11 Things About Me

1. I am going to college and studying music with an emphasis on Classical Vocal Technique (aka I sing opera).

2. I was born November 21st, 1987 in Long Beach California. 

3. I am a Scorpio which is a water sign. I think this and my birth place have invested a deep love for the ocean inside of me. 

4. I love astrology, the planets, the stars and constellations. I don't live by it, but I find it fascinating. There is this order to the universe which many view as chaos (Big Bang theory, elements, heat, explosion, and yet order is made from that very chaos). 

5. Despite the Big Bang comment I just made, I was raised Christian and have a love for ALL religions. I am very open minded.

6. I like to make my own clothes whenever I can, or buy clothes really cheap on ebay and personalize them.

7. My grandfather, grandmother, and father all died before the time I was 8 years old. Their passing's really influenced my life- I'm very emotional, I look deep into stupid small things, and I truly Truly love all my friends. 

8. I love to read and write. I have stacks and shelves of books in my room on various topics from serial killers, sexuality in Victorian America, faerie tales, King Tutankhamun's treasure (I love Egypt), vampires, and spirituality. 

9. If you have given me roses, I have most likely preserved them or bound the petals in a book for safekeeping.

10. I am allergic to mangos. My aunt brought some over when I was 14 and I ate 2 then went to sleep. I woke up covered in hives and was rushed to the emergency where they thought I had anthrax poisoning. Haha, best Christmas Eve ever. 

11. I have an older brother named Marcos Anthony. He is one year older, we're entirely different, but we get along every now and then.
