I am here for Dating, Serious Relationships, Friends and Networking

About Me

I plan on owning my own toy company some day, so I am putting in the time now to make it happen!I also want to use my products in a way that will educate the world about what Africa is really all about without hitting people over the head with my message like blunt force trauma.

My Interests

I like rollerskating- I don't get a chance to do that much!I love going out dancing.I read incessantly, whether it's comic books, novels, or news on the internet. I love to hang out with friends and just talk shit.I am trying to get back to the gym.I'm starting to sew again, and have been designing freaky stuffed animals, although I don't know where I'm going to put them with all the toys that I've collected!I have a vinyl collection of 2-3,000 records and I spin a new house mix about once every week and a half.I haven't done in it about 11 months, but I also create house music on my computer!I listen to my mixes and songs on my i-Pod while I'm running errands or at work.It's what keeps me sane!

I'd like to meet:

In another life I will meet my ancestor Sengbe Pieh (whom the movie Amistad was based on). My parents were both born in Sierra Leone, so I can trace my ancestry back to him directly on both sides.[If you google his portrait, you will find that we look alike.]I grew up in NYC, and come from a pretty cool family, so I don't really get all that starstruck by anyone.I love everybody, unless you're a jerk.
