[edit] About Me
Hello, my name is Jesus. I am 19 years old, and I reside in Hialeah, FL. Currently I am a Business Management major at Miami Dade College. I also work full time as a supervisor for Wal-Mart. I work in the grocery receiving area, and I am in charge of overseeing the day to day operations of the Dairy, Frozen Foods, Dry Grocery, DSD, Candy, and Liquor departments. My goal is to become a salaried member of management, sometime in the near future. I am on track to graduate this summer with an A.A. degree in Business Management. After which I plan to matriculate at Florida International University and pursue a B.A. in Business Management.
I fancy myself a Renaissance man, if you will. I think it is important to be a well rounded individual and to learn as much as possible in all fields of life. In today’s world everyone focuses on one field and forget about everything else. Personally I like to expand and learn as much as I can about everything. My areas of expertise are English, Math, Electronics, and Science. Secretly I wish I could draw (my mother is an artist’s but she passed that gene onto my little sister). While I may not be able to draw I can write very well, I enjoy writing poetry and short stories. Currently I am in the process of writing a great epic novel, and maybe someday I will have it published. I recently started taking classes in HTML and CSS, and I hope to launch a freelance web design company sometime in the near future.
Ever since I can remember I have been a night person, I feel more alive at night (maybe I was a vampire in another life lol). I am outgoing and like to have fun (who doesn't) however, my definition of fun seems to differ greatly from others. I despise going to dumb parties, where most of the crowd is planning on acting a fool and getting wasted. For some reason that doesn't sound to appealing to me (I under why?). Also I loathe generic activities, for example "going out to eat", what’s so fun about going out to some fancy restaurant to eat a TINY meal with a GIANT price? On top of that you are trying to do several things at the same time that just do not mix. For example you are trying to have a conversion and eat at the same time...um I am the only one who sees the problem with that. Then you are trying to be interesting yet polite, in a loud open atmosphere...um again. And lastly you are trying to have a private evening with someone and everyone is looking to see what everyone else is doing...once again problem?
[edit] Personality
My personality is a light pleasant shade of red, the color of love, passion, and strength. I may be scrawny on the outside, but inside, I feel like Superman, because no matter how bad things get I know I can make it happen. At times I know my confidence can be seen as arrogance, however, that is not the case. I am well aware of my shortcomings and I work hard to correct them every day. Right now I am in an evolutionary stage in my life, I am about half way done with my schooling, and I am on the verge of being promoted at work. As we speak I am working hard, establishing the foundation for the rest of my life. As anyone who has been in this stage, will tell you, doubts, insecurities, and procrastation are the sinful indulgences I nibble on daily. Like everyone else I have doubts and insecurities, but when I catch myself spurging on those scrumptious rations of self-doubt, I incinerate them in the sweltering fire of self-confidence. While I like to joke and play around, I consider myself a serious person and as such I like to be taken seriously. I naturally have a strong character, which has been amplified by the hardships and struggles I have faced. Even though I am only nineteen I am very focused and determined. I have lived in the misery of poverty for too long, and I have seen the degrading effects it causes everyone caught in its crippling hold. From the deepest chasms of my soul, I refuse to live paycheck to paycheck and I will not let the mistakes of my parents, dictate my future. A life with no regrets, no fear, without excuses, or broken promises; that is the life I will live. Life is too short, to squander over lies and pity excuses. In my life there is no room for mistakes or shortcomings, I will not tolerate anything short of success in all facets of my life. I am cool and calculated and at times people see that as being heartless and cold. I like to be in control and as such I don't jump into things. I consider everthing twice before making a decision, and then a third. I have experienced a thousand and one let downs in the past, and I don't want to experience anymore. Thats why I like to be in control of my actions at all time. That doesn't mean I am a control freak, it just means that I don't let any emotion or extrenal factor control me, I just let everything go with a brush of my shoulders. I am myself all the time, and I loathe fake people, so if you are fake stay away from me. What I mean by fake people is people who pretend to be someone who they are not, people who hide their likes and dislikes to try to fit in. I am a man, and that means that I stand up for what I believe in, even if that means standing up against the whole world and everyone in it. I walk around with the strength of a hundred men and I fear nothing, expect the wraith of god. I have a thirst for knowledge that will probably never be quenched, I love going to school, and learning sometime new every day. Expecially when it comes to learning about people from different cultures, religions, and nationalities. Racism is something that I can't stand, in part because, I have been discrimated against. I have made it my goal to never discrimate, because I don't want anyone to feel, how I felt when people treated me like I was worthless. It is sad to see that people focus on the minute differences, instead of seeing the overwhelming similarities. Personally, I am the kind of person who won't wish evil, even on my worst enemy. I have learned that, by wishing evil onto others, the only thing that is achieved is the loss of hope for forgiveness. Everyone has a conscience and may repent for what did they today, tomorrow. But, by wishing evil onto others that atonement will never have the opporunity to be realized.

I am interested in politics, I like to remain neutral, because I believe in good people, not good factions. Both parties have had great presidents, and I believe it is important to vote for a the right person, and not just one party. I am an avid promoter, of racial equality, which is still a long way off, but the journey of a billion miles, begins with one step. Pro-life is the way to be. When I was younger and I watched war movies, the young people were always eager to go to war and fight, however, the older men, wanted to avoid war at all costs. I could never understand that back then, however, now I know why. It is because the older men learned the hard way that there is no reason that justifies the premature death of life. Maybe even god is not justified in that action. No matter what the cause, even if a thief breaks in and is going to murder everyone in the house, the tenants may choose to kill him in self-defense, and yes the law may pardon them, but their actions were not justified, because once again the value of a life cannot be measured. People have always lived by the "an eye for an eye" motto, unfortunately the problem with that is that at the end of the day everyone ends up blind.
[edit] Literature
Literature has always fascinated me. Literature is the quintessential form of art, it has the power to inspire and provoke spirited reactions from its audience. I enjoy reading material with exceptionally well developed prose that conveys a sense of meaning through its structure just as much as its actually message. I like authors with flare and style, who are daring and break through the same old everyday stale conventions of the period. Among my favorite authors and writers are J.R.R Tolkien, William Shakespeare, and Martin Luther King Jr. My favorite books include The Lord of the Rings trilogy, the Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn trilogy, The Da Vinci Code, Hamlet, A Mid Summer Nights Dream, etc.

[edit] Movies
While I have always enjoyed watching movies, I have never really studied them in depth. However, like all other great works of art, I love to analize them and their content. The films that I have enjoyed the most include The Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Saving Private Ryan, etc.
I think video games are taking the stage as we speak and one day they will be seen in the same light as books and films. Video games are a new canvas in which talented artist can create great works of art. My favorite video game, Final Fantasy VII, is a great example, it contains an epic story, which the power to move an audience to laughter, joy, anger, and yes, even tears.
I enjoy playing the Grand Theft Auto series, yes thats right I play Grand Theft Auto. To date I have never killed anyone or had the urge to kill anyone. Not only that but I have never robbed, rape, picked up a prostitue, stolen a car, killed a cop, or been influenced in any way shape or form either besides maybe a laugh or two. I work 50 to 60 hours a week, and maintain a 3.76 G.P.A. So I think it is safe to say that G.T.A does not cause people to go on a killing spree. Remember "Guns don't kill people, people kill people"!
Moving back toward video games, after that unneeded rant, I also enjoy the Final Fantasy series, I am an avid Call of Duty gamer. I currently play Call of Duty 4 online 24/7. My username is Ryulen in case anyone wants to play with me. I have dubbled a bit into Devil May Cry, but not to much. I am a big fan of RPG's, I also enjoy sports games like Madden, racing games, fighting games, and adventure games.
I enjoy listening to good music from all genres. I like Rap, Hip Hop, R&B, Rock, Metal, a bit of soulful country, some classical music, New Wave, and alternative music. Among my favorite musicians are: 2pac, Biggie, Ludacris, Pharrell, Nas, Lil Wayne, Linkin Park, Jay-Z, Run DMC, Kelly Clarkson, Led Zeppelin, Mary J. Blige, Mariah Cary, Aventura, Whitney Houston, Johnny Cash, Eminem.
