New Arrival

 
It came in the mail, now I just have to download it to my laptop. I need to go to the library and get some books on it.




::Connie::

Intro

This is my laptop. A HP Pavilion dV6. I just learned that it has a compartment for my remote


I have a big smile.

I need to get some things for my baby:

a RED hard case for my hp
*I will have fun decorating this*


a wireless mouse


silicone keyboard protector


hp laptop speakers


a hard sleeve cover


a backup battery

and some wireless internet & a
 wireless card or hotspot

I will probably buy a laptop back or just make one.

Back to school

In 3 weeks and a day school starts back for me. I am reading about ppl doing back to school shopping. I haven't done ANY back to school shopping. I have been focusing on trying to get a job. I need money. I am trying to work by my school or closer to my house. I have a feeling that I might as well look else where, like Chicago maybe. There are always job in the city. I want to work downtown on the loop, like around state street or michigan ave. I dunno I just need to start crunching more of these job apps out.

Anyways, back to school. I just can't wait to meet new ppl, start another semester, meet new professors, and etc. i JUST CAN'T WAIT YUNG.

Day 12...♥ at first sight

How I found out about Blogger?
I googled "websites for blogs" and blogger popped up. I made an account and waited four month to blog because I didnt know what to do or say.

::Connie::

It's pointless you might as well stop


Sometimes I rather be alone, and do me. I hate having to explain myself all the time. I am doing something because I am doing it. STOP TRYING TO FIGURE ME OUT BECAUSE IT'S POINTLESS. YOU CAN'T AND WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO UNLESS YOU ARE INSIDE OF MY FUCKING HEAD.
::Connie::

I am doing some brainstorming. I need to make some money. Everybody and there mom is making money but not meeeeee. That well change.

 ::Connie::

Money can't buy you happiness, but it can buy you things that will make you feel better for a while.

I am starting to love this blogging shit more and more. I write all the time. I have notebooks and notebooks filled with creative things. I am filled with creativity all the time. I MUST have a pen and paper with me at all times, so I can write things down. I have thoughts racing through my head ALL THE TIME, even when I am sleeping. I go to sleep with my notebook under my pillow, so I write some of my ideas down. I decided to go digital. I am going to use my lapptop more.

Day 9-Something I am proud of...

This is a little late but I completed it, and that's all that matters.

I am proud that I completed all my papers from my English 101 class. This was the second time I took it because I didn't feel like doing the papers before. I went to class every day this semester. I passed the english portfolio. Wooo Whooo :)

The Definition...Day 2

The meaing of the blog's title, "Beauty, Brains, and Swag" it is something I say. I am not just beautiful, but I smart and I have personality. I am tired of dudes just seeing me for looks. I have so much more to offer, but most dudes don't wanna see past the looks. It's hard being beautiful, smart, and having personality. I swear. Then dudes get mad at me when I see the obvious, which is they don't want me FOR ME, but my looks.
 
The link's name "Hello, my name is Connie", is just my way of saying hello to the world. I am a very interesting person. I think the world should low key know me because I am awesome. I am entertaining. I love to have fun. I have a VERY opened minded. I try to stay drama free, but drama likes to follow me.

New and Improved

Well I have learned that I am the only I can truly count on. I haven't always been there for myself though. I thave lost track a few times, but I will no longer lose it anymore. I have been doing a lot of reading this weekend. I am wondering on a new me. I can't say I am perfect. I have mistakes, but I have learned from them. They make me a stronger person. I can't lower myself or my expectations. I am the only person that is going to better myself. I have been rapped up in this fairy tale. I somehow believe that Prince Charming is going to save me. HE DOESN'T EXIST!!!!
 
I must continue on my journey of being more independent and less depend of people.
 
I like everything a certain way, no matter how good I explain to someone how I want something done, they never seem to go it the way I pictured.

♥Crush

I don’t know why every time I am around this dude, I want to melt. It could be the way he carries himself. I can just sense he is not like the other guys. This feeling only happens a few times. I really don’t click instantly with people. Every time I am around him I can’t think straight. I don’t even know what to say or do around him. I do not want him to think I am strange, but then again being strange is good to me. I don’t even want to move around him. I use to couldn’t be able to look at him, but I am working on that. I can’t look at him for too long because I think he can sense what I am thinking.

I want to learn more about him, but I don’t know where to start. For some reason I feel like I am bothering him even though I am not. He doesn’t signal that I am bothering him. I guess I am in shock that I am actually talking to him, and he knows my name. I am just use to watching him, and him not even knowing me. In high school, he was popular and all the girls wanted to be with him. I am not sure if it was to be with him for him or because of his status. He is a very great athletic, and I am not just saying that. He really is. He is intelligent. You can tell just by observing him. He is very humble. He doesn’t let his popularity get to his head. 

I love having conversations with him, even though I stumble across my words. As I said before I can’t think straight around him. 
Until next time, 
Connie
