“Man simply is. Not that he is simply what he conceives himself to be, but he is what he wills, and as he conceives himself after already existing – as he wills to be after that leap towards existence. Man is nothing else but that which he makes of himself. That is the first principle of existentialism. And this is what people call its “subjectivity,” using the word as a...

Infatuation -
random-junk:
A.) When someone believes themselves to be in love, but deep down, knows that it isn’t true love. B.) When someone feels unexplainably strong about a person, but doesn’t know/doesn’t care to know if it’s love or not. C.) A beyond intense feeling that is on the way to love. You have to be infatuated before it can be real love.

Why??
I’m in utter shock. I sit here, in the dark, wondering why you’re still on my mind. It’s like a freaking crazy mystery, and all I’m doing is searching desperately for the answers. I want nothing more then to have you out of my head! Oh how I pray for the day to come when you’re no longer involved in my reality. You just don’t get it!! You’re still so...

I will wash my face. And I use make-up remover. But the next morning it will always look like I just put on some mascara or black eyeliner and then rubbed the hell out of my eyes. Basically, I’ll stay home, reading or watching TV or something, wash my face, use the make-up remover, go to sleep at some reasonable hour, and wake up the next morning looking like I dropped 3 pills of E, had...

Simple Recipe: When on Holiday
sweetssangria:
Allow yourself to forget the day-to-day. Feel yourself exhale. Watch your rested eyes return, Feel your breath escape slowly into the crispy air. Listen to the span of time between each bout of laughter shorten. When you return from holiday, remember to pack those ingredients back in your suitcase. Incorporate them back to your day-to-day and stir.
I'm finally
random-junk:
Deleting all the pictures that I kept in photo bucket of me and my ex. I mean, I kept them because I valued the memories, but I honestly don’t give a shit anymore. New year, new beginnings, the past is the past, and that’s where memories should stay.

Yeeeeelp that’s right…I got a J-O-B with an amazing company that I am sure many have heard of, Yelp.com. A start up Internet company offering a unique opportunity for the consumer based market to have a say in local businesses around.

Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, The round pegs in the square holes, the ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race...

One word…OBNOXIOUS!!!!
myserendipities:
Homophily (i.e., love of the same) is the tendency of individuals to associate and bond with similar others. These include age, gender, class, organizational role, and so forth. In their formulation of homophily, Lazarsfeld and Merton (1954) distinguished between status homophily and value homophily. Status homophily means that individuals with similar social status...

I’ve spoken about this before. I think latinos in general are raised to be very aware, in tune, and comfortable with their sexuality. Its a very sexy culture. They embrace it. I was raised in lycra and danced the lambada as a tot. My parents would cheer me on,...

is when you have mastered the art of fully bypassing a potential hangover, after a night of champagne cocktails called Bubblicious.
Tips: Curtail the Bubblicious at a reasonable hour. Dance like you just don’t care. Avoid missing a step down the stairs…the second time around. Grab some fresh air outside while providing dating advice to random strangers who look like they may hook...

One of my favorite scenes from Shakespeare in Love
Viola De Lesspes: I will have poetry in my life, and adventure…and LOVE. Love above all.
Nurse: Like Valentine and Sylvia?
Viola De Lesspes: No! Not the artful postures of love, but love that overthrows life. Unbiddable. Ungovernable. Like a riot in the heart, and nothing to be done, come ruin or rapture. Love that there’s never...

I freaking LOVE soccer!!
I think my love for soccer is now bordering on obsession. I seriously watch at least one football (aka soccer) match a day. I love it so much I make sure to carefully set up my DVR to record all my favorite EPL teams. It’s nuts!
I can’t even go into how excited I am about FIFA World Cup 2010 in South Africa. I daydream that perhaps in the next six months I’ll meet some rich guy...
