My Interests

Fashion is the love of my life. He is demanding requires alot of sacrifice, we don't always see eye to eye, almost every woman wants him, but I wouldn't trade him for the world. You gotta wonder why we cling to expectation the expected is the begining, the expected is just what keeps us steady standing still. The unexpected is what changes our lives....Who is the judge? The judge is GOD...Why is he GOD? Because he decides who wins or loses not my opponent....Who is your opponet? He/She does not exist...Why doesn't he/she exist? Because he/she is a mere dissenting voice of the truth I speak!!!courtesy of QianaNichol

I'd like to meet:
