Facebook is always changing, and it seems that most users dislike the changes. First, it was by choice to upgrade to the new profile. Then, if you didn't choose the new profile you were automatically upgraded. Now, most recently the way users view pictures is different, and it is just annoying to me! Please Facebook, just keep things one way and I promise all your users will be happy.
The most horrible thing on Facebook is the fact that users can check into their current location. People, this is not a very smart idea. There are stalkers out there who can just view where you are online, find you, and attack you! This whole social network thing is going way too far...

TAKE IT OFF
Makeup is something that most of us wear, some more than others. I personally feel that makeup should be worn to only enhance your natural beauty. I find it so unattractive when females cake makeup on their faces. Believe it or not ladies, most men find it more attractive as well when you are more on the natural side.
What most of us ladies, and some men, seem to forget is that our skin is our largest organ. This is the organ that I will argue many of us abuse the most. Being that our skin is an organ we must take care of it. A common way we abuse our skin is by sleeping in makeup. Some people forget that they have it on, or are so tired that they do not remove it. BIG MISTAKE!!! Our skin is filled with pores that need to breathe, and at night when we are resting our skin replenishes itself.
If you find yourself sleeping in makeup there is a very easy solution. All you need to do is purchase makeup remover wipes and keep them close to your bed. Or an even cheaper fix is baby wipes. These inexpensive wipes are gentle and get the job done just as well. If you do not want to be using anti-wrinkle
fixes too early, take care of your skin and stop sleeping in makeup! This Discovery Health article further details the negative effects of sleeping in makeup: http://health.howstuffworks.com/skin-care/cleansing/tips/sleep-with-makeup-on.htm.

Single and ready to MINGLE!!!
For so many people it is inevitable to be single on Valentines Day. My advice to all the single ladies is to embrace the day, and own it as your own. If you are feeling lonely and down find another single lady, and make it a night on the town. Believe me, there are many couples that are very unhappy. Yes they are in a relationship on Valentines Day but true happiness does not exist in their lives. So have fun live it up and be happy in whatever state you are in! Cosmo has some great tips for all the single ladies in this article: http://www.cosmopolitan.com/advice/entertaining-ideas/single-girl-valentine-day.
Give back now!
Every stable adult who is educated and doing OK for themselves in life, should definitely consider being a mentor. Mentoring is a great way to volunteer and give back to your community. Mentoring is one form of volunteering that is an investment in our future and really makes a difference in the lives of our youth.
I especially encourage college student to mentor because in most cases college students need volunteer hours, and this shows young people how great being a college student is. I think that if more college students volunteered more people would attend college, thus reducing the high school drop out rate. Mentoring is something that you can do on your own time that is very rewarding! It is very easy to get involved, check out these sites for more info: www.bbbsbroward.org/ and www.bgcpbc.org/.

Naturally yours
Going natural is a trend that many African American women are following. Many black women are saying no to "creamy crack", also known as relaxers and going back to their natural hair. The standard of beauty in our society tells us that straight hair is whats beautiful. But all over the United States black women are deciding to say no to this standard and rock what is naturally theirs.
I feel that this is a beautiful trend that has begun. I love to see so many black women being set free by cutting the relaxer out of their hair, and wearing beautiful styles with what is naturally theirs. Overtime this may be the new standard of beauty for black women. Natural hair allows us to be comfortable with they way the God created us. The standards of beauty set in our country are not always easily attainable for black women, who have for years gone through great measures to wear their hair straight.With so many black women wearing their hair natural this could mean a new standard of beauty for black women as well as lots of money saved. The black hair industry is worth billions of dollars, with so many women spending thousands of dollars annually to keep their hair straight. Save time, energy, and money and go natural!

Your body is a temple
In order to be the best you, you must treat your body well. Plain and simple you must treat your body with respect. Your body should be replenished daily with rest and water. You need seven to eight hours of sleep nightly and you should be drinking eight glasses of water daily. Treat your body right and you will see the results. So many women expect result but they aren’t doing what they need to do to obtain those results. Would you drive your car with no oil or water? No, because it would fail on you. So give the same respect to your body. Treat your body right and you will notice smoother more radiant skin as well as less sick days. Give your body what it needs. Rest and water! Your body is a temple and you should always be treating it as such.
