the oooo lalala academy awards...

So..I was watching the academy awards this evening..well I dvr'd them and fast forwarded through the boring parts of course!! There were soo many beautiful dresses and such great makeup and hair I am in love!! I would die to have professional makeup and hair done for me!! Amazing!! But anyways..my one of my favorites is........Gabourey Sidibe!!!  She is sooo cute..so sweet looking..so humble and happy looking!! I just want to hug and squeeze her all day long!!! She just radiates happieness to me!!! As from Oprah tonight...Gabourey was just trying out for the role for extra money as a college student and ended up in the same category as Meryl Streep!!! Wow what an honor!!! That seriously just amazes me!!!
I found this picutre from E! online..I think she is just adorable..I mean yes maybe she is overweight but she looks comfortable and confident in her own skin and everyone should be like this!! However...when I was looking for this picture people had blogged and tweeted so many nasty things about the way she looks!! It sickens me that people have such ugly nasty things to say... I mean who gives anyone the voice and right to judge and awfully critique someone so harshly?!?! For example.... " Stylish? Only if you can consider tents stylish! And like she had anything to do with picking out the tent..er, gown anyway. My god, look at those hamhocks. Sleeves would've been appropriate here, I think whoever picked her dress was having a good laugh at the expense of everybody's eyes. " but thank god for people like this " I hope you evil people become obese, so you would know how they feel. She is very confident for being her size, she is not letting no haters bring her down,and she looks good, you don't even know why she is over weight.I guess for you people being anorexic and a size 0 is healthy. When girls see that she is confident in her weight they will be too. "

So im sorry this is still a happy blog but that broke my little heart on how mean people can be..its so sad!!! But I think she is soo stinkin cute!!!! :)



Another beauty is Sandra Bullock...omg STUNNING!!!! I have read in magazines how she is the sweetest and nicest pereson ever and I definitely believe that she is!!! Her speech was great..and she is soooo sweet towards her husband!! I love it!! She definitely deserved the amazing award that she received!!! I loveeeed the Blindside!!!!


amazing!!!

Soo maybe I'll read it....

So today instead of cleaning like I needed to be doing I was doing anything but..and went and got my nails and a pedicure today...well I was reading a magazine while getting my pedicure..of course I forgot which one it was but..anywho...there was this article about an author named Lori Gottleib who wrote "Marry him...the case for settling for Mr Good Enough"...I have never heard of her but apparently she wrote this book about women being way too picky about men and wanting everything about their significant other to be perfect in everyway with the smallest flaw being a huge turn off or well deal breaker...How she was not worried about being single forever and if she didnt get married well then she wasnt too worried about it..but now that she is in her 40's she feels a little differently about things and trying to see what can still be done...well I was thinking to myself...I know some of the people..omg I am that girl!! I do want to get married and live a great life and enjoy everything but...I am sooo incredibly picky and weird about guys that I hate it... Im not sure if its just because of past not so awesome relationships or if Im really that weird..!!?? However ...I do not feel that I should settle for certain things that dont make me happy ..im not trying to sound like a dive..because im not really that much of a diva..well only a few rare days... but I just feel like when I have met the person I am supposed to be with that I will just automatically know..I just want everything about me to know that I couldnt live without this person and that yes I can live with their flaws...because everyone has them..im sure that I have more than I even know about .... so all in all...I think I am going to read this book...I mean couldnt hurt do ya think?? :) Ps...its not that I have a hard time meeting guys...because thats not it..but its just wanting to like a guy enough to want to continue something without being scared away by something petty...... anyone have any similar stories or comments...or a love story..I love happy endings!! :)

dresses ...dresses and maybe a few more dresses..

Soooo..it is absolutely frigid here in Virginia!! I am sooo over this cold weather and ready for the warm weather!! Out with the old and in with the new...yes please!! Well last night I couldnt sleep and looked at a gazillion clothing websites...I love all brands and style of clothing..from the cheapest to the most expensive and classic to crazy!! I wish I could order everything that I want but then that would require me to live in my car which would mean nowhere to hang them!!! Some of my favorite websites are .... of course Forever21.. Lulu's..Urban Outfitters..and Anthropologie just to name a few!! Here are some of my faves......

** Forever21**
