Dominique's Bday @ Primal Atlanta Nightclub

My Fav Picture!!!  -- it was so... funny cuz she was posing & he jumped in, tongue & everything. Dominique still looks super pretty in it.

Yeah.... Dominique's bday is the day the whole "I had to pee" incident happened. I was on some crazy detox, the Master Cleanse, so I drank lots of liquids. I actually completed it for 10days, then went back to bad eating. Now the Journey continues... but that's a whole other topic, for now, Lets see pics from the birthday :)

1: Getting ready

2: it was cold, so I decided to take a shawl so it could fit into my purse as opposed to carrying a jacket around the club  --- cuz I'M SOOO SMART! -- but it was kinda chunky so I ended up putting it in coat check!

ha ha damn flash & light always messes with my skin color >_<, got a chick looking  lightskin

3. The Birthday Girl

4. The Girls

5. Drinks!




6. HA HA this was soo fucking Hilarious. There was a girl there with Dominiques hair cut! & similar outfit! & they kept dancing similar, & had ended up doing this! ---> it was like a freakin dance competition at the club, Ive never laughed so hard, then they made up!


I'm not sure who the girl on the bar table was competing with.

7. So much crazy shit happened that night, some random guy couldn't pick between me & my cousin, he said he liked his girls 6feet and above, so we kept arguing that the other was taller, cuz none of us wanted him.... & trying to squat to look shorter.  My other cousin fell asleep in the club & I took goofy pics--she'll kill me if i put it on my blog, so I edited it out, but it's on facebook. Some guy was  singing... Have a baby by me... be a thousandnier!! (its meant to be millionaire, but i guess he was broke)
 


still wished I talked to that sexy guy, but man he was like 5'6 and I was prob 6feet in my heels, not a good look :( but damn he was sexy! I had such a blast,with ma girl!

Note cuz the ATL scene is stuck in the 50's:
-it's a black crowd on Fridays, about $20-30, but you can get on the guest list for free before 11 by emailing Plush Blue (the promoters) - its pretty big, and has a lot of rooms

-it's a mostly Asian crowd/ few whites/ fewer blacks on Saturdays - about $10- tons of fun, a bit more techno in the main room, but still reggae in the reggae room.

-this is what it's currently like, promoters tend to move locations almost every few months (shrugs)

How to Find all your Black Friday Deals in one location

Don't miss any Black Friday deals. the internet is you're friend. (though it might tempt you to spend more than you intended)

My brother just showed me this site: http://www.black-friday.net

I didn't know such existed! I checked the net & there's other websites like it. It's pretty cool. It has a list of Various websites like Amazon, Best Buy, you know what, and their black Friday ads. I'll just show u a pic of a few Shops & categories :) (whoops! it's green 'cause I highlighted it)

for internationals: What is Black Friday?

Answer: The day after Thanksgiving Holiday (always a Thursday) which is this week. Thanksgiving is on Thursday, black Friday the day after. Since most stores are closed on Thursday, they have a wicked marketing campaign called Black Friday & some stores open as early as 4am or 6am, pandemonium strikes, people camp out, the stores make great sales, people make great deals, everyone is happy. everyone shops, shops for xmas, shop for fun, shops to be broke, shop to save the economy, shop. (I've never bought anything on Black Friday though, but thanks to the net I might this year)

hmm if ure not satisfied with my plain explanation, hit up wikipedia :)

Now for goodies I want / found/ care about:

The Big Bang Theory  - currently the best show on earth, wished I watched more of it. for all geeky humor. (shamefully I watch gossip girl, and decided a looong time ago that I'd buy all seasons of The Big Bang Theory) (link)

Digital Camera
Nneka commented this weekend on how she wanted my camera but I found this Nikon Coolpix S620 12.2Mega pixel camera for $a149.99!! way better deal than my 10MP camera (link)

lol yeah there are other examples apart from Amazon :)

Alternate: Canon PowerShot A1100 IS, also 12.1 Mega Pixel - Office Max

Laptops/ Desktops:
My sister: Laptops at Walmart for about under $300 bucks (link)  (I'm not an hp fan thoughppy laptop from them, but at this price it's pretty cool, and there's other brands)

have fun with it search! some might be deals that will always be there, and some are deals that are only for Black Friday. happy hunting shopping (^_^)

& Are you getting ready for Thanksgiving?, and PLS PLS PLS don't deep fry your turkey, 'cause you might end up starting a fire!

lol pic of my greedy ass last year... Yummy!!! (the good old days when I always "got my nails did", goodbye acrylic)

And shawty we all the way turned up - Birthday Weekend

I made a video blog!! it's my first time making or editing a video. So you can add me if you have a youtube :) http://www.youtube.com/user/LoveBombchell

Dont be Confused:
Friday: Dominique - tthe "I have to pee" incident occured
Saturday: I went to Ashleigh's bday - the night I made the video, so added pics from Ashleigh's day




weird angle! and kept battling with my shirt the whole night ha ha, but next video I'll try to say OMG less! Promise, Or I'll take a shot of alcohol for every time I say it



In case of Questions )
My Hair: The beginning of the video I'm getting ready: used about 4 soft twist rollers ($5.99) in my hair overnight, no product, just air, and rolled it, put it in a bonet/scarf. Then right before I went out I used a curling iron for the front, brushed it & and used flexible hold spray on it.

Face: I noticed some past question asking what I used on my face in the Mr Nov. post, I have bad skin ick, so I try to cover a bunch. I used MAC Studio Finish Concealer in NC50, &  Zuri Powder in Golden Ivory (costs about $4.99)

Song: All The Way Turnt Up - Travis Porter Ft. Roscoe Dash and YT

From Couch to 5k: Let's get this party started!!!

Forget about New Year's Resolutions, while wait for January 1st 2010 to get in shape!?? let's get this party started now!!!
 
From Couch to 5k is a program that takes total beginners and couch potatoes to 5k runners (aka 3.1 miles)

I admit I can't run! at all!
now if you're like me, this is great news. I'm a beast on the elliptical machine but put me on a treadmill and I can barely run 1 mile, well to be honest I might pass out after 1 minute, so I walk a lot, then run tiny and quit. it's not fun so I dont even bother getting on it.

How I heard about the program
After I gained 8lbs I freaked out & started using my gym membership (always had one but I hardly went). So now Ive been exercising for about 1-2month. lol wish I could tell you I lost the weight, more like I lost 4lbs, then gained about 6lbs back with all the cake, pizza and junk food I eat.

The lady who has lost almost 100lbs in 1 year
well one day after my workout, I decided to use the sauna (1st time ever ) and I met a lady who looked great in her swimwear (as I covered up my flab in my bikini ::sigh::), she was probably in her 30's or 40's and looked like she'd never missed a workout since her teens. Boy was I wrong. she's about 5'8 and used to weigh  230lb+ last summer (2008)!! and then she started working out and this year (2009) dropped to 168lbs then got a personal trainer and now (November 2009) she weighs 135 lbs!!! she's lost almost 100lbs in 1 year!

So I told her how I couldn't run & It's so sad, and gosh how I downed a bottle of whipped cream & cake, and she told me "It's okay" last week she downed a whole container of peanut butter <-yeah that made me believe her story, if you battle food, weight etc you understand.

she's currently practicing for a triathlon (swimming, biking, and running) and she's doing 1/2 an Ironman which consists of 1.2 mile Swim, 56mile Bike and 13.1 mile Run I know psycho!!!! oh for internationals that's 1,930 meter Swim, 90km Bike, and a 21k Run.

I was pretty impressed and I thought that could never be me, and she remined me she was once like me and couldn't run, and that she got started with some scientifically proven program, or study that works, and that it was free and easy to use.




How she got started running
she said the program was pretty easy to follow, that you'd run for about 30 seconds then walk about 45 seconds. sounds easy right!! even I could do that. but that you have to follow the program, and sometimes you feel like you are holding yourself back, and you want to run more, but you need to not be a show off and follow the program.

Then as time goes by, it increases how much you run and walk, and before you know it, in about 2 and a half months we could all be running our 5k race!!!!

This got me really excited!! and I have decided to start the program next week, I hope you would want to do it with me, It should be fun!! and we can keep track of our progress together. On Friday I will post the program here on my blog, the website, facebook groups, even a free itunes podcast that can walk you through, so we can all start the program next week.

so common y'all lets go from couch potatoes 

to sexy!! 

let's do this!!!!!!
