Love found Rayna at the Perfect Time


“I have never lost a fight...not yet anyways. There's always someone out there that can kick your ass. I have injured a couple [guys] but not technically beat them up.” Those are the words of the sweet and beautiful Rayna Barone.

The 22-year old student at San Jose State University had a rough time growing up, but has made the best out of her past obstacles.

“At one point in my life i was a very angry person because of certain events that occurred that were very devastating but i found peace in kick boxing,” Barone said about her coping method for her previous emotional state. “I did kick boxing for two years and stopped having so many confrontations with others in high school.”

Though she is new and refined, she hasn't lost all of her fire. “My friends love me because I'm really loyal and funny. I'm the sweetest person but if u get on my bad side...i have no problem whoopin' some ass and my friends think I'm crazy for it.”

“I have had a difficult life and because of that i had to grow up really quickly,” Barone mentioned. Despite all of her hardships, she is currently preparing for the beginning of her happy ending.

Her boyfriend, at the time, now fiancé, dated Barone for four years.

Rayna recounts the exciting event for us: “How he popped the question was very romantic.... We have an amazing dinner a the melting Pot downtown San Jose and then he took me to the boardwalk on the beach where he first told me he loved me, we drank champagne and when i wasn't looking he wrote will u marry me in the sand and got on one knee! Of course i said yes and we started crying.”

Most people criticize young marriages, but Barone feels that she has matured enough to take this important step in her life. “There was one point in time during my relationship that I doubted if I was doing the right thing and I made some mistakes but in the end it made me realize how great I had it and I could never picture myself being with anyone else for the rest of my life.”

Barone expresses full her faith in her new fiancé, “Not only is he my Fiancé but my best friend. So for someone to force their opinion on my life I would tell them they no nothing about me and i would feel no need to explain something that I know in my heart is right.”

Barone recalls what helped keep her head above water, “A lot of difficult times have been thrown my way since i was young and what keeps me motivated is my family, friends and hopes of the future. Adam is my rock, he keeps me strong and keeps me positive just when i think everything is falling apart. The things that devastate you in life are the things that make you stronger in the future.”
