About Me

I love sports (especially boxing, which I used to teach), my cat, my new nephew, my spit-fire grandmother, movies, comedy, travel (especially to Vegas), almost all things latin, themed parties... Okay things I hate; mean people, liars, sitting on cold toliet seats, fishing, flying when I am sick, doing dishes when I made dinner...lolMy Passion right now is starting up my non profit.

Music:

I like a lot of stuff. Latin, Flamenco, jazz, top 40, acoustic, reggae, alternative. I do not like country music, and believe me I have tried to like it. I just cant do it.

Movies:

I love movies. Everything from classics to now. I took a few film studies classes and I love the movies even more. Writing a ten page paper on the native american symbolism in the Shinning (directed by Kubrick) makes you look at movies as more than entertainment, but as a means in which to send the masses hidden messages. Dun, dun, dun. just kidding, I dont care about the symbolism, I just like to be entertained! I like comedy, action, mystery, sci-fi (sometimes, not the 80's stuff like "Tron") and the occasional thriller.

Television:

My Fav TV show in the world is Funny Videos.. Cause I love to laugh!.. width="425" height="350" ....Wow, TV is a point of converstation now? Hmmm, I like to limit myself, because TV doesnt give back.... this is also a touchy point because of my non profit... I dont like who I see when I turn on the tv.

Books:

Since I finished college, with all the required reading, now I have found out about a little thing called "Pleasure Reading". I have read a few of Dan Brown's stuff like, Angels and Demons, Deception Point, and The DaVinci Code. I really like Janet Evanovich, metro girl and the three of the stephanie plum series that I have read so far outta eight.

Heroes:

I dont like to idolize people I have never met, because everyone has faults. Someone you think is great on the surface could be a wife beater behind closed doors. I try to just appreciate what I have and not look to much upon others.
