About Me


You've come from far and wide
GENERATE YOUR OWN WORLDMAP NOW!
And, yes you've reached the one and only
A true people person and natural born leader, I'm a DICHOTOMY of optimism and pessimism - silly and serious - creative and logical - dorky and cool - conceit and humility. I'm open-minded, outgoing, animated and generally a very up-beat, happy and positive person.
They say GENIUS and MADNESS are separated by a hairline so I guess I'M A BIT MAD by default. Basically, I'm a whole lot of things but only one thing that really matters: BEAUTIFULLY HUMAN.
I turn Oxygen into Carbon Dioxide with the furnace burning in my chest and my heart does more than just pump blood...
An Intelligent, laid-back, altruistic, fun-lovin', world-travelin', move-makin', history-learnin', philosophizin', theorizin', joke crackin' wom(b)an who's all about living life and taking advantage of ALL it has to offer.
I'm kinda refined in some ways, but don't get it twisted I was

I love the 'hood and my peeps - NO DOUBT!
