poems today. I didnt get to share them at the poetry reading but I promised so here they are:

OREO

Black on the outside
White on the inside
 That is what some people say I am
Just cause I like Heavy Metal
And Rocking out to some Linkin Park
Can't speak a lick of dialect to save my life
I am an oreo

From High School
I have been identified as such
But is it because at times I act and look bougie
Bougie in the sense that I dress appropriately for certain occasions
And act a certain way because I don't know how else to behave
Or because I don't follow the stereotypes of
A TRUE BLACK PERSON

I accept this name
Not because I am a black girl
Who "supposedly" acts white
But because I know that everyone loves Oreos
Cause the cream is soo tasty
And the dark chocolate cookie makes it
Even more delectable.

THICK, CHUBBY, FLUFFY

Ship, Whale, House
Fat, Chunky, Humongous
Curvaceous, Voluptuous
Thick, Chubby, Fluffy

These are a few of the names
That some girls are given
When they got on a lil extra pounds

But does anyone know how offensive it really is?

You need to stop eating up all the food
You need to go on a diet
You need to stop putting on soo much weight

I am not even as big as some people out there
But my weight is harming you
Some way or another

I don't bother to tell you that I am working on it
I don't bother to tell you that I don't eat anymore because of you
I don't bother to tell you that because of you I am even more depressed than usual
Instead I just hide-away in my corner and cry

Mad at you
For making me feel this way
Mad at me
For allowing you to make me feel this way
Mad at being
Curvaceous, Voluptuous
Thick, Chubby, Fluffy

Well I know this is some serious crap but I did promis so there it is.

P.S. I dont even know if I would have shared it since I think it is that bad.

12 days of Christmas

Ok I decided to do a backward way of 12 days of Christmas. Instead of starting on Christmas day and going to the first week in January, i am going to count up to Christmas. So since i missed the first day (13th Dec) I shall put the first and second day of Christmas together :D I got this info from THE VOICE

ON THE FIRST DAY OF CHRISTMAS MY TRUE LOVE GAVE TO ME -
A PARTRIDGE IN A PEAR TREE

The partridge in a pear tree is Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, whose birthday we celebrate on December 25, the first day of Christmas. In the song, Christ is symbolically presented as a mother partridge that feigns injury to decoy predators from her helpless nestlings, recalling the expression of Christ's sadness over the fate of Jerusalem: "Jerusalem! Jerusalem! How often would I have sheltered you under my wings, as a hen does her chicks, but you would not have it so . . . ." (Luke 13:34)

 ON THE SECOND DAY OF CHRISTMAS MY TRUE LOVE GAVE TO ME - 

TWO TURTLE DOVES

The Old and New Testaments, which together bear witness to God's self-revelation in history and the creation of a people to tell the Story of God to the world.

I hate skinny ppl!!!

Noooo I dont hate skinny people. But I just wish some of them will leave me the hell alone. I am a  thick chick. Shoot some of my closest friends are slim.

Well today, I saw a friend of the family (more like a friend of my mom's) and I told her that I dont talk to one of my mom's staff because she is always ragging on me about my weight. Then she shared a lil bit about herself.

She told me that she doesnt much with slim people. She doesnt play around and talk up alot with them. She rather talk to someone is is curvier and has some flesh (and fat) on their bones. She then brought to my attention that she isnt as friendly with my sister as she is with me. At first I thought that it was because I was always messing with her so she just does the same back to me. But now she brings it to light I see why she isnt as playful with my sis.

She then told me that when she was younger (high school into young adulthood (20s) ) She used to be very slim. She is around 5'4 and she was 100lbs but then her baby daddy said that he likes plumper women and that she should gain some weight. So she went up to 140lbs and she loves herself at that weight. Then after she had her baby she went up to 185lbs and then went back down to 140lb and maintains that size. I love how she looks and hope that one day I would love myself with all my rolls and jiggles. But for now I just have to work on it.

Well I gonna watch a few youtube vidz and then read a lil bit and then go back to bed.

Hopefully this christmas

One thing that I wanna do is make Stringed Popcorn and place it on the Christmas Tree (and hope the ants dont get to eat)So I decided to Bing "stringing popcorn" and I found this:

How to String Popcorn on a Christmas Tree

Nothing smells as good as freshly popped popcorn. Once it starts popping the aroma fills the air, and all you want to do is eat it all. Allow it to cool, and instead of eating it, string them for your Christmas tree. This project may take a little time, but it is well worth the effort. Children will delight in helping string the popcorn (as well as eating it) so pop plenty--some for the tree, and some for the decorating team.

Steps1 Make some popcorn with any method you prefer. At least one large size bowl is needed, but that will depend on the size of your tree. Be sure to let the popcorn cool before you continue on to the next step.

2Thread the needle, but do not cut the thread from the spool. It will take a lot of thread for the popcorn garland to cover an entire tree.

3Start stringing one popcorn at a time by inserting the tip of the needle into the center of each piece. Keep sliding it further down on the thread making room for more popcorn. It's best to slide the popcorn to the end of the thread to prevent knots. Once you feel that you have enough garland for the size of your tree tie off the end of the thread by looping the thread, pulling tightly, and going under the loops a few times. Make sure that it is well-secured, so that popcorn won't fall off, and then gently cut the thread.

4 Carefully hang the garland onto your Christmas tree.

And hopefully the finally would look something like this:
 
And Me and my sister are organizing Christmas dinner!!! So we will keep you posted on the different dishes.
