Yenna es Buena!

You see things, and say why? I dream things and say why not?!

About Me

I firmly believe "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand - strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!" I recently moved back to the states after having spent the last 4 years in Rome, Italy. I earned my degree from the American U of Rome and am now waiting to see where life takes me next... hopefully one day back to Italia permanently. Hermanitas!! Girls for life

I edited my profile with Thomas?Myspace Editor V3.6 !

My Interests

Having a fabulous time, DANCING..."La Liquadora", meeting new people, makeup, music, the sun, the ocean, traveling, languges, learning new things, reading, and PICTURES!!! http://community.webshots.com/user/yenna19 Lar and I Cory's wedding

I'd like to meet:

My grandparents, and perhaps...James Dean, Marlon Brando in his prime(before he went crazy), Penelope Cruz, Lucille Ball, Eleanor Roosevelt, Martin Luther King Jr., Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, and Angelina Jolie to shake her hand and congratulate her on doing something selfless and amazing. I thought of one more... Carolina Herrera, just to tell her that she makes beautiful clothes and maybe she could make my wedding dress. :)
