I am here for Friends

About Me

Well it's time for a new about me for 2007...who am I? I'm complicated and multi-faceted. I am Puerto Rican and Guatemalan. I'm short, funny, smart, independent and strong. I'm BROWN and love it! I'm a cancer survivor (6 years and counting). I'm the proud mom of...well...umm...2...4...6...shit, hella kids, basically. I love to party, but sometimes a quiet nite at home would be great. I work A LOT. I'm a great friend and a terrible enemy. I'm a Little Apple. I try to stay away from the blue wall. I HATE liars, cheaters and bullshitters. I'm a ride or die BITCH. Anything else you wanna know, you know where to find me.

My Interests

I don't even know where to start with the interests...I am into a lot of different things. I love art and music and porn. I love books and chocolate ice cream. I love talking and laughing. I love Coronas and Red bull n Vodka. I am into cooking and baking, but don't mistake me for Betty Crocker. Come on by and chat with me...I'm sure I'll surprise you....

I'd like to meet:

Plain and simple I'd like to meet cool peoples. Laid back folks who love music and dancing. People who might have an intelligent thing to say. Now if you're looking for "the one" or romance or some random fucking...well that's not me. Keep on keepin on...View All Friends | View Blog | View Pics | Add Comment

Music:

I LOVE MUSIC! It is my passion. Can't imagine my life without music. I am into lots of different kinds of music...oldies, R&B, hip hop, old school, reggaeton, dancehall...the list goes on and on. Unfortunately I must draw the line somewhere...can't get down with the country music, death metal and classical...otherwise I'm game! You got something you're into...shoot it over to me!

Movies:

well I love anything with lots of action and bullets and blood and explosions...but I'm so not good at going to the movies..I miss em all....

Television:

I don't watch TV...sorry

Books:

My great addiction...right up there with shoes. I LOVE BOOKS! My baby brother says I need an intervention...I can't help it. "Hi! My name is Maritza and I am addicted..."hmmm anything by Anne Rice, Patricia Cornwell, Jonathan Kellerman, James Patterson, Isabel Allende, Laura Esquivel, Alice Walker, Amy Tan......the list goes on and on. honestly waaaaaaay too many to list here....

Heroes:

Let's see....Wonder Woman....Batman (without Robin)...El Chapulin Colorado....and ummmmm ME! I'm my own damn hero!

My Blog

when?

When did life become more about sadness than about breathing? When was it that I became lost? When did waiting for the RIGHT one become one long arduous struggle? When was it that hope became a scarce...
