~Dating Etiquette 101~

It really doesn't matter if it's the first date or the 100 hundreth date.  It doesn't matter if it's a group date or just you and the honey...here are some rules that I've come up with in order to help you be alittle more engaging and p.c. in your date life-

Rule number 1- Be punctual
~No one wants to be waiting idle for you.  It's polite to be ready, or be on time for the pick up!  It gives the impression that you don't care if you're late.  It's also thoughtless.  If you know you're running late...call first, and SOON!

Rule number 2- Put the cell phone AWAY! 
~You're on a date and it's extremely rude to all parties involved if you're phone is ringing or buzzing every 5 minutes, if you're answering the phone, leaving every second to answer the phone, texting, checking emails, or playing games on your phone instead of participating in your date.  You just flat out suck!  Of course the only reasonable exclusion would be emergencies; but trust...unless you're President Obama and there is a nuclear bomb about to destroy the world as we know it, I'm sure it can be handled in a timely and polite manner.

Rule number 3- MEN: Be chivalrous, LADY: Let him!
~Have manners and allow a person to have manners and respect for you.  Nothing more attractive than seeing a lady and a gentleman together.

Rule number 4- Look into their eyes
~There's nothing worse than someone that can't look into your eyes when they speak.  It's like you have something to hide or you're really not into the date.  Don't act distracted or bored.

Rule number 5- (my personal pet peeve) No pretention
You're not a used car sales man...You're not selling yourself to the date!  Please don't wear medals, accolades, or references on your chest.  The Great you will indeed shine through, especially if you're pure and real!

*I can only handle 5 today!  More another time*
Happy Courting~

**Random Rant** This Is It!

You must really NEED to be careful the words which part from your lips!!  The 'universe' i.e. God has a way of surrounding and bringing you exactly what you ask for....OR NOT!
I LOATHE liars and deceptive or misleading or manipulating people!  They are such scum of the earth...especially when there is NO detrimental need.  Meaning; your life or the lives of your family are not affected!  I was taught at a young age, "If you lie, you'll steal and if you steal; you'll kill!"  There's such TRUTH there!  Liars have the capability to steal and kill dreams, goals, self-esteem, worth, joy, life.  All the above!  Don't believe me; Satan is the father of lies and deception; and we know what he's capable of!  He took a third of the Angels with him for goodness sake!!
Why lie people?! 
Is it so hard to be honest, upfront and an open book!!!  Who is it going to hurt to be truthful and honest and forthright???
I have come to the conclusion that liars lie.  That's what they do!  That's what they'll always do! And the sad part is; they do it just cuz they want to.  They know the consequences of their actions and behavior yet, they do it anyway.  There is no reason for me to indulge in this rant anymore because it's just the WAYS of this world.  I will just stop "inviting" them into my life by speaking, writing or uttering my faithful phrases as- "I can't stand a liar."  This is it people, it's a done deal!

XOXO,
Khrystian Nichole

And to any liars reading this- Get it together...it's not that serious. REALLY!

Brand Mania

So I'm now guitly of joining this brand mania...where no one really cares who you are, but you still self-import yourselves into peoples life.  I have created a website.  Different than my blog, however one in the same.  It began with my fascination of maintaining my unique or so-I-thought name; Khrystian Nichole. 
When I was younger, I hated my name...Khrystian.  To me when someone called it, it sounded as if it should have been a boys name.  It, to me, at the time didn't sound feminine enough.   Andboy was I girly!  Everyone else's name was Crystal, Crissy, Christy, Christina.  Then came the "K" spellings of those same names. 
I could never find my name as an "example", or in the key chain kiosk.  So, I would feel bad.  But alas, I grew into my name...and loved it!  I don't really remember when it grew on me.  It may have happened around my freshman year of college!  There were just so many people that  a would say my name, and say my name well...that I loved hearing it.  They would give me nicknames to go with my name...and it was fabulous! 
Then I began seeing I wasn't the only K. Nichole (however differently spelled)  It was brought to my attention that there were more. (I know it's not some conspiracy...or maybe) 
Many people think I have a nice name.  Unique.  When I sign up at the bank, when I sign my name or introduce myself.  But now; with the inventions of myspace, facebook, yahoo, twitter, and the like; my name isn't all that unusal or unique!  But it IS! Darn it!  I intend to keep it that way...or at least claim it LMAO!  Okay enough...any who, yes...I have website and I know exactly what I'll do with it!

Robin Hood

"Men in Tights"  -Oh wait...sorry wrong review!  This is supposed to be the review of Russell Crowe's 2010 Robin Hood!  Here it goes-

It was decent.  Once (at the end) I realized it wasn't the story of Robin Hood, as I, and by "I"; I mean my era knows it, but the story before Robin Hood!  How the character came to be the hooded skilled archer theif outlaw that robs the rich to give to the poor.  It was pretty long too.  Or maybe I was just bored.  I never leave movies if I don't have to and I left out twice.  Once to get a drink, just cause I wanted to and the second to actually leave the theater and pick up my car after it was finished being serviced.  But guess what?!  I never missed a beat!  Leaving out didn't cause me to miss any part of the story line...tell you anything?  All in all, go and see it.  There were two of us that entered the movie:  One loved it and never left the seat.  The other...well you know the story by now!

Iron Man 2

I will preface this entry by saying: 

I am utterly and irrevocabally infatuated with Robert Downey, Jr.  As an entertainer, performer, actor, comedian, artist, and philanthropist.  The man has to me; such talent, charisma, wit, charm and undeniable come-back capabilities that it astonishes me!  He has gone from shining brightly as a rising star to the gutters and trenches and back again...many times over, I have to say.  But with each downfall and rising, with each scandal and praise; he always returns to the screen and, like a proud moma; I'm excited to see what he'll do, how he'll play the part.  He always seems to excell, endure and triumph over each monkey that grips his back.  I applaud his work, his skill and his ability to seemingly overcome adversity!

Okay, with all that being said, I will get to Iron Man 2!
I loved it! I was entertained and excited.  I wish I could have worked on the set, just because I know they that had too much fun filiming.  I loved the two villians, I loved Scarlett's (totally not even close to real) stunts and kick-ass fighting skills!  Don Cheadle...the man is great and adds a'lil something-something to every part I've ever seen him play.  Gywneth was endearing; although, I still think they teased you on the trailer and then left "something" off; but you'll see for yourself....whatever!  I liked it.  Maybe I'm just a fan of The Jr. and anything he's in, I just like...but not true.  Well...not all the way true.  LOL!  Judge for yourself...I won't do any spoilers for you...at least I don't think I did! 

Enjoy your night at the movies!
