About Me:
Im a social, nocturnal, active n outgoing person that is always down for meeting new people.... a Myer-Briggs ENTP!
Italian-Argentine / Peruvian mutt...
I like warm weather, sun, and beaches. i like to work hard and play even harder! I like to workout and train alot. When not working or sleeping, I am working on side ventures, or just doing martial arts stuff (esp sparring and grappling, or playing Capoeira)
i consider myself to be goal-oriented and know what I want to get in life, and how I have to go about gettin' it. I don't like to waste my time, and usually will get frustrated when I do. I have been referred to as well-rounded. I guess its cuz I like to learn new things all the time, therefore, I dabble into just about everything.
I like being challenged and if im not, then i get bored really easily and move on to something else. i guess that im pretty straight up as far as what I like and don't like... and can be blunt about it sometimes. not in a mean way (unless provoked).
I dont like arrogance or disrespect. i give the same amount of respect i receive. I dislike cheaters, users, and liars. I am pretty relaxed n easygoing, so it takes alot to piss me off.
I like to listen to alot of music too!! All types...
Current playlist:
Lupe Fiasco - Kick Push
Chamillionaire - Grown and Sexy
Ne-Yo - Sexy Love
Pharrell & Kanye - Number One
Omarion - Entourage
Sashamon - Necta (butterfly)

Who I Want to Meet:
Life will take care of that...
Would have liked to meet all the great martial artists that ever existed... I have currently met three and train under two!
Thank you Master Fariborz!!
Obrigado Mestre Boneco!!

Brandon! 8 D
Indian. haha, don't ask me why, but I
thought Brandon was Indian when I first
me him, and he gave me so much crap
about it. Oops! Brandon is fun, and he
cares about the pillow I made for my ex
a lot. Everytime we talked about my
breakup, Brandon would go (in a overly
zealous tone), "BUT YOU GAVE HIM THE
PILLOW!" Yup, he is crazy. I like
Brandon, 'cuz he is fun and he lets me
play with his monkey and take his
clothes off. And NO, I didn't mean
Brandon's clothes, I meant his monkey's.
intelligent, outgoing and fun person
to be around. I think he knows more
about Hawaiian music than I
do...hehe It's great that you have the
Aloha spirit! We gotta hang out
before you start school again.
GOODLUCK at Pepperdine! A hui
hou...kiotsukette ne 8 )
cajoling from my man B here to throw
him some props, here goes.
When I first met this dude, he was SOOO
mean to me. It was our freshman year
at Chaminade College Preparatory, West
Hills. Brandon and I were in Mrs.
Chin's Geography class. He was
*scrawny*. Skinny as a popsicle stick
and he was in the band. In fact he and
I were the same height.
I AM NOT SHITTING YOU, peoples, if you
UCLA people think that he was always
built and tall like now, and you wanna
know the TRUTH, the REALITY of what he
was like in our younger years, Scotty
and I can testify to this!
Anyway, back to him being a mean
person. He was totally cruel and made
fun of my last name (yeah, gee, how
original, like not EVERY high school
kid does that one) and all that.
Fast forward to senior year, where all
of a sudden, B and Ishmael and Druez
and Scotty and Martin and Pantaleo and
Brian Scott and Sakiyama and I are
cool with each other. Aaah, Scotty and
Brian Scott and I got into SO much
trouble in Physics class. Damn did I
hate that class.
Anyway, Brandon grew taller, but we
didn't really start to hang until
college rolled around. And even though
Scotty and I and the rest of the
Trojans know that USC is totally
superior in caliber to UCLA, Bruin
Brandon and I are still friends.
Remember when you showed up at my
apartment and I totally didn't even
recognize you? You were so changed!
You must've seen the shocked look on my
face when I remembered that it was my
formerly scrawny Geography class buddy!
Remember when we went dancing at
Domenico's in Pasadena and Sook totally
flipped out when he laid eyes on me for
the first time since graduation? And
you danced all up on my cute
girlfriends. Haha, that is all SO not
Mrs. Chin's class. If they told us
that that was how it was going to be 8
years later we wouldn't have believed
them. Yes, our shared "confidence,
Brandon, that is what matters now. We
rock and you know it! I love you too!
Brandon he came by my place to
cook up some seafood linguine and
have some wine *but not for meeee
=) *...and if you know him then i
guess you know what that was all
about. Over time I got to know the
guy better and can't say that it's been
a bad experience at all...IT'S BEEN
SOOOOOO INTERESTING! But
brandon's seen the many facets and
faces of me...including when i was
pissed off at luau rehearsals and
drilling everyone. But he's definitely a
cool guy (in every sense of the word
"cool"). **et ca ton testimonial!
d'acc?**
of the most well rounded guys that I
know. From Martial Artist to
Aerospace Engineering Genius to Mr.
Center of the Party, he can do it
ALL. I have known Brandon since my
Sophmore year in College, and we had
many awesome ass times together in
ACA. Hey, we'll be on the cover of GQ
or Forbes some day. Best of luck to
you Bro! I know all the Asian ladies
r lining up to meet u.
guy (to girls that is....j/k ) =) He's
a great dancer (has a style of his own-
- remember Boot Camp '01???) and he
has an outrageously outgoing
personality (very personable) Overall,
a fun guy to know and be friends with
and it's not the same not seeing him
at all those party functions or even
on Bruinwalk =P Anyways, i wish you
the best w/ wutever you are doing and
maybe we can catch up sometime! Take
care!
good way right? ;) Yep you can always
find him partyin' hard and tearin up
that dance floor, and I CAN TOO keep up
with u!!! =D haha. He's fun to talk
to, he laughs at just about everything
and he'll just end up making you laugh
cuz it's contagious like that. hmm
what else? oh YEAH he likes to make
fun of me a lot and give me a hard
time, now how could I forget that...
sooo charming. he also tries to scare
me with his driving. I'm glad I got to
know you this year... you're definitely
quite a character and i don't think
i've ever met anyone else like you.
haha. u better introduce me to
hawaiian food sometime!!! c'mon
Brandon, where's the italian in you...
teach me how to cook some yummy italian
food and show me your skills!!!
