I think I am a pretty complex person to understand. I have a severe case of OCS (only child syndrome)...lol! I usually don't like large crowds. My preference is to be alone or with my closest family and/or friends. I have a very keen sense of discernment. It normally doesn't take very long b4 I know if u are 1 that I can relate to, tolerate in small increments, or would rather avoid altogether! My favorite place to be is in my bed (I have THE most comfortable sealy posturepedic pillowtop mattress ever made)! I'm like a book that has a nice cover, and perhaps when u read the synopsis, you are not sure that it interests you...but once u get into it, u can't put it down! I also share many of the same qualities as a rose: delicate and pleasant to look at, but will prick you and make you shed blood if handled the wrong way! I have a really strange sense of humor, heavy on the sarcasm. Although I am not confrontational, I am big on clarity and resolution...so any areas of concern will be addressed and handled accordingly. I am the master of quick wit! My biological family is small and intimate, and so is my circle of friends. Though, my biological family is small and intimate, my church family is not (small). I have been a faithful member of Greater St. Stephen Full Gospel Baptist Church, one of the largest churches in the country, for the last 13 years. I have been a part of the Music Ministry since day 1 and I am currently part of the Praise and Worship Team at our New Orleans location. My pet peeves include: smacking while eating, dirty nails, improper undergarments, not washing hands after bathroom visits, poor hygiene habits, and last but certainly not least...ATTENTION SEEKING BEHAVIOR!
