I live in Long Beach with my boyfriend of 8 years, Allan, and our two dogs, Peasy and Argos. It's a beautiful struggle. Nothing beats spending quality time with my family and friends. I like to surround myself with people who not only have goals, but do the hard work it takes to reach those goals. Like Katt Williams said, you gotta surround yourself with people who are trying to do better and better. I love my Contra mob and Booniez girls. I enjoy a good party once in a while, but just hanging out and doing nothing can be great therapy. I enjoy playing video games and watching movies, sports, and educational programs. Since beginning to shop for a house, I've also gotten into HGTV. I'll admit that I'm a sucker for some of those reality shows too. I've pretty much got every Friends episode memorized. I'm a basketball fan and am often referred to as a Laker hater, but it's more that I dislike Kobe Bryant. I'm a growing Angels fan. I've been bodyboarding for years and got into snowboarding these past 2 years. I'm a big dork and am a sucker for word games and logic puzzles, i.e. Scrabble and Sudoku. I enjoy a good read. I've been into memoirs lately. I consider my musical taste to be relatively eclectic, but if I don't think it's quality music, I probably won't listen to it or bother buying the CD. I am partial to hip hop and rock, but I'm also a hardcore Christina Aguilera fan. Go figure. I was once a "sneakerhead," but got outta it a few years ago because it got too saturated. I've been in the social work field for about 2 years now. Every day is different. I'm a strong believer in taking responsibility for your actions. I tell it like it is. Some people can handle that and some people can't. Everybody makes mistakes. What's important is recognizing those mistakes and learning from them.
