Have you ever had those stories over coffee with your family, friends, coworkers, future employers, loved ones?  Did you ever feel as if you got to know them a lot better?  Did you feel as if you learned from them? How about yourself? Did you learn something new about yourself? Did the conversation continuously flow throughout? Did you forget about time? These and more are different questions that might go through your head after the conversation ended.  Well, for me, these were a few of many questions that was going through my head after I came home from hanging out and talking stories over Starbucks Coffee.

Before I even start my story, I would like to say thank you to my friend/coworker Kyle Medina for being such a gentleman throughout our shift together today.  He showed me that there are men/friends out there that you can have a few laughs with and bond with.  I just want to say, thank you Kyle Medina for taking the time make my night, along with Amiel and our diverse language we learned from work :-P

In the past, my coffee talk with my peers have always been about life and playing catch up with our everyday lives.  Lately we have become so busy with work, school, and other priorities that we forget about just sitting down and enjoying one another's company and just laugh as loud and hard as you can.  I agree with the saying "Laughter is the best medicine" because even though today was such a long day for the majority of us, we took the time to just sit down and laugh and laugh and laugh our asses off.  We (Amiel, Kyle, and I) talked about our job, our life, history, and just crack jokes throughout the random conversations we had tonight.

So I would like to say, thank you guys for taking the time to make me laugh even though I wasn't feeling well today and I am looking forward to creating this bond with you guys, making it stronger and closer. Again, thank you.

So my dear readers, take some time out of your busy days and just put the phone down and catch up with each other's lives.  It could be a friend, your lover, your parents, or even your children.  You may just create a closer bond with the other person.

Thanks for reading again guys.

Introduction:)

I do a lot of thinking when I am detached from electronics, media, TV, and all the other materialistic things in life:)

Hey guys, so this is my first and official blog on this eblog.  It's crazy because I've never expected myself to be placing  a personal touch of "Kristeme" into a blog site like this, but hey I have one now and I will continue to blog on this website for as long as I can and as much as I can.

First and foremost, the main purpose of this blogsite is to give you a little (or a lot!) about me.  I can explain myself so much more through words than just what you see.  Although they have that saying, "What you see is what you get," I feel as if people are always wearing a mask in their everyday lives to hide what it is that their truly feeling because they don't want to be perceived as "drama queen, desperate, sad," etc.  Unless you dig deeper than the surface, all you will ever get is the character of the mask that these people show off to others.  Also, another reason why I am doing this is to log down my daily activities during my trip to India that'll start from June 4-July 5.  I believe that I will be reflecting a lot on my experiences there and it would be great to put it somewhere where it is easily viewed by friends and families all over the world, professors, and also sponsors.  Pretty much, this blog site is a daily dash of Kristeme (<-me).

The theme for this blogsite, or at least this blog, is titled A Woman's Worth.  The reason for this is that so many times women are always perceived and valued less than what they truly are.  Giving this title and expressing myself in many ways will show many different aspects of valuing a woman, not just by her looks and how sexy she may be.

Anyways, reflecting on this theme, so many times a woman falls for a guy that she thinks is so great and is her perfect match, blah blah blah.  Some women don't see or understand that they deserve better than how much the man she's with is treating her.

Women:  I'm sure everyone is afraid of losing someone they have or growing old alone, but ask yourself:  Is the person you're with treating you the way you SHOULD be treated?  All I wanna say is that he may give you the fancy things that he gives you and take you out to expensive dinners, but do you connect with this person intimately?  Do you connect with this person emotionally, physically, and mentally?  Or is he just with you for all the great things that you can do for him - showing you off to his friends, being their personal cook, doing their laundry, etc.  Think about these things my fellow women.  A woman's worth needs to be identified by the woman themselves.  They NEED TO KNOW what they're WORTH and make sure they find a partner that does just that.  LADIES REMEMBER, A MAN DOES NOT MAKE YOU WORTHY OR PUTS A VALUE ON YOUR WORTHINESS.  PLEASE DO THAT FOR YOURSELF BECAUSE YOU ALL KNOW YOU DESERVE JUST THE BEST:)

Have a great evening everyone!

XOXO
