My Interests

Right now, all I have time for is working, occasionally studying and sleeping (and the occasional Sorority activity). Eventually though, I'd like to add the following: reading, swimming, knitting, gardening, running, travelling, spending time with my loved ones and shopping...Some of these things I actually do enjoy when I have time, others -- let's just say I'm working on it ;)

I'd like to meet:

Jesus (but I'm not in a rush on that), my husband, and some other people...

Music:

I like music.Watch T.I., the father of my unborn children, speak out against the charges pending against him!!!...

Movies:

I love New Jack City, Four Brothers, Before Sunset, Paid In Full, and some other stuff...

Television:

I love The Wire! (and I will be turning off the cable the second the ending credits of the last episode run in a few weeks). I also watch the entire Law and Order group of shows, CSI and Ugly Betty.

Books:

I said I love to read, so I have lots of favorite books.
