About Me

MyGen Profile Generator MyGen Profile GeneratorNow I understand what Ferris Bueller meant: "Life moves pretty quick. If you don't stop & look around once in a while, you could miss it!" Time is flying SOOO fast, I can't believe it's been over a year since we moved to the Bay Area! People ask me if I'd ever move back east, and my answer is always "Why?!" Cal kicks ass! There's always something fun & adventuresome to do. I ♥ snowboarding, surfing, hiking, biking, camping, fishing... basically any outdoorsy activity I can do w/ my husband. I also ♥ football, more specifically, the Eagles & Steelers, the Longhorns & the Nittany Lions. My cause~ one love, one heart, one brotherhood of man. My advice to all~ love your brother, love the Earth. My goal~ to become wise in the ways of Rastafari.

My Interests

Snowboarding, surfing, hiking, mountain-biking, camping, running, football, reggae music & the Rastafari culture, road trips, the corruption of politics, PS2~ right now my game of choice is CoolBoarders, old-school cartoons--when they were still good.

I hate that girl), Old School, Brokedown Palace, In God's Hands, Casino, Girl Interrupted, Half-Baked, Fight Club, Natural Born Killers, Marked For Death, Face Off, Training Day, The Hurricane, Labyrinth

Thank you, DirecTV.

Heroes:

Marcus Garvey, for being the front-runner for Rastafari~ having the courage to speak out against the oppressive Babylon forces, and for setting the stage for ppl like Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, and other notable rastas... width="425" height="350" ..
