My weekend + What are 3 things I want to accomplish this week?

 This week is a new week to start fresh:

1. Do my hair. I am doing boho faux locs
2. Clean my apartment like a realllll deep clean
3. Cook or meal prep every day so I am eating a home cooked meal and continue to work out

I do not have much to say today. I had a calm weekend where I literally watch movies all day yesterday and today. I am on my last movie of the day so I will list the movies I watched:

• Grown Ups 2
• Prince of Egypt
• Vertigo 

A very random selection however I will say I am a big fan of Alfred Hitchcock. I love his show and I have watched The Birds, Vertigo, Psycho, and Rear Window. I will try to watch all of his movies if they are on streaming services. Anyways I did not have much to say today. I just wanted to make sure I typed something. I also wanted to discuss.....what I am looking for in my next boyfriend (hopefully husband one day)......  I will only list 10 traits to make sure I am not writing too long. (Also I am nauseous) 

1. Kind 
2. Intellectual 
3. Patient
4. Good conversationalist
5. Friendly
6. Nice smile
7. Handsome :-)
8. Ambitious
9. Witty
10. Interesting (meaning has hobbies, well read or likes to read, board games, word games, video games niche hobbies lol )

I guess I am thinking about this because of a conversation I was having with my friend Dorothy (who I adore by the way, she's the best). She wants a boyfriend and she went out on a nice hiking date with a guy and she sounded liked she had a nice time which I am glad. I was telling her since she really never had a boyfriend what pieces of advice I would give myself if I had to start my relationship journey over:

• LISTEN (not passively listen but actively listen ensuring that you are giving your partner that well deserved attention and space to feel heard)
• Do not expect them to know you straight away (if they do something that triggers you tell them do not let it harbor away and react in a passive aggressive way)
• Create space for intimate moments 

I think those three things are super important for me in my next relationship and I just want to make sure she is not afraid of emotional vulnerability. I guess I can be a little honest here....I think a good start to a friendship for any relationship. I thought I had a friend but I did not I guess. I am a little naive when it comes to people's intentions I guess I thought he was someone who understood me and I wanted to and unfortunately still want to understand him which sucks.  Idk why I am so nervous to speak on this probably because I get so embarrassed because not all acts of kindness equate to someone having an emotional connection or crush. (I try to catch all the typos but forgive me if I do not blog half the time I am writing this without my glasses on and do not zoom in enough to see the words I just typically let it flow out yes typos and all lol). Idk well hopefully I can be friends with someone and then build that romantic connection. I guess that is all I have to say also I am at the end of Vertigo and it is a little ooky spooky lol. Vertigo is considered Alfred Hitchcock's magnum opus.

P.S I would like to read more books by him and by so many other people. I wish I had more time to read leisurely. I wish I had more time to dedicate myself to my passions of reading and creating (whatever that is). Also I wish I a table space to do watercolor.
