100 Days of Britney

"Who coming with me to the movies this weekend?" The answer is NO ONE! I hear so many people telling me things that they can`t do alone. YES YOU CAN! I get it, you want that extra company. Someone to laugh at the same jokes that you do, share the popcorn, and of course buy the ticket. I know you don`t get paid until next week. It can be hard going places alone and seeing couples and groups of people having fun together and face it, you may even feel a little embarrassed. Ashamed that you`re by yourself. Well, there's nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed about. Unless you`re one of those really mean, annoying people that are a pain to be around, then you don`t deserve company or a free ticket. FOOL.

Iv`e been reading and learning about this "100 Days of Happy" Challenge and I liked it! But, I wanted to put my own spin on it. Iv`e talked to you all before about how I LOVE to date but it seems so hard to find men who are still into that. Most of my friends live in different cities or our schedules clash so it`s hard to call them up when I`m free for drinks, dinner or a movie. After becoming frustrated about guys who don`t date and friends being unavailable, I decided, "you know what? I can treat me good too". So I created a long list of things that I had been wanting to do but kept putting off because I didn't have anyone to do them with. I call it "100 Days of Britney" instead. If I want to go have a drink, I`ll do it. If want to go see a show, I`ll do it. If I want to go to a new fancy restaurant, I`m calling my mama so she can treat. Ya`ll know I`m trying to save money.

So far, the feeling has been very liberating. We often get together with other folks to take our minds off of our own responsibilities, but it`s nice to just hear yourself think and learn how to enjoy your own company. After all, we came in this world alone and we`re going to have to leave alone. Unless you`re a twin, you lucky devil. I always wanted a twin. Not a sister though, I wanna be the cute one. Like, what if she trick my boyfriend and steal him from me? I`d have to cut her.

Anyway, I`d like to challenge you all to try this. Just erase my name and add yours. I`d like to hear about your journey as well. I mean, after all, you do come here and listen to me rambling from time to time. If you can`t do something everyday, try at least once a week until you get to 100. I started my challenge while I was living in L.A. It was easy because I was in unfamiliar territory and had lots of exploring to do. But you never know what hidden gems you`ll find in your own city as well. I'm not sure if I will make it to 100, y'all know I'm trying to get my life together. We're gonna see how far we get though!

Iv`e already gotten 3 down! Ya`ll know I don`t like to be bothered anyway. I`ll still take you up on that date though.

DAY 1: Long Walk on Manhattan Beach


















DAY 2: "The Counter" No carry out! Favorite meal and Sangria at my favorite burger spot in LA (why was this bill $30. Should of just gotten a water and fries)

















DAY 3: I LOVE CUPCAKES! I spent the day in Beverly Hills eating this and looking at things I can`t afford. A parking space was one of them.

JUNE 24TH FOR THE 26TH TIME

"This year I turn 26, damn it seem it came so quick. My ass and legs have gotten thick." Those are words from the great Erykah Badu. I tweaked the age a little bit. Man, I can really relate to that line. If you didn`t know, I celebrated my 26th birthday on June 24, 2015. Every birthday that I`ve ever had, I`ve looked forward to. I planned parties, organized trips, time off from work, etc. But this birthday was different. It didn`t feel the same this year. Usually, I`m anticipating the 24th. "What am I gonna wear?", "I need to loose some weight!", "I need home girl to take my shift!" Nope. Not this year. I was in the airport traveling for work because I. NEED. MONEY. I spent the months before planning new insurance and thinking about how I`m only 4 years away from 30. I can`t even click the 18-25 age group on job applications now. I`m starting to think about stability and stuff. All the bagels and sandwich breads are going to my hips. I`m attrac...

SHIFT YOUR ENERGY

"Get ready for a shift." Aight so boom... I used to think that only crazy, unfortunate things happened to me . Like, I was the only one to be chubby and teased as a child, I was the only clumsy kid who dropped everything, I never really won anything, I was the only one in the world who tried to make a mother's day spread and it end up being too salty to eat. At one point, I started calling myself "Bad Luck Brit". Whatever energy you put out comes back to you. Photo: Sierra Campbell Because of those experiences, I went through most of life almost always expecting things to turn out for the worst. I mean, I would think of the most horrible case scenario for every situation. Me: *Gets a new job* Also, Me: "Watch, I'm gone get fired for this pink hair and nose ring." Me: *Meets a nice man* Also, Me: "Watch, he gone have a secret relationship, a hidden baby and commitment issues." See what I'm saying? There...

SWIPE RIGHT FOR THE ONE TIME

" I need a date for Valentine's Day " or " Another Valentine's Day...Alone ." or " 2 more weeks til Valentine's Day, who's gonna be my date ?" First of all, why have we been stressing about this day since the end of December? Secondly, I need a "pre-date" before I go out with you on Valentine's Day. What if you end up being crazy? What if you're boring and I don't like you? Then when we go out, I end up seeing the guy that I really like. Now I gotta peace you out. You ain't about to mess up a potential marriage for me. Hell. As crazy as this may sound to you, I never really saw Valentine's Day as a day to be miserable and in my feelings about the man who's not here rubbing my feet. I do that on Tuesdays. I remember being a little girl seeing my daddy walk through the door with balloons, flowers, cards, teddy bears, candies and cakes for me and my mother every Valentine's Day. We could always expect ...
