About Me


Hi, I'm Ricky. I grew up in Lodi, CA, a small town with big drama. But now, I've moved on and now live in San Diego. I just graduated from SDSU, about to move into a house with two of my best friends, and embark on my event planning/pr/ media relation’s career with a killer company. It's my chance to make it all happen, in the one city known for its pristine sandy beaches and near to perfect weather.

My Interests

non-fat vanilla lattes, smell of clean clothes, firm hand shakes, buffalo wings, cuba libre's, getting a cute buzz going not a fucked up belig train wreck, firm believer of the secret, meeting people who have goals, im a complex person, i feel people only know about 10% of me, the other 90% yerns to be undiscovered by some, humbleness, making waffles, a ha's 'take on me', i collect allure's, being uncensored, yoga, writing blogs, reading anything, sometimes i miss the old me, wearing my glasses instead of contacts, tiramisu, emergen-c is a life saver, at heart im a homebody, awkward situations, real genuine smiles instead of myspace ones are priceless, annunciation is becoming routine, i still wonder why i have fat cheeks, i always wonder when i will see someone again, recognizing my ability to empathize is my best quality instead of a weakness, cutting my nails straight across, bronzer, red wine, the "geez" moments, vitamin water, realizing leg hair is ok, possible addiction to tattoo's, horchata, oldies soothe the soul, the smell of menudo on sunday mornings when i was young, going home to a nice comfortable bed, the "haha bitch you cut me off and we still meet at the light" when driving moment, giving compliments, hitting the snooze button, i believe love is a strong healer, i rather love than be loved, receiving actual mail in the mail box, feeling comfortable in everything i do, taking pictures, smiling like i mean it, being goofy is hott, being annoying isn't, dancing, and well all the other small things in life

I'd like to meet:

you.

KEEPING MY HEAD UP

'TRUTH AND TIME TELLS ALL.'

Emotions aren't meant to be said rather deeply enrooted and felt. It comes to no surprise that some of those emotions have been getting the best of me lately. For some time I've been feeling inadequat...

PUT EM’ UP.

Someone wise once told me that we must always be vulnerable to pain. We need the pain to truly value what we have but most importantly who we have. A few years ago I thought my pain was ending my lon...

LETS BE HONEST.

People say that the truth comes out when your drunk, I only see the ugly. Some are quiet, some are loud, some are smutty, some are annoying and some are emotional. The truth is that you're a differen...

KEEP ON KEEPING ON.

I'm a nice guy. I get along with almost everyone. I don't like everyone I meet. Some people I meet don't like me. Nor should I get everyone to like me. Life isn't perfect. I'm not perfect.  ...

I'M FINE.

A couple of weeks ago a recap of Grey's Anatomy aired and one segment dealt with being 'fine'. It made so much sense, when you see someone not having a great day, or they seem overwhelmed, or anxious...
