Hey Karen!

Happiest baby in the world ;)

About Me

She ain't the average girl from music videos. Her worth is not determined by the price of her clothes. It really depends on whatever feels good in her soul. And I know our Creator did not make mistakes on her. Her face, her feet, her hands, her lips, her eyes...I'm lovin' what I see. She ain't built like a supermodel. But she loves herself unconditionally because she is a queen. Keep your fancy drinks and your expensive minks. Keep your expensive car and your caviar. Keep your crisp style and your pistol. Because she's got everything that she could ever need in life. The girl who got away. The girl who can't sit still. The girl who embodies free-spiritedness. She's as elusive as a butterfly. If you ever get to catch her, do give me a call because I will give you my praise. But don't you ever tighten your grip or you'll fly without a plane from Morocco to Auckland. --- Her big bro from Jersey City, Peter TorresLATEST STUFF FROM THE WEIRD CHICK!THE BIG SURF TRIP! 91 IMAGESWILD WILD WEST Y'ALL! :)LATEST GLOBE-TROTTIN' EXPERIENCE: THE GREAT SINGAPOREAN CHRONICLES --- by the Brokeback Mountain Girlies (Hahaha!) 89 IMAGES
MY LIFE IN A NUTSHELL :) 49 IMAGES
Eccentric, driven, and tremendously more fun than a huge barrel of drunk monkeys. Critically defined as crazy by her friends, her family, and some strangers...absolutely great at making fun of herself (slips, falls, and rolling down stairs and hills), parading weird faces at people she knows and don't, exhibiting unbelievably acrobatic shenanigans, and making a complete fool of herself. However, she does have a normalcy...her expertise are swigging down jaegermeister and tequila shots, dancing as if no one's watching, singing her heart out, driving around like a mad woman and loving the people in her life as if there's no tomorrow. Life is her passion...she enjoys living to the fullest and maintains a very positive outlook to the point of being excessively annoying to others...she cant seem to get enough of lifealways in a different place, always trying out something new, and always in one of her outrageous dispositions. She practically does everything that doesnt kill heryet. --- Keith, the boy who will never desert her...yet=P www.xanga.com/justkaren, www.audreyhepburn.com, www.aliciakeys.net, www.thosebrowneyes.com, www.loveactually.com, www.kirjasto.sci.fi/neruda.htm, www.manutd.com/home/default.sps, www.formula1.com

If that woman were me, I would love him alone and forever." --- Francesca Bruni...to all the men who think they are Casanovas or God's gift to women. Damn right, girl! :)
