About Me

My Interests

I love to dance though as I get older with more responsibility its not as frequent as I like. I also love to sing. I actually performed in front of an audience and everything! I like to travel (when I have the money) and volunteer (when I have the time). Also, if finances allow it I'll shop (I have an affinity for shoes). I also have an interest in collecting llama memorabilia.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone and everyone...as long as they're not too wacked out or creepy.

Music:

Pretty much anything except Bluegrass (too twangy). I like hip-hop, R&B, pop, classical, spanish guitar, country, and rock. But I find myself listening too spanish pop a lot. I like anything with a good beat or meaningful words to it.

Movies:

Harry Potter (of course), Lord of the Rings, most documentaries and foreign films, Zoolander, Dodgeball, French Kiss, Pirates of Penzance, Kate and Leopold, Motorcycle Diaires and many others I can't think of at this moment.

Television:

Two-in-a Half Men, The New Adventures of Old Christine, any CSI or Law and Order, Medium, Lost, Criminal Minds, Numbers (though I never get to see it), Grey's Anatomy, and Family Guy.

Books:

I like to read Harry Potter, child psychology texts, and off the wall pensive books.

Heroes:

My grandma. My grandma came from a family of migrant workers and came to the United States speaking no English. She came to San Antonio and received a Cosmetology degree. Despite her unmotivated and controlling husband (my grandfather) she taught herself how to drive while my mother was in grade school. My grandmother made my mom's prom dresses (which I wish she kept) and always managed to keep a smile on her face and food on the table. She was able to scrounge enough money (from odd jobs here and there since my grandfather would't allow her to renew her cosmetology license) to pay for my mom's nursing school so that my mom would never have to take out a loan. She just turned 87 last Friday and she still mows her own lawn, cooks, washes, pay bills, and walks the 2 miles to the grocery store every week.
