Prayer Overload.


Bare with me-I promise this isn’t a religion bashing post this is “this is really starting to annoy me” post
Okay so here’s the scenario-
Let’s face it Face book has become a regular part of everyone’s life- (whether we like to admit it or not) And let’s face we all have that ONE friend that whines constantly. I mean were talking “oh I had the worst day ever :/” status EVERY. SINGLE. FREAKING. DAY.
OR
 the “I don’t feel good” people.
These are the people who you wonder how they can function in everyday life because they are constantly being struck by every ailment in the history of the world.
Seriously I’m waiting for the “I have the Scarlett fever post.” I mean it’s absolutely ridiculous. Okay so you have these attention whores posting these depressing, mood ruining status. Then you have this people posting things like  “your in my prayers.” And “I’ll pray for you”
Let me pause for one minute while you absorb this information…
Yes you read that correctly- people are praying over these ridiculous statuses
Call me crazy but ill keep my prayers for a little something, I don’t know…. more SERIOUS!
Come’ on people your joking right?
 Well I’m not a frequent visitor to these emo-status but I happen to have a bad day every once in a while…and I swear to Tom Cruise someone wrote, ”ill pray for you” on my status.
Are you shitting me? Is this supposed to be comforting to me?
How about you bring me an Icee and cupcake? That’s will help me?
Or offer to punch the idiot that ruined my day (I said offer.)
I don’t know but I guess I don’t feel comforted by people talking about my life right before bed or while on the toilet. Where ever it is that you do your prayers.
The point im making is if you really cared, you would I don’t know make an effort to help make my day better…how about a nice “Cheer UP!” Or “there’s always tomorrow”
Let’s not forget Vodka- Vodka always helps. Or wine? I mean who needs prayer when your have alcohol

I guess where im going with all this valuable information is: religion is becoming a joke. There’s no denying the power of prayer is powerful too many people but there comes a point where enough is enough. Offering to pray for someone who has a massive case of diarrhea? Please! There are children in Africa who need those prayers. Not to mention a few corrupt politicians that could use a few words of prayer.  And lets not forget my disaffiliation with most religious groups. Only because I refused to affiliate with a group of people who judge and exile others.  This says nothing about my relationship with God. We will just let our personal agreement remain between us. But seriously people think about what your saying and who your saying it too? What if I were offend by that? And don’t give me that bullshit about our country being built on religion. We have freedom of religion for a reason.
So here’s my tip- leave the prayers for big disasters and find some new words of encouragement. And when all else fails…. give them Alcohol.

Keep it Classy-

A Must Watch!


just a heads up on a new show you may be missing out on:

Are you there, Chelsea ? Starring Laura Prepon and Chelsea Handler. It a quick witted show based on Chelsea Handler's best selling novel "Are you There Vodka, It's Me Chelsea." Its betrayal of Chelsea's drunken escapades and full of her witty humor. the show is packed full of one liners you'll wish you had thought of. Not to mention a virgin roommate thats so entertaining its like finding a unicorn. It's a great way to spend your Wednesday night. Give it a chance; my guess is you'll be laughing in-spite of your self.

Do's and Dont's of break ups

Okay so its a new year-and the break up bug seems to be going around.
this is perfectly fine- everything happens for a reason, but i thought i would take this chance and give you guys and girls a little friendly advice on how to handle these unpleasant confrontations.

DONT's
1. don't lie- this is senseless, its didn't work out no big deal
2. don't make excuses.
3.text message or email - this is massive cop out.
4. don't use lame lines- "its not you, its me" (riiiight)
5. don't throw your new flame (if there is one in their face.)
6. let your ego get the best of you- i get it- break ups aren't fun but be the bigger person.
8. be scared of emotions- she may cry- but she will get over it. Don't freak out boys.
7.dont try to be friends right after the breakup- give it time.

DO's
1.be honest- but not brutally
2. make it quick-there's no reason to drag this out
3. make up your mind before you go into it- and be committed to this break up
4 be nice- theres no reason for name calling or pointing fingers.
5. talk it out- if you let each other get closure this will prevent any drama in the future
6. end it with dignity- we get it, it didn't work out-move on an appreciate the memories you got from your relationship



Our story has three parts: a beginning, a middle, and an end. And although this is the way all stories unfold, I still can't believe that ours didn't go on forever." 
— Nicholas Sparks (Dear John)


“I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.” ― Marilyn Monroe

Three for Thursday

Happy Thursday darlings! This three for thursday is going to be a little different. I'm going to three charities I'm going to be involved with in 2012. This is three ways to change the world..

My birthday wish this year is to 'F CANCER'
Fuck Cancer is a movement that activates Generation Y to engage with their parents about early detection of cancer. Over 90% of cancers are curable if caught in stage one- why the Fuck don’t more people know this? We’re creating a generation of early detection ambassadors who, by learning about what to do to stay healthy, what to watch out for, and what questions to ask, are taking control of their own health and the health of their parent

 On my crowdrise page i'm also raising money for 
The Trevor Project. 
http://www.thetrevorproject.org/
or join my team

My AXID sisters and i raise money throughout the year to support Autism Speaks

will YOU help me make a change this year? 
together we can change lives. <3
