Aloha!
Wow, it seems we have a lot in common. Me and my sisters are 3 years and 3 months apart. Too funny...
Here's my email (wendynanderson74@yahoo.com) if you ever want to talk outside of this forum.
Take care,

<quoted text>Hey, APV. You sure don't look 230lbs...lol...Do you and your sisters get along well enough?

LOL-that's why I said a lot in common...
Why "thank you"! ;) I'm glad I don't look like I weight that. I've lost a lot of weight (but I never reached 230lbs-close but no cigar) and still have more to go...
I'm really closer to my younger sister (since we had to share a room growing up). My older sister and I are like oil and water-however we'll team up if an outsider attacks (funny how that works).
What about you?

<quoted text>My relationship with my siblings is so-so. We were fairly close growing up, but as each of us left the house, we kind of went off and did our own thing separate from the family......find ourselves. My brother (the youngest) just recently moved across the country. So our contact is through e-mails and phone. I'm actually close with my sister's son, so that is primarily where the strength of our relationship comes from right now. But we are working on it.
.....and oh yeah. I know what you mean. We can have all the inner battles and bickering we want. But nobody else better step to my fam the wrong way...lol

Yeah, that does tend to happen-especially when you move out of your parent's home and start focusing on making your own life.
Do you stay in contact with your parents? My mom makes an attempt to call me weekly since I moved out here. I talk to her more while living out here than when I did living back in MA.

<quoted text>Mostly holidays, birthdays, barbecues....stuff like that. We were never all that close growing up. But my father and I have had more of a relationship over the past seven years than we did the prior 24. If you don't mind me asking, what brought you to Hawaii?

I'm Erick
I get along with most people I know.
I have many friends, but only 5 close ones.
People think I'm a people person, but I won't talk to you first if you don't talk to me.
I am about 6 ft 2, multi-racial, male, 200 pounds
People always think I'm way older than 16.
I'm self-conscious for a reason that happened to me 10 years ago.
I love black women, I haven't seen one on this thread that was ugly so far, and I'm loving it.
I live in a white community, where most of the black girls act ghetto (and I mean GHETTO!), just loud, noisy, horrible weaves, stank,lol.
I'm a ladies man, I will easily talk a woman before a man.

Lets see, I am a 34 male, 5-9,190lbs. i am light skinned. i have long dreads (been growing them since 99)
Originally i'm from the west indies, i moved here in 96 to attend college. I finished my bachelors and masters degree in structural engineering and received my professional license 3 years ago. at work I design bridges,tunnels and train stations. My job its ok but i don't see my future in this profession so I'm pondering a career change.
i'd like to move away from new york because the winter affects my mood and spirit in negative ways.
I like doing charity work, i have always given back since I was a kid. I am very down to earth and shy, but once i am comftorbable I am fun to be around.
As far as hobbies I what you call a starter; i've pretty much tried everything at one point, but i soon get bored and start something else.
politically, I more conservative than liberal.
I am a sports junkie, i especially like soccer and cricket. i am a huge west indies cricket fan and i am also very keen on cricket stats.
i love music, i used to be a 'crate digger' in college and at one time I had 7000 albums. i like all kinds of music and I am happiest when music around. I sometimes dabble in music production (beat making) and DJing. I have never been a good dancer, I do my shuffle and that's all.
In the future, I would like to get married and have a family and maybe own a business . My dream is for a better future for my black brothers and sisters, especially in the weest indies. My family has been involved in the struggle for west indian federation in the 50's and it would be a dream to see a united west indies in my lifetime. anyway this a long ass post , I'm done

I don't get on with snobby people, racists and bullys.

I'll add to my story before I head out...
these are my life endangering stories:
I was born in Chicago, and at 2 months old my 2 year old brother got RSV, and made me sick with it. At that time, many doctors didn't know what RSV was, I wasn't eating, and my doctor told my mom that I wasn't hungry. It turns out that every muscle in my body was trying its hardest to keep me alive. I'm okay now,=) but I sometimes wonder why my mom didn't sue the doctor. I would have, because he almost killed me!! But I admire her for having such a loving/forgiving attitude.
So... now I have asthma. Only hurts when I'm playing a rigorous sport or running a couple of miles.
Next, my brother knocked me off of a bunk bed when I was 6. I bit my tongue half way off x_x. Uncontrollably bleeding, I was rushed to the hospital. The doctor said it had to heal on it's own. Luckily, i have a normal tongue!! phew!
