Something Real.....

I was just listening to one of my favorite R&B singers Teedra Moses and instantly immersed myself into her sweet melodies and dynamic vocals when it comes to finding, losing, and discovering love  again and again.

I'm not the type to bounce from bed to bed or feel the need to be in relationship to validate myself so I'm not considered "alone" or single.... Often Im asked "why aren't you married" or "when are you going to have children" and I laugh to myself as I continue to discover my purpose here on Earth. So many times the biggest mistakes are our own and we become angry as if we stubbed our toe on the edge of a door and become upset as if the door was in the way lol.

I'm no literary poet or romance novelist but when it comes to writing my own story it will be right and perfect for me and the person I hope to turn those pages with forever. I believe in love as we all do but I'm willing to wait for Something Real....

All I'm saying is try me....I'm here for you

Try something real this time..

All I'm saying is that I'm ready for love....❤️

Loving The Skin I'm In.....

Wow It's been  2 years since I last blogged on a personal level. So much has happened with little regard to the vehicle that made me want to blog in the first place. Anyway in the past several years since starting bizzyblanco.com I've desired to write a book, start a podcast, market a t-shirt line, to a web show, radio show, blog from a major award show or event, lose weight, and possibly find love.

While blogging live from the BET Awards seemed far fetched I did manage to however start a podcast and meet some really cool people in reality tv.  Although I was pleased to find success in blogging, my personal life was in complete shambles. If anyone knows losing weight is no easy task, something I've struggled with since my early teens. While I eventually learned to live with it, I've managed to have success here in there with losing the extra pounds. Then the question of love comes up.....

It's no secret I'm a helpless romantic yearning for the opportunity to find my perfect soul-mate.... and not perfect in the true definition form but someone who compliments me mind, body, and soul. Searching for love is a bit different than when my parents came along because people actually dated and courted one another... that script flipped once my generation came along and now as we stand in the midst of the social media era, relationships and getting to know people is all over the place with every piece of the union splattered for the entire world to see.

Nonetheless I hold my head up high! Learning to accept the life curves thrown at me, making lemonade out of the lemons, and bypassing those peanut butter Oreos on the cookie aisle. Encouraging myself to quit procrastinating, furthering my brand, and expanding my geographical territories. I've learned love won't come easy, weight just doesn't vanish, and easy money won't last.

While it all seems over whelming as I get older I'm learning to love the skin I'm in.....

Stay Off My Timeline....

Those were the words Nene Leakes uttered during part 1 of The Housewives Of Atlanta Reunion.....

I totally agreed with her statement and it made me evaluate my own following on both Facebook and Twitter. Point blank if you are following someone who doesn't agree with your own thoughts, opinions, etc... 'Unfriend' or 'Unfollow'....

When I kept getting those annoying party and club invites on Facebook instead of going mad I instantly deleted them from my social network. It's that simple..... Also I use Twitter to vent about my problems and frustrations as most people do. I find Facebook to be a breeding ground for drama so I save all my profane language and occasional outburst for Twitter. Now regardless how I may be feeling in no way shape or form do I use my rants to start beef or degrade another human being. I love everyone.

Simply put if you don't like what I have to say or if it's offense to you stay off my TIMELINE? It's just that easy.

I have far more important things to worry about then killing the reputation of a human being. I'm not perfect nor do I claim to be. I'm just trying to grab a larger piece of the pie like everyone else.. Comprende...

thanks..... talk to you soon

The World According To Bizzy and Other Irrelevant BS...

So 1st things 1st....

My entertainment/pop culture blog turns 1 year old this month (The 25th to be exact) and while I wanted to throw a big shin dig I'm opting out for a more low key private dinner with close friends and family. Even though Bizzy Blanco is a simple media form where I post pictures and news surrounding all things interesting and exciting in the world it's my message that get's conveyed throughout each and every post. Sometimes funny and at other times informative, I try to deliver the best of both worlds in every aspect.

So I'm Thinking About Going Vegan........

Well Just For A Week lol..

I was talking with one of my home boys in one of our healthy lifestyle conversations when he proposed the idea to me. I always heard the benefits of not eating red meat and the gifts of cleansing your system not to mention to lose some extra pounds. With me freshly entering my 30's the need for healthy living is as important now than ever. Like most black folks we share the complex of dealing with high blood pressure and diabetes, two diseases that more often than not can lead to damaging health concerns.

Saying Goodbye To My Grandfather.....

It's not easy losing someone you love and admire. My grandfather lived a great life and will be greatly. He was the friend of many and never had a evil bone in his body. This has really hit our family hard and I know it won't be easy going forward. As I look to his going home services tomorrow I look back on the great times we had as a family and the many laughs we shared.

I will use his hard work and determination as a foundation for going forward in achieving my own personal goals and aspirations.

R.I.P Grandpa... You will be missed.

Friends, Family, Associates, And Everyone Else...Where's The Breaking Point?

I remember going fishing as a small kid (hard to believe I was a skinny kid. I know!) and putting my bait on the hook, casting it out, and waiting to receive a hit. The first initial hit was amazing because it meant a fish was chugging on my line. After a few moments I would reel him on in, careful not to snag the line. You could always tell how big the fish was sometimes because of the tension in the line and how hard it was pulling. After a few times doing this you pretty much knew what you were getting being careful not to get too excited.

Fishing is sort of like when you bring people into your circle whether it be friend or family. We get caught up in the fact we have people around us despite what they may offer us. Point blank I have a hard time letting people go. I'm selfish at times (yeah I understand that) but I tend to see beyond people's imperfections. That was until I deciphered that everyone has that breaking point.

FAILURE IS NOT A OPTION

It's been a crazy minute since I updated my 'personal' blog so I decided "Oh what the heck" and go back to my original drawing board. Since the start of this blog in May of 2009 my postings have been a window into my upside down and crazy life. I often take the time to share my goals, accomplishments, and even failures. I was speaking with one of my best friends the other night about one day writing a book on the achieving my own success.I've always considered myself a underdog but through diversity I always seem to prevail. I thought about writing in a journal to express the situations that were going on in my life both good and bad. I nixed that idea and decided I would use these experiences (The Blanco Experiences) to tell the tale of who I was. It would serve as my journal and foundation.

So this afternoon during the moderation of my other blog (http://bizzyblanco.com) *shameless plug I know* I decided instead of writing in a notebook and shun out the entire world. I'd share my experiences with you, as you follow me on my journey. Hopefully something I may say or write about can be influential to what you may be going through or hoping to achieve.

I'm gonna do my damnest to blog every few days...So stay tuned because like I've always said "The Best Is Yet To Come"

I refuse to allow Failure to win this battle

Graduation and Beyond.... Creating My Brand!

It's been a long 2 years. Setbacks, breakup, lost ties, and everything else imaginable but God has held me down through it all. So what exactly is the next big thing for B?


Well for starters I will graduate tomorrow obtaining a degree in Surgical Technology. It may not sound like much right now but one can't go wrong in the healthcare field. If I'm gonna fall back on anything I'd want to have cushion on something that will keep me afloat in case another "recession" wants to rear it's ugly head.


I have no limitations about relocating out of my element as I'm ready to embark on what the rest of the world has to offer me.


Looking forward I have a dream that I have envisioned for myself since way back. To create something that I can call my own, network, and hopefully prosper with. I'm in the process creating an entertainment website. It's still being developed but so far I'm happy with the way it's shaping up. I want to stand apart from all the rest and bring stories that are both uplifting and exciting and be the voice of the underdog.


"I Can Do All Through Christ Who Strengthens Me"


Stay Tuned! I'm still keeping this blog to keep people updated on my life and to vent occasionally.

Miscommunication killz a Relationship(s)

1. Lack of clear or adequate communication.
2. An unclear or inadequate communication.

Miscommunication amongst people happens everyday. It's not intentional (most of the time) but it does happen and we send mix signals to the other party and assumptions occur when someone doesn't respond the way we would like. 


I've had it happen to me and I'm sure others have as well. It's not nice and often leads to the ending of friendships, relationships, and worse family ties. Communication is a very successful instrument in securing the longevity of many of our relationships but something we neglect because we think they will "always" be around.


There is nothing worse then caring for someone deeply and they turn the other cheek when you want to just say hello or what's going on? The person may have deeper issues but because they don't communicate effectively you assume otherwise and things deteriorate.


I'm a people person point blank and my lines are always open.. I just wish others would be so considerate when dealing with others.
