Of course. Everyone should in. Men don't get a pass for reckless behavior because they are men.

smile and say hit to people who look interesting and outgoing. chances are they know a bunch of people and if you play your cards right, they'll introduce you.

you need to go, even if you're nervous, if for no other reason, then you'll get accustomed to being there and your nervousness will lessen. also, if you show up at enough stuff, people will just start talking to you because you're a familiar face. sometimes showing up is half the battle.

Success. It's more fulfilling and is contingently defined by my own achievements. While fame relies on the favour/fervour of others to thrive and is therefore quite fleeting and "empty".

Christ following. Handsome. Good sense of humor. Supportive. Caring. (then I married him LOL)

A woman who is as passionate about her ideas as she is about loving. Nurturing attractive to me and willing to have us be mutually dedicated to each other's happiness.

Someone who will pick me up when I am down and help me to birth out my goals and dreams. A nice smile wouldn't hurt! lol

Success.

Well excuse me, lol, didn't know 'hardcore hip-hop' was designed for a male audience only. To answer your question, I enjoy all kinds of hip-hop music, especially those high-powered, energy-driven tracks that get you hyped and amped to take on life's obstacles. My work/life balance is nut-so! If I'm not handling business at work, then I'm running my own business at home. Mix that in with being a wife and mother of two rambunctious little boys and life can get pretty interesting on a daily basis. Did I mention that I'm planning to start grad school too? So yea, I wouldn't say that I'm angry, just assertive and hardcore hip-hop is a part of the soundtrack to my life. *queues Eminem's Lose Yourself*
