About Me


I love my family and my friends. I will go to the end of the earth for people I care about. I may not be able to save the world, even though sometimes I want to try. But I've got two shoulders and they are there for any friend or family that needs them. MY MOTTO: God wouldn't have given you maracas if he didn't want you to SHAKE THEM!!!!!
