Forget Regret, or life is yours to miss.

About Me

I was born in Cebu, Phillippines, where a good portion of my family still resides. I support live music and independant musicians and I am a bellydancing instructor. I love fliritng, rockstar boys, ice cream (although it kills me), lapdances, flirting with rockstar boys smothered in ice cream giving me lapdances. I'm on this journey to become spiritually centered. None of the forementioned items are helping me on this long journey. But here are things I love that keep me spiritually sound: Reading, working out, dancing, smiling, baking, sharing my heart, roadtrips, hiking, the mountains, camping, hugs and...(fill in the blank) I'm wickedly sarcastic. Somewhere down the line, I have lost that filter that most people have in their heads. So I have this tendency to say inappropriate things before thinking them through. My best friends says I have adult onset Terrets. Is there such a thing? I live in and for the moment. This is now, we are here. I'm a patient girl, I dislike drama or people who create it for themselves and those around them, I'm fair and I try to be as honest as I can. I like real people, and those who can make me laugh. And I am a simple pleasure kinda person. It's the little things in life that make me smile. I am SUCH a virgo! And I love it!!
