I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
I'm a son. I'm a brother. I'm a friend. I'm a Filipino American. I'm a product of my parents. I'm a practicing Catholic. I'm an on-air radio personality. I'm a Promotions Director. I'm a lover of music. I'm a lover of Hip Hop. I'm a collector of memories and good times. I'm a bedroom DJ. I'm the biggest activist you'll never see on the picket lines. I'm a student of LIFE. I'm a teacher of LIFE. I'm an observer of people. I'm a writer. I'm a modern day philosopher. I'm a traveler. I'm a party/club promoter. I'm a consumer of alcoholic beverages. I'm the most in shape fat guy you'll ever meet. I'm a lover of food. I'm a shoe whore. I'm a DVD whore. I'm a vinyl whore. I'm a collector of random t-shirts. I'm a dreamer. I'm a Vegas and Texas Hold 'em junkie. I'm a party-goer. I'm too many things to write in one day...
I'll keep adding things as they come along.
"I ain't no perfect man/ I'm trying to do, the best that I can,/With what it is I have." -Mos Def (Umi Says)
"Your talent is God's gift to you, what you do with it is your gift to God." (from an episode of ER)
"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams." -Eleanor Roosevelt (The quote I've been living by since I was 15 years old, when I found it printed in the newspaper...still carry it in my wallet to this day.)
I LOVE MY FAMILY...folks say I look exactly like my Mom...
