"And The Ocsar Goes To........"

I have had a conversation with myself and have decided to not reflect on some the things that have ripped my head apart but to dwell on the positive aspects of recent events.

The Oscars....


I don't watch videos and award shows. It doesn't excite me at all. People just say that I'm not normal, but I already know that. This time was different. Jaime Foxx and Don Cheadle up for best male actor. This last happened when Denzel Washington and Will Smith was up for this in I believe in 2002 or 2001 I think. Both of the movies were very,very good. I feel that Don Cheadle was the ONLY person who could have done that role, and same for Foxx. Everyone was rooting for Foxx. My friends were into seeing Halle Berry and Beyonce and their so-called "hour glass" figures. They were both beautiful but this wasn't their night. It was Foxx's night. With his daughter by his side and his grandmother lookin from above, Foxx's moment came at the end of the show, but we all knew that it was hear. From "In Living Color" to "Booty Call" to singing "Infatuation" to this. Congratulations once again to Foxx.


Bartending Update...


It was very hard for me to focus to study for my bartending class but I went to take it anyway. I got there and I had to somehow put everything behind me and get through this test. In the first week, I got some practice in since I wasn't first up and I had time. Last night, I didn't practice before my test. People were talkin to me but I wasn't listening, but for some reason they kept talking. Then it was my turn. Only three out of the ten people from last week was there. The two girls went together which left me solo. This was it. 10 drinks in 10 minutes. Just like last time I raised my arms above my head as I was ready to take this test. It was GO time!!! All of a sudden something happened. Before my first drink, I started to feel really good. I looked at the drinks that I had to make and it was so on. I started on it. I was so relaxed and comfortable. I didn't hesitate like last week. I felt good. I was moving very well. I was conversating with the instuctor while I was making the drinks. This was good. Very Good! He knew that I was feeling good. After the test was over, I took a deep breath and relaxed. I finished with a 86. I missed the Comfortable Martini. I was making the Southern Comfort Manhattan. I got the two mixed up. Boo!! I overpoured on a couple of shots. (My customers will love THAT about me! LOL!!!) I made the Cosmopolitan, 7 & 7, Hurricane, Velvet Hammer, Grand Marnier, Apple Martini, Three Wise Men, and a few more. This test was harder than last week but I felt good. After that performance I then felt like getting some practice in, LOL! I am looking forward going out on a big bang!
