About Me


My D.R. Bog

Not On My Friend List? Just Passing Through? Leave Me A Comment Here



About me? I'm Shelita but my family calls me Coqui. I went on vaction, fell in love with a country, adopted a village in Puerto Plata, now I'm addicted to making a cloudy day bright!

I've been known 2 B pretty down to earth. I've always loved being tha good samaritan. Although I never seem to have all the necessities I need to make my own life complete, I get so much pleasure giving to those less fortunate. It gives my heart a warm fuzzy feeling....

I recycle the garbage of the "Elite" areas of NYC (Tribecca, Chelsea, Yorkville Upper Eastside of Manhattan) You'd be surprised at the treasures one can find on Central Park West! I also collect 2nd hand clothes from family and friends, wash and pack them and... 2 - 3 times a year I go to The Dominican Republic and distribute everything to a poor village I've adopted in Puerto Plata . Co-workers, family and friends always tell me I have a good heart and I'm a "Special Person". I don't see it... I'm just being ME! Remember: ONE PERSON'S TRASH IS ANOTHERS TREASURE & A LOLLIPOP CAN MAKE A CLOUDY DAY BRIGHT IN THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC... My mottos

2 know me is 2 love me... 2 love me is 2 keep it REAL @ all times... I hate dis-honest, full'a shit people.... Don't mistake my kindness for being dumb, cuz you might not like what I have 2 say.

I grew up in Alphabet City in the projects on the Lower Eastside of New York City. Yesterday (back then in childhood) I thought I was POOR, 2day I realize that I was just UNGRATEFUL.



My Interests

Traveling, The Internet, Music, and Work - cuz I have 2 work 2 survive. Everyone should experience the barrios of a 3rd world country. You will appreciate the little you have, and return very HUMBLE.

Oh By the way, the very humble Coqui also likes meeting folks and interacting on the internet, writting poetry, listening to music, building web pages... ya know all that good stuff...Lets just say a sista is creative... Ya heard? Oh did I mention I like blogging?

I'd like to meet:

1.) A dentist willing 2 GIVE me a Mariah Carey smile, so I can stop hiding my laughter behind my hand!

2.) People who REALLY want to SAVE THE CHILDREN, and not be caught up in making donations to some bogus charity where you don't see where you $$$ R going.. If U REALLY want to give... get on a plane and take the experience yourself! ONE ON ONE!

3.) Oprah Winfrey so I can ask to borrow a couple Mill! Gotta pay that dentist eventually! Nothing in life is FREE!

Is it Bcuz he's Dominican.. Or is he just 2 fucking Sexy! Hurry Up And Get That DIVORCE Manny! I'll Wait 4 U

Am I Friendly? Ya Got 2 Add Me And Find Out!
