I’m really outgoing and I love to make people laugh. If they don’t laugh, I laugh at myself. I’m very easy to get along with. Looks are deceiving and I try to make friends with as 
many people possible. I love hanging out with my friends and sometimes I call into work/don’t do homework/lose sleep just to spend time… even if we don’t do anything productive. I have five (5) best friends, but we’re more like brothers. I have a particular friend whose primary mission is to help me become a better person 
. I’d rather play NBA2K9 than sit at a slot machine. I watch food network and cartoon network religiously… I eat a big bowl of cereal everyday. It’s really easy to forget that time is short. I forget names very easily, but faces are easy to remember. My number one favorite food are chips and salsa . My life revolves around dance and the army – a new breed. I express art through choreography and leadership through the day-by-day routine I live. I always want to be the one in charge, the one who’s responsible for everything, whether that be a positive or negative characteristic. I’m strong hearted and strong willed, and I love to be that positive influence to the people around me. Music is my heart, mind, and soul… my life.
