Would you believe that summer is already here? I love the summer time, although here in Saint Lucia its 365 days of sun, sea, sand and breeze!! I remember my college days in New York during the summer, wishing that I could spend my sunnder days lazing on a beach. Thats wen I found out about the Outer Banks rentals, the ideal spot in the Carolinas where I could spend my summer in an awesome house next to the beach!! Too bad I had summer classes

Anyway, check it out because they have some pretty sweet deals this summer season!

Boy, you guys must think that I have abandoned my blog. Well, I did! Not intentionally, though. It has been an EXTREMELY BUSY period for me – trying to balance work, family, and a few other projects that I am currently working on. One of these projects involves helping a friend make plans for a business, and going over all the details pertaining to the location, ordering the products and also the equipment such as the computer, barcode scanner, tools needed for decorating the interior, and lots more! Anyway, I should be done planning by next month and that should leave lots more time to focus on my lovely blog!!

What is Liporexall?
Liporexall is a fat burner that contains 11 patented and clinically tested fat burning ingredients. Will Liporexall’s ingredients really help you lose weight, burn fat and keep those pounds off? Hmmm … with all these fat burners out there, I’m guessing none of the others don’t work since there are still so many overweight people out there. So, does Liporexall really work? I really wonder if it’s the real deal. Hmmmm

My boyfriend gets so upset with me when I go about finding faults with any and everything. It’s not my fault that I am a perfectionist, and I pay close attention to detail. For instance, we visited this hotel last weekend, and I was horrified when I noticed that they still used a CRT TV in their lounge. I mean come on, we’re in 2009 … you need something to keep your customers inside your establishment, and one of the simplest ways is to purchase a plasma tv, and a plasma tv mount. Place the TV where patrons at the bar can get a perfect view, put on the soccer, basketball or even cricket match, and then the customers will be enticed to stay and watch the game, while at the same time, spending money on drinks at your bar. *sigh*. I mean, who would want to watch a game on a small, old tube tv?

I was watching my favorite TV Show “House” last night, and I became very alarmed when one of the patients was unveiled. He was a very obese man, who was so fat that he could not fit into a wheelchair, or a hospital bed. In fact, all his procedures had to be done in his hospital room, since he was too big to fit into the hospital equipment, such as the MRI machine. In cases like this, when people are so overweight that it gets to the point where their life is at risk, I believe that they should be put on a diet, and also have a fat burner pill prescribed to them, in order to combat their weight issues. I have nothing personal against fat people. I just believe that we should not let our weight increase to a point where our health and lives are at risk.

You meet someone, you guys go out on a few dates, and you begin to really feel that person. After getting to know a bit more about each other, you decide not to see anyone else, and date exclusively. You have fun together, you fight, you make up, and break up, and make up again. You go through so much crap, but then realize that you want to spend the rest of your life with each other.

One of you goes shopping for diamond engagement rings, and decides to pop the question. Traditionally, the men are the ones who [are expected to] pop the question – to go down on one knee, or whatever other form of proposal they wish. However, what if the woman is the one who proposes? What if I take the first step, and ask my boyfriend to marry me?

Interesting, huh? I personally see nothing wrong with that. We live in an ever-changing world, where there is no longer such a thing as “what a man is supposed to do” and “what a woman is supposed to do”. So tell me, what do you think? Can a woman propose to a man?

Really, what’s wrong with being promiscuous? I mean, the worst that could happen is that the female can get pregnant and not know who the baby’s daddy is; or we could just end up becoming infected with syphilis, gonorrhea, herpes, HIV or other life threatening STD’s. Certainly, the PROs of being promiscuous definitely outweigh the CONs, don’t they? Okay … now it’s time for me to stop being sarcastic.

Lately, I’ve been speaking to some females around my age (I will refer to them as acquaintances, rather than friends) and I was quite alarmed at some of our conversations. Here is one, for instance:

Girl:   Remember the cute guy that I told you that I had a crush on last week?

Me: Yeah, what about him?

Girl: Well, he’s my boyfriend now.

Me: Okay, cool. Nice catch lol. (and random conversation continues)

One week later ….

Girl: I’m depressed. I want to break up with my boyfriend.

Me: Already? Why? What happened?

Girl: Well, I never really liked him, I just had a crush on him and I f*cked him, but he’s no good in bed, so now I have no use for him. Plus, he is annoying.

At this point I am shocked and speechless. Thankfully my cell phone rings, so that I don’t have to continue this conversation.

Apart from this conversation, many females have hinted that they would sleep with guys soon after they started speaking to them. My question is, do all females do that? Was I so caught up in my own little world that I never realized that we (females) are just as promiscuous as the males?

Maybe I am old fashioned, but I believe that before I end up in bed with a guy, I must first get to know him, spend time with him, develop feelings for him and TRUST HIM (and this process does not take only two weeks). Since when are we jumping headfirst into something as serious and delicate as sexual intercourse, within a matter of days of meeting the guy? What happens when we find out that the guy was only using us, that he has some disease, or a bad reputation, or is married with kids? If we continue this cycle of meeting a guy, sleeping with him, breaking up, moving on to the next guy, sleeping with him, breaking up, etc., where the hell are we going to end up?

I found out from my friend Al that when it comes to HIV, the Caribbean is the second most infected region in the world, with Sub-Saharan Africa being the first. Imagine that we are more infected than all those other LARGER regions.

At the end of 2007, an estimated 230,000 people were living with HIV and AIDS in the Caribbean. Some 20,000 people were newly infected during 2007, and there were 14,000 deaths due to AIDS.

In two countries in this region – the Bahamas and Haiti – more than 2% of the adult population is living with HIV. Higher prevalence rates are found only in sub-Saharan Africa, making the Caribbean the second-most affected region in the world. Half of adults living with the virus are women.

I am genuinely concerned about our health and sexual habits in the Caribbean, hence my reason for writing this post. Sex is a wonderful thing, but carelessness and having sexual intercourse with multiple (or even one) sexual partner(s) can ruin our lives. I have seen people die from AIDS, and it was not a pretty sight. I know people with herpes who have to deal with disgusting outbreaks, and who are on medication for the rest of their lives. Lades, make sure that you not only have one sexual partner, but practice safe sex as well. Don’t only rely on the pill – use condoms as well because even if you are being faithful, you don’t know if your partner is messing around. If you can’t resist the urge to sleep with every guy that you fancy, at least use protection (and carry your own condoms because guys always claim to “forget” theirs at home or in their other pair of jeans).

Guys, I know that the tone of this post was directed to the females, but you should think about this as well, as MANY of you are evn more promiscuous than the females. I will leave you guys with some reading material so that you can see this is NOT A JOKE!

I know I said that this blog would not contain any more personal posts, but I am going to make an exception just this once. I had this weird dream last night, which caused me to wake up, soaked in beads of sweat. In the dream, I discovered that I was pregnant, and quite happy about it too. I skipped on the streets of NY, buying baby clothes, going to the baby shower party supply store, and even visiting Toys R’ Us to get toys. *sigh* Dreams are something else…

It’s very hard to believe that I’ve already been employed at my workplace for six months. Its funny how time flys by, huh? It seems like yesterday when I was walking on the streets of New York!! Well, my job is cool but my traveling to work on a daily basis (1 hour each way) is taking a toll on my body. I can’t wait until I get my vacation because I definitely want to take some time off to relax. The Westgate resorts look spectacular, and if I can afford it, I will definitely be staying there. I guess I better start saving!

Man, I am so tired. I’ve been searching for some cheap computer memory and some other computer parts so that I could attempt to fix my old desktop computer. It mysteriously stopped working last year, and instead of fixing it, I just bought a new one. Now, I think that I might as well pinpoint the problem, see if  I could purchase some cheap parts in order to repair it. If it is able to be repaired, then I will definitely sell it. I’m off to bed now, though!
