i am unique. just like everyone else =)

About Me

optimistic. high spirited. sincere. frank. philosophical. i believe in karma. i have a strong faith in Him. jovial. i can be very foolhardy. queer friendly. i cannot cope with a very jealous and possessive partner - my independent spirit will not tolerate any restrictions of my personal freedom. i am not your typical girly girl - i am 20% boyish. my feminine ways are still evident though. but i can never be pa-tweetums. :) i enjoy the company of friends and i love to socialize but i still value solitary time. sometimes i hate planning, only because it takes away the spontaneity of things. i am self-sufficient, spontaneous and i possess a tremendous zest for life. i am a BSE English graduate and i'm a licensed teacher. i consider my work as a nocturnal being in the call center industry the most stressful yet most memorable job i've had so far. i share an enormous amount of history with the people there. currently, i'm taking up my MA studies while working as a training manager. i may not be teaching right now but i still get to play the role of a teacher when i am asked to explain both prosaic and fictional elements. thus, my close friends have tagged me 'Ms. Explain'. my life is played full on, which is why it's chock-full of experiences. i write better when i'm melancholic. i find writing and cooking very therapeutic. i am a chocolate monster. despite being a major coffee lover, i still get sleepy most of the time! i dig chicken isaw and i eat any chicken dish almost everyday. i splurge on good food, coffee and books. i am a music lover -- i adore Coldplay, Tori Amos, Sarah McLachlan, Death Cab for Cutie, Kings of Convenience, Imogen Heap and Dishwalla. i desire to travel a lot. it would be wonderful to see the world with someone i love. cheesy, but i still believe in the L word (that's love :P). yep..that tingling sensation and everything! i will have a loving family someday. i will die as a happy and a very fulfilled woman

The Heat of My Desire

In the still of the evening Without sunlight to intrude I see the twilights in your eyes As the moon sets up the mood Playing music soft and low While romance fills the air I can't help bu...

I've been hiding somewhere between here and the moon, resting my head on clouds and gazing at the stars. I've been at a loss for words, not because nothing has happened but because so much has happene...
