....
Dominican Army-brat born in italy. I'm a musician here in the nashville area. You can check out my music profile at www.myspace.com/giovannirodriguez. I'm a simple person who is easily entertained, but do appreciate things that are beautiful. I consider myself relatively intelligent, cool, chill, madd silly and personable. I love to laugh. I don't smoke, I'm generally hungry, open-minded and I don't club. I've very up front, so if you don't want the truth don't ask me. Ask me if you want to know something. I do IM..... so if your cool you might get it.
SMILE and May God Bless you.
PAZ Y AMOR,
G

HERE IS A LIST OF SOME OF WHAT I'VE BEEN LISTENING TO LATELY:
Who I'd like to meet: Anyone, as long as your cool, other fellow musicians/women. I dig cool personalities, sillyness, chillin' cabibilities, and intelligence. If you make me laugh your in. Unsuperficial people or unshallow people. (IF YOUR UNCOOL, PLEASE DON'T WRITE ME EVEN IF I WROTE YOU...I DON'T FEEL LIKE DEALING WITH YOU. I MOST LIKELY WROTE YOU CAUSE I LIKED SOMETHING...BUT IF YOUR PERSONALITY ISN'T AS PLEASANT AS THE WAY YOU LOOK... DON'T WRITE!! ) Don't dig smoking nor the thug thing. Dig the open-mindedness. Que Dios te bendiga. DON'T WRITE ME 3 WORD SENTENCES..I'm NOT going to write back. PAZ-OUT!!
