It's True! That's what my name means! :)

About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
LOVE IT: The Comic Non Sequitur (it's witty and makes you think) http://www.gocomics.com/nonsequitur/
Is it possible to really explain myself in this cute little section? I'll just list things as them come to mind
1) 1/2 Egyptian, 1/2 American (Illinois to be specific) and no - I don't know Arabic (minus a few words).
2) I have two beautiful nieces, and I love them as though they were my own.
3) I am a VERY good dancer (one of the few things I have an ego about, along with horseback riding skills [and care of horses]). The dancing arises from a mixture of lessons and lucky natural talent. Alas, I did not pursue a dancing career because I have exercise induced Asthma (doesn't stop me from dancing for fun; however, professional standards would have been dangerous for me).
4)My fantasy job would be a porn actress because I ABSOLUTELY LOVE A LOT of sex, and I would make a good living. With that money, I could take care of the obvious (mortgage, etc - but I would still attend college because the BA is important - for moi). Also, I would be able to donate a lot of money to causes that are important to me: global warming, wild horses and unicef. Unfortunately, I can't because it would hurt my dad (a lot), and I cannot do that to him.

My Interests

Horses (my cause connected to this love are wild horses. Return to Freedom )

I'd like to meet:

As long as you are kind, I would like to meet you...I believe in love for humanity

:) Short but simple huh? :)~

As far as romance, I'll allow Callisto (from Xena) to elaborate

"Love is a trick that nature plays to get us to reproduce. I want no part of it." ;) :) And it's true! Dr. Helen Fisher (an anthropologist) has published books about this. For example, "Why We Love: The Nature and Chemistry of Romantic Love" From Publishers Weekly Anthropologist Fisher argues that much of our romantic behavior is hard-wired in this provocative examination of love. Her case is bolstered by behavioral research into the effects of two crucial chemicals, norepinephrine and dopamine, and by surveys she conducted across broad populations. When we fall in love, she says, our brains create dramatic surges of energy that fuel such feelings as passion, obsessiveness, joy and jealousy. Fisher devotes a fascinating and substantial chapter to the appearance of romance and love among non-human animals, and composes careful theories about early humans in love. One of her many surprising conclusions suggests that, since "four-year birth intervals were the regular pattern of birth spacing during our long human prehistory," our modern brains still deal with relationships in serially monogamous terms of about four years. Indeed, Fisher gathered data from around the world showing that divorce was most prevalent in the fourth year of marriage, when a couple had a single dependent child. Fisher also reports on the behaviors that lead to successful lifelong partnerships and offers, based on what she's observed, numerous tips on staying in love. And though she's certain that chemicals are at love's heart, Fisher never loses her sense of the emotion's power or poetry.

Music:

Lacuna Coil (I saw them in concert 11/24/06 - AMAZING!) - Cristina is VERY talented...:)

Check out Lacuna Coil

My Chemical Romance

Love Madonna - I also enjoy jazz, classical, most genres

Movies:

Lord of the Rings Extended Editions, Animated Features, The Black Stallion

Television:

National Geographic Channel

Daily Show, Stephen Colbert

Desperate Housewives

Sex and the City DVDs

Books:

I prefer Non Fiction - usually about animals/nature. For example, Devil's Teeth (about the Great White Sharks of the Farallon Islands).

I am pretending that this category is "Reading" versus Books: I also enjoy One Good Move (website) http://onegoodmove.org/1gm/

Heroes:

Nobody can stay on a pedestal; however, for those that project an ideal, at that time, they have my respect. Most people have something about them that causes me to feel as though they are amazing and contributing to the world. True, there are those that are complete assholes - and they - obviously - do not apply.
