About Me

About me:"The minute you settle for less than you deserve is when you get even less than you settled for"
"Do what you want and say what you think, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind" ~ Dr.Seuss
"You must acquire the trick of ignoring those who do not like you. In my experience, those who do not like you fall into two categories: The stupid and the envious … the stupid will like you in five years time. The envious, never."~ The Libertine
"Life is not about finding yourself, it's about creating yourself""There are certain risks in life you MUST take, just in order to effectively define your person""Am I an ass for telling the truth,or for the way I deliver it?"I grew up in the Maryland, Washington DC, Northern Virginia area mostly ... lived twice in Miami along with several other places/ states. I was born in NY and so is all of my family. We are all New Yorkers in some way, shape or form.I've been living in Orlando,Fl for a while now.I like to be on the go but I know how to also savor the down times too. I love my friends. I love my family. I love my dog Brae(Bray).I love animals alot and show compassion for them. I like to laugh and have a good time.I love to meet new intresting people. Sometimes I tell it like it is ... and I can be blunt about it if I need to be. I have an off beat sense of humor and sometimes I'm totally weird. I am very passionate about my interests and things important to me. I'm kind of wild and crazy at times.I love spontaniety! Traveling is awesome and I love to experience other cultures and food! Concerts are a passion of mine. Sushi,Vietnamese,Italian,Japanese,Greek and French are my favorite foods. Purple is by far my favorite color, turquoise is a close second. I like to think I am eclectic in music and in my belongings. I love makeup artistry of all kinds. I have a thing for Chinese dragons,Fu Dogs and Asian art. I like 2 seater cars ... just enough room for me and my dog ... Well,unless it's a muscle car ... which in that case, I have a huge thing for as well.
