I am confident, lefty, and silly.

My Self-Summary

I'm pretty laid back, but sometimes I tend to take life too seriously. Conversely, I often don't take myself very seriously. That being said, I enjoy making people around me laugh. If I could put a smile on your face, then I'm happy.

I write a lot of poetry. I often compete in poetry slams. I've lost more than I've won, but the experience is worth the effort alone. Being able to hear and share my poetry with others gives me such a rush. If you ever want to hear or read some of my work, just let me know :) I record music as well, I guess they kind of go hand in hand. I mostly record Hip-Hop, but I sing too (If you're nice, I might sing to you..IF!).

Finally, I'm pretty straightforward. Almost to a fault. If you can't take it...sucks for you.

I can honestly say that I enjoy my life right now. No, I haven't accomplished every goal that I've set for myself, but it all a process.

...and I love the Yankees!

What I’m doing with my life

I'm gearing up to go to Law School next year, but in the meantime, I've been working in urban area schools around New York, running after school programs as well as tutoring children. My ultimate goal is to get into civil rights law and hopefully make a difference in someone's life.

I’m really good at

Remembering stuff. I alway remember the most random things. Like what color you wore on August 17, 1993. Weird.

The first things people usually notice about me

My smile, then again I don't go around smiling at random people, so I guess I'd say my skin color. People do often look at my feet for some odd reason.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books: The Autobiography of Malcolm X, Black Like Me, Team of Rivals, Nigger: An Autobiography, Culture Jam, Nixonland, To Stand and Fight, etc..

Movies: The Godfather Trilogy, Mary Poppins, The Sound of Music, Scarface, The Color Purple, Glory, The Lion King, When Harry Met Sally, Falling Down, etc...

Music: Mostly everything. I really love Hip-Hop and Jazz though.

Food: Everything

The six things I could never do without

Ketchup
A hoody
gum
keys
nail clippers
vaseline

I spend a lot of time thinking about

What I'm doing tomorrow and what the weather's going to be like.

On a typical Friday night I am

Home on the phone.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I'm more sensitive than I lead on to be.
