Respect My Authoritah!

Or not. I seem to have trouble being in charge. I've known this for quite sometime. I don't like taking charge of anything. I even have trouble being captain of my own soccer team! This has caused me MANY issues with the team. The girls will come and tell me what bothers them or that they're having issues with a certain player and I tend to put it on the back burner. When I do finally say something, it comes out totally wrong. One of the girls actually quit due to one of my text messages! I guess that might be a reason why I try to avoid being in charge. I'm way too blunt. Another reason is because I don't like confrontations. I just hate the drama that comes with authority. I was having this conversation with my friend a couple of days ago. She was trying to convince me to go into management. She even offered to do my resume. I kept telling her no, no, no, no, NO! I don't want to be salary and I don't want to have to worry about people meeting their numbers and what not. I like to go home and not have to worry about the day to day b.s I put up with 10-7, 5 days a week.


So I've decided to challenge myself and attempt to learn to take charge of situations. I mean I obviously taken control of certain situations. I can't totally avoid it. Sometimes its not so bad. I shall try to be a stronger captain for my team. I might not be the best player, I might even be the worse but, I can try to be the best captain I could be. I will also stop ruling out management. I guess if I was a manager in something I loved, it wouldn't be too bad. You never know, I can turn out to be pretty bad arse.

    YES! You can totally do this! It's in you but you might be afraid of your own success at something new. You just need to take that leap. In so many ways it's a leap of faith, faith in yourself.

El Tepeyac Cafe-Boyle Heights Some people freak out when I tell them I love going to restaurants alone. They think it's weird and can't imagine doing it. I find it to be the most relaxing experience ever. I can sit down, enjoy my meal and play with my phone if I choose to. If you've never done this I totally suggest you try it. One thing I've never done alone is go catch a movie. That is definitely on my to do list.

It'Ah Really Is Ah His Birthday!!

This year Mr.Andrade turned the big 3-0. Being the hard worker that he is, he worked on his freaking birthday! I tried to plan something big and extravagant since he was turning 30 but, no dice. Mr. Andrade is a mellow dude when it comes to birthdays so, I had to cave and go with his wishes. Not totally might I add hehehe. The night started with a nice little romantic dinner for two at Frida's in Beverly Hills. The place is very small and very cozy. We enjoyed our meals and service. He had Carnitas and I had Enchiladas Tapatio. To drink I had a Chamoy Margararita and he had a Jack and Coke. Everyone was very friendly and the atmosphere was very low key. Guaranteed we will hit up that spot again. After dinner we went off to meet up with family and friends at a cool little spot called Down & Out. I instantly loved it! Their decor consisted of celebrity mug shots and pin up pictures. Mr. Andrade seemed to like it also, which is what mattered since we were there for him. It w...

Sam getting her hair done by the amazing Amanda. Sami and her faces. This is actually after her second cut. She originally didn't want to cut it so we trimmed it. When Amanda was done Sami started complaining saying it she wanted it like Coraline. Amanda having to cut it, AGAIN. This is when Sami finally was asking for the Coraline cut. Coraline #2 Coraline, we owe you! Most people who know me know that I am not a fan of long hair. I don't like it all. Not saying girls with long hair don't look nice, some girls have gorgeous long locks but they're not for me. I think it has to do with the fact that when I was a kid my pop's refused to let me cut my hair. I use to cry and cry and my dad wouldn't budge. I remember for my second grade pictures I tucked my hair inside my dress and kind of pulled it out a little bit to give the impression I had short hair. I loved those pictures. One day, I think my mom either felt sorry for me or...
