About me:
I am originally from Jamaica WI. I like to meet up with friends to catch up and see how things are going. I love to read, sing, write poetry and short stories. I also like to play sports, especially basketball and some tennis. I am interested in the martial arts as well. I currently teach Spanish at a boarding school and I also teach reading and math. I guess I never did make it to Medical School. I published my book The Dark Times. It is available at www.Amazon.com and www.Booksurge.com.
