About

I guess since this is MY blog, I should tell you who I am! 

I am 36 years old. I am a mom of two great teenagers. I am a wife, a sister, a daughter, a friend. I am a professional photographer who shoots fashion and editorial work. I absolutely love everything about the fashion and beauty world. Music motivates me, and I always need to hear it in the background. Hip Hop, rap, techno, rock, 80′s and 90′s are my favorite genres. I love to travel, and take joy rides with no particular destination. I love to explore. I love old, beat-up objects and places, as I find the mystery of it intriguing. The beach is my favorite place to be. I love to shop, and find there is nothing more satisfying than some self-gratification. I love to write, and have been working on a Memoir for several years. I love the City (NY, Montreal and Boston are my favorite). I love to people watch, and create stories inside my head. I am a great listener, and give great advice. I am the person who will give the shirt off my back for anyone, but if you cross me, I can’t promise that my other personality wont come out. I care deeply, and love passionately.I love photography, graffiti, modern and pop art, color and texture. I stand strong on gay rights, and wish people weren’t so ignorant. Ignorance is my biggest pet peeve. I’m not good with money and I spend too much of it. I keep the TV on constantly, but I hardly watch it. I love listening to music really loud! I have insomnia, and wish I could sleep more.I cannot accept compliments gracefully. I respond with quick quips or flashes of rolling eyes and half smirks. I don’t suffer from poor self-esteem; not in any typical fashion anyway. My serious outer shell fools a lot of people, I am really a kid at heart and I love to dork out! I am a sensitive, giving, caring, anxious-ridden, somewhat neurotic, emotional, dorky, sarcastic individual. I would do anything in my means for those I love & care about. Sometimes too forgiving. Understanding, passionate, quiet at first but warm up to people very quickly. Putting words to paper is exhilirating. Open-minded, generous. I’m either very passionate about something, or I just don’t care. I’m an old soul. I tend to psycho-analyze people & situations….picking up people’s energy all too often. Psychology & Philosophy intrigue me. I give honest opinions & suggestions & will debate something I feel strongly about.Good judge of character…I’ve met many faces along the way & know the red flags when I see them. If you’re phony, I’ll most likely see right through it. If you’re real with me, then you’re good people in my eyes. It usually takes a lot for me to get upset with someone, but if my buttons are pushed too much you can bet on my ‘other’ personality coming out! Firm believer in karma! I’m comforted by the fact that I’ve finally found myself…took a long time & many hard lessons learned! It’s amazing how far you can fall, be swallowed in by certain people & lose yourself completely! It definitely made me a stronger person. I tend to stay away from those who come out loud & strong, & feel they need to be the center of attention. I enjoy people who are laid-back, not afraid to be who they really are…being silly from time to time is good stuff! I love to laugh. I often laugh so hard I cry. I love being in the company of friends. I believe everyone has a soulmate. I found mine. I believe everyone should be respected, & showered with the love they deserve. I hate people who show abuse in relationships as a means of control. That isn’t love. If I ever, or have ever told someone I love them, it’s meant from the bottom of my heart. If I said I hated you, I meant that too….from the bottom of my heart .My wife, children & friends are my life. I can do without the majority of my family. I work to live. I don’t live to work.  I hate returning phone calls. Chocolate is my weakness. I hate running. I love to read but can’t find enough time to do it.  I love being barefoot & wearing flip-flops. I hate winter. I love getting dressed up. I’ve always been a girly-girl. I have caviar dreams, but the little things make me happy. I love changing my hair color. I love change for the better, period. I’ve always believed my purpose is to help others. I give great advice. I don’t take it. Alcohol is the devil. I love being a mom. I have a huge heart & trust too much. This has, & will always work against me. Honesty really is the best policy. I ‘hate’ liars & ignorance.  I live life the best way I know how.You win, you lose & sometimes things are way beyond our control. I give a great effort in everything I do. Always a work in progress, but… A huge heart, & very strong-willed…..I think I’m pretty good people.
