About Me

My sister is smarter than yall! Today June 1, 2007 she be graduaratin from U-B Head Start! Yeah she b a pre-school gradurate!!! I never graduated from pre-school:-) Out-smarted by a 4-yr-old (in reality she was smarter than me as a baby, her eyes knew what I can't even imagine).
Own less, live more!!! Really the more you spend, the more you have to work... is stuff really that important that you have trouble finding time doing the things you love?
"i want to love (but to be loved i shalt not ask), i want to learn (to be taught i will, but often without the other's knowledge), to chase dreams, to live life to the fullest, to talk to God, and to strive to see things from every possible view point"- that's my little philosophy on life motto
Well my favorite nickname is Judes because my neighbor and his friends would serenade me with the Beattles' song "Hey Jude". So if you are really cool, that is what you get to call me. I like to help out with charities, explore the world, and dance my way thru life. I want to eventually do emergency foster care again, be a social worker, and keep writing books.
I'm inspired by: "Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and proclaiming WOW----- What a Ride!!!" Author Unknown.
Learned that being comfortable with failure and not fearing looking like a fool have really made anything in my life possible.

I'd like to meet:

I have a problem,I accept everyone, but now have too many friends and can't find the ones I actually know in person... So like I just don't have it in me to delete all the strangers, but for new ones, send a message, so it doesn't get too much more overwhelming. thanxs.
Exploreres, hiking buddies, interesting diverse open-minded people
Fun, good-hearted, creative, talented people that want to get involved in a grassroots program, reopening the Baltimore Hostel and makin it the place to be/ visit.People that agree with www.millenniumcampaign.org's goals.

Television:

"Shittin"- A Tour of Public Restrooms Around the World, "Real life on a Tour Bus"- chillin with Musicians that are Young and Party, but videographer is completely annoying towards musicians- neat personality drama comes out, "Backwards"- follow a man whose quest is to walk in every country, but only backwards, "Dumb Blonde"- are they just beautiful or genious, watchin the beauty that have intelligence skid through life with a smile and a brain, yet no one knows the extent of their brain {i don't watch tv from a tube, but thought the above ideas would be very entertaining}

Books:

Dr. Seusss Oh The Places Youll Go!, Herman Hesses Siddartha, Scott Pecks Road Less Traveled, Rick Joyners Final Quest, Henri J.M. Nouwens Can You Drink the Cup, Ed McGAA/ Eagle Mans Native Wisdom, Henry David Thoreaus Walden, Platos Socrates stories, Noah benSheas Jacob the Baker, Alan Amoss Through the Eyes of Jesus, and The Bible.

Heroes:

My little sister is soooo much cooler than me and can swim better than me... she is only 3. She keeps me humble. My grandma, who could laugh her way through anything and liked rainy days because the flowers needed rain, and Shamear, a young woman I know who has had the hardest life and has always had a heart of gold and the strength to stick to what she believes. TODD SHAW!
“He attacked everything in life with a mix of extraordinary genius and naive incompetence, and it was often difficult to tell which was which.” Douglas Adams this quote makes me smile:-)
