Empire State of Mine

"It's always the same dream. I'm in the city and I belong. Manhattan is mine. But then I always wake up." - Carrie Bradshaw

City that never sleeps..-www.tripadvisor.com

It’s the city that never sleeps, a place where doors open for new hopefuls who dreams of making it on the stage of Broadway and Julliard come alive, where socialites live for the designer labels of the great Louis Vuitton, Ralph Lauren, Vogue and Chanel. This is New York City.

My ultimate goal is one day to walk through the streets of New York City and say I've finally arrived. How does this relate to the singles guide well it doesn’t but it’s that one random piece I’m sure every writer loves to add in. On the other hand you can look at it as that one place everyone who has direction in their lives wants to go.

From the glorious monuments like the Empire State Building and the Statue of liberty, New York City can be described as an empire on its own. New York exerts a significant impact upon commerce, finance, media, art, fashion, research, technology, education, and entertainment. You would think that by the way I am describing the city that never sleeps, I've actually went there but having consumed myself with so much knowledge it has given me the mind-set that one day I will go there.

That’s the great part about being single you don’t have to let anyone tell you, you can’t go here and there. You have the power to choose your destiny and how you get there is your choice. So if New York is a dream like mine, stop dreaming and make it a reality.

Sick in the City

Source: Google images

It’s that feeling when you wake up and you find yourself with a blocked nose, a horrible headache, a sore throat and worse you have to attend work or school. Well this is exactly how I felt this morning when I got up. Being sick can be the worse feeling in the world but it could also be your body telling you to SLOW DOWN and rest.

Often with our busy schedules we sometimes use this as an excuse to avoid having relationships when the opportunity comes knocking on our doors (depending on the guy of course) so we focus on the best thing your careers. However we are choose to focus more when after a bad break up or when we are getting over some who is just not that into us. We tend to bury ourselves in work to keep us distracted with all the worries that fill our head. With this comes stress and then sickness.

What a disaster, solution???? Well when we let things affect us we don’t realise the strain we put on our bodies, sometimes you need that friend to come over and have a cup of tea and do what girls do best, GOSSIP! Believe or not it is actually a great way to get everything of your chest. Stress is one of the highest risks to be the sole cause of being under the weather and sometimes detoxing that horrible negative energy that surrounds us is the best option.  So below is just a couple of thing I like to do when I get sick…

·        Watch a movie (PS preferably with a hot actor in it eg Ryan Gosling or Henry Cavil) ·        Have a bowl of soup (one word amazing) ·        Snuggle in bed (keeps one warm) ·        Put phone on silent ( good way to avoid distractions) ·        Have a cup of tea (Chai is amazing) ·        Plenty of REST!! You Good to go J

LOVE ME, NOT MY RACE...

It is the personality that counts and not the appearance of a person. However the colour of one’s skin can change that perspective, even though the word is not said and people believe that it does not exist, Racism is very much alive.

Society has created different perspectives about interracial relationships which occur in high schools and universities, when one finds themself being attracted to a person of a different race.

With the older generation passing down the customs of dating within the same race the younger generation is forced to accept this, but to most students in universities race does not matter. With interracial relationship’s becoming a common trend defining race would be difficult.If one links this to the genetic offspring a baby born from an interracial relationship couple is likely to avoid genetic diseases arising from homozygous which is common with parents belonging to the same race group. Interracial relationships would allow people to not judge one another.

Therefore youth of today should have a broader mind set because racism will exist for a long time however the youth have the power to create positive concepts.

Love one and not ones race.

Differences and Similarities

Source taken from Google images

The common saying is opposites attract, but is that really true when it comes to interacting with people. The question when one is approached about relationships is what are you looking for in a guy? Often having common goals adds points to whatever score sheet we have in our minds. Can too many differences ruin the person’s interest in that person, well the answer is yes and no, many people have issues with not having things in common with their significant other.

This is the foundation when it comes to a relationship. It goes back to having expectations; he should want to travel or be out going, have direction in life. Girls can be so picky but I mean you are spending your days with this person and who knows maybe the rest of your life. Having “ended” things with this guys, whose reason was that we just are too different it made me think did we even have any similarities. Once you spend more time with a person you begin to realise that wow you might actually never have anything in common or wow you did and it worked out. So it left me wondering does opposites really attract, I mean there is the physically attraction but that is a separate piece on its own and there is there personality clashes

.

Whether we like it or not it makes relationships easier and not difficult when two people have so much in common rather than nothing at all. Speaking from experience I have pushed many guys away because I felt that we just didn’t click and it didn’t matter if he was the sweetest guy in the world, not matter what we just didn’t things in common. It all comes to choice, you make the choice of whether you can cherish the similarities and accept the differences, but remember all these have consequences to it. It all boils to whether we can accept or we are left to walk away and it is normal. We live and learn each day so when single don’t sit and drown you’re sorrows go out and mingle. After all what more fun could you ask for?
