About Me


i'm not a fighter, i'm a LOVER.
i'm not a hater, i'm a HIPPIE.
I'M HEART & SOUL.
i'm not a bitch, i don't think its cool to be, nor do i care to waste my time on small minds. instead, i am kind and civil to people. but if i can't be, then i simply just don't associate with them.
wasted poison, this life of mine
I listen as well as I speak.
Generous with my posessions and at times my heart. On the surface, I may have become a NY snob, but when it comes to matters of human behavior I am vastly open-minded, and not faint-of-heart.
C'mon, Take a Bite of that Apple, Walk with Me in the Garden of Eden
I was first introduced to the City during college. By graduation I'd grown attached to the life, so I never left. I have not lived at home since I was 17 - that independence has both excelled and doomed me. The years have left me flawed & scarred but have built my character and hightened my senses.
I'm an only child and was a misfit thru grade school. This combination forced me to function as fiercely independent and deeply observe human behavior. I know I'm no beauty. So I learned to work my surroundings, and developed a taste for the exotic. This led to a wild, intense state of living. I've turned nights into days and immersed myself in the vivid characters and chaos around me.
My life's path is riddled with mistakes, let's hope I came out a bit wiser. There'll be more mistakes to come. The heart wants what the heart wants - that mistake repeats for life.
If I can help out a friend or even stranger then I've had a better day.
The truth may hurt, but it's better to know, and I can take pain. Sometimes I even find pleasure in pain. I find comfort in the City, it serves as my companion and confidante. I am a New Yorker; that is a defining trait of my lifestyle.
"She was as tough and romantic as the city she loved. Behind her blue eyes was the coiled sexual power of a jungle cat. New York was her town.” - woody allen

My Interests

My taste in music, lifestyle & people is ecclectic & cutting edge. Further details are extraneous.

I'd like to meet:



I look for the goodness in others, and I thirst, often in vain, for the wisdom. I smile to myself when I see either.

Small talk & small minds really don't impress me a bit. So at times, I'm quite the loner.

the city never sleeps full of villains & creeps

Music:



My taste in music reflects my lifestyle: ecclectic. From high-end to seedy.

I feel ROCK, so gorgeous & human (DOORS, FleetwoodMac, LinkinPark, Greenday...).

I listen closely to RAP (Ghost, Rza, Papoose, Nas, JZ, Big, Em).

I Party to 80's (WhiteLines, Ride the White Horse, West End Girls, Cruel Summer, White Wedding...)

But I'm in heaven w/ DANCE/HOUSE music. Brings me right back to the dance floor at Limelight '95/96. Tunnel '97/98. Twylo (Jr. Vasquez) '97/98. Sound Factory (J. Peters) '97/98/99. Space, SoBe WMC (Tiesto, Cox, Tenaglia, Morillo, Boris)

...and every other moment I was ever SET FREE on a dance floor by the sweet synthetic sounds taking over my body, infusing my soul with pure energy, as I gave in to the power of the BEAT.

Movies:



Top 10: Scarface, Sideways, Sat. Night Fever, Pulp Fiction, Casino, Kill Bill, KIDS, 25th Hour, 9 1/2 Weeks, Requiem for a Dream

honorable mention: Jesus is Magic, Dracula, Godfather, American Beauty, Indecent Proposal, Lost In Translation, Taxi Driver, Natural Born Killers, Tru Romance, Cruel Intentions, Bronx Tale

And the Indies...on late at night when I cant sleep. Wierd, coming-of-age, introspective, reflective looks at life.

Television:

NEWS all day...NY-1, CNN, BBC. History Chnnl, Dateline, 60 minutes

TV Sopranos, Sex/City, Seinfeld, Golden Girls, Will&Grace

VH-1...everything.

FRIENDS. I luv the episode when Ross realizes that Pheobe robbed him outside of St. Marks Comics when they were 13, but she saved his Science Boy comic. Every time I pass St. Mark's Comics I think of that.

Fashion Shows

Books:

The book of my adolescence: DECADE'S PERSPECTIVE

Heroes:

Mom. Part best friend, but all mother; and I still need to be mothered. My muse for grace & goodness; you give meaning to my otherwise futile existence. The only pure and honest thing in my world. I wish I knew you in your youth, so we could be friends then. Were you like me?

Daddy RIP. If I have any honor & loyalty, its from knowing a great man like you. You loved me to death & worked so hard just to see me smile. Because of you I had everything, even though you came from nothing. I should've told you I understood. I should've thanked you more. I owed you that peace of mind; you deserved to know that I knew the kind of man you were. Just as I was beginning to see that they don't make 'em like you anymore, you were gone. I'll never get to tell you now. I'm so sorry, daddy.
