Cool Slideshows!Hey guys, my name is Jenene. Well, Jenene is actually my middle name, and it is my preferred name. My full name is Crystal Jenene Carter. I am a poet, teacher, and a free spirit. I love life, and I love meeting new people. I believe in the power of words, so I choose to be positive when I speak. I believe that negativity is a waste of time and energy. I'm a little bit country, a little bit rock, with a dash of hip-hop, and jazz. I am a huge Marley fan, complete with my crown of locs and a knack for most things revolutionary.

My Interests

Writing Poetry, Music (I'm a bit eclectic, so I love a lot of different kinds of music.), teaching (I love children.)
Cool Slideshows!

I'd like to meet:

Jesus, I think he was the world's first superstar. Bob Marley, what he did with music and politics is still amazing. Oprah (need I say more); Langston Hughes, Zora Neal Hurston, Nikki Giovanni, Malcolm X, Marcus Garvey, A. Phillip Randolph, W.E.B. DuBois, Booker T. Washington, and Bill Gates.

Music:

I love so many types of music that it's ridiculous. Sometimes I chill to Marley, Stevie, Roberta (Flack) or some neo-soul. Other times it's R&B, jazz, funk, country, blues, rock, or hip-hop. I grew up in a family of musicians, so I love many types of genres.

Movies:

I hate to admit it, but I'm a sucker for Romantic Comedies. Molly Ringwald in the 80's on a Saturday morning is so my thing.

Television:

Don't watch too much TV; I'm always at work or working on a project.

Books:

Mine OF COURSE!!! Evolution a collection of poetry by Jenene.

Heroes:

My mother and father; they've battled so many things from haters to terminal illnesses, and they're still the flyest couple that I know.
