Hmmm...I get bored easily so I love doing anything and everything that is interesting and fun, but to narrow it down I love to travel--so far I've been to Brazil, England, France, Canada, Dominican Republic, Jamaica (my country) and many states within the US...trust me with God's help this list will continue to grow. I'm an ex soccer player, love the sport, played for 16 yrs...now its time to do something else, lol. I like hanging out with my closest friends and family, going on vacations, partying every now and then, or just sitting at home chatting and acting stupid. I also love to learn new languages and cultures--I'm studying Spanish and Italian, and I hope to learn Portuguese, French, and Chinese in the future. In a year I will hopefully be accepted to law school, specializing in either international, corporate, or real estate law. A career in law has been a dream of mine for a long time and I cannot wait to get started. Basically, my goal in life is to challenge myself and prove to everyone who does not believe in me that I really am the shit! Hmm what else...I love dogs and I miss my baby Pattie very much. I used to love reading for fun, but college took that joy away from me. So in my spare time I chill with fam and friends, shop til I drop, watch tv and sleep.
I've always wanted to meet my ancestors...to go back in time and see how my family came to be. This is obviously impossible, but I would love to look in the past and see where I came from...
2007...we takin over baby!
First and foremost I love Reggae and Dancehall (best music in the world). One of my fav albums of all time is Sizzla Khalonji's "The Real Thing" because the lyrics are just so uplifting and positive and it reminds of the summer I spent in Jamaica before going off to college...some of the best times of my life. I also listen to rap, hip-hop, some alternative, big fan of R&B sappy love songs...big Mariah Carey fan b/c that girl can blow. I love Joss Stone, Keisha Cole, Jah Cure, and Kelis. Weezy F. Baby please say the baby is my fav rapper, the nigga just got it like that...what else can I say?!
I like movies that make me laugh or touch my heart and make me cry. I absolutely hate scary movies cuz they make me paranoid at night and give me nightmares...but sometimes, being the dare devil that I am, I'll watch one or two to see if I can handle it...of course I never do lol
I don't watch tv anymore really unless its CNN or a movie. I've realized as you get older, you tend to want to do more productive things with your life than sit in front of the tv and watch show after show...it get kinda boring
The Color Purple...a beautiful story of love and life
My number 1 hero is my mother Veronica Patricia Parkins, may her soul rest in peace. Words can never capture the woman that she was so I will not even attempt to explain why she is my hero...all I know is she has shown me the greatest love of my life. I feel truly blessed to be her daughter and I am forever greatful for the life lessons she has taught me.
~RIP 5/5/53-12/15/05~When you left a part of me left with you...I won't be whole until we meet again. Love you always and forever Mamita.
In keeping with God's promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, the home of righteousnesses. So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless, and at peace with Him.
2 Peter 3:13-14 NIV
Me.
Just me. Wilful
woman. As much have I of life
as I asked for. She's given me everything.
Tremendous strength
from then until now.
No storm has blown over
my trunk, nor exposed my roots to the air:
My branches? There they are:
Multiplied, flowering.
Fountain of love and life
am I.
-Maria de los Reyes Castillo Bueno
