EUROPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! - Where you at!??! :) See ya'll when I get back!!

About Me

"Being a feminist means knowing I am just as attractive when I don't wear makeup, shave, or put on perfume. -jeannine delombard-"
I am truly blessed with the friends and family that I have. Some of the most valuable lessons that I have learned have come from our "growing pains" and I am continuing to grow with them and love them for who they are and for who I am with them. "Life is about creating yourself."
Complacency is not my thing so I try to surround myself in positive thinking, action, and people. Sometimes, I can be really defensive, so support and positive people, tend to usually calm the storm.
I cry during movies. I love to star and cloud gaze as well as go to the beach, people watch and exchange secrets with the ocean.
I love all the seasons; natural colors, turquoise and burnt orange are my favorites.
My heart speaks; all the time.
In times of joy and in times of pain, He makes all things right.
I'm a quotes and sentimental kind of person. I believe there's a reason, a season and a lifetime.
Logic and emotion play games and tricks on me, and sometimes I find them picking fights with me; so I fight back.
It's all in the way I move my hips.
"In life some things are not necessarily wrong, they're just not necessary." - Leo B.
"Remember, there are no mistakes, only lessons. Love yourself, trust your choices, and everything is possible". - Esther M.
Life Lesson No. 15: Do what you love.
“Laugh as much as you breathe and love as long as you live.”
"A friend told me that each morning when we get up we have to decide whether we are going to save or savor the world. I don't think that is the decision. It's not an either-or, save or savor. We have to do both, save and savor the world." - Kate Clinton
Based on that quote, I'm doing both. Welcome to my world.

My Interests

I love my P.I.M.P's, 49ers and the GS WARRIORS!!! BAY AREA BABY!!
I love all expressions of dance and music. I dance with the Waimea Dance Group as well as Ta Mau Tamari'i a Tiare/Na Kamal'i a Kiele. I enjoy outdoorsy things, playing sports and running! Some of my favorites include checking out new restaurants and sharing a meal with someone special (friend, family or foe).
I am an explorer, traveler and am always game to try new things.
People who are of interest to me are fun, motivating people who can teach me a thing or two and keep me captivated by their intelligence, wit, humor, charm and worldly knowledge. However, it all comes down to exchanging positive energy with them. I like reminiscing as well as making and sharing STORIES!
I've recently discovered designer jeans (where have I been?) and when I am able to afford a good comfy pair, or find a good sale, I may be inclined to make a purchase.
I miss going to the beach and listening to the sound of the waves as well as sharing secrets with them. The spray of water from the waves kissing my face, my legs and my body refresh my spirit.
I need to sit down more often and practice the art of breathing and listening to my heart beat. I think reading is food for the soul and I need to finish the book(s) that I've started.
While sitting down and having a cup of coffee or tea I like to people watch, soul speak and strike up conversations. P. I. M. P @ Northridge Invitational's Tournament 2004-2005 CHAMPIONS SHOWTIME 2005 CAL STATE HAYWARD/EAST BAY! PIMP UCR REPRESENT!

I'd like to meet:

People who are positive, who inspire and challenge me, who take risks and are unafraid to show their weaknesses, who make me laugh, exchange positive energy with me and keep me sane.
"A soul connection is a resonance between two people who respond to the essential beauty of each other's individual natures, behind their facades, and who connect on a deeper level. This kind of mutual recognition provides the catalyst for a potent alchemy. It is sacred alliance whose purpose is to help both partners discover and realize their deepest potentials. While a heart connection lets us appreciate those we love just as they are, a soul connection opens up a further dimension- seeing and loving them for who they could be, and for who we could become under their influence."
-- John Welwood in "Love and Awakening: Discovering the Sacred Path of Intimate Relationship

Music:

I listen to jus about EVERYTHING. From country to classical, you name it! Whatever makes me skip, sing, shake or sway!

Movies:

Ones that make me laugh and snort noodles out of my nose, and those that make me think and cry in the first 60 secs (haha) wait..those are Tagalog movies!! I don't know at this point...I'm a sponge....so I just..watch...

Television:

Grey's Anatomy, Desperate Housewives, 24, Nip Tuck, Friends, Will and Grace, Law and Order: SVU, WB Shows, cooking and decorating shows. BUT, I haven't been watching a whole lot of it lately - which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Books:

I love all kinds of books! Especially the ones that are passed on to me by my friends.A few from the library of faves are: Any Ethnic Studies type books, All about Love and Her Wild American Self (in the process), Echoes of the Soul, Mastery of Love, The Alchemist as well as any by Maya Angelou. My list could go on and if you'd like to add to my library jus let me know!

Heroes:

On a personal level: my mom.On a more general note...WOMYN, CHILDREN, YOUNG PEOPLE and ALL of the LOVEs in my life whom inspire me everyday... Those who struggle and continuously battle against injustices...
