~ Picture Post ~

I'm still very much alive........work= crazy.......and I'm loving it.

In my spare time between meetings and crazy deadlines, I play around with my Apps on my Ipod. There's one called "Backgrounds"- It lets you download pictures........Very cool pictures too, like this one. 

It's also got sections, and under quotes I found these.................Knock yourself out.

Quite frankly, looking back only slows down life's journey.

Hell yeah!

This is true.

Uhmmmm...........Not me.

I think we should always remember this

True story!

I see my 15year old cousin saying this.........ridiculous if you ask me.

Maybe.........then again, maybe not.

I totally agree with this.

Take the risk people.

Only you!

I believe very strongly in this.

Story of my life.

A lot of people don't know this

Saying nothing of course........

You heard that here!

Tackle them now or suffer for them.

I think so too.....unless ....unless..............never mind.

Smile for me :-)

To be honest, I found this out the hard way.

Work, work work! that's all I've been eating sleeping and drinking.

They say hard work rewards with success- Can't wait!

My birthday comes up at the tail end of June..............I'll be 1year older. Yikes!......

The Mister is also a June baby (cute init?)......and for the 1st time I'm stuck. No birthday gift.

All because he has everything, all the gadgets I can possibly think of, all the video games that make sense, and his wardrobe was recently re-vamped............*sigh

I guess a couple of perfumes and a good day would have to do it. After all It's the thought that counts.....he he he.

Then again maybe not...........

PS: For folks who in anyway like a little bit of fashion......have fun with my sketches on ~Diva's Divine~

PPS: I noticed I'm not the only one guilty of irregular updates...........the world is dragging its force over us all, work, school, business et all. We SHALL Overcome!!!!

"Never give up on someone you cant go a day without thinking about"true talk..*sigh* cos ive been thinking about giving up...

as for the birthday gift for the Mr., it doesnt have to be something tangible, i once took my boyfriend to the spa for a massage while i watched...he was ecstatic!

Lolia said...

Numero uno...numbre une...#1 baybeee!
That said, let me post this before someone else comments before me even though I was here first!

Lolia said...

Okay now, that said...Amen oh...we shall overcome and I've heard most of those quotes before but I still love them all :)

Glad you're enjoying work sweetie xx

Rebirth said...

some of the quotes there r my daily mantra........ thanx for giving me more.... i agree cuz the reason i put up walls is to know the true people who care......

Anonymous said...

Never give up on someone you cant go a day with out thinking about..
Seriously....?
Hmmm..
Instead of gifts, how about u just make the mister feel extra special for a day...?

Muse said...

when it's all said and done, WE ARE THE SHIT!

~Sirius~ said...

@ Bumight.......Don't give up! ...my thoughts exactly amongst other things. Hence me treating him to a "good day", I can imagine how estatic your bf was- they probably don't realize they need the spa as much as we do.

@Lolia....Uhmmm, Bumight just beat you to it :-(, sorry dear. No harm refreshing your memory with them. And we shall over come!

@Funms......your welcome sweetie....I totally subscribe to the walls.....whoever brings them down has to be worth it.

@Brokeass.......that's a hilarious name you know. Extra special day is already on the "to do" list- it's the least I can do. THanks!

@ Muse.........LOL! you are not serious. Hope you feel much better now.....no need expending all those emotions on the past, the present deserves all you have to offer.

bob-ij said...

hahaha that's what I always do. The whole Apps on my iPhone, but my own backgrounds App doesn't have that one. I want! I like the 8 billion people thing..hehehe sucks..or NOT!
x!

Love the posters, they really make one think

"Aim high, the future you see, determines the person you will be"

"Most people don't fail because they aim too high, but that they aim too low and hit"

"If you don't get ready for your opportunity, then it's not your opportunity"

Rita said...
