i also dabble in the art of playing and making music. my music resume: keys and strings and vocals. there is never a silent moment in my life! music is on all the time. bless the person who invented the iPod. you have my utmost respect, THANK YOU. I LOVE MUSIC.period....
i love: the godfather!!! "only don't tell me you're innocent...because that insults my intelligence, and it makes me very angry...", what about bob?--oh my gosh! i love that movie!, nacho libre "get that corn outta my face!" "underneath the clothes, you find a man...underneath the man, you find--his nucleus...", the prestige, the skeleton key, blood diamond, the life aquatic with steve zissou, tristan and isolde--james franco and henry cavill are hotties!, bride and prejudice (not to be mistaken with pride and prejudice--this is the bollywood version), also pride and prejudice, emma, crash, elf, the ringer, akeelah and the bee, the count of monte cristo, amadeus, daniel deronda, the way things were, now and then, the lion king, beauty and the beast, aladdin, cinderella, little mermaid, sleeping beauty, envy, waiting for guffman, best in show, christopher guest makes me pee my pants!, the royal tenenbaums, moulin rouge, romeo & juliet (w/claire danes), amelie, sleepy hollow (w/christina ricci), phantom of the opera, city of lost children, mermaids, home alone 2--I had to add that one since i've watched it about a million times and knew all the lines!!! all jurassic park movies--total fan, the 1st one was the best though, and i used to play out the scenes with my little bro and friends, slippery when wet, endless summer I, II, Bruce Brown's just a total genius! gidget, the whole bean collection, spongebob collection, the secret garden, napoleon dynamite, i have to say detroit rock city cuz i secretly think ed furlong's a stud, and totally beavis and butthead do america!!! most vampire/dracula movies. love watching the audrey hepburn and marilyn monroe... and that's just some! i'd be here all day if i named them all...i've been a member to blockbuster.com for a while now. 4 movies at a time baby, and no due dates! ok, then i began being a faithful member of netflix, and then, i decided to cut back on expenses and just read...(definition:cash=none).
i'll keep it short and simple here. me likes:
Hannah Montana, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Planet Earth and everything else the makers of that are making...including the deep sea stuff. and for some reason i like watching that show on Kimora Lee Simmons...she's flabbergastedly rude, it's funny.
when dreams come true, when God writes your love story, God's blogs, the great divorce, amphigorey, amphigorey too, amphigorey also--edward gorey's a master!, alice in wonderland (i have like 1..2..3..4! different versions including pop-up-book versions!), life of pi, the curious incident of the dog in the night-time, lonely doll books, the lion, the witch and the wardrobe, dracula--so, so good! it made me rent all the vampire movies i could find, probably like 20 or more? goodness...--by the way, save yourself some time by
NOT ever watching Bram Stoker's Dracula (w/keanu reeves and winona ryder even though i love her, it was so disappointing!), da vinci code--(even though there's a huge stigma on it, it's still a great read) i could NOT put it down--no, even better was angels and demons! i read each one in about a day. the divine revelation of hell, captivating, angela's ashes, lovely bones, amy tan's stuff is all great, the Bible--it is incredibly...INCREDIBLE, eventhough i'm totally not even done reading it yet. it is really, really good! it helps me out everyday when i read it. no wonder it's the international bestseller!
first of all, God. then...my mom, then it has to be...captain planet! hehehe
