About Me:

What kind or an idea are you?
Are you the kind that compromises, does deals
accommodates itself to society,
aims to find a niche, to survive;
or are you the cursed, bloody-minded, ramrod-backed type of damnfool that would rather break than sway with the breeze?
the kind that will almost certainly, ninety-nine times out of a hundred, be smashed to bits; but the hundredth time
Will change the WORLD
-The Satanic Verses

I guess you can say I consider myself to be the damnfool mentioned above

I basically want to change the world and play capoeira.... I've been doing it since about last March, and was the last person to join our cordel class for our Batizado...needless to say I'm a newbie but I cannot even begin to explain what capoeira has and is meaning to me in every aspect of my life, from my physical condition to my outlook and view on people, philosophy and just living, I have also had the chance to meet amazing people and make great friends that I consider to be my family...I can't wait to continue growing as a capoeirista and finally get that six pack haha :-P j/k, well the six pack as well as the understanding, responsibility and growth that more training and time will bring ;-)
