About Me

I am a 21 year old aspiring writer/ college student. I'm a neophyte member of the oh so blutiful, oh so sweet Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. To my ls's, lb's, sandz, sorors, and frat, a big z-phi and blu-phi! I have met many of you truly gifted and talented individuals and I thank you for all the love you've shown me and for welcoming me into the family. To my LSs especially. Ladies, I feel like we really got to know one another and are just like family now...with both the good and bad connotations, lol! We fought, we supported, and we grew together. We have the inside jokes and the moments, and I will never forget you ladies, ever!Now for me beyond the sentimentality. I'm two completely different people, depending on how well you know me. To those who only know the surface, I'm a punctual person who is all about her business, smart, and can seem quite rude--either because I appear to be ignoring you, or I've said something with an acerbic bite or a sarcastic twist. To those who know me beyond the surface, I'm silly, shy, sensitive, and a lot of other intricate things you'd just have to be one of the chosen few to appreciate. I write poetry, novels, short stories, essays, memoir--everything. If I haven't tried it, I'm getting around to it, believe me. Anything else you want to know feel free to ask!
