Cold as Ice

PanaJones1@gmail.com (Pana) — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 19:11:00 +0000

So I have been thinking, how did some people get so COLD or pretend to be. Life has a funny way of throwing us curve balls, we go thru hurt and pain it is a part of life. What I am trying to figure out is when does this pain influence a change in our behavior and personality ? When people become immune to feeling anything or just gave up giving a f*** . They have no remorse for the pain they cause or subjected to.

Now don't get me wrong I can be overly sensitive sometimes, but it comes a point when some people are plain ole nasty , disrespectful, and cold. time and time again you put your heart on the line whether it be family, friends, and intimate and in most cases continually get shitted on either they are ungrateful , unappreciative or too materialistic to see what you do for them and where your loyalty lies or the fact that maybe you try to compensate in other area " When she need help I'm right over her shoulder, when off track ma is keeping me focused" I know money makes the world go round but I guess I'm old school just because he tricking don't mean he love you . Anyway back to the subject at hand I refuse to be cold even though I have been hurt , heart broken I do not believe in someone paying for another person's mistakes. Also I treat people the way I would like to be treated being a better person. I know first hand it is harder to live your life the RIGHT way than you do whatever and step on whomever to get buy. God always paves a way for me to to go farther, do better and have been blessed with good karma. Are we really a product of our circumstances ? In life are we so blinded by the superficial that we let lose sight of our morals and principles and just think about what we can "Get" out of situations. Everyone wants a ride or die and loyalty but if your "cold" how can you expect something that you aren't or unwilling to give?!!! We should re- examine our "relationships" establish what went wrong move past it or get over it. It is unhealthy to harbor negative energy it blocks our blessings (positive energy). With that being said your perceived deficiencies, anxieties or cravings may be what is excluding you. Remember that you have options. You are a survivor, able to deal with the flaws of your partner, yourself ,family, and the cold shoulder from those who see your values as unusual or suspect. Either may be putting a strain on your love life or lack there of. You can find strength in adversity, so don't be too quick to curse your lot everything happens for a reason. Be willing to face the unknown hardships for the sake of future improvements, growth and acceptance. Soon you will be in a place where you can express yourself fully and let go some of the pain resentment for past hurt. People are attracted to vibrancy let that inner glow shine thru. I know it is good to be detached on some levels but you will shine a lot brighter when your melting not frozen. Maybe some good can come of this without being frozen you wouldn't know how it feels to burn with desire.

What are your thoughts ?

Estella Boutique

Estella Boutique is owned by Tameka Raymond , and sells Men, Women, and Children's clothing. I can not wait to visit this boutique to see how it differs from others in Ga. I love the warm feeling the store has love the choice in furniture, and the fact that customers who spend over $250 will receive a complimentary style session with Tameka herself.

Also 25% of sales go toward the Lost Ones Foundation, which inspires, mentors, and aids troubled young women (a foundation that Tameka has started). So if you are in the Atlanta area or visiting the A soon like myself please check out the store and let me know what you think of it. I will let you know after my visit next month.

Weekend Recap

PanaJones1@gmail.com (Pana) — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 16:05:00 +0000

This weekend I have been a busy little bee (thank god) lol . I worked at a charity event with my friend Jacquelyne Joyah (but I call her Blu but you can't haha) she styled a fashion show and gave away clothes and accessories to the women that participated in the show. Which I thought was a phenomenal thing to do. So Sat I picked her and her staff up from Penn Station and we made our way to NJ to set up for Sunday's charity event. Let me tell you I did a lot of driving this past weekend and I am beat I still haven't gotten any sleep as I am in the process of editing interviews from the charity event since I covered it from my blog. I met interesting people did some networking and have a few things lined up. There are going to be a couple of changes to the blog not as far as content too much but there will be products for sale (coming soon) God willing of course. I know you guys probably noticed the change in layout and ads etc small but MAJOR changes more to come. I will update post entries on a more consistent basis, and topics you will to see on here please let me know. I am working diligently to give you the best content I can, and would like to hear your thoughts.

Many faces of Me

PanaJones1@gmail.com (Pana) — Wed, 16 Jun 2010 14:30:00 +0000

I would like to think I am the type of perosn that is "What I am suppose to be, when I am suppose it" (if ya don't know now ya know lol) . I can/tend to wear many hats. I am VERY sarcastic, so people that Don't know me can think I'm rude. Those that love me think I'm funny (hey I'm not making this up :op). I can be talkative at times , I find that it comes from always being alone and keepingto myself growing up :o/ (but fuck it either love me or leave me alone). My friend Gucci Shoes says that if she didn't know me she wouldn't like me. (in fact before she knew me she used to feel that way ah a stan lol) . LMFAO at the fact women can dislike someone whom they never have never met. Anyway the reason why people may feel that way is because I keep a straight face ---> :oI ....even when I am happy " I am not mad I'm just drawn that way" lol (just like my papi). I tend to only smile with people I know or deal with. I am selfless person, I do too much and almost always NEVER receive half of what I put out. I am so blessed because I think I turned out pretty good giving that I have raised myself for the most part. I can be a bitch when I feel disrespected.

I haven't spoken to you guys in a bit so I wanted you to know more about me the person, you always get my opinion and views about my blog topics but never anything too personal. I want you to know what I think and feel, I want you tell me about what you think and feel. Ok so in the past 7 months I have moved, re-evaluated relationships causing some people to be removed from my life, I do not consider this a bad thing it is just that sometimes you reach another level and some people cannot make that journey with you. If you do not have the same morals and principles then what do we have ? Seriously talking about shopping and men can only get you but so far :o/ . I need and crave substance. the older we get our priorities changes we focus more on family or building a family. I'm a hopeless romantic realistic but I love the word LOVE it is a great and POWERFUL thing. I hope you have enjoyed your experience getting inside my head by reading my blogs. I have decided to step it up a notch. I will continue to write about relationship (friends,family,intimate) but also I would like to discuss other topics concerning some of my readers so there will be more sex , and I will like to incorporate art , fashion, and most importantly parenting because more and more readers are becoming parents or they already are.

With that being said I am a sensitive bitch (yes in both respects) that is Loyal , Honest, and Down to earth !

Ciao Kisses,

Are You That Somebody ?

PanaJones1@gmail.com (Pana) — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 18:17:00 +0000

They say that it is every little girls dream to find Prince Charming , get married and have babies, house, etc..... now for some this might not be true, you are not looking to get married, however for those of us that do this blog is for you.

What our parents fail to tell us is that the older you get the harder it seems to sustain a relationship. Somewhere down the line the base principle has been misplaced. Let me go deeper and thoroughly explain.

When we date in high school it's not really dating who back then could really go on dates ? ( I'm not talking about the fast ass girls that didn't have curfews you mama didn't care about you lol ) Seriously where were you going who was paying because I know that ninja was broke lol. Moving along you got "hooked up" then if he/she was cute then you was with it end of story nothing else matter that is what you based your relationship on. Now in college you determine your boyfriend/girlfriend on looks , then if you had things in common etc "you start to get a little more deep" Now as you are proceeding to exist college preparing yourself to go out in the "real world" ( as if you're living in fucking make believe land like real shit don't happen to you ) you start to plan for the future think about what you would like out a team mate plus you gather everything learned from the past failed relationships and see exactly what you do and don't like.

Let's fast forward to late 20's - 30's now you are looking to settle down (in most cases) you are ready thinking about marriage , babies, what can you/ your partner bring to the table, morals, and principles . All of this becomes imperative because without this criteria being met your relationship doesn't stand a chance. It's like being with a person who doesn't want to get married and you do , you're just fucking yourself because the do not posses the proper "core values" in order to be with you. this will only work if your priorities are in order. If you do not know what you want how would you know what your are looking for? Better yet you might be settling I thinking people should a minimum of 5 qualities that a person should posses.

I'm no expert but I believe that if more people followed a certain criteria then they would find people that are more compatibility with. Be patient do not settle or hope they will change , #weoffthat keep it moving ... You might be blocking your blessing everything I write about are my personal views either from my experiences or the experiences that other share with me. I was blocking mine for a long time putting others needs before my own. Now I can say with no regret that it is great to surround yourself with peoples that cares about your NEEDS just as much as their own. I want someone that will sweep me off my feet we all deserve that. At least I don't have to look (whew) . Try it I know you will thank me.

P.S. I want to go back to being hooked up because sometimes it works out for the best :op

Learn To Pick Your Battles

PanaJones1@gmail.com (Pana) — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 12:23:00 +0000

Do you want to be right......and alone? It's not about being right or wrong all the time. Sometimes you have to let things slide (not important things). Arguing over every little thing is childish (only you know what is important to you). If you know you have to tell him to take out the trash, just remind him. If it bothers you to put the cap back on the toothbrush WOOSAH the just do it. If he is late just suck it up. Unless he is ALWAYS late then you have to reasses what is worth arguing about and take one for the team (don't date late ass mofo's lol). ***Side Note - There is a big difference between keeping quiet and playing the ass*** (which of course men will pick door #2 all day). I'm not saying make significant amount of changes to the point where you lesson or lose your morals and principles. In the case I say make bounce (face it who wants to play by themselves) it wasn't fun as a child (with imagination) I am not a child !! ( I'm a grown ass woman dog in my Cedric the Entertainer voice). Sometimes women can be stubborn, and argue over petty stuff. It happens to the best of us, because the love is so deep emotions take over. I was never like that, but it's always that ONE that brings out your EVIL twin (in my Dr. Evil voice). We are QUEENS and must lead the way for our KINGS.....(more on that later).

Here is a Tip : Consider softening your approach.Reconsidering a criticism or hard-line stance n a matter could improve your relationship or love-life. I'm finally back to my old self (laughing to myself). My swagger is in rare form. I can do some damage (ego) . I have a bright future and apart of growing is being able to control your thoughts,emotions,and appetites. Keep Doing you, don't wait around for your kings approval (he should know what he has, as you should know what you have as well). In this life I take nothing for granted. I am blessed. It could be worse. Let's not get wrapped up in titles, just have fun and live. We only have one life to live (like the soap) you get one shot let's make it count !!! If you have someone special enjoy the time you spend. Soak up all the momentous occasions because in the end that is all you will have left. I woke up and had an epiphany. If you chose to follow what I have written I believe that in an ironic twist, it could be your respect, compassion to defer and pick your battles that breaks him or melts his heart, and get him to make an exception to the rule.

What's your Fantasy ???

PanaJones1@gmail.com (Pana) — Sat, 12 Dec 2009 16:38:00 +0000

Jus Chill

PanaJones1@gmail.com (Pana) — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 17:31:00 +0000

So I was talking to a friend of mine and we were talking about men and women and how some times we tend to take things too serious, and stop going with the flow. I must admit I'm guilty of doing just that. I had some running around to do this weekend I put some time aside to really thinking about what moves I need to make. I also hung out with a friend had a good time. I was talking to them about moving ,career plans etc......at first I was hesitant at the thought of moving but I thought about it I have no children it's about time I get out and explore. I'm beginning to make necessary changes. Sometimes life throws us a curve ball and we have to role with the punches, adjust accordingly, calculate your next move be 2 steps ahead.Right now I'm thinking of a master plan, getting my mind right (while sitting on the couch w/ my sexy panties on lmfao). I move to reach the next level in my life plan. Even though I am still in my 20's. All of this self -realization while wondering can I "Jus Chill" ? I working on certain traits and I haven't noticed that when I made them was a change for the better, god forbid nothing for the worse. Anything worth having is worth fighting for. I'm ready to move past the mundane and grind out. I think I can get back to the certain moral, principles,core values. Everyday encounters (in most cases) detour you from full filling your destiny.

I feel like a butterfly emerging from its chrysalis, I have taken some pretty tough circumstances and used them to grow. Now I am developing into something lovely and fantastic beyond my wildest imaginings. I also feel sexy, vibrant, mature, flirtatious, sensual,provocative...well you get the idea lmao. During times like these, it's good to remember how grateful you are -- not only for the easy things in your life, but for the tough circumstances as well. They've shaped you into someone amazing. Take a moment to honor yourself. My friend Tracey said to me yesterday you can either live life or LIVE life (so true mama). Even with all this self realization I am still confused (yes I can keep it 100) about certain aspects involving relationships (please note that when I speak of relationships it should always be considered general ex, family,friends, intimate unless otherwise noted) Can you just chill without losing yourself, being true to your core values, moral, and principles even though certain ideologies change ? Can you continue being the person you were before the relationship and still be considerate to someone else's feeling ?? Shit too much to think about how can you chill with all that shit on your mind ? I think most of people change when we are in relationships. I would like to think I do not I naturally love to cater and spoil my friends or partner. On the other hand there is nothing wrong with letting your inner child run free in moderation (something I should practice more often). Taking a step back to properly evaluate people in your life you to get to the core of what you want and need out your relationships. Some people fall in love with the idea of being in love. So when in the Jus chill phase I think you shouldn't rush things do not make a commitment if you are not ready for one, If you have to cut ninjaz and bitches off do that before making a commitment to someone else save yourself the headache. Please remember Karma is a bitch and will eat you alive do unto others .......

I have a list of things that I would like to do before I have children and some just before I leave this earth I have already started to implement them. So stay tuned I'm sure things are about to get VERY interesting....

Adios,

My Horoscope

PanaJones1@gmail.com (Pana) — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 17:24:00 +0000

The World card suggests that you may have come a long way, baby, in reaching your romantic goals or letting go of the past. Now you could receive further gifts in your love life. Perhaps some family planning or a change in your relationship that can expand your horizons is in the works. Get ready for creative plans for the future. This may be the real deal. You could finally feel complete -- but it's only the beginning.

Ok Ok this is exactly how I am feeling minus the family planning hahahahaha I am Blessed !!!

**** New blogs will be posted this week I apologize I moved and had numerous things to take care of at once***

Are You Loyal ?

PanaJones1@gmail.com (Pana) — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 18:16:00 +0000

Loy*al*ty –noun, plural -ties. 1. the state or quality of being loyal; faithfulness to commitments or obligations. 2. faithful adherence to a sovereign, government, leader, cause, etc. 3. an example or instance of faithfulness, adherence, or the like: a man with fierce loyalties. The first thing that comes to my mind when I hear loyalty is consistency, allegiance, faithfulness, fealty, affection, and devotion. These are very important traits to have. This is apart of my genetic makeup. As I am maturing and observing my daily surroundings I noticed that loyalty hardly exists from the street dudes to mobsters, from businessmen to the campaign trail loyalty is a rare commodity. In my travels I hear men and woman (mostly men) speak about how they want someone loyal especially in the relationship aspect of their lives. Then my question in my head is are you in turn loyal ? Do you know the true definition not what you have tailored to fit your requirements but the standard across the board meaning. For instance how can you expect some one you treat like shit do be loyal? How can you be upset if they abandon you or play for the next team? Sometimes you have to look at peoples mind set because after all everything is about perception.... let's dig deep I'll give you a scenario : Let's say you are in an 8 yr relationship or 2 year relationship (doesn't matter) . You have a couple that has a lot in common, same morals and principles, get along well (for the most part). On the outside it seems like the are a pretty descent almost perfect (perfect ...that's another blog in it's entirety) couple. But here are the facts. He spends almost zero time at home, cheats and with cheating comes lies, Plus he is commita-phobe, and isn't taking care of home in the tradition sense (that means not spending time or catering to the needs of the relationship he is in). There are some money issues but nothing too dramatic. Now after 8 yrs of being a solider, shorty decides to go AWOL. This is the interesting part not only did all this time he expect loyalty, In her opinion he really didn't show any. Moving right along ........... So let's elaborate: Only expect what you give. I know somethings are easier said than done but people (and in this cases the male) should be realistic. If you are not taking care of home you are lucky she only went AWOL and wasn't disloyal. If you have time to cheat, then you have time to make your relationship work period (if you don't want to make time don't be in one WTF) because if you make a commitment it's like a contract that's your word if you don't want to honor it pay the fucking penalty charge and bounce !! Choosing one over the other is being disloyal. Whether it is a friend, partner, family co-worker whatever person you decided to let into your life that is a trait you should look for and demand. Just because they don't want to deal with your shit anymore doesn't mean they aren't loyal, that just means they no longer want to deal with your shit !!!!! Why should you be loyal to someone who betrayed your trust ? Not only that why continue to be loyal to someone who doesn't try to earn it back or doesn't show any signs of change. When it comes to friendships : Your friends should be the first to top the list especially your BF because she is your ultimate confidant. Even though I mostly talk about relationships here (man/woman) everything I say can be applied across the board (meaning that it apply in all situations friend,family,intimate). Now my personal opinion loyalty is who been there with you through thick and thin, your ride or die even when sometimes you didn't deserve for them to be by your side, defends you when you are wrong ( fuck it I go hard for my ninjaz lol). Even if a better job offer came up they would still help you build from the ground up because they believe in your vision. Stick with you, even if you were broke because they know that that spell will not last forever. Give you their last and MOST importantly will never chose another!! (this type of loyalty rarely exists these days). Please be aware for the impostor that front like they have your best interest at heart while they have ulterior motives, and just want to "use somebody". This happens to the best of us please do not think it can't happen to you, because in the end you will get caught "slippin" and then find out who your real "peoplez" are. And might lose some loyal peoples in the process (on to the next one) These are just some attributes that I think defines loyalty How many people you know that can honestly say that your loyalty is unquestionable ???

Why Buy The Cow , When ........

PanaJones1@gmail.com (Pana) — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 14:57:00 +0000

I read a very interesting article on another website, it was so insightful I decided to share my thoughts on this issue. Growing up I didn't want to learn how to cook, shit I barely wanted to clean my room. Every time it is drilled into young girls head "you have to learn this "what kind of man are you going to have if you don't" or my personal favorite line "you can not get a husband if you do not do this " My response each time is my husband will cook ,clean and wash my clothes (yea right :o/). I still soaked up all the information that my drill Sargent was feeding me. It wasn't until I reached about 18 then I was thankful for all lessons learned. I hate a man with a dirty house. Actually I want a man who is neater than me so I know for sure I won't have to clean up after him lol !!!!! I guess people take advangte and do not appreciate the good things they expect too much , so it makes it easier to explore all options because there are no more morals and principles. Some people pop the question just to shut you up (smh)Anyway in this article this man states that a man will never marry you, if you one already cater to him, and act like you are married for instance :

move in together before marriage "
have sex w/o protection
clean his apartment ,cooking "playing house"
Calling him hubby, him calling you wifey etc
wash his clothes
laying up w/each other for hours at a time
talking about forever but no commitment is in place
Putting things in each others names
Keys to apartment

*When you do these type of marital acts, you are giving a person the opportunity to use you up. They are getting the most out of you already so “why would they marry you?”.

He also stated that if your not married your single!!!!!!!. People do not owe you anything because your dating. You are single until he puts a ring on your finger only then you are in a committed relationship. Doing Martial Acts without being married.

I have to admit I'm guilty of this very same act smfh. I guess times have change I have been bread to do all these things. How do you show you are marriage material ??? I have a lot of questions, but you know what I agree I'm single I'm not married never been , never been close I guess the old saying is true why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free. Very insightful.

Please check him out here his name is Life Skills and he is a relationship blogger.

Thank you Life Skills I needed this post.

Pisces vs Gemini

PanaJones1@gmail.com (Pana) — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 13:34:00 +0000

So I had a run in with a Gemini a couple of years ago, he was decent guy, took me out showed me a good time , wasn't stingy but one day he flipped out for no reason that is when I seen the other side of him. I believe Gemini's male/female are two different people the calm and reserved half and the psycho kill you bitch side (males). the females on the other hand will try to be friend you then destroy you behind your back. I think they always got a lot of drama going on in their lives. This encounter was very brief due to the fact that he broke one of my unbreakable rules. I think people believe your joking when you say I will not tolerate certain things, especially since Gemini people have this sex appeal about then I don't know what that's about lol. So he played himself and then my ex (who was on hiatus at the time) wanted to work on us, it all happened the way it was suppose to. Needless to say Gemini #1 came back full force I mean he brought 3 dozen roses was blowing my phone up like a stalker (btw that is where the term Stalkerdentay came from) seriously like 30 calls in one hour :o/ . I stuck to my principles gave him no more air time, I have no time for men that try to treat me like the average. I guess he was so use to getting his way that he forgot that there is always an exception to the rule, and I wasn't like every other chick he dealt with. Moving right along :

So I met another Gemini recently who is very nice, and thoughtful. I sense the person hiding something I can't put my finger on it hmmmm. Truthful with somethings but not with everything (the devilish grin gives it away). I'm smiling when I type this because I see that this person can potentially become a very good friend. I don't know about confidant though because I don't think that they can be a keeper of secrets. I don't really trust anymore. Since they haven't given me a reason to mistrust them we will just play it by ear. The only things is that they get testy after they slick and I can tell they don't like slick talk in return. I'm watching very closely I hope the don't play the same hand as Gemini #1 cause that will be a shame. I do like the fact that besides confrontation, they are willing to express themselves in different ways. You always know how they feel, think, etc. Most of all the feeling with them is light for some reason which is refreshing. I think they are trying to put certain things in place and serious about what they want out of life which I find commendable :o) ... Not only that being Pisces people can be sensitive, laid back for the most part, and emotional (only with people the care about) Another reason why it's always tug of war ! Pisces people get taken advantage of, but don't get it twisted we are nothing to fuck with and as easy as we swim up stream we will swim down to kick your ass !!! I think it will always be a tug of war. The chemistry is on punto but I get along with anyone that has a good spirit. I'm interested and please believe I'm 2 steps ahead ;oT On the other hand willing to see if this is fact of fiction. Glad I met ya BABE ;op. I was told I will meet a lot of interesting people this year :ox See Me On Top !!!!

Stay tuned......

What's your Fantasy ?? Part II

PanaJones1@gmail.com (Pana) — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 17:30:00 +0000

In part one of this series I stated that I wanted to go some where with Black and Pink sand. That is one my list of things to do before I have children and die lol (list is another blog in itself). Anyway I thought I would share another "fantasy" if you want to call it that or my idea of a perfect date, or I moment in the movie playing in your head. *Side Note I do not believe in perfection is the normal sense of the word* but what is right according to my standards (not something w/o flaws).

Anyway back to what I was saying I love going to the movies, bowling (even though I suck), skating (don"t even get me started on that I'm the worse) , plays, museums, and of course going out to eat . I dislike people that lacks originality when it comes to dating.

My perfect is simple maybe a dinner, followed by a walk in central park preferably in spring early fall months. Another idea is a carriage ride. I prefer not in winter time because it is so cold I want to enjoy it (but with the right man it could be dreamy) and you know my motto there are always exceptions that proves the rule. I find thoughtful date ideas maybe be a little more time consuming the the traditional dinner/movie date....but those fine details is what separate your BF/GF and Husband/Wife. So simple but yet, for some hard. this year I am going to make it happen !!

This is just my what's in my mind.

Live, Life ,Change, and Most Importantly LOVE HARD anything else is uncivilized.

The other day I had a meeting in my Manhattan and my phone was going dead, after that met up with .........(who should forever remain nameless) lol and I said yo my bateria is negativo, they replied mine as well. So we stopped at Duane Reade and purchased it. The product actually works and most of all ladies it can fit right into your purse (Gucci Shoes) just in case your phone ever dies or you are running on E. I give this product a thumbs up. It retails for 20 bucks worth it in my opinion. What Is It:

Energizer® Energi To Go™ Instant Cell Phone Charger is a reusable charging device that can be used with cell phones, some PDAs and Blackberries. It is compact and enables you to keep your phone charged without having to rely on the availability of power outlets. The charger comes with a phone tip connector, the charger itself and two Energizer® e2® Lithium® AA batteries. While other batteries may work - those are the recommended type and brand (of course it is). How Does It Work: The charger uses the power of two AA batteries to recharge your cell phone or PDA. Not only can it be used to fully charge a dead battery but it can be used to top up batteries so that you don't go dead during an important conversation. Not only can this be used just for charging, but while you are talking or using your device. An LED indicates the charge level of your device. Why You Should Use It:

Nothing is worse than being in the middle of a phone call and losing all power. If you lose battery power due to location or you forgot to charge before leaving on your trip; it will help you to not miss calls or connections. This is a very compact, economical, lightweight and easy to use gadget.

Hello Guys,

Sorry it has been a minute since my last update, I've been busy re-evaluating somethings and people in my life. I find that even though most people do it more often than others a thorough clean out of your closet is needed every couple of years as far as people whom you thought was of importance. Anyway I am trying to revamp this site (I have plenty of ideas). I just received a promotion, and I find myself newly single all at the time same time. I thought it would be a bit overwhelming but I think it was time and god was preparing me for this .

Ok On To The Next One................

So with that being said I will cover future events etc, give updates as to what I would like to accomplish. Ellegua is opening my path and with God I can do anything. I will keep hitting you guys with topics i find interesting, and address concerns. Feel free to always drop me a line with any suggestions you may have at : Pana@labellamorenita.com

I just speak on what's "In My Mind "

Ciao ,

Internet marks 40 year anniversary

PanaJones1@gmail.com (Pana) — Thu, 03 Sep 2009 15:20:00 +0000

The Internet just turned 40 years old today. In Fall 1969 two California universities sent/shared the first data between two computers and set the foundation for what was to become the Internet. A 15 foot grey cable that would allow for communication of computers passed the first data. Keep in mind these computers were designed without any idea that they would ever have a need to intercommunicate; hence the term “technocentric”. The machines had no internal mechanism to interconnect with and the Operating Systems they were running were quite different. This necessitated an agnostic platform, and standard approach that would work on any platform (this would evolve into TCP/IP) which is by necessity platform agnostic.

The origin of this project was a result of the Russians successfully testing an atomic bomb. The American Governemt/DARPA realized that in the event of a nuclear war, underground bases would need a method to communicate. Without a phone company that would survive, they designed the concept of using computers that would pass the data over any surviving telephone poles until it reached its destination in this case an underground military base. TCPIP (transmission control protocol/internet protocol), would try every path until it succeeded or failed to meet its intended destination. By the end of the month Stanford and UC Santa Barbara and the University of Utah would all be interconnected in a network sharing their data and the number crunching resources for their astronomy research. The rest of the internet grew connection by connection until we have what we today refer to as the internet. All company networks, network printing, websites, etc. are derivative of this first internetworking.

Happy 40th internet I can't even remember life without you lmao !

The Girls and I will definitely check this spot out very soon !!

So I try this restaurant the other usually I only recommend places that I have been to but I read about and the dishes seem delightful so i decided to posted it anyway. On Tuesday I met up with a friend of mine and we decided (well I decided) we will grab a bite to there. The waiter was very attentive without being over baring.the dishes that he recommended sound good my friend try both dishes (greedy lol). I loved my Paella it was very good and spicy (just the way I like it). Also I asked for a drink (Those who know me have the bbm shock face lol) , the waiter recommended one came back with this milky looking drink that was soooooooo good I ordered another one. My overall experience was a pleasant one. The ambiance was great perfect lighting if you are on a date. The only thing is it isn't very spacious but I think that is what I like about it lol. :oT

Happy Eats !

Dating 101 Tips for Men

Do not think because you paid for a meal, I am entitled to sleep with you. As a matter of fact let me break it down, if a woman wants to sleep with you she will let you know thanks :o/
Do not disrespect by trying to grope (*please see # 1) women. Touchy feely when you first meet is usually frowned upon. (be easy) . Ninja we don't know you take it slow. If you call women bitches etc.. you need not apply. We want real men not little boys trying to act out what they see in videos.
Do be upfront. Women like to have a choice if you have a girl/wifey just say what it is. It prevents future problems trust! Lying is unattractive I do not care how much $$ you have. You shouldn't take away peoples choice. *In the end you wonder why you got Jazmine Sullivan 'd* Ha !
Do take it slow. The first couple of dates is all about getting to know the person do not invite me to your house ninja or invite yourself over, If I want you over I will invite you. If I want to come over I will ask :o/ . Listen intently and you will great a great deal of likes and dislikes. If you need help with date ideas please refer to my archives for a previously written blog on Dating Ideas. (I will also write a follow up very soon).
Do not I repeat do not ask a woman on a date if you do not have enough $$ to pay for it. (that is if the date requires $$)
Do be yourself I do not want to meet your representative, because I will sue you for false representation. j/k lmao.
Please note that chivalry is not dead. Do open doors, for a lady. Pull out her chair at a nice restaurant. Open her car door as well. This blog caters to women not girls who want to be treated as Queens there for treating our men like the Kings they are. That puts you ahead of the class (pun intended) :o)

This is a two part blog more to come. Don't worry fellas I will have dating tips for females as well because we know some women do not act right lol. (but none that read this blog) ;o)

You were my Neo, short days endless nights.

My first in many ways, too smooth your own good

or should I say mine!

It was wrong from the start, something forbidden yet so necessary.

You came at the right time elevated me to

a higher level, but at the same time

did the most damage.

This heart will never heal,broken beyond repair.

Having half of you is like

being a crack

addict only allowed one hit off of the pipe.

You tried your best but,

your demons are too strong.

Your taste for addiction and lust kept us

apart.

The greatest friend I will ever have,

The greatest lover I never had

The girl is now

a woman

The man is still only half in some ways.

She roams the world alone

while

he has the world on his shoulders.

No one will ever understand

her pain or his.

Perfect match but timing is off. Timing will never be

right when You're not neo.

Days are now shorter priorities differ.

She yearns for depth, intensity, passion

and

someone to reciprocate the same consistency.

Wow consistency

No better yet most of all Stability.

She never had any

it's important

He wants his cake and it too,

unfortunately it is no longer an option.

A good man still,

but she isn't good enough.

She gave numerous chances, he accepted w/ no sign of change.

So she pulls out of the race.

Finally at peace with the past, just wanted a future.

She will never love another

ever !

The loyalty will always remain for the one

who got away,

and broke her heart

indefinitely.

The realest shit I ever wrote.

ReSpEcT,

Pana

Safe Date Sex

Revelers take part in the Ceu na Terra, or "Heaven on Earth," pre-carnival parade in Rio de Janeiro, on February 14, 2009. AP Photo/ Ricardo Moraes

Everyone hears about the escapades that go on in Brazil all year round. My father always says that he is going to escape everyday madness and hide out so we couldn't find him. I says back to him we would know where to find you right in Brazil while laughing. He says back while smiling I need a new hiding place ;o) lol. Anyway I always hear stories about Brazil and the exotic women, lifestyle, and parties. anyway back to the blog I decided to write about safe sex because i was reading a article that this year during carnival Brazil will hand out 65 million condoms to promote safe sex. Carnival kicked off Friday (August 7) and the Brazilian Government is trying to aid in keeping attendees well prepared in hopes that will promote safer sex practices. This marks a 20 million increase over what they usually distribute every month. (wow) Brazil is the worlds Leading government buyer of prophylactics, spending around 36 million to purchase 1.2 billion condoms. This effort is to aide The Anti- HIV and AIDS Campaigns in that country. I commend The Brazilian Government for trying aide in the prevention of HIV & AIDS and promoting safe sex.

In my research (through conversation and reading *for statistics please see below) a lot people have misconceptions about having sex with prophylactics. I was talking to my home boy the other day and he said he was seeing a girl that had a boyfriend. They were in the process of becoming intimate when she professed that she doesn't like to use condoms :oO . She doesn't have sex at all with condoms. Needless to say that was a deal breaker according to him. The night ended with that statement (bwah haha). So I asked why ? (out of curiosity) He replied because she has a man, she barley knows me and she doesn't know who I'm dealing with etc etc. Which at the time I thought it was a good answer (that ninja know he hit it j/k) but then as I replayed the conversation in my mind (as I always do) and wondered if she didn't have a man would that have made a difference ? Would it be all good ? (no offense) lol seriously. I was talking to another friend of mine and he expressed that they way he chooses who he sleep with or performs oral sex on is determined by how she carries herself, appearance, etc.. ( I wanted to say are you kidding me?) but who am I to judge (shrugs). I think people had that mentality when they was younger to have that same mentality now that I'm grown I don't think so. I am scared to be quite honest, and I'm not scared of anything. They fact that I could catch a life threaten disease, and it would be nobodies fault but my own I can't do it for myself fuck the people! Looks are deceiving not only that are more and more people determining who they become intimate with based on rapport and appearance ? I know your thinking " I'm in a relationship or no I would never, and last but not least they looked clean. We have all probably made poor decisions in the past especially when we were younger. Unless you both seen each others test results prior to sleep with each other, you are leaving it to chance. Even after initial testing I suggest periodic testing. Men do not go to the doctor they only get checked out when their shit is burning (smh). Shit some never go to the dentist :o/. In my last relationship I was tested before and after (full work up). If you want to be call "grown" (another blog entirely) then you should start making grown decisions regarding your health. Some of us make grown decisions everyday we pay rent/mortgage, pay bills, trade/invest in stocks, manage 401k, getting married, having babies etc and do not take there health seriously. It is time to step up to the plate take control of your life and more importantly your health.

In what ways do you think you could promote safe sex in your neighborhood ?

Hmmm I think I want to do an event surrounding this very topic .
