  <——–This is Me
Hey Guys,
I’m Ray or Raymond or Raymundo.
I surf, snowboard, I hang out with my amigos, and myspace (sorry if that makes you mad)
I do other things too, but i just don’t really want to name everything.
I am super down to earth and I really just like to have a fun time. 
My friends are my family and my family are my friends.
Most of my best friends are girls and they always have been but I also have some pretty cool guy friends.
 I can’t go a day without listening to music.
I have almost no limits to the type of music i listen to.
I live in Santa Cruz CA formerly known as Surf City, and it is probably the coolest town EVER!
I am 15 and I just started driving and i am not to good just to let you know
I currently am a sophomore at Santa Cruz High which is a pretty awesomely sick school!
As i said earlier, I surf and snowboard, which are such cool sports
I just love gliding on the ocean and carving through the snow!
I don’t really play any school sports but i am thinking of joining either track or swimming in the spring.
My passion and goal in life is to be a doctor.
I guess you could say that I am a little mini medicine-addict (not medicine as in pills but as in study of medicine, you know, like doctor stuff)
I am OBSESSED with looking at colleges even though I am still a little young to but i planned a road trip with my friend and we’re going to go college hunting.
My mom is my biggest inspiration in life
She was probably the strongest person I have ever met in my life
She battled breast cancer for 13 years and her faith and trust in God was strong through all of those years.
She passed away on April 11, 2008 and i still miss her every day.
Even though i have many reasons to be sad, I still try to keep a smile on my face and live life to the fullest
I have a serious obsession with TV shows sitcoms, dramas and reality television
My 3 favorite shows are Heroes, LOST, and Grey’s Anatomy.
God has changed my life and he has been there for me through thick and thin and i am very grateful for that.
I am soooooo excited to go to Swaziland and tell people about Him.
He is the most amazing thing in my life and nothing even compares to him.
I am stoked to meet all of you guys and I’ll see you soon
