God grant me the strength to change what I can, and the patience to accept what I cannot.

About Me

"Can't We All Just... Get Aloooong?" Me=People-kinda-person. I like to mingle with folks, and I'm very open. I'm a Libra born in the year of the Dragon, so I'm very balanced about everything I do. So that covers everything from being the responsible one in the group, to getting so drunk I can't remember who I was riding with. Sometimes I swear I have a.d.d., other times I can stare out at the world for hours. I treasure all my friendships and personal relationships, just because it would be wrong not to, right? Right. Okay then, I also like logical thinking, and problems which require it, almost anything fascinates me and stirs up childlike curiousity... it's more fun that way, lol. I guess that explains my love for cars, mechanical things, electronics, etc. If it's broken, I'm takin' it apart. People tell me I'm anal, well, cuz I guess I am. I don't like loose ends, and some stuff just HAS to be a certain way for me, after all, there's an art to everything. Realistically though, it keeps me neat, so that's the cool part about it. I get sidetracked easily, and I procrastinate. Ugh. But when I get started, I'll give it my all. I got so many hobbies, it's not even funny... no really, I mean it. I also love getting into deep philosophical talks, but leave government, politics and too much organized religion at the door. Instead, I'm all about finding the "truths" in life that are all much simpler and indisputable ideas. I truly believe it is faith that will save you, more than religion. Ooh! I love music, music everywhere, and sure, I can dance a little. I study the martial arts... not for the ass-kicking part (although it IS cool), but mostly for its life philosophies and the positive attributes it gives to an individual. The one thing that ticks me off is when people have problems with other people. I know that all sounds ironic and very conflicting, but if you have the time to sit down, I'll explain it to you, hehe. Oh yeah. and I have a big sense of humor. People tell me I have a laugh that makes you laugh with me... actually, I think that's the ONLY thing people ever remember about me! ...oh, and I talk a lot too.

I'm sure I missed more than a few. Ironically, I don't keep up with sports scores. Go figure.

I'd like to meet:

FRIENDS, OLD AND NEW! I'm just friendly like that, lol. Oh you mean The One? ".. someone who's old enough to believe in fairy tales again" ... if you can understand that quote, you're the girl. ;)
Oh, and I've removed my Top Friends section to stop the seemingly-endless favoritism comments. =P
Hit me up on Yahoo! IM , I'm a chat addict, hahah... fro_bernal
" Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely, in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, "WOW! WHAT A RIDE!!!!!"

Music:

Everything, and I mean everything. If it makes me sing, hum, dance, or spin it... I'm down.

Movies:

Coming to America, anything Wayans, anything sci-fi, horror, interesting ones like V for Vandetta... Hmm. Office Space. Napoleon Dynamite. That's actually hella funny, go vote for Pedro. Wanna watch something mildly amusing? Go to my videos

Television:

I'm not quite sure anymore... whatever my DVR has on it, lol... okay, I won't lie to you. I'm a Discovery and History Channel addict. So what.

Books:

I've read ALL of Stephen King's books... yes, the books are better than the movies. =P Ooh. And The Da Vinci Code. Tryin' to finish Angels & Demons, and two philosophy books... I got sidetracked and read Kite Runner somewhere inbetween...

Heroes:

GOD, Jesus Christ, My family, All my friends, Anyone who has ever gone that extra mile, to make this place just a little bit better... we know that there's enough bulls**t in the world as it is, so kudos to the ones that balance it out. peace.

Oh. I'm on Friendster too. There's a ton more pictures on there!! =)

My Blog

Photography? Or maybe just looking simply at Life...

I KNOW cameras are better than cameraphones, okay?! But since I have the latter on me all the time, I snap pictures every now and then. I just want to show you that interesting, beautiful, and astound...

The 3 conflicts of any situation.

First, you learn to deal with the situation by distracting yourself. This is the easiest road to take in the beginning. You simply let go of the things that sadden or hurt you. NO one in this world ha...

Fighting your demons is easier... they're real, alive, something almost tangible. You know them like the back of your hand, almost knowing that they must exist along with the good. Dealing w...
