About Me

Profile Edited by MPS MySpace Editor 2.0Y'all some nosey a$$ mo-fo's! Okay, so whatcha wanna know? I love my family more than anyone can possibly imagine. I'm the youngest of four children, and the only boy. I'm not spoiled if that's what you're thinking... well, maybe just a lil bit.I'm a soft-spoken person, blessed with a genuine & generous spirit. Don't take my kindness for weakness, cause I'm far from a punk, and I'm nobody's fool. This might be a good time for you to refer back to my headline statement... just so if you see me in a club setting, bar, or with my friends, you won't be too shocked.Speaking of friends, that's not a term I take lightly (the same goes for the "L" word). Making your way to that kind of status requires you earning my trust and respect (a good sense of humor helps too).I love watching, learning, studying and practicing martial arts. Like most, I began with Tae Kwon Do, which later was substituted for some informal training in grappling. In 1999, one of my college dormmates introduced me to Wing Chun. After moving back to NY two years later, I found a class and it's been love ever since. I just hope it's not the jealous type, since I recently began learning Angola Capoeira to compliment my training in Kung Fu.One of my other passions would be traveling. I'm always up for a trip; both nationally and abroad. My goal is to leave the US at least once a year. So far, I've been to Rome, Paris (twice), London (3x). 2006 was a bit of a downer since my ten day cultural trip to Panama fell through. Oh well, I'll just have to add it to my list of places to go.--------------------------------------------------------- -- My webpage evolution is an ongoing process, so keep checking. The page will improve* Peace @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@M ost Stupid Dog?
