About Me

CUTE BUT PSYCHO! I'm a night owl, love to sleep on Sundays, like to rollerblade and ice-skate, I'm a movie girl, I always wanted to study filmmaking but it had never happened (yet). I have a B.A. in Art History and I'm currently doing my Master's Degree in Library and Information Science, at Pratt Institute, Manhattan. I've been living in NY for a year (I was born and raised in Mexico City). I'm petite, short, and look very, very, but very young (they say like 16, maybe 18), maybe that's why sometimes I act like a little girl or maybe that's why I like Hello Kitty, Sponge Bob, Peanuts, lunchboxes, cartoons, and toys. I have a younger sister, 25, she is a lawyer (and sometimes a liar), she is pretty and smart, I admire her and that's why I'm trying to get along with her better. I'm friendly, sometimes I'm shy, sometimes I'm outgoing, I think I have a strange personality because you never know (not even me) what to expect. I like things to be perfect, I plan every move and everything I do, but at the same time I'm very spontaneous. I usually get what I want because I never give up, I'm very stubborn. I'm very, very organized; I'm obsessed that my things have to be in alphabetical order (my cd's, books, DVD's), by color (my clothes). I also love to put things in order and make lists and schedules. I like to the chaos in order. Give me a messy room to fix and I would be the happiest person on Earth! That's why I want to specialize in archiving and cataloging. And planning to become be a professional closet organizer. My father is the most disorganized person in the world. Ironic! I'm romantic, I love to give gifts to my friends, I care a lot about the small details of life, I LOVE to be in love because I come up with great ideas. I have few friends, most of them are guys, I don't trust girls because I know our specie. I get along better with the opposite sex. I'm very selective, I choose my friends carefully and if I don't like you I won't act as if I do. I'm honest and I hate hypocrite people. I have a very eclectic taste. I can be very creative, I like to watch people (yes, I have voyeuristic tendencies). I'm very curious and nosy. I don't like to think about the future, I just live each day without worrying about tomorrow. For love I can do the impossible, the strangest and craziest things. Everything I like and do is with passion. Nothing can be in the middle, it's yes or no, it's black or white. I'm very impatient, I don't know how to wait, I want everything NOW, not for tomorrow. I'm unpunctually punctual. I don't have tolerance for smokers. I want to eat the world in one bite. I love to travel; I'm planning to go to Shanghai or Iceland sometime. I tend to be a depressive person, I'm a maniac depressive and although I know there's no cure I think I'm doing fine, I was in therapy for years and I loved it, I think it helped me a lot and I considered myself, right now, a happy person. I'm allergic to cats, I never had a dog and I would love to have an Old English Sheepdog (someday) and/or a Chinchilla. I have 1896 songs in my Ipod (and adding more every once in a while). I've been totally, madly, insanely in love and I don't regret it, although, love hurts (ouch!!!). My wounds had healed, although I would always have the scars. I believe in suffering and painful relationships, love comes from the irrational, from the guts, the stomach, not from the brain. I love crazy and impossible love stories. I always suffer for love, I think I care too much for it and I shouldn't. But that's how I am so.... LIFE IS TOO SHORT, EAT DESSERT FIRST!
