Music obviously; I also really like martial arts movies, eating in expensive places while having others pay, talking about the way the mind works (strange that i chose music and not psychology as a major, huh), meeting new people, working out, learning and applying chinese and japanese on the 5th floor, trying to make my new teacher laugh - and failing miserably, doing impressions and failing at those too, attempting to barter with the lady who works at harmony cafe every morning and failing at that as well, masterclasses, girls who are eccentric and outgoing (but not like weird hippie eccentric), collecting clarinet CDs, video games, sleeping, eating, days i can sleep in... the list goes on and on
Prince. Halle Berry. Will Smith. Natalie Portman. Miles Davis. Old friends, new friends. Anyone, really.
I like classical, jazz, r&b, klezmer, some newer reggae, 20th century music, very limited rock, starting to get turned on to the blues. my favorite composers are too many to list, but at the top are Mozart, Shostakovich, Rachmaninoff, Brahms, Prokofieff, and Percy Grainger. my top jazz artists: miles davis! john coltrane! charlie parker! michael brecker, eddie daniels... DON BYRON... ella fitzgerald, giora fiedman, ingrid jensen, and many more! for other genres, i like erykah badu, will downing, system of a down to name a couple. of course my favorite pop artist is Prince. alicia keys is phenomenal as well.
The Miles Davis Story, V for Vendetta, Harlem Nights, White Chicks, Kill Bill, Matrix, Star Wars, Bourne Identity, The Professional, X-men 3, Lilo and Stitch, Hero, Hotel Rwanda, Signs, Ong Bak, In Pursuit of Happyness.. many more
Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, the Simpsons, Futurama, WWE, Richard Pryor Show, In Living Color, Dave Chappelle..Sorry, I dont watch much TV. Lately, I've been watching lots (i mean LOTS) of Law and Order. ::looks at gerlaine::
I like Dan Brown a lot. I've read his books. I don't have much time (or patience) to read. I wish I did. I did buy a book on Dianetics though... perhaps I should read it??
My heroes are my mom and my dad who came to this country and built everything they have now from scratch. My brother is my hero because he has worked so hard and endured so much in order to make his life as happy as it is now. Deborah Pittman is my hero because she has believed in me from day one, and has supported me selflessly throughout the years.
