That's just my preference

About Me

My all time favorite part from Eddie Murphy's stand-up Delerious! Still cracks me up!
I'm just a brown kid who lives up to the "smart Asian" stereotype. Born in Barbados, was a military brat growing up - moved every 2 years (and STILL seem to do a lot of moving!)...so I'm used to change and absolutely love traveling and experiencing different cultures. For those of you who are wondering, I am Filipino, German, English, Portuguese, Chinese, and Spanish :o) Yep that's a lot!
I'm goofy, fun, outgoing, mostly low-maintenance, an Aries, a smart-ass, "sometimes" bossy, but I do have my "I dunno...whatever you want to do..." moments. I tend to start home projects and never finish before moving onto something else - I think I have project ADD. Also have mad skills in tongue rolling, nostril flaring, toe flexing, and ear wiggling.
Love spending time with friends & family; eating LOTS of sushi; wine and coffee, cooking, and dancing..and I'm not afraid of being a big dork on the dance floor either (remember all those old school 90's dance moves? I tend to bust out and do 'em when the mood strikes, so be prepared!). I'm a cat AND dog lover. Summer and winter are my favorite seasons - especially hot tropical island summers and snowy winters - an "island girl" who loves skiing up in the mountains (next up, gotta try snowboarding!). I'm an outdoorsy kinda gal who also loves everything about the city,except for the traffic.
Am Christian. God's REAL and I choose to live like he's real, though I'm not perfect at it (who is? Only Jesus!). I hope to be a little spot of light in this dark world.

I love the outdoors - Hiking, Biking, Running, Skiing, Camping. Also Interior design, Travel, Art, Drawing, Singing, playing piano, shopping, any kind of get together that includes dancing, drinking, eating, and some friendly competition in games or sports.

I'd like to meet:

I'm here for friends, old and new!

Music:

All kinds. I love 80's and Old School 90's music from back in the day, Pop, Hip/Hop, Rap, Dance, Trance/House, Rock, Alternative, Country, Oldies, New Age, Classical, Contemporary Christian, some Heavy Metal, Brazilian/Latin, Reggae...the list is endless.

Movies:

I love comedies that make me laugh so hard I (almost!) pee my pants! Also Action, Thrillers, Sci Fi with a good storyline and kick-ass special effects. And Fantasy because I'm still a kid at heart :o)

Television:

Grey's Anatomy, Heroes, The OC, Ugly Betty...the Discovery Channel, Animal Planet, Food Network and The Travel Channel.

Books:

I like escaping into good Sci-Fi or Fantasy but I also love all the classics.

Heroes:

Jesus. Anyone who gives up their life to save someone else's, there is no greater love!
