About Me


I created my own profile using nUCLEArcENTURy.COM and you should too!
I'm a laid back, friendly, outgoing, open-minded, positive individual.
I'm a strong person. Life has dealt me plenty of wild cards, but I get through. I let no obstacle get in the way of my happiness. I'm focused on today and my future. If you take care of today, tomorrow will take care of itself. Life is too short to complain about the things you can't change. Learn from the mistake and move on. I'm multi-talented, diverse, and intelligent. I am a sweetheart, really. I'm caring, thoughtful, and generous. I'm loyal, trustworthy, and dedicated. I'm smart, sophisticated, and outspoken. I'm God fearing, family oriented, and understanding. I'm funny, witty, sassy, and sarcastic. I can be patient, eager, and driven. I am very perceptive, well-mannered, optimistic, loving, wonderful and a whole lot more.
I believe no one is perfect and everyone makes mistakes.
I believe in the power of prayer and a closer relationship with God.
I believe life is what you make it, so stop blaming others for your problems.
I believe in myself.
I believe that NOT all men are DOGS(there ARE some good ones).
I believe that whatever goes around comes around.
I believe optimism is key to a better life.
A poem..."The Broken Balance" Once I was whole
But now, I'm broken apart
Torn to shreds with every beat of my heart
The tank is on empty
But I have no fuel
When will it be full again?
I share my thoughts but I don't get what I need in exchange
I thought about it, and still I made that mistake
Suffering from a self-broken heart
Who knew that I could hurt myself so much?
In the back of my mind, I yearn for affection
The feeling of love satisfied
But the emotion has died
When will I be whole again?
I want to reach out, but I can't
Can't decide, my mind won't let me decide
From fear of a lost life, all I do is hide
Trying to be careful, trying to be fearless
Trying to be bold, trying to be cautious
Wanting so hard to analyze
At the same time not being able to realize
A human mistake is all it takes to tear me apart
But love is all it takes to mend a broken heart
Hey ya'll, Check this out!

My Interests

I enjoy playing sports(for fun), watching sports, playing video games(racing and combat games in particular). I enjoy being with my family and friends. I love bike riding, swimming, museums, boxing, horseback-riding(need to do it more often), reading, writing, poetry, art, singing, acting, modeling, and dancing(I love to dance). Any type of outdoor activities including, Amusement Parks, Beaches, Bar-B-Ques, camping(Harpers Ferry/C&O canal), boating, hiking, etc. There's so much more but you would think you were reading my life story or something.

I'd like to meet:

Great, positive people...For the dudes, I'm not here for dating purposes, I'm not interested in getting your number, and I don't wanna give you mine. I don't wanna be your girl, so don't waste your time.

Music:

Music is a form of expression...All music touches me in a different way. I can appreciate all types. My true listening preferences are: R&B, Smooth Jazz, Classic Rock, Alternative, Pop, Latin, Hip-Hop, I love Reggae, Neo-soul, and whatever else sounds good. Some examples: Anita Baker, Sade, Evanescence, My Chemical Romance, Fallout Boy, Rihanna, George Michael, Steve Perry, Celine Dion, Josh Groban, Madonna, Marc Anthony, Shakira, Monchy and Alexandra, Juvenile, Dem Franchize Boyz, Trina, Lil Wayne, UCB, Ziggy Marley, T.O.K., Alicia Keys, Heather Headley, Eryka Badu, and a whole lot more!

Movies:

I like drama, comedy(love to laugh), suspense, thrillers, , chick flicks, action, romantic comedies, and I really like horror flicks...Blockbuster nights are best, especially with someone special.

Television:

Don't get to watch T.V. like that, but when I do...Will and Grace, Girlfriends, BET, Animal Planet, Style Network, MTV Cribs, Music Videos(Love them!), Discovery Channel, TLC, History, TCM(Turner Classic Movies)--You know, I've always loved old films since I was a child. Movies like Gone with the Wind(my favorite), San Francisco, Casa Blanca, Little Women, Women, etc.--Berman and Berman, Lifetime, and sometimes the Oxygen Channel.

Books:

A must read is The Coldest Winter Ever. I read the book a long time ago, but it's just a great book. I enjoy reading fiction and non-fiction books. Not really a romance novel person, unless there's a sex scene..I'm for real! I read anything as long as it's at Barnes and Noble.

Heroes:

Let me first say this. For those who still have your parents--just cherish them. My father, mother, and grandmother are my heroes. They are no longer in this phase of life. I live by what my father expected of me. I live by what my mother taught me. I live by what my grandmother taught me on my way to womanhood. For everything they did for me, I am greatful.
