Definitely not I.<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size:130%;\"><\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size:130%;\">2day, I went to see Waist Deep featuring Tyrese Gibson and Megan Good.  Before watching the movie, I was sure it was just some gangsta kinda movie filled with drugs and violence, but 2 my surprise, it was filled with drugs, violence&#8230;.and fun!  Yeap, I actually turned out to like the movie.  Twas really nice.<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size:130%;\"><\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size:130%;\">I have officially found and fallen in love&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;. with the engagement ring of my dreams!  I saw it in a wedding catalogue from Sola.  I ripped the page out (without her knowledge, of course.  She&#8217;ll kill me if she finds out&#8230;especially since the catalogue isn&#8217;t hers).  Woah!  I have never seen a ring that beautiful.  I could not stop lookin @ it.  I mean, I was blushing all colors this evening.  I was gonna paste the ring on my wall sef, but I don&#8217;t want anyone 2 see it.  It&#8217;s gonna be a secret&#8230;until that special someone is ready 2 propose, then I&#8217;ll show him the ring.  Sorry, but I do not believe in lettin a man pick my wedding\/engagement ring all by himself, and I don&#8217;t wanna go with him either cause it&#8217;s unromantic.<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size:130%;\"><\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size:130%;\">*looking at and admiring the ring again*  I really feel like snatching it off the finger of the woman advertising it.  Dayum!  This is too good.  Forget almost everything I said about my ring; I didn&#8217;t know what I was talking about.  Now, I do.  Woah!  This is <strong>BEAUTIFUL!!!!<\/strong>  It doesn&#8217;t get more beautiful than this&#8230;..chei!  I&#8217;m telling you I can&#8217;t get enuff&#8230;&#8230;&#8230; woooosaahhhh<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size:130%;\"><\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size:130%;\">By the way, I&#8217;ve gone loko for dolo with this whole wedding stuff.  All I did today was get websites for wedding sites (gowns, invitations, rings, shoes, keepsakes, etc).  Nna nawa oh!  Odikwa very serious for real.<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size:130%;\"><\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size:130%;\">I&#8217;ve gone from planning Sola&#8217;s wedding to planning mine (even though I am not even engaged o!)<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size:130%;\"><\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size:130%;\"><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Howz every1 doing?
