If you wanna know about me, here it is:
About Me
Born in Manila, Philippines (Taguig province) on February 18th, 1987. I'm the 2nd oldest in my family. I have three brothers: Isaiah , Cris , and J.R. . I have no sisters, but I just wish I had one! Mostly raised by my parents, Noel and Annabelle, and my favorite aunt in the whole wide world, Tita Lucy aka. "Mamang", from the Philippines. In 1995, I moved to San Francisco where I reside now. I still have the same struggles like back home in the Philippines, but I manage to live with it.
My Poetry
I began writing poetry in 2004, and the early works of my poems were horrible. Ever since, I have been improving. Most of the poems I been doing I just do it on top of my head. Whatever comes into my mind, I just do it. Right now, I'm currently working on a poetry series called, "The Mind Of Tha Pat DRE". It used to be called "All About Me: The Story Of My Life", but I decided to change it, so that it fits into the theme. Poetry is my passion, and with a help from all of you, I made it this far into doing the poems I've been doing. Remember, writing poems is all about writing something on whatever pops in your head.
MC/Rapper
Besides writing poetry, I began rapping this year. My other brothers, Cris and J.R. are well-known MC's/rappers in my family. Eventually, I will be the 3rd one in the family that can rap. Although I'm new to rapping, I feel like I have the potential to do so.
Hobbies
I'm an avid video gamer, and I loved it since I was born! I also love hi-tech stuff b/c I'm always into stuff that makes life much easier. Computers are in my blood! Started going into computers since I was 8. Imagine that! A kid that loves computers! Other than that, I'm also a person that likes to hang out although I don't go out often as much as my brothers. I gotta get out of the habit of staying home too much! Nothing is good without sports! Basketball, baseball, football, tennis, ping-pong, swimming, bowling, and billiards. Those are the sports I play all the time. I may NOT be good at it, but at least I'm having fun.
MC's, poets, Filipino organizations, and ppl that I've known from the past. BTW, I'm a person that likes to meet new ppl like you. If you have questions, see the FAQ above.
I would like to thank these ppl:
Jesus
It's plain and simple, he gaves all life to live. Without him, all of us would not be here!
The Lim Family
Mom, Dad, Isaiah, Cris, and Kuya J.R., thanks for raising me since day 1. There's no way that I will live if it wasn't for all of you!
The Cousins
There's too many to list down! Same as above.
Burton Class of '05
I got hella good friends over there! There's no way that I was able to graduate, so I can go to college without your help!
My Good Friends @ SFSU
I can't enjoy going there without you guys. When I have breaks between classes, I'll always hang out with all of you. Anyways, thanks for being my friend!
PYC San Mateo County
The 1st club I joined ever. If I had joined Mabuhay Club when I was @ Burton, this would've been the 2nd club I joined instead. They're like family to me. Andrew and Marielle were the two ppl that informed me about PYC, and I quickly join the club b/c I knew that it was gonna be a fun club to join! You know what, let's all hang out sometime! I'll hit you all up on all the upcoming shows that Self-Axis is gonna put it up. Much love from all of you!
ALAY
Anthony aka. PELE introduce my brothers and I to ALAY. At 1st, joining two clubs/organizations would be a pain in the ass for me, but it's actually not. My schedule fits well with the meetings with PYC and with ALAY. In fact, working with two clubs/organizations would be fun. Not only I get to meet with more new ppl, but it also makes me involved with the community more. I just wanna thank Anthony aka. PELE for informing us about this club/organization.
