I always have a book on hand and really one of any sort. I love playing pool and hanging out with my friends but overall I am an entertainment junkie with things such as books, television, and movies... which no, doesnt help curb me from my ice cream and 'munchies while sitting on the couch' addiction. My true passion though is still writing. It seemed to slip from me a bit for a couple years but now I have it back and enjoy every moment I get at my laptop to tap new ideas and rhymes onto the keys and most especially my time spent on the microphone at readings. I also have discovered the joy of painting and see new colors and strokes in my head daily. But nothing will ever replace my love of words.

I'd like to meet:

NOT looking to meet anyone NEW throught this site so please, if i dont know you, dont email or friend request me. I wont respond. I am just here for current friends or those who have been lost in the winding road of life to reunite again. Thanks for the respect. Besides that I'd like to meet God and Ghandi. God I get to see everyday through blessings and Ghandi I guess I'll have to wait for.

Music:

I love any kind of music that either makes me wanna move, inspires my mind, or soothes with the sound. I love music and although I myself am not musically talented the sound of good tunes seem to help guide me through life and express my inner me.

Movies:

check out Amy's site for cool jewelry. She can make just about anything. She rocks: Also make sure to check out Maximum Nightlife from the link on my Top Friends list or at www.MaximumNightlife.com for all of San Antonio's best bars, nightclubs, restaurants, and events! For listing/advertising info for either the website or our Maximum Nightlife Guide please contact me. Enjoy!

Books:

(The Maximum Nightlife Guide of course!)Favorite quotes:"the bathroom mirror has not budged and the woman who lives there can tell the truth from the stuff that they say. she looks me in the eye and says would you prefer the easy way? no, well o.k. then."--- misc."There are counterfeit pictures of me that have been placed by dreamers over my face in many scenes of this movie. Angrily I push the cameras away and instead place a microphone in front of my heart so you will tell when the true words of my soul dont match the facade of others views and like a bad lipsync you will know the true me... and I myself will too." --- me."The future belongs to those who believe in their dreams." ---Eleanor Roosevelt"Over the last year I have come to realize the truth of freedom. The truth of it is that you may be free to do as you please but you will always be bound by your own mind’s limitations." --- me.

Heroes:

Heroes?... I might have to choose my mother above all others. Her amazing strength through trials she has had to endure in the past, raising three children on her own and such is something I can't help but to admire. Yeah, i would have to say she is my hero. Single parents struggling to make it through and do it right is something to be respected. And the more I see a parent choosing to sacrifice leaves me even more appreciative of their strength and character. I guess my other heroes would be poets. Hearing good spoken word is like giving me soul food and rhythms that my mind dances to. People like Amir (check out his space he's on my top friends list), my true girls Kalia and Vocab, and oh so many others inspire me with their fellowship of a quest for inner knowledge, acceptance, truth, love of themselves and the world, and poetry as a whole. My last hero I have to directly point out is Poetry and Writing itself. It creates a world within and without that feeds off its surroundings and yet breaths life back into the world. Its strength, courage, and abilities are endless and profound. When its good, its a thing of beauty that has been attempted to be described by many and yet can never be fully fathomed within diction. It is a flying superhero... it has saved me many a times. Other than that I find many individual attributes in the people I have been blessed to meet and call friends which I find heroic and admirable. Being able to see them within average people in my daily life keeps me faithful to my beliefs that there is hope and beauty in the world and the people who live here.
