About Me

Hello... I'm 27 yrs. old, happy married and a big nerd. I love learning, reading, and constanting expanding my knowledge of the world. I'm a true optimist and usually have a positive outlook on life. I cherish and love my family and friends and am not quick to bring new people into my inner circle. I'm moody (although I've improved over the years) and know how to rip someone a new one when the need be :-)I edited my profile at Freeweblayouts.net , check out these Myspace Layouts!

My Interests

Reading non-fiction, ethnic books, or fiction that could be real. Also the NY Times and other on line news items. I am very interested in politics and am very liberal. I think the Bush Administration is full of a bunch of self interested assholes. I love going to the movies and am most impressed by films that touch the soul. I love catching up with friends and when I watch TV I prefer to see scandalous reality shows like "Flava of Love" :-) I also love traveling and do not get to do it as often as I'd like.

I'd like to meet:

I'd love to reconnect with old friends.

Music:

My all time favorites are: PEARL JAM, Tori Amos, old Hole, NIN, and Rage. I also love Tracy Chapman, Nina Simone, Gypsy Kings, Kanye West, Common, Black Eyed Peas, Rijardo Arjona, Yierba Buena, Juanes, and a true Puerto Rican can't forget to give props to Marc Anthony :-)

Movies:

Brokeback Mountain. Breakfast Club, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, The Lost Boys, Knotting Hill, Real Women Have Curves, Old School, Hot Chick, Hotel Rwanda, Batman Begins, Something's Gotta Give, Spanglish, Farenheit 911, Million Dollar Baby, Runaway Jury, etc. etc.

Television:

I Love New York - ghetto at its best. Nick at Nite series-Roseanne, Cosbys, Fresh Prince. Sex and the City and Friends reruns.

Books:

Possessing the Secret of Joy (it's what made me want to study anthropology), Native Son, The Prisoner's Wife, Daughter, Caramelo, Dude Where's My Country, The 911 Commission Report, Memoirs of a Geshia, Lies My Teacher Told Me, The Alchemist, This Bridge Called My Back etc. etc.
