I'd like to believe it's photography, classical music and contemporary art.. but then I wake up and realize that I'm all about spending too much money on spas and hair treatments.

To Kill A Mockingbird, The Bell Jar, Catch-22, The Kiterunner, Written on the Body and the list goes on and on

Artsy Films, Chick Flicks and Legendary Classics. I'm not too big on what's showing right now. I've never even seen Shrek.

It varies depending on my mood. In general, I tell people that I love Nina Simone, Edith Piaf, Ettta James and Sade. I really do. They just don't have to know that I still listen to the now defunct 98 degrees and sing to Smokey Mountain from time to time.

Reality tv's my guilty pleasure so I'm proud to say: A Shot at Love, Keeping up with the Kardashians, America's Best Dance Crew and just about anything bogus MTV comes up with.

Things you guys probably don't know about me until now:

1. I have a strange fascination for plastic containers in every imaginable size. I own about a hundred of them and I've placed just about everything I own there-- shoes, bags, clothes, office supplies.. you name it. I'm a huge plastic container freak.

2. I co-own a construction company. I've rolled up my sleeves a few times to paint actual BUILDINGS myself.

3. Contrary to popular belief, my wardrobe mostly consists of boring suits and collared-long sleeved shirts... as opposed to skimpy halters and short shorts.

4. I've never tasted dinuguan, menudo, mechado, afritada, mangga't bagoong and an entire array of filipino dishes.

5. I've also never tasted rambutan, chico, santol, green mangoes, cantaloupe and durian.

6. I retain a lot of useless information in my head.. I still know my 2nd grade classmate's 6-digit phone number until now. I could also most likely tell you what you wore the last time we saw each other or a shallow secret you've told me in the past that you've probably forgotten yourself.

7. I used to compete in darts and have won a few times.

8. I write using stenography when I'm in a hurry.

9. I'm fatally allergic to alcohol. I could die within minutes of ingesting it.

10. I hardly ever drink water.

11. I had a yaya following me around until I was 21.

12. Roaches and spiders don't bother me at all but lizards scare me shitless

13. This is the 3rd time I've had braces installed on my teeth.

14. When I was 7, I honestly thought I could join the Tuesday group of That's Entertainment and be Billy Joe Crawford's love interest.

15. I got caught reading Penthouse and Playboy when I was 7 too. I was a frisky kid.

16. I could kick your ass in Boggle and Word Factory.

17. I hate seeing guys with their collars popped up, it makes my blood boil.

Suze Orman and Kimora Lee Simmons-- I'm so obsessed with these two it's not even funny.

You two moguls, if you end up reading this, i'd like to propose a business partnership. We'll build our own enterprise and eventually take over the world. How does that sound?
