About Me

Myspace Layouts by Pimp-My-Profile.com

A product of humble beginnings - I was born and raised in a single parent household in the Bay Area. I learned at a young age that you have to work hard for the things you want in life, people don't just hand them to you. With learning that, I have grown to become a very hardworking, goal oriented and responsible adult. Everything I have in my life I worked for - nothing was ever handed to me.Often referred to as a "Social Butterfly," I love to hang out with friends and have fun - whether it be shopping for a day, or a night dancing in the city; I always manage to have a blast. I love to laugh and goof around, and I enjoy being around my friends and family who love doing the same. I have been blessed to have a handful of friends - some I have known since elementary school. They are my extended family and I love each and every one of them very much. They each contribute that something special to my life - making my life that much more fulfilling and meaningful.Besides being a little too smart for my own good (*wink*); I have a very strong, intuitive sixth sense that never seems to steer me wrong. I am not one of those hard headed people who have to learn from my own mistakes, I have learned some of life's biggest lessons from other people's mistakes. I am an extremely sweet person with a huge heart, but never mistake that for being naive or even weak. Like all women, I can be a bitch, and I do flex that side of myself on occasion.I have my quirky ways as well - for instance, I color code my clothes in my drawers and I eat my Reeses cups - chocolate first before enjoying the peanut butter center, of course. Not to mention, I love attention. Anyone who knows me knows that I just love having my hair played with and I love being massaged. My other loves in life include dim sum, the color brown, and of course the one and only Mariah Carey. But you all knew that.When I love, I love completely and whole heartedly - I could never short change the love of my life (Wayne) and give him anything less than what I expect to get in return. I have been told that I am one of the most loyal and honest individuals anyone could ever meet. I take great pride in that and strive to maintain that reputation. After all, this is who I am, this is me.

Sneak Peak of what is to come...can't give it all away, now can I?Here is a sneak peak of the vineyard we are going to be overlooking during our nuptials... nice way to start a marriage, don't ya think?Yup...got one more thing off of the list - we are now registered! It is getting close, the wedding will be here in no time...

My Interests

I love sunsets at Bodega Bay, road trips with my love Wayne, a night out with my girls dancing, as well as I enjoy a quiet evening at home, just vegging out. I enjoy the simple things in life like trying a new recipe for a loved one, shopping at the mall, and I love spending quality time with friends/family. And since I am a new owner of a digital camera, photography has been a new love of mine. I am like my own paparazzi, I take pictures whenever I can...My man on Duty...love the uniform...such a turn on...Here is a random one of Wayne that I snapped while on our motorcycle ride 5/28/07 - love catching him off guard.I think this is the cutest picture - my Wayne with his Best Man's baby. She just loves her Uncle Wayne.Got tired of the darker hair - since Spring is in the air, I decided to go lighter. Do you like???Take a look at Bodega Bay - isn't it beautiful? It is one of our favorite places to go get away!Wayne carved this heart into a sand wall last time we were here on his birthday June 2006...and it is still here, a whole 6 months later. All the different elements of weather could have deteriorated it, but here it is, still prominent. I find it pretty symbolic; I guess that means our love can make it through anything...Our "spot" up along the coast - we like to venture here twice a year!I love my girls!!!Look at this sweet picture little Wayne's sister Lea drew for me. I was so touched by it and wanted to show everyone.Pictures of me and my beautiful little Niece Anna BananaHere is my baby and I on my birthday hanging out watching my new movie Sixteen Candles...and of course Wayne goofing around is a normal thing.Here we are on his bike in Placerville for the Officer's Memorial Ride. Nice overnight trip...Here is Ed and his wife Marisela - Ed introduced Wayne and I. What a good man! He is going to be one of Wayne's groomsmen!Can you say "Sexy" - LOL :)Cute Couple Alert!Here are some candid pictures of Wayne and I - I love you sweetie...

I'd like to meet:

I have already met Mariah once, but I would love to meet her again!Henry's 28th Birthday at Club NV...We had a blast. Of course, I got up there and shook things I forgot I had - and I felt it the next day, but it reminded me of the good ol' days. It had nothing to do with meeting people, getting numbers, and getting drunk - but it had everything to do with hanging out with old friends, feeling the music and dancing.

Music:

Mariah, Mariah, Mariah!!! I love her music, her songs, her words, her melodies, everything! She has been my favorite since she first came out with "Vision of Love" back in 1990!I also love Prince - he is a musical genius, Bon Jovi, Christina Aguilera, Rihanna and Q-Tip - just to name a few. I love Hip Hop and R & B; plus some music from the 80's and 90's.

Movies:

I LOVE chick flicks - The Sweetest Thing is my all time favorite, Serendipity, The Wedding Singer, Mean Girls, Sweet Home Alabama, My Best Friend's Wedding, The Notebook, Dirty Dancing, Sixteen Candles, Love Jones, and so on...(I am sure you get the picture). The Notebook - one of my favorites!!!

Television:

Desperate Housewives, Grey's Anatomy, Ugly Betty, October Road, 30 min Meals with Rachel Ray, Sex and the City and re-runs of Friends. mspobj type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="never" allowNetworking="internal" height="0" width="0" data="http://www.../antaneyyyy/..

Books:

I read US Weekly and Life & Style religiously.

Heroes:

My loving mother Mechelle - she is no longer with us, but her sweet and gentle ways makes her the "mother" of all mothers. She lived for her children, striving to provide for us the best she could; I can honestly say we never went without. And being a single mother, she did the best she could with raising my brother and I, supporting us even when she knew we weren't necessarily making the right decisions.I respected her opinions, listened to her advice and learned from her mistakes. And with that, I will always consider her my hero. Love you Mom!My beautiful mother Mechelle - now you know where I got my looks...I got them from my mama.Random photos of my brother and I when we were babies. We were just adorable...

Perfection on a hanger...

When I went to SF yesterday, I had absolutely no idea what was in store for me.  I knew I would be meeting with Emily - a potential photographer referred to me by Nikki, and I knew I would be try...

As the aroma of the chicken and cheese taquitos, buffalo wings, and pot stickers filled the air, I waited anxiously for 5 pm.  Although Saturday, August 26th was the day of my spa party, its dire...

Okay, so I have been thinking...Wayne and I have yet to have our house warming party, and here it is already 3 months after we bought our home...so, instead of doing a traditional house warming party,...
