Creating a new mindset, building my character, and learning everyday

About Me

I am a spunky, funky, artsy, analytical, open-minded, liberal- but objective- politically motivated chick. I have strong opinions and beliefs on many things, and yet am open enough to hear your point of view, and digest it's potential meaning. I like to drink beer & dance it off, cook up yummy vegan food, watch current tv and learn interesting things, read books on how to create social change and f**k BABYLON, and listen to reggae music with a special cig hangin' outa my mouth. Im fun, Im real, and I can have an in depth conversation on just about anything. I have a brain and I know how to use it damnit! Check out my new blog at http://workingclassnews.blogspot.com/
