About me: My name is Monchalee. Many call me 'chi' and you can call me whatever it is you fancy. I'm open, sarcastic -- sometimes both to my detriment, and I've been told that I'm a little weird.
DISCLAIMER:
I love making new friends, but UNLESS I ALREADY KNOW you.... I will *NOT* add you as a friend unless you CONTACT ME FIRST with a message or two...
NOTICE: Sending me a message or two does not guarantee that I will add you. Further, my adding you does not guarantee a permanent spot in my friends list. I DO delete my "friends" as well.
I refuse to be a part of your MySpaceWhore collection of superficial "friends."
If you truly want to know more about "me"... you can find my personal website at http://www.monchalee.com
Who I'd like to meet: I want to meet people whose minds are open. Who see the invisible. Who speak the unspoken. Who love the unlovable unconditionally. I want to meet people who make me happy.
Even after his
passing the king of pop lives on ! Come down and listen to the tunes of Michael
Jackson, Jackson 5 and the bands from Motown, in addition to disco, 70s and 80s
