About Me

Beginning again without 300 pounds of baggage following me haha:) But through it all, Im still me and proud that I have not let circumstances change the wonderful person that I know I am. (Yes, I suffer from high self esteem:)

"For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run his fingers through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge you'll never walk alone ... People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed and redeemed and redeemed. Never throw out anybody. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of your arm. As you grow older you will discover that you have two hands. One for helping yourself, the other for helping others." -- Audrey Hepburn"life and death, energy and peace if i stopped today it was fun even the terrible pains that have burnt me and scarred my soul it was worth it for having been allowed to walk where i've walked which was to hell on earth heaven on earth back again, into, under, far in between, through it, in it over and above it."-Gia Carangi

Movies:

Don't laugh-my favorite movie is Dirty Dancing, Patrick Swayze was the love of my life for like... three years after it came out:) I cry when watching Imitation of Life and Hotel Rwanda, I laugh at Tommy boy, and I am touched by Untamed Heart and Bed of Roses (or maybe its just Christian Slater's voice?). I have an intense passion of old movies, like Days of the Wine and Roses, Valley of the Dolls, Of Human Bondage(no it's not a porno), Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Whatever Happend to Baby Jane, Breakfast at Tiffany's, and A Streetcar Named Desire. (I could go on and on forever!)I like foreign films with subtitles- and pretty much anything Polanski, Lilya 4ever, Hable con ella...I like pretty much everything though, well not really, thats a lie, but I love all kinds of movies.
