About Me

Hello everyone! I am currently attending the University of Connecticut! It's been an amazing experience thus far and it's only the beginning. I have been able to make some really great friends. This past year I did an internship at my church St. Catherine of Siena Newman Center. It was so much fun and a lot of work, but it was worth it in the end.I love to hang out with friends, chill, and work. I don't know what I would do without my family and friends-Thank you guys for everything!!!If you know me, you know that I LOVE sports! They are a large part of my life and also have played a huge role in why I am strong and determined today. This is pretty much all about me for right now. If you want to know more...just send me a message.

My Interests

I like hangin' out and having fun!! Being real...and doing extreme things...like sky diving are things about me too. I love spendin' time with my family and friends...they are the reasons I wake up every morning and go to sleep every night!

I'd like to meet:

I have been privaledged to meet some pretty awesome ppl in my life...including all my friends.I want to meet inspiring...trustworthy...honest...chill ppl. So if you fit that profile...just message me and we can talk! Even if your just one of those things...i'd still love to meet ya!

Music:

I love pretty much any music. I'm beginning to like country music...I love R & B music the most. It's the tightest to dance to. I love music with beat and rhythm. If it has both of those things...I'll listen to it. I can't leave out my salsa and merengue...I love dancing to them all the time!

Movies:

One of my favorite movies is Madeas Family Reunion. I laughed, cried, and learned from it. Definately one of the best movies ever!! My other absolutely favorite movie is Hardball! I can watch that a million times and never get bored with it. (Just ask my family). I love any movie that is funny, has action, and that has meaning. (I know, kind of corny). But that is who I am.

Television:

I love watching House, CSI Miami and NY, Law and Order SVU and just Law and Order too. I watch Oprah on a daily basis and sometimes catch American Idol. After the first one, I just TIVO it and watch it if I have time. I have watched every episode of both the O.C. and Desperate Housewives series too! I also looovvvveeee watching sports games, whether it's a football, basketball, soccer, volleyball, softball or tennis game, I watch it. People say that if I am in love with anything...it's sports. It's sad that I can admit some truth in that statement.

Books:

Reading isn't my favorite thing to do...but when I do read...they are either autobiographies, horror stories, novels, fantasy, and anything that has to do with psychology. My faviorite childhood book is "Where the Wild Things Are." A book I'm looking forward to read is "All God's Children."

Heroes:

I have many heroes....First and foremost...my MOM...she has been there through thick and thin....I love her and can always count on her...all of my friends love her too...she is really down to earth...another thing I love about her!!!-My bro GUY...he is tight..and can get on my nerves...but i still love him...he loves cars and I am counting on him to find me a tight car...and also work on it one day...maybe detail it in his shop in the future.-My sis ELISIA...she has always been there when I needed her...and still is...I know that whenever I am in trouble...she will be there...-Scratchy, who happens to be my cat...though she may give me attitude sometimes and can be a pain in the ass...I love her to death...don't know what I would do without her!!!-my POPS...I love him so much....i have always been a daddy's girl...he has been there for the most part of my life...-my little bro JESSE...i can always count on him being there to make me happy and laugh...he is so smart and cute...all the little girls better watch out for him when he gets older...ill be watching him closely...jp-my little sis YERI...she has attitude and is very creative...she loves being with me and looks up to me...she is cute and smart too...i love her!!!!-my stepmom LILIANA...she always makes me laugh and has taken me like im one of her own...she always helps me with my spanish and is cool to talk to...all of my family...and last but not least...all of my friends who have been there for me including my BEST FRIEND EVER, ZIGGY. He is so funny and so freakin' smart. I always have a blast when we hang out! LIBERTY, she is my girl, always in a happy mood and cheering me up. We are up at the U of U together! Go Utes! There are many more....I love all of them and am thankful for them being in my life. Thanks to all of my heroes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I'd also like to pay tribute to a person who made an impact in my life growing up. I knew a wise man...who was always very funny and who gave great advice. He was known as "Mr. Sam" by all the neighbor kids...though that was not even his name. He was very strong and caring. All of us neighbor kids shared many great memories on his porch listening to stories and learning life lessons. He has passed away...but will always remain in our heartrs...
