About Me

my page is f*cked up with all these cheapie layouts...i'm going to probably cancel this account, so look for my new page and such. peace, xoxo

My Interests

Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / Take me as i am.

LEARNING! Reading and writing as much as possible and in no particular order: dance of all forms (Fusha Dance Company-Congolese), women's health esp. differences in women of color, media analysis and research, Yankees baseball, domestic and international travel, offbeat fashion, music of most genres and styles, politics, astrology, spirituality, sex and sexuality, love, self-analysis, education, Brazil (especially Tijuaca Forest), organic farming and cooking, nutrition, learning how to use my camera, business strategy, investing, civil rights, reproductive justice and feminism, eating, producing video and music mixes, playing the guitar (i'm learning!), mixing potions *cackle*

I'd like to meet:

goddesses and gods; kings and queens, kindred spirits who respect yin and yang. balanced people. people who can understand and respect my sensitivity. people who treat others with respect. people who are thankful for the little things. people who accept me for who i am. people who are committed to knowing themselves; good, bad and ugly. people who support me but challenge me to be better. people who appreciate my kindness. love in the flesh...again.

Music:

whatever will make me dance, sing or cry

Heroes:

people who live freely, people who aren't afraid to love and be kind, people who fight for their beliefs, people who are focused on their dreams, people who live to inspire, women of color activists past and present who show unlimited courage, strength, and enthusiasm; my parents who are my blessings and love me unconditionally; my family and friends, my grandmas
