Hola! Estoy muy feliz que estes aqui leyendo mi pagina! What can I tell you about me? Hmmmm...pues, I can show you better than I can tell you, but just to fill this space I am an outgoing, fun-loving girl who enjoys doing all kinds of different things. I can't think of anything that I won't try at least once. I can have an intense, political debate or be a complete goofball, take your pick, I'm multi-talented. *wink* I speak spanish almost fluently, but not quite. I'm extremely laid back, a little difficult to get along with at times (what Cancer isn't?) but full of energy, spontanaity, and charisma. I'm blunt, honest and open. Treat me well and I'll stay this way. Treat me bad and suffer my wrath (joking.)Simply put, I'm unique and I'm me and that's the only person I know how to be. It's not easy to get to know me, but once you do...you're in there and I will hold you down! I'm strong and I'm independent. I have a good head on my shoulders and I won't take shit from anybody. I speak my mind and voice my opinions...you'll never have to guess at what I'm thinking. What you see is what you get and it's as simple as that.



I have a six year old hija, who is the sweetest little girl I know. She is so independent and grown up, you'd never guess that she's only six just by talking to her! I can't imagine life without her.

I am single and have been for awhile. It's just the way it works I guess. I'm picky, but not too picky. Or maybe I am too picky and that's the reason for me being single, hmmm...I'll ponder the thought, but does it really matter? I am who I am. I have an EXTREMELY low tolerance for bullshit,(blame this on the past men in my life. I don't have time for it, so keep it to yourself. Basically, you can either love me or leave me: those are your choices, lol. Anyway, I'm pretty easy to keep happy, you just have to try. Those who have made the effort and got my attention know that once you get me, you're stuck with me and all my craziness, so proceed with caution! LMAO.
BTW: I'm not going to respond to those men who send me a message saying what they will do to me in certain positions, etc. C'mon, be respectful. If you want to get my attention, come at me with some decency. There isn't a perfect man, or woman, for that matter, in this world, but you have to be respectful. Show me a man who is stronger than me and can dance a little salsa and that's as close to perfection as I'll ask for.
Oh, and I'm not into white tees, gold teeth, MEN who think they're GOING to be rappers, smoking, guns, violence (I could go on, but I'll stop there.) Let me expand a bit on the men who are GOING to be rappers. Please don't sent me a message asking me to go to your page and listen to your music. I'm not interested. I don't even like rap music, therefore my opinion of it will be slightly biased. Here is an example of what NOT to say to me: "What's good lil momma dis da one n da middle wit da braids slidn threw I likes what I'm seeing baby we need to keep in touch an exchange numbers too holla at me aight I know I'd probally become your head doctor" Now, is it me or was punctuation and grammar taught in grade school? This is just rude and I do not respond to such ignorant messages. I need someone with good grammar and who knows how to talk to a lady! NO EXCEPTIONS! Again, this is not personal, just a preference.
Don't mistake my bluntness for bitchiness. I'm just honest. I don't think there's any reason to beat around the bush or play games. Again, that's just unnecessary silliness. And besides, if you don't like what I'm saying, keep it moving:
I'm kind of like Tinkerbell: sassy and moody, but sweet all bundled up into one tiny package (lol.)
What I hate about Myspace: Everyone puts a good amount of energy and effort into their profiles, however the majority of the time, it doesn't get read. Most people glance at the pictures and if they see something they like, they proceed to send a message asking the same questions that have already been answered on the page! READ THE PAGE, that's what it is there for.
Myspace Tweaks What I love about Myspace: Myspace is an amazing networking tool, I have had the opportunity to meet some really down to earth people and reconnect with people from my past whom I thought I would never hear from again.
I will admit, I am AWFUL when it comes to responding to messages. It may take me a couple days, couple weeks, or a couple months. Just remember, it is nothing personal. I will respond(eventually) if you send a message that is actually worth responding to. I don't save people as friends just to have a list of hundreds of people that I do not know. What's the point in that? So, I've added the you-must-know-my-last name and/or email address restriction. I got tired of having all of these new friends request from people I don't even know and who weren't really trying to get to know me. But, if you are trying to get to know me, send me a message...we'll see what sparks.

My Interests

Me encanta la salsa! Dancing salsa is my biggest pastime. I spend a lot of my time practicing and traveling to different congresses and socials just to dance.

Here's me and my ex-dance partner on our first performance(it was a work in progress):
Columbus' 1st Salsa Social:
Social Dancing at the Chicago Congress: I want to spin like her: 06 World Salsa Championships 2nd Pl -On2

I also enjoy reading, writing, traveling(I'll fly just about anywhere), going out to eat(OMG, I LOVE to eat-don't let this little body fool you-food is a good bargaining tool, lol), horseback riding, movies, etc., but I never have the time to do these things, so we'll just leave it at that.

I'm also dabbling in modeling a bit. I'm too short to be America's Next Top Model, but I enjoy taking tasteful, well done pictures nonetheless. I've worked with several great photographers that I connected with right here on Myspace, if you're interested in shooting, drop me a line and maybe we can work something out.

I'd like to meet:

What does my profile say?...it's whatever and therefore I'll meet whomever. I can't expect to really meet a love match on here, can I? That would be random luck which I really don't have. I'm looking to meet anyone who has something positive to offer, especially salseros. I will travel just about anywhere for good dancing and I love experiencing dancing in different cities.

I've done a really good job of removing stress and drama from my life. It's definitely an unnecessary addition. If you are a person who creates stress, drama, and chaos, do us both a favor and move on to the next page. Life doesn't need to be made so complicated. Just living is complicated enough.

Music:

Mambo/salsa, cha cha cha, reggaeton, merengue, bachata, R & B, jazz

Movies:

Favorite movie: The Notebook(best love story/tear jerker I've seen in a long time.)
Favorite trilogy: The Lord of the Rings-I've seen it a gazillion times in both the extended and regular versions-GREAT movie

Television:

I don't watch much television, but when I do, I have to see:
America's Next Top Model(short people can have dreams too)

Young and the Restless(soap operas are a trip, but for some reason, this one has me hooked)

House MD, Lincoln Heights and I Love New York are also on my regular viewing schedule.

Books:

Anything by Zane(try going to sleep by yourself after you've read one of her books)-damn near impossible!

Mary B. Morrison has a similar writing style to Zane and I've enjoyed her books as well.

Heroes:

My mother...when it comes down to it, she's always my number one supporter.

My friends...I'm lucky to have some of the best friends on earth. Being surrounded by good, positive people who enjoy some of the same things I do is such a rewarding and refreshing way to live life

My daughter...somebody has to be the adult
