So I decided to log into my myspace account today and I rediscovered my old blog! My old blog was definitely not celebrity or entertainment based at all. It was more personal, deeper and really revealed my innermost thoughts and feelings. So I want to bring some of that to Cherryconnect.com. Afterall this blog is about making a “connection” right? So I found an old entry I wrote and it was called “Spilled Milk (when it’s gone, it’s gone).” Check it out below.
Has there ever been a time where you were in the kitchen and you had just enough milk for cereal, coffee or even pancakes? So you reach into the fridge and you being clumsy, drop that carton of milk and now you’re pissed. You’re pissed because you took your time out to make that bowl of cereal, and/or got the ingredients that you needed to make pancakes just to drop the little bit of milk you had left. You were too lazy to go to the store knowing that you may not even have enough milk in the first place. Now you have to clean up the mess or “spilled milk” and put your cereal/coffee/pancakes on hold until you can replace that milk. Well that “spilled milk” represents people in the past who attempted to satisfy your hunger for that brief moment but now they’re “spilled” or gone. This can be ex-girlfriends, ex-boyfriends, ex-friends or whoever. When you spill milk just clean it up and go to the store and buy another one. There is plenty to choose from so you will not miss that old milk. Remember milk spoils in about a week anyway. The moral of this story is “don’t cry over spilled milk”. It’s gone and probably spoiled and you can’t use it again anyway .
As I reflect on this blog post, I realized that I really had a valid point! Why cry over milk that’s spilled? It’s GONE. Let go of the past and move on to a better and brighter future. I can drink (milk) to that! Thoughts are welcome.
*Be on the lookout for more posts like this in the future*

Christina Aguilera’s highly anticipated video “Not Myself Tonight” recently premiered. It’s the first single from her upcoming album Bionic which will hit stores on June 8th. FYI this video may NOT be safe for work depending on your job.
Wow Christina is getting dirtier than “dirty” alright. SMH. I honestly couldn’t really pay attention to the song or the lyrics like I wanted to. Definitely a “shock value” type of video.Thoughts?
Domenick Occhiogrosso, a subway motorman suffered a fatal heart attack while operating the G Train on Wednesday morning. He had just pulled the train Domenick Occhiogrosso had just pulled the train out of the Court Square station in Long Island City, Queens, when he had the attack (shortly after 8 am). No passengers were injured because of NYC subway trains’ “Dead-Man” feature. In the motorman’s cab there is a metal arm that is a few inches long called the controller. In order to set the train in motion, the operator had to press down on the controller arm with several pounds of pressure, swivels it and holds on. If the motorman lets go of the controller, the emergency brakes are applied. So when Mr. Occhiogrosso suffered the fatal heart attack the train stopped.
The conductor noticed that he was unconscious and radioed for help. Mr. Occhiogrosso, 50, of Bath Beach, Brooklyn, was pronounced dead at Elmhurst Hospital Center at 9:20 a.m., officials said.
