IHOP DAY

TODAY was rather busy for me. I'm working on adjusting to waking up at an earlier time frame than normal. I really wish I had my old schedule...those of you who drive from Antioch know my pain...TRAFFIC! I get so sick of driving to and from work in traffic. Sometimes I wish I was a character in Grand Theft Auto and I could hit the people who are driving like they have no where to be bright and early in the morning. Due to bumper to bumper traffic today..I was late to work :( ... which means one of two things 1. I will have to get up even earlier to make it to work on time 2. People can't DRIVE IN THE MORNING!! ...I'm leaning towards 2! lol.. Ne how I did my time at work, and was excited to fulfill my taste buds with IHOP TONIGHT! You see tonight IHOP has a special where you get a free stack of pancakes and you get to give back by donating to the Vanderbilt Children's Hospital.

I got to kill 2 birds in one stone..GOOD MEAL AND HELP OTHERS! I MUST SAY THANK YOU to my friend Ebony.. because I would have never known about the special. Well I know I missed you guys last night.. but I'm ready for action!

PRESIDENT OBAMA RELEASES EXCERPTS OF HIS SPEECH HE WILL DELIVER TONIGHT...

We have lived through an era where too often, short-term gains were prized over long-term prosperity; where we failed to look beyond the next payment, the next quarter, or the next election. A surplus became an excuse to transfer wealth to the wealthy instead of an opportunity to invest in our future. Regulations were gutted for the sake of a quick profit at the expense of a healthy market. People bought homes they knew they couldn't afford from banks and lenders who pushed those bad loans anyway. And all the while, critical debates and difficult decisions were put off for some other time on some other day.

Well that day of reckoning has arrived, and the time to take charge of our future is here.

Now is the time to act boldly and wisely -- to not only revive this economy, but to build a new foundation for lasting prosperity. Now is the time to jump-start job creation, re-start lending and invest in areas like energy, health care, and education that will grow our economy, even as we make hard choices to bring our deficit down. That is what my economic agenda is designed to do, and that's what I'd like to talk to you about tonight.

.....

The recovery plan and the financial stability plan are the immediate steps we're taking to revive our economy in the short-term. But the only way to fully restore America's economic strength is to make the long-term investments that will lead to new jobs, new industries, and a renewed ability to compete with the rest of the world. The only way this century will be another American century is if we confront at last the price of our dependence on oil and the high cost of health care; the schools that aren't preparing our children and the mountain of debt they stand to inherit. That is our responsibility.

In the next few days, I will submit a budget to Congress. So often, we have come to view these documents as simply numbers on a page or laundry lists of programs. I see this document differently. I see it as a vision for America -- as a blueprint for our future.

My budget does not attempt to solve every problem or address every issue. It reflects the stark reality of what we've inherited -- a trillion dollar deficit, a financial crisis, and a costly recession.

Given these realities, everyone in this chamber -- Democrats and Republicans -- will have to sacrifice some worthy priorities for which there are no dollars. And that includes me.

Don't Miss
Obama to mix optimism with realism, aides say
Poll: Expectations high for speech
Gov. Bobby Jindal gives GOP response
But that does not mean we can afford to ignore our long-term challenges. I reject the view that says our problems will simply take care of themselves; that says government has no role in laying the foundation for our common prosperity.

....

Yesterday, I held a fiscal summit where I pledged to cut the deficit in half by the end of my first term in office. My administration has also begun to go line by line through the federal budget in order to eliminate wasteful and ineffective programs. As you can imagine, this is a process that will take some time. But we're starting with the biggest lines. We have already identified $2 trillion in savings over the next decade.

In this budget, we will end education programs that don't work and end direct payments to large agribusinesses that don't need them. We'll eliminate the no-bid contracts that have wasted billions in Iraq, and reform our defense budget so that we're not paying for Cold War-era weapons systems we don't use. We will root out the waste, fraud, and abuse in our Medicare program that doesn't make our seniors any healthier, and we will restore a sense of fairness and balance to our tax code by finally ending the tax breaks for corporations that ship our jobs overseas.

....

I know that we haven't agreed on every issue thus far, and there are surely times in the future when we will part ways. But I also know that every American who is sitting here tonight loves this country and wants it to succeed. That must be the starting point for every debate we have in the coming months, and where we return after those debates are done. That is the foundation on which the American people expect us to build common ground.

....

But in my life, I have also learned that hope is found in unlikely places; that inspiration often comes not from those with the most power or celebrity, but from the dreams and aspirations of Americans who are anything but ordinary.

I think about Leonard Abess, the bank president from Miami who reportedly cashed out of his company, took a $60 million bonus, and gave it out to all 399 people who worked for him, plus another 72 who used to work for him. He didn't tell anyone, but when the local newspaper found out, he simply said, ''I knew some of these people since I was 7 years old. I didn't feel right getting the money myself."

I think about Greensburg, Kansas, a town that was completely destroyed by a tornado, but is being rebuilt by its residents as a global example of how clean energy can power an entire community -- how it can bring jobs and businesses to a place where piles of bricks and rubble once lay. "The tragedy was terrible," said one of the men who helped them rebuild. "But the folks here know that it also provided an incredible opportunity."

And I think about Ty'Sheoma Bethea, the young girl from that school I visited in Dillon, South Carolina -- a place where the ceilings leak, the paint peels off the walls, and they have to stop teaching six times a day because the train barrels by their classroom. She has been told that her school is hopeless, but the other day after class she went to the public library and typed up a letter to the people sitting in this room. She even asked her principal for the money to buy a stamp. The letter asks us for help, and says, "We are just students trying to become lawyers, doctors, congressmen like yourself and one day president, so we can make a change to not just the state of South Carolina but also the world. We are not quitters."




TV RATINGS ON THE RISE

Did you know that we are watching more TV these days? I wonder why that is... well I found a story on CNN that says Nielson rating are at an all time high. In the report, it was revealed the average American TV viewer watches more than 151 hours of TV a month..that's scary huh? What types of shows are you watching at home..it seems like all there is is reality TV out there these days...

Oscars & Entertainment

It's OSCAR time once again- you know the time where you see all the top HOLLYWOOD entertainers gather together in their designer gowns, tuxedos, jewelry and let us not forget the sophisticated yet elegant hairstyles displayed as well. The Oscars are a great time to see new fashion trends, make up ideas and to see WHAT'S OR NOT...As a fashionista I personally like to blend my own style to trends. ( I'm having a flashback..HIGH SCHOOL I remember drawing a sketch of my teal prom dress.. I was so excited and happy I created the vision for my dress..accessories and I had my hairstyle down to a science.)

Personally, I think my Swagger ( style and personality) is what sets me apart from the next person and I know we all can agree that there's that one little something about oneself ..the 'UMPHH' factor that makes you special and stand out.

Moving right along, I have so many things I want to talk about, but I'm going to narrow it down since is getting a little late. Never fear I promise to keep you in tune with what's going on ... I just wish that I could hear your opinions and thoughts more. This blog means more to me than you probably think. It's my way of doing something I enjoy and practicing my passion -WRITING. With that being said, let's get down things that you should know...




A NEW APPROACH FOR THE OSCARS

CNN is saying the rating have been down for ABC..so they are trying to make up with the numbers of viewers by adding some surprise in the mix.. Now will this be effective... I think not .. I mean come on all we have to do is Google, visit blogs like mine or go to an entertainment site to see the gowns.... I heard their not going to reveal who the presenters are either.. Do you think this will help their numbers?




HEATH LEDGER BRINGS HOME AN OSCAR




Okay so who could deny this man the OSCAR! I mean he was the best Joker I have ever seen play the role out of all the Batman movies I have viewed.. I know this was hard for the family to accept the award. Congratulations to Heath Ledger and Family.
Did you pick the right choices..check out the line up courtesy of ET!

TYLER PERRY MAKING HISTORY




Okay so it has been a while since I have dropped some words on the movie side of things. I went to the movies to see, "Madea Goes to Jail," tonight. I must say this is a WINNER! MADEA is a class act as always...this movie had a lot of good angles and it goes to show that you can't judge a book by it's cover. I don't want to give away the movie, but I strongly recommend this movie to everybody. Tyler did a great job with the cast-Keyshia Knight Pulliam aka Rudy Huxtable and Derek Luke( Notorious plays Puffy Combs) were my favorite storyline in the movie.

More importantly, I think it is a great idea to support Tyler Perry because he helps others start their careers, reaches out in the community, he has a message in his work and he made it from the bottom to the top. He has a true testimony. For those of you that don't know at one point and time he was homeless at one point and now look at him. God is Good All the Time!

Access Atlanta, reveals this film has already topped the box office $41.1 million, making it the highest grossing film Lionsgate and Tyler Perry since "Diary of a Mad Black Woman." Keep em' coming Tyler..





RIHANNA RELEASES A STATEMENT

RiRi is not going into details yet about her falling out with Chris Brown, however she did release a statement through her representative.

"At the request of the authorities, Rihanna is not commenting about the incident involving Chris Brown. She wants to assure her fans that she remains strong, is doing well, and deeply appreciates the outpouring of support she has received during this difficult time."

THINKIN' AND DREAMING..

Happy Friday everyone! Yes today is Friday, we have all been counting down and making plans for this day. It's finally here. I have been in thinking and dream mode here lately. Is it just me or do you ever feel like you have a load of ideas and dreams that are packed in the brain waiting to get out? Me being the creative and introverted individual at times, is what makes me shine in my opinion. Not to mention, my desire to be DIFFERENT. At any rate, I just have to say this blog is a testimony for me and the story on the 73 year old basketball player makes me A TRUE BELIEVER THAT ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE...THE SKY IS TRULY THE LIMIT! With that being said, let's get down to business for today...

So Mrs. Paper Planes bka MIA gave birth to a healthy baby boi around 2am the same night of the Grammys. I hope I'm energetic as she was on stage with her performance.. It was amazing to see her on stage peforming when it was her due date.
HE'S SO ADORABLE!






WHILE we are on the topic of babies..I saw on BET today that rapper Nas and his wife Kelis are expecting their first baby together. This is great news. I'm excited for them. It will be Nas' first son. A true legend will be born.


Tiger woods is set to reveal the first photos of his new born son Charlie Axel Woods to Golf magazine...Wow he didn't waste any time I read on Ace showbiz the baby was 10 days old. Do you think it's good for celebrities to profit and expose their newborn babies? I think if I was a celebrity, my view would be to save my child from the cameras and magazines until the child was at a certain age to decide if they wanted to be in the limelight.. What do you think?




This is an amazing story right in TN! This 73 year old man is still living his life to the fullest and making his dream a reality... HE IS THE OLDEST COLLEGE BASKETBALL PLAYER EVER... does this make all you older hoopers or those who have finished college think about playing the game again?

Meet Ken and see his story here:

TMZ has revealed the REAL picture of Rihanna bruises, busted lip and what looks to be a swollen face after the fight with Chris Brown. Wow! This is unbelievable..HORRIBLE! What do you guys think will happen with this situation? I hope there is a positive that comes out of this devastating situation.

"TO BE OR NOT TO BE..THAT IS THE QUESTION"

"To be or not to be that is the question"- William Shakespeare taken from Hamlet..

To be or not to be is my mindset today. It has truly been a long day for me. This afternoon, I was hit by a SUV while driving home from work today. ( the Vandy college student managed to bump me just enough to scratch my bumper and crack it.) So picture me sitting in the middle lane during traffic time on Harding Place. Not a pretty picture! ( The Vandy girl whom hit me didn't want to call the cops..I know that's the funny part right? I guess she knew she would be in for rude awakening since she was at fault or maybe her insurance wasn't that great?) Anyhow, we exchanged information..I opted for the HONESTY method after speaking with my father. Now, I'm going to pray that this young lady does the right thing. ( I'm really feeling the aftermath right about now..my back is aching a little bit.)

In addition, I must say I had a blast last night with my close circle of friends at PF CHANGS celebrating my friend's birthday. ( I definitely needed that break) It's nothing like being with my besties and sharing great clean fun. :) Little did I know I would be in for a little more than I bargained for last night. I'M A SURVIVOR! Nevertheless, I'm here to deliver the news you can use.


DONE DEAL ... It's official President Obama has signed $787 billion stimulus bill Tuesday this is MAJOR! One of the biggest ecomomic measures of our time.. what's your take on the Stimulus?

Anyhow, I'm moving forward slowly but surely to be where I need to be. I have actually managed to pay off another credit card. One of the deadliest, for me "EXPRESS" I LOVE THAT place, but in order to get ahead I'm going to cut back on that store.

CHRIS BROWN BREAKS HIS SILENCE

After a week, has transpired since the Chris and Rihanna incidient we have yet to hear anything for both parties. Well, that changed today. According to CNN, Chris' spokesperson delivered a message from the MESSENGER CHRIS BROWN..

"Words cannot begin to express how sorry and saddened I am over what transpired," the 19-year-old said in a statement released by his spokesman. "I am seeking the counseling of my pastor, my mother and other loved ones and I am committed, with God's help, to emerging a better person."

He added, "Much of what has been speculated or reported on blogs and/or reported in the media is wrong. While I would like to be able to talk about this more, until the legal issues are resolved, this is all I can say except that I have not written any messages or made any posts to Facebook, on blogs or any place else. Those posts or writings under my name are frauds."
