30 Day Challenge: Day 13

I'm horribly tired and just got in like 20 mins ago. I hosted my bestfriends baby shower and I'm just now getting home after going out to dinner with friends. My eyelids are so heavy I'm squinching to see the screen but I'm determined to get my blogpost in for today ,albeit late. 

Day 13: Three confessions of your choice 

1. I have an irrational fear that I am infertile

2. Within a few moments (maybe I'm exaggerating ) of meeting a guy I like I've already envisioned our future kids and baby names . I do not have the ability to simply live in the moment. And I hate it .

3. I've lost my faith in God. Not all of it , but enough to scare me.

30 Day Challenge: Day Twelve

Day Twelve: Screenshot your desktop

Seeing as though I don't own my own computer right now, I am currently using the library's public computer. Safe to say we all know what their plain desktops look like. So I'll do you one better and show you my new phone lock-screen, I think you'll find it pretty funny!

30 Day Challenge: Day Nine - Eleven

I know, I know. Me and consistency just don't seem to mix. But , I won't let that be the reason I don't finish out this challenge . So bear with me as I play a little catch up!

Day Nine: Pet Peeves

I actually started this blog post and didn't realize that I hadn't posted it. Sorry!

1. Flaky people. I know sometimes life happens, but if it's a continuous thing , it boils my blood. I am the least flakiest person so if I come thru , I need the same.

2. Men who always find a way to ease sex into conversations especially in the beginning stages. Huge turn-off.

3. Non-supportive friends. I mean , are they really your friend any way?

4. I hate to be cut off, silenced, not heard. Just don't do it. Seriously.

5. People who aren't who they say are

Day Ten: If you could live off of only one food/beverage for the rest of your days what would it be?

Before I started this new healthy lifestyle , I would have said french fries and sprite. But for the sake of my health and eating better I would say French Fries and Water , Haha. Gotta have my fries, sorry.

Day Eleven: What is your favorite quote?

"But who prays for Satan? Who in eighteen centuries, has had the common humanity to pray for the one sinner that needed it most . . ." - Mark Twain

Deep. Spoke to parts of me that had never been awoken. What do you guys think about this ?

30 Day Challenge: Day Eight

Day Eight: Three things you want to say to different people


I contemplated for a minute what I would say and who I would say it to. There's a lot in this brain of mine. For a moment I thought about the hurt , the abandonment, the pain and wanted to talk to the people who hurt me. But that would just give the past a voice . It would allow the wounds to fester and never heal. It would prove that maybe their right about me still holding on to the bitterness and the hurt. So instead I've chosen instead to speak life rather than give rise to the dead. I've chosen to encourage and uplift rather than point blame and talk about hurt feelings. I've made a conscious decision to love those who are in my life because they want to be , including myself. And I've made the decision to trust God even with the people he hasn't brought in my life. I'm declaring this is my turning point. All I have to do is walk in it. Here I go.


Person #1: Ari ,
1.  You are a superstar
2. Greatness is destined for your life
3. I am here to push, drag and pull you across the finish line. I love you enough to see in you what you don't


Person #2: Davenport


1. You inspire me
2. You challenge me to be a better person
3. My life is better now that you are in it


Person#3: My Future Husband


1. I'll never love another human being the way I love you
2. I promise to wait for you
3. Let's make some babies

30 Day Challenge: Day Seven

Day Seven: Do you read? What are your favorite books?


How funny is it that both my blogs writing challenge for today is about books? Maybe that's the confirmation I needed to re-start my book club :) And don't worry , I won't copy and paste my other post here! For all those who read both my blogs, I love you all enough to give you different content:)


Do I read? Of course I do! Love it! Now do I have enough time in a day to read as much as I would like ? No, of course not. That would be too much like right ha-ha. But reading takes me to places I otherwise wouldn't be able to go. Being the hopeless romantic that I am, I am a sucker for a good love story , but I seriously will read any good story regardless of genre. I'll give you all my Top Ten (for right now) , in no particular order.


1. The Fault In Our Stars by John Green (TEARJERKER)
2.  Fifty Shades of Grey by E L James(My Inner Spirit Woman recommends it )
3. Detoured Destiny by Jessica Davenport ( So Inspiring!)
4.  A White Romance by Virginia Hamilton ( A bit of my Jungle Fever was born from this book)
5. The Bible ( because WORD)
6. The Entire Twilight Series by Stephanie Meyers ( yes I'm THAT girl)
7. GirlBoss by Sophia Amoruso( Yes Sophia! 
8. The Good Woman by Danielle Steel (True example of the strength women possess)
9. A Child Call It by David Pelzer (Sheesh, you just have to read it )
10. I cannot for the life of me think of this title so I'm going to leave this in its space until I figure it out.  

Like I said , this is just for now and I'm sure it'll change once I get back to reading like I really would like to . There are a few that probably won't change, but I guess I'll have to find out !
