"Vinh-Isms" The Gift that Keeps on Giving... Vol 1 Issue 1

Merry Christmahanakwanzika!!!

Thank You Kevin- Love It!!! Can't wait to apply what I read!
I have decided to write today since my plan is to be in bed until I gotta get up and head out to the Warriors game... Woohoo (I'm Yawning as I say this) No worries I do love xmas - Our festivities occcur on Christmas Eve -

And I know it's not stuff your face day but I feel this is also another day to give thanks for all of life's blessings...

And before my blog is at the risk of being labeled the "I Love Vinh" blog - I really want to, first, thank God for everyone and everything that I have in my life... I have a roof over my head, food in my belly (plenty plenty of food), people that love me for being me, and that would be enough...

And God still continues to bless me with nights like the one I shared with both of my families last night... Family Ngo and Family Luna-Paredes :-) I had so much goooood foood! And I laughed and I cried (Had an anxiety attack before heading out but I managed it-ish - - - I had to re-do my makeup but no biggie - - - I can laugh it off now and that's all that matters)

Ok - so now... what I have been accumulating in the last few weeks, "The sh-stuff my future hubby says..." (This will be a continuing blog - to be continued, if you will, because +Victor Ngo  is the gift that just continues giving) The best part of being with my Babo is that We laugh! I am happy to have found someone that makes me laugh everyday that I am with him! We love each other so much that we can laugh AT and WITH one another!


So without further ado, here it is, in no particular order:
(Most of these, outta context, will not make sense so I will do my best to provide you with a backstory)
(BTDub: If y'all have any "Vinh-Isms" to share please send 'em my way)


  • Backstory: At dinner reflecting on how long we've been together (6 1/2 years) and how much we have changed and Vinh says, with an exasperated expression, 
    •  "After 6 years this is what we look like...agh... imagine 6 more years... whoa..."
  •  Backstory: Watching Hunger Games: Catching Fire it became more of a comdey because I couldn't stop laughing when Vinh whispered...
    • "He should go see a dentist about that gingivitis..."  In reference to President Snow's blood in his wine glass...
    • "Why is everyone saying Peter's name in a British accent???" In reference to Peeta (LMAO)
    • BTW: If you couldn't tell, he hasn't read the books
  •  Backstory: Discussing our favorite Power Rangers and I immediately go into the Power Ranger Zord Calling song (Go-go Power Rangers) and I tell him I always got stuck playing the Yellow ranger because his Girlfriend +irlanea Luna always got to be the Pink ranger  and he says without an ounce of irony...
    • "I know, same here, damn the powers that be... My sister always got to be the Pink ranger too" and the he says "Well it's our turn, "Pterodactyl Firebird Thunderzord Power"
  • Backstory: While lying in bed and cuddling-wuddling I say to him "Babe you're shivering- I can turn on the heater...?" He says...
    • "You didn't know baby, that's twerkin in bed..."
  • Backstory: Discussing that I have always fantasized about traveling on my own and so I ask him where would you want to go on your own....
    • "The place where I'd want to go by myself is...[midsentence stops and says] umm nah...I'm too scared to travel by myself"
  • Backstory: Discussing Santa's travel in one night and who decided his fashion threads...
    • "Someone needs to talk to his personal stylist because that poor guy can get a heat stroke in that suit when he travels to Central America"
  • Backstory: I get really irritated and tell him  he never agrees with me and he says...
    • "What do you mean? I agree with you all the time..." I give him my wtf look and he says... " I agree when you say that I'm handsome, good looking and well dressed"
  • Backstory: I like seeing how far I can jump (Sidenote: I have a fantasy to jump from one rooftop to another- I dunno know why- I just really want to) So sometimes I'll ask him "you think I can jump from this end to the other... " In this particular instance I talked myself out of it and he said go for it! So I said "You just wanna see me fall AND DIE" he says...
    • "No, of course not... [I think aww] and he says "I just wanna see you fall..."
  • Backstory: I love to burp and he loves to pick his nose (We know how to class up any place) He hates that I can burp and talk simultaneously - so he says "How is that ok? But I can't pick my nose" I respond... "it's ok because I am multi-tasking" And he says, so matter of factly...
    • I can pick my nose and talk at the same time too, see..." As he proceeds to show me that he can... As if I doubted his skills...
  • Backstory:  This one is an oldie but a gooodie - This was at dinner about to use a coupon...he says...
    • "Uh... I don't wanna come off as being cheap... [takes a look at me] Oh, who am I kidding I am cheap..."
  • Backstory: At my cousins 15th Birthday as we're about to hit the dance floor to one of my mom's favorite songs, my nephew says "if your mom were here we'd be dancing cause we always dance this song together" and Vinh looks at me and says...
    • "I know! I miss your twerkin' with your mom..."
And that ladies and gents is that man I am going to marry and I wouldn't have it any other way!

PS. Look at what Google+ does to you pics! It's so cool - It 'awesomes' them out!It twinkles and it makes it snow!

Fatshion 101: Return of National Polka Dot Day

Happy New Year's Y'all! I am happy to be back! I am happy that it's the beginning of the year when the days feel refreshed and reinvigorated. I am not so much of the "new year, new me" attitude BUT a new year does represent a much more glacier pace of life for me. I kinda fell off the face of the Earth or at least my blog since September 2018... October, our birthday month was superbusy, November at work is an insane time and December is for the holidays sooooooo by the end of the year - I am just waiting with bated breath for new years! Aaaaaaaand January is also home to one of my favoritest days of the year! National Polka Dot Day! In honor of the the Polka Dot Queen herself, Minnie Mouse! If it has dots! I want it! I got it! ;-) And dude!!! I celebrated in what I can only describe as pants sent from heaven! They are from Zara and I bought them ON SALE, maybe six months ago and they come in XXL! I fell in love with them the minute I put them on SO ...

EDC 2016: Modesty, nudity and feminism

Sleeping Beauty and Maleficent Give it to me to go to Vegas and come back more of an empowered feminist than ever! Damn right! First of all... (clap, clap) Let's get something straight! (clap-clap)) My anxiety/insecurity prior to this Vegas Wedding slash EDC thing had NOTHING to do with my body!!! (CLAP) I struggle with finding nudity an empowering source! And not because I'm fat but because I've always been a believer in less is more - in where, the less skin I show, the more enticing and the more empowered I feel. Yeah! Ladies and gents! It's possible! And an argument can be made of the same saying; Less is more - The less clothing you wear the more enticing and empowered you can feel! And I say "I struggle" with 'empowering nudity' because we are bombarded with nudity everywhere we look - We are meant to be made to believe that we should all be comfortable with nudity - well I hate to break it to y'all but - nah! I've written ...

Fatshion 101: Learning to Live with Intent and Balance

Note: I started writing this blog in March while on our way Home to the Happiest Place on Earth ---days before resigning from my job of six years... I’ve always enjoyed my time sitting at a desk looking out a window… Which is probably why as I sit thousands of feet above the sky I am inspired to pull out my laptop (That I’ve packed to finish work emails – on my day off)  but  as I type those words- I’ve chosen to f*ck that sh*t – I am going to use my laptop to blog! I am a little  conflicted on where to start –  I’ve had these thoughts, these words, this blog on my mind for a long time… (Clears throat: it has been well over a year since my last blogpost) I haven’t written for fun in ages and I know myself well enough to know that I shouldn’t have taken such a long break from journaling/blogging (Friendly FYI – I maintain a handwritten journal in addition to my blog) But even before the summer 2019 I stopped all forms of journaling completely – I insta-s...
