About Me

..
Welcome to my page. I'm Barry, 32, mixed with black/native american/asian, 5'9 195lbs from the 31O (Carson/San Pedro). I'm a father of a beautiful babygirl who inspires me to be a better person. I got my BS in engineering a few years ago from Long Beach State. I'm easy going, open minded and eclectic. I grew up around Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, Pacific Islanders and Whites. Being mixed, I was like a chameleon fitting in where ever I needed to.
I'm into cars, BMW's in particular since I was 13. Just a passion of mine that keeps me motivated. I love basketball, love the Lakers and love playing. You can find me at just about any court in Torrance/Carson/San Pedro. I try to stay in shape thru running and exercising. I like to read. A lot of times you'll find me on wikipedia just looking up random things and researching. I've always been into music since I was a little kid listening to KDAY, watching Video 1, Yo MTV Raps, Rap City, Pump it up, Friday night videos...you name it. You know, when Hip Hop was about something. But I didn't just listen to Hip Hop, I listened to Heavy Metal, Pop, Classic Rock, Reggae, Oldies, whatever. Good music is good music.
I'm a very optimistic person. I'm the type that'll lend a helping hand to those in need sometimes to my own detriment. I tend to put faith in people but I've learned that people will often let you down. I was raised by a very old school single immigrant mother and I'm glad. I always thought she was tough but she prepared me.
There's a lot more to me than a few words can convey. Get to know me.Michael Jackson ...Rest In Peace."Knowing is not enough, we must apply. Willing is not enough, we must do." --Bruce Lee

Expectation vs Hope

Hip Hop

I must be old cuz I just do not get hip hop or should we just call it rap music today.  It went from deep, meaningful, inspiring, conscious music to nothing but simple minded lyrics, hooks, mediocre b...

Coincidence or Karma? When i was in Vegas this lady told me to play a slot machine that she had chosen saying that I would win on it.  Skeptical, I took my voucher for $11.00 over to the $1 slot machi...

What is success?

What is success? I think a lot of people these days forget what is truly important for one reason or another.  I don't think success is how much money you can make in little time although everyone has...

Broke, but still happy?

How can that be? I guess it just goes to show that money isn't everything.  Now that school is out for winter, I can relax and rest my mind, my body and get back to the things I cherish and enjoy...

A few words about prejudice...

Today is a sad day.  I can`t believe the ignorance of some people.  You`d think that people get smarter and wise with time, which is true but they also tend to hold on to the past.  It`...
