I am here for Friends

About Me

Take me to a far away land... where all there is, is sunshine.
Name: Kristal.. walks on sunshine even in the rain.
Location: My heart resides where the beach waves roar, but my arse is hibernating here in sin city.
I don't know where life will take me, but wherever it does, as long as it's where my ♥ wants to be.
Ethnicity: FILIPINO, German, Spanish, Irish, Scottish, English, American.
Status: INFATUATED. =)
Smoke: I love life. Why destroy it?
Drink: Hardly, but a nice cocktail would be nice.
Religion: Christian.
Occupation: Future Editor in Chief.
Here for: Feeding an addiction.
I am NOT a what you see, is what you get type of girl. I'm pretty complicated, and there are only a few who can really tap into me. Some try as hard as they can, but they'll never truly get it. I'm a firm believer in embracing your flaws, for it's your imperfections and shortcomings that helps you pave your own road. At times I drive people crazy, hell- I drive my own self mad, but if you're lucky enough to enter my world and become a part of me, you'll know how hard I love and how deeply I care. I stay open-minded, and I try to learn as much as I can. There's nothing better than trying something new and loving every minute of it. I'll take a bullet for those I care about, and I expect nothing less of myself. I believe wholeheartedly in being the better person because I NEVER give anyone the ammunition to break me or use anything against me. I can be a bit of a tomboy- I'll play football with you anytime, anyday. Nothing thrills me more than deep conversations, so let's talk about the arts, global issues, design, music, architecture or LIFE, and I'll love you forever. There's nothing better than laughing when there's nothing to laugh about, and there's nothing more grand than knowing that life isn't about being perfect- it's about accepting and loving your own imperfections while trying your
damn hardest to earnestly better yourself.
So, I'm Kristal.
And you will NEVER forget me.
Come take a stroll with me, I'll show you what life's about.
I find it funny how people instantaneously gravitate to me, what I do, who I am, etc. when they say they want nothing to do with me. Typical girl, I'm far from it. I'm your "dream. dream. dream. do. do. do." type of girl. I spend a lot of time mouthing off what I want and what I desire. But don't take my verbal wishes for granted- when I say I want something, I sure as hell will do everything to get it. I don't wait for someone to give it to me- what's the joy in that? To some I may be shy, to others I am the loudest son of a bitch they've ever heard. I believe there's three kinds of people. There are those who truly try to seek meaning and purpose in their lives, and those that are just sitting back waiting for something- anything to happen. Then there are those that sit somewhere in the middle- they have an idea of what they want, but they're too afraid to fight for it. I choose my relationships wisely. I don't like to waste time with people who mean nothing to me. I forgive easily when I'm angry, but I have the hardest time forgetting when I've been HURT. I am a hard ass when I need to be, but my compassion takes the leading role in some situations. My heart is nowhere near cold. As much as I'd like to think that my past is what shaped me to become who I am today, I know damn well that I am responsible for becoming ME. Best believe- I am giving myself a pat on the back for that. I am slowly evolving into a deeper state of consciousness in regards to my life, and I refuse to live my life on auto pilot. I've said it once before: Hate me or love me, once you've been a part of me, you will NEVER forget me.

I'd like to meet:



And she has said it best..

I'm selfish, impatient, and a little insecure.
I make mistakes, I am out of control, and at times hard to handle,
but if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.
- Marilyn Monroe

NEVER did I say I was PERFECT, or that I am living a PERFECT life. I am not afraid to admit that I am HUMAN, I FEEL, I AM, I FALL, I HURT, I STRIVE. But it just goes to show you, I am capable of doing everything and anything I say I WILL do. Nothing's changed about me.. I'm just a lot stronger than I thought, and indeed, I love every bit of what makes me... IMPERFECT. ♥ kristal

the written word and I are like this...

A leather bound journal &
a good ink pen is all I need.
♥, your future editor in chief.


Words to live by...

When I say I can, I do, when I say I will, I already have. © kristalramos

Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish, in lonely frustration for the life you deserved, but have never been able to reach. Check your road and the nature of your battle. The world you desired can be won. It exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours. © Ayn Rand

In the meadows of my own dreams, I reminisce upon a time when simplistic details were the core of my being. I can not, easy as it may seem, to abandon those thoughts, for it brings me back to a time when I suffered most but felt the happiest.Ironic, I know. Contradictory, so it seems. Hypocritical, maybe.Whatever it is, my life has evolved into a majestic sort of emotional web. Tangled, not so, but in tact? Yes, indeed.I love that it's mine, and I love that I'm in control. It's my story my friends, only mine. I have great people in it; wonderful and irreplaceable people who bring me priceless positivity.My thoughts fill the spaces between the interactive cyber world of myspace. Not so much personal information, more so information needed to be shared, for the thoughts of the aristocrats, the scholars, the philosophers, the heroes and inventors did not make it on print without the openness of their minds and the bearing of their soul. © KristalRamos
