About me: What's Good Myspace?. We have just embarked upon a new year and I am definitely blessed to have made it this far. When I look back on all that God has brought me through, I am so elated. 08 was a hard year for me, but that is all in the past. The Bible says that those who look back are not worthy of the Kingdom of Heaven. So I'm getting up and going on with my life. I'm definitely going to soar to even greater heights than ever before. God is my personal GPS, directing my path every step of the way. Do you know him for yourself?
Previously, I had almost everything about me you could possibly want to know, however, if you really want to know about me, I'm sure you'll make the effort to do so, so I'll just drop the basic knowledge about myself.
My name is Gina and I reside on the southeast side of htown. I'm 21 ( an 80's babyyyy of course) and I have a strong passion for God, poetry,art, photography, fashion, black owned businesses and real hip hop or what I like to call hip hop with a purpose ( mos def, common, andre 3000, the roots, nas...etc)...I love all genres of music except country..As you can see I have a love for the arts...whether it be visual or performed. Also I'm a
I'm pretty much the laidback chick who could kick it with you as one of the boys bc I like to play on my xbox360, play a little basketball and watch sports, but don't get it twisted I can be very feminine as well,just depends on the mood . As you can see from my pics I love to smile and if you're in my world, I'll make you smile as well. Ask my friends and fam about that.

My Poetic work..(its copyrighted..so dont try it..lol or you could be paying me AT LEAST 15k...thank ya kindly. Thats right I'm an intellectual too! lol):
Time for Change
my afflictions got me wishing n praying for better days
seeing my peers being constantly buried
so now im preaching" if u dont know jesus, now is the time to get saved"
Bc we may not even be here to see what comes tomorrow..
n today seems to be filled with alot less happiness
n a lot more sorrow
More of us continue dying, more moms continue crying
n the dads ..well some are out looking for justice,
but daddy doesn't think nor does he realize he just gave the cops one more reason to arrest us.
Now thats one more of our brothers entangled in the prison system
far from a criminal, just fighting for his justice and against cynicism
All the while, The media continues to uplift our wrong doings for the almighty dollar
discouraging our youth to become leaders
but pushing them to become followers
And we complain about record labels
and the lyrics they market are trying to corrupt us
Not noticing we've been corrupted ever since ppl forgot
parenting their kids was an absolute must
Let's remember society's grand motto: if it don't make dollars...it don't make sense
and we go along supporting it, failing to realize its all at our generation's expense.

When I Speak
When i speak, I give your mind orgasms
Speech so eloquent and intellectual
I guarantee mental climaxing
And if you don't achieve 100% satisfaction
You still won't be able to deny that I gave your brain some good action.
See when I speak, I like to make sure what I say has some substance
I'm not a critic, so television shows and movies are not up for discussion
Lets talk politics, religion, science and current issues
n I don't mind debating. We're two different people, so I expect different views from you.
A lot of people, rarely see me speaking
but every time you see me quiet, now you know I have a reason
it's probably because I'm thinking
of ways to improve and perfect my methods of mental stimulation
so from then on when I speak, the mind orgasms I give
will give you an even greater sensation.
You're a pro at going with the flow You love to kick back and take in everything life has to offer A total joy to be around, people crave your stability.
While you're totally laid back, you can have bouts of hyperactivity. Get into a project you love, and you won't stop until it's done You're passionate - just selective about your passions
Who I'd like to meet: I'd like to meet anyone who likes to have fun and is a real person. Someone who will keep it a 110% all of the time. Anyone willing to pursue a friendship with me is cool in my eyes.I love intellectual conversation. People who talk alot and never say anything keep it moving.
FAR AS MY IDEAL YOUNG MAN:I WANT A GUY GOD-FEARING LIKE CHRISTIAN KEYES..HANDSOME LIKE COMMON..A SENSE OF HUMOR AND UNIQUENESS LIKE FARNSWORTH BENTLEY (U can be Unique in your own way), INTELLIGENT LIKE JEFF JOHNSON, SILLY LIKE LANCE GROSS N FRESH TO DEF LIKE KANYE..I've met all of these young men and I love them all..great personality and not afraid to be who they are..they arent about "fitting in" ...they are trendsetters..their own person.
My Fav. Men: Farnsworth, Common and Jeff Johnson...All multitalented

Thanks 4 the ADDD! here is a lil sum 4 ya hope to hear back from you soon...
I am not my scars I know you see my pains reflection through the window of my eye Every let down, misconception, every hurt, and every lie. I try to cover up, yet my nakedness still shows, You see me, in my truest form, I am vulnerable and exposed. Sometimes the phantom of my past appears, though I try to forget Even when I hide it in the darkness, I still see its silhouette. So why do I regret…? These events are the fabric of who I’ve come to be Every instance like a fiber woven in my life’s tapestry. I can only look back for wisdom, I must let this be my strength But even I have yet to discover the true extent of its length. I have only gone so deep, on the surface it hurts so much When I feel my ugliness visible, I just want to cover up. But these memories, the pain from my past, and what I see… This is only an illusion, not the definition of me. I am not my downfalls, and I am not my mistakes, Yet when they look at me, this is all they seem to take. But look at ME, look into my soul… Look at who I really am, not the scars that clearly show. I have to remind myself who I am every day, Because everyone and everything tries to lead my mind astray. They want me to believe I am who they see me to be… They try to show me what I’ve overcome as if it’s still me. Will I live up to be the conceptions as they have made Or will I make my own path, let the past lie where it may See, I am not my scars, my scars are just the proof That I have healed from my afflictions, and I have made it through. -Fiyah Shoot ur email addy over to get on my mailing list! have a great day! =)
