I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me


About ME?? Why - how sweet of you to ask =Þ
To sum it all up, I'm a positive, dramatic, friendly, energetic, sarcastic, happy workaholic, heh...
I Love my PHAMily, baby, friends, dogg, and my businesses vrry much - they keep me sane, blessed, complete.
I'm very success-driven and I DON'T want to settle for the norm because that's NOT to my potential and being "average" is NOT what I'm here on Earth to be. I'm not as smart as my friends and family, but hell I'm quick and I make up for it with hard work and persistence.
Things I Hate: People who go out of their way to negatively talk about or hurt others versus doing something more productive for society, or even their damn selves - LAME; songs that have no soul - a good beat and no good lyrics to complete it (rap and slow jams these days); people who complain; probably most importantly, being taken for granted - it's the worst feeling in the world =(
Although I do take business, money, and relationships very seriously, I am a total goofball and luv to have fun. Why?? Because life is just too short to spend it worrying, criticizing, and complaining. If you don't like something - change it. If you can't change it - change your attitude. Stop whining about how unfair things are in life - that doesn't magically make life better for you, and although it isn't your fault that you may've started off in an unfavorable situation, it IS your fault if you stay in it. Don't wait for things to happen - MAKE them happn..And giggle a little at life. Laughter is the cure for everything - promise.

My Interests

SINGING, music, traveling/cruises, reading/learning, golf, comedy clubs, concerts, money, working out, reading, writing (songs, stories, business proposals, ad copy), career/business/entrepreneur/investing stuff, movies, volleyball, tennis, ping pong, Barnes and Noble, sugar/candy/desserts, CHEESE, sushi, sushi that has cheese on it (hehe), lame jokes, just straight up being around funny people...

I'd like to meet:


6 types of people, actually:
(1) I'd be REAAAALLLY star struck if I could meet Jennifer Ho *melting*
(2) People who love to sing, or play music to make up for my inability to play the guitar/piano, heh, I'm learning though!
(3) I'm always happy to meet sincere, warm, funny, focused, and REAL people...and it doesn't hurt if you play volleyball neither, heh...
(4) Aspiring entrepreneurs and career professionals - I'd love to learn from you, talk business, share ideas, network, collaborate for ventures, or simply just play a little golf =)
(5) One of the greatest friends I've ever had the honor of knowing, that I stupidly hurt really bad. Hurting him was the worst thing I've ever done in my life. He knows who he is. I miss you and I'm sorry, Bro..
(6) My 2.53 million cousins of course!! =P

Music:

I am head over heels in LOVE with singing. I used to breathe, eat, sleep, dream, live singing - but you know how growing up and life's pressures can have a stupid effect on your dreams *sigh*...but I am trying to get back into it, and if anybody out there luvs singing too, or writes songs, let me know and let's jam. I'm not "Boyz 2 Men" great or anything, but would love to do it more actively as a hobby and to learn to be better =) Thanks J, and everybody else in the past for teaching me how to use my voice to express myself...
