Oh, this racism is killing me inside

About Me

I'm short, hispanic, and originally from the big NYC. I love to dance till the break of dawn and eat meals every three hours. Thanks to my lightning speed metabolism I'm not over weight. I live with my wonderful boyfriend and we have been dating for three years now. I'm a hookah enthusiast and a homegirl for life. Among my many passions are film, music, dance, and literature and I hope some day I will be able to pursue a career in one of these fields. I know money wise it's 50/50 but it's what I love, I can't help it. Also, I'm training and learning the ways of Latin Ballroom dancing so I can compete sometime in the near future. Ultimately, I would not be the person that I am today if it wasn't for my family. They've given me their love and support since day one and I thank them for that. If you guys ever want to discuss movies, music, or literature let me know. I love it when people give me book suggestions but my boyfriend would beg to differ. I guess it's cause the world disappears when I'm in story land.

My Interests

Acting, writing, directing, dancing, latin ballroom dancing,the beach, playing pool, amusement parks, books, bowling, music, sky diving (I've done it once and can't wait to do it again) and being with my man.

I'd like to meet:
