I am here for Friends

About Me

I am a girly girl that really likes to explore all that life has to offer. I love people and value friendships above all. I believe that we are all connected and that there is nothing to fear in life except hatred and ego. I am originally from Canada, but my parents moved me and my sis to Cali in the '80s. I have traveled alot and that is something that I never want to stop doing. Still so many places to go. Throughout my many career paths I have discovered my skills in hairstyling and that is what I do now. I love it and it's creativity thrills me. I never stop, I always work hard and I love to meet people. I try to smile when the shit gets me down and laugh when others can't smile.Music is an intrigal part of my life, always has been. Dancing used to be my one and only but now... I just dance when me and my friends when we have a few!!! My friends say I should be a massage therapist but I reserve my strong hands for those that know me well. I love to shop ( back to the girly girl part).... oh I have a thing for shoes.... I have pretty strong family ties, even though most of them are not in the U.S. So lets enjoy life, try our best to be good fucking humans and hope that when we are gone we can be remembered for something.
