Blog's New Look, and School

Ok so I wanted a new look to my Blog, the purple and the other elements were boring me, and probably people who visited it too! lol. But by time I had gotten the layout and edited to try and get the wonderful orange banner off the top of the page, I was beginning to get discouraged from writing. So i just left it alone, and decided to write. And now because I do have the new layout, I have to go back and put my gadget's back where they were. Fun! But I've just been thinking about school lately, and how I am really ready for it to begin. It's like a new start, and a option to redeem myself from all the mistakes I made freshman year. I consider myself, wiser, stronger, and way more understanding, way more. My goal is to make the most of this year, by being involved. That is always the best way to make the most, in my opinion. You have many possibilities with meeting new people that may open the door to new opportunities. I'm part of GSU's First Talk Show "The Express Lane" and this year is a good year to make the changes we didn't have the time to do last semester. I hope that I can make some ground, before I decide to go to Florida. Florida is classified only three people know about this...ie. Mom, Dad and Ex...unfortunately for the Ex he didn't take that well, but that's a story for another day! This year I just want to focus on me, considering last year I gave my life away, to my Ex. With a positive mindset I can enter the year, and end with a positive year, and I'm ready!

School, Blackjacks and Some serious issues lol

SCHOOL BEGINS! and i'm ready for it, these three weeks will zoom by fast, and i am one to want to be really prepared. Ok so besides that i have this Blackjack 2 and i'm in love with it, it will be my business partner until i can updrage to a blackberry ;D. Anyways, something that is bothering me the most is people, specifically those that believe they know everything and that they should tell everyone that they do. It's disturbing to me how, people, specifically females can flip flop between friends. They dog their first friends out, when a misunderstanding happens that they dislike, or feel threatened by and never speak to them, but have the decency to speak about them. Then 'poof' they're cool again! How do you do this? I'm confused, I've been through this before, and I've picked up on these peoples (lol) pattern, and it's not a healthy habit. Be consistent, its scary to me, because I know nothing about this, I know how to be true to my friend, I speak the truth, and yeah we may not agree on something or we may fallout, but we don't just fall off the map, and then mysteriously hop back on it again. Idk, it annoys me, how people never really see the true person until they have to deal with them directly. Everyone can be buddy buddy or bff's , biffles, until they have to stay with them, or directly deal with them, and if you can't hold it out through it all, then what kind of "bff" are you!? A "friend" of mine told they that they can't keep up with me anymore, and their tired of having to figure out whats wrong with me...then what kind of friend are you to me!?

Seizing the Day!

Nope not at all, there's much more I should be doing to seize the day, but I'm going to try and make it productive I guesS. I woke up with a positive mentality, and I'm ready to go. It always helps when you actually get somethings accomplished the eveing before. I''m hoping that I can get my business together, by the Summer. My motivation is getting my business license, and getting my camera! Once that's in place I hope I can get it together afterwards. I have a clear goal and plan, and I know it won't happen right away, but i'm hoping it's a success! See can't you tell the glowing positivity! As far as school goes...well I'm really going to have to prioritize, and some things that are not important, may have to go like mr.righ (aww) but we'll see. He's causing me to reallly question it, and ontope of some other things lol, which of course come with a story, but anyways, that's how i'm feeling this morning, and look out for MoniQue Deft real soon!

Too Long

This may be a little Tacky! but check out my Tumblr blog, you may find its a bit similar! LOL Tumblr
I’ve been away too long! But I’m back! Broke, Bummed and I have a date on Wenesday! This is my life, the last time I wrote I had a job, I have no idea what to call it now! They never call me in they meaning the koreans, never call me in to work, I’ve only worked two measely days, but from 3pm-9pm and 2pm-9pm so I ‘m hoping I do get paid for that! I’m reckless with money! I’ve learned aarrgh!! And I’m learning to do better, my picture, …i bought that hair, isn’t it nice! And I bought those glasses, that’s why I’m worried about the date because I will only have $30 to my name when I could of had $65! But the glasses I HAD to have along with the HAIR so i would look amazing on the date *sigh*. Anyways Mr. Right is likely to take care of everything on this date buuttt being the independent and stubborn woman I am, I would prefer to do it on my own! Swipe my own Debit Card to happiness! It’s sad how my life is going at the moment, and I’m unhappy, I’m thinking about selling my i-pod on ebay for some quick cash! That’s awful though! I could never sell my i-pod its my haven. But anyways that’s my current update. Later!

Drake's New Mixape

Get Drake's New Mixtape Here! I havn't listened to it yet, but I certainly have downloaded it! I'm a fan of Drake or Aubrey Graham aka Jimmy Brooks or Wheelchair Jimmy. Recently signed a deal with Young Money, and everyone was shocked like that wasn't the move lol. But him and Lil Wayne probably stay together (not really) but that's the type of relationship they may have. Also I really like Jeremih (Birthday Sex) new CD, its really good for his first, I've had it on repeat for the past week! I generally like most of his songs, except for one My Sunshine, the songs really depressing lol, but it's all good, all his other songs are really good! I would name the best songs to skip to, but that would be the whole album! A lot of people had some crap to talk but I mean it's his first , and in my opinion it was pretty good! Go check that out too! I may be able to get the full album download too,....absolutely free!! SO CHECK BAK HERE FOR THAT JEREMIH CD!!

Troubles of a Designer

people say some interesting things, i can’t stand ignorant comments, i’m sorry that’s just me..a few words that spill out your mouth can truly determine where your heads at…i guess i’m disgusted at the fact that that statement left this person’s mouth, but its whatever, only a few more months of this nonsense, and i will be back at the only consistent home i will ever have. I can’t wait until i go back to school 3 wonderful hours away from where I am at now, my philosophy “not too far, but far enough” ! Anyways, mr.guy has asked for a “me&him” day, and with anything new, i’m so nervous. 1. I have to run this day by my mom, and she is um very particular about who I talk to, so I hope the first impression is the best! and 2. The actual day…just going to be myself, a nervous wreck lol, and hopefully it will all smooth out. I hope that I am comfortable around, because if i’m not i don’t know what will happen. I can talk a whole lot, but in person, especially meeting someone for the first time, i am a mute. I just thought about this logo i’m doing for somebody, and I’m so frusterated, I mean I’m not THE best graphic designer because, i’m only 19 and i havn’t had any real training , so basically any work that I have done I’ve taught myself. So i’ve struggled and contemplated over this person’s logo, and at first I tried to talk them out of it, because I didn’t have the skills to do 3D, then I was like well its a challenge..so I accept. Then I got to working and came up with the first version of the logo, but it didn’t have any color, and was pretty flat lol. I buckled down and dished that one, sat and concetrated, and came up with a logo that is somewhat 3Dish and very colorful! I was so excited because I had faced a challenge and overcame it! And i thought i had actually done pretty well considering I have no real knowledge of anything 3D. And my clients response was “lol its cute”…my heart dropped so low…and I just became angry. The client is a guy sooo, cute is NOT an option, when its supposed to be sinsiter, mean, raw, whatever word you want to describe thats opposite of “cute”. My response is “???” and “so how do I not make it cute”….I get this back “idk”…”i failed art”…”lol,sorry”…I dismissed myself, but I was VERY upset, and VERY dissapointed, my work isn’t perfect, and i don’t profess it the best, but i try. And then on top of that he’s getting TWO logos for $60, and has already gotten another FREE, so I just want to say “f you pay me” excuse my language but on the real. He can go find someone else to create him a logo, because he certainly will not get one for $60, that’s probably unheard of in the graphic design community, I may be looked down upon in shame for my price offer, (lmao probably not…too dramatic) but I’m saying, really? so this one has urked me, very much, and i don’t even know how to approach the situation, at first I was going to ignore it, but I took it on, and now, I want to give up..

No Words at all

Hi! I Don't have much to talk about, I went to my brothers place to go job hunting, I mean I guess i did okay. That Friday Morning I was up to about 3 am BROADCASTING! lol just talking, on Justin.tv, it was interesting at first, it was like i had invited many people into my room all at once, they were watching me live!...but anyways like i said not much to say, been away from my computer for two days, and i don't know how to act lol. Later!

Slip of The Mind, and Return of the Fantanas!!

I almost forgot to blog, this has to be consistent, so it becomes a habit! But today today today...um it was okay really nothing exciting you know. My life isn't that exciting anyways...but I made a new t-shirt that say's TWEET ME ...and i'm working on another that say textually active but that one will be more artsy! A lot of time an energy! Phew! So I thought about Fanta maybe a couple weeks ago...not that long ago, and low and behold their back!! The Fantanas "don't you wanna...wanna fanta!" lol anyways its on youtube but the video is on hand ....Return of the Fantanas. And today i saw the video by Se7en, but i heard it on BET! What!!? well Se7en; Choi-Don Wook, is duh! Asian but what suprised me was that he was on the Black Entertainment Television. I'm guessing he was only on there because of Lil Kim which in my opinion made the video awful, he could have done perfectly fine without her! But what will become of this BET? Can more hot asians be on BET!? Please? Just find a popular African American artist to be on their video...its easy! Anyways lol...just saying it was relief from the norm...

Laptop Hassle, Shocking Results, and a storm

I'm so frusterated, my intention was to write this blog earlier this morning at 9 am! But my laptop was acting strange, as if someone was teasing me...I would type a little bit and then it would exit me out of the web browser. Glad now because it seems like it won't do it anymore. But I wanted to blog about the fact that I was up until 4am (lol) watching a member of my most favorite male r&b group, make a song! Technology is so amazing,..and heavenly (well in this case). Willie of Day 26 went live to show all his fans, that he could write a new song. So devoted fans of Willie and Day 26 watched while he was in the studio. The song's topic was 'the bedroom'...yep! you heard it here first people...'the bedroom' and while Willie was in the process of making the song...us fans got a taste of 'the bedroom'...we all know this song so well, who can forget 'the bedroom' lol...of course this is all we heard during most of session lol...and that's all we know lol. But i could care less..i'm watching Willie and listening to him sing!...what more could I want! Day 26
is who i play the most that is on my i-pod...love em. Moving on I ran across this article on Teen Vogue, that gave statistics and answers to questions about 'hooking up'. Now in this day and age, 'hooking up' is just so broad...I know that me personally I was so shocked about what i read in here..and i guess because i grew up differently, but i'm like is this what the kiddies getting into today??... but what shocked me the most was these teens responses about Oral Sex, is it really considered sex? Read the article and Check out the results..Hooking Up The Storm is gone now, lol thought I'd add that since its in my title...pretty quick storm too...

Obama Failed!? No Sir I Believe Otherwise

I got ready to log into my yahoo account to check my email, and I saw two words that I beleive do not need to be placed together in the same sentence 'Obama' and 'Failed'. Yes I am an Obama supporter, I believe I am so blessed to live in this day and age, where an African American is President of The United States, it only inspires me. Anyways I havn't checked out the article, and I soon will but I felt like who ever this guy is...he hasn't really payed attention to his surroundings. I feel like there is an air of relief over the American People, yeh the economy isn't the most pleasing thing to discuss...but I can honestly say that I can see some of the changes, minor though, their still changes, and that means progress. I even feel at ease a bit, and what for? lol I'm a college student, and a lot of people say being in college is a shield to the reality of the economy...nope it isn't. They hike prices for us students, making it hard for many of us to enjoy, simple life, fear of the price of tuition, and BOOKS!! oh gosh don't get me started on books! But in other words I feel like Obama has not failed...this guy is just impatient...good things come to those who wait! Check out the article and tell me what you think Obama Failed

Bright Ideas

Good Afternoon! Well at my time (12:50 pm) exactly! Well not much to speak of today. I've been searching around on sites and looking at people's work and I realized that I want a Brand, a recognizable brand, that associates my name with that image...and I can't think of much. I know that I want a little person lol...that is similar to me...but idk how that would translate, or maybe I don't need a little person just something that is recognizable. Oh well it will come to me, any drawers or illustrators out there?, willing to help? lol But I wanted to mention this artist in my blog because their work is really amazing, and like their concept. Miss Kika Its cool so check their site out! Just still doing the usual today, contact me on twitter!! Personal and Business, I don't Care! lol and check out my t-shirt designs too! Tell Me What You Think!

The Closer, Useful Sites, and Check My I-Pod!

FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER!!! LOOK TO YOUR RIGHT!!!
The Closer! I officially love that show, I mean I always had but I wasn't consistent with the viewing..TNT has given me something to look forward to on Monday evenings. Super! I've been looking at some sites, to help me expand myself so I can get more people to view my T-Shirts. I've been connecting on twitter and facebook (sort of lol). But i was sent an email the other day to check out a site dealing with art. I scimmed through it, and forgot about it. Today, rather this evening I actually decided to go through it and read the posts, and found that they were very helpful and the advice is reliable. Etudiant' D Art Site I'm new to this whole art business thing, and I'm sitting here with a big question mark on my head, because I have people asking me to do artwork for them like logo's and mixtape covers, and I don't know what to expect or do. I can design the work...but it's much bigger than that! But sites like these, (and people that put them together) are such a life saver, and just want to say THANKS!! lol It's very simple to stop and read , and gain a bit more of information. I am also trying to figure out what is it with the ad in between my post? That's no fun at all. And I hope the music is suitable..its my taste...you should shuffle through my i-pod and see what i listen to!
ALSO ALSO ALSO DO ME A FAVOR!!! and check out the cool kicks...very nice...I love shoes! What woman doesn't?

Don't Get Discouraged!

So I woke up super late today, and now that i'm getting older i'm getting to the point where i get upset with myself if i wake up late, because that is less time in the day to be productive. So I jumped up took a shower...blah de blah, had a bowl of cereal and got to work, trying to come up with some more designs. I felt a headache coming on so i decided a plate of pancakes and a tall glass of orange juice...would ease my worries...and it did! Unfortunately i was having a little trouble with a design, my creative juices just weren't flourishing today! In other news...finding a job is super hard! I need help, guidance, assistance, and my parents to get off my back about it...but that wont change! I would love the possibility of owning a at home business, earning millions of dollars...wah wah i have to wake up from that day dream..and realize i need a 9 to 5 job bringing in the cash...and right now that's really difficult to find. In my opinion I don't think I have much experience for a waiting gig at Joe's Crab Shack, especially if most of my jobs i held had me in a dark room filing papers from dawn to dusk. But I wish that my other qualities would shine rather than my experience...i mean I want a interesting job where i can meet people...and not meet paper! I need a real job for now! Pretty soon it will be back to the books! And I want to make this summer last , and make the most!
In the meantime scroll down and check out my awesome t-shirt designs, only from the mind and noggin of me!
Thank-You so much!! and even if you don't buy...comment and spread the word! There may be a free t-shirt in it for you!

Communicating,Connecting and Return of the Girl Group

Phew! I've been a busy body today, and I am mentally exhausted. Last night I finally decided to take some initiative to start my t-shirts business! With some research and a laptop, I have launched it. Starting off small though, I'm not rich, but I love the idea of being the force behind me succeeding, and I am excited!! So please check out my t-shirts. Right now I'm just designing for females, but if it calls for it, I can shuffle both! http://www.zazzle.com/nque_09
Well while I was working I was listening to my i-pod (like always) I love this thing, and I began to think about the rise of the girl group again. I mean we've had girl groups in the elate past such as Destiny's Child and Danity Kane ( a moment of silence for them both) But I'm finding that Girl groups are rapidly growing! Currently my favorite group is Sophia Fresh, they have an amazing style in my opinion, different, and eye-catching is what i like. Its also unique! Signed on with Nappy Boy (T-Pain) i believe they will succeed and already has! Check them out! My Favorite song by them is What It Is. http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=54384214 Another group I stumbled upon was Electrik Red, i'm a baby listener to them, so I don't know much, except that I like them! Check them out as well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLVxuq4vInQ When we tragically lost the two most famous girl groups of this age, we were able to gain more! Power to the girl groups! Lol
