Hey peoples...

About Me



Hmm... I dunno. To know me is to love me. For real tho'... I hate describing myself. Just holla at me and you can be the judge. ..

My Interests

Massage, Reiki, music, dancing, festivals, live bands, the great outdoors, travel, culture, philosophy, anthropology, documentaries, art, and anything else that makes me raise an eyebrow.

I'd like to meet:

Cool, inteligent, sexy, funny, happy, enlightened, crazy, strange, fantastic, hipsters like yourself! Get Your Own! | View Slideshow

Music:

Hip hop, drum n bass, breaks, electro, funky house, roots, reggae, dub, folk, trip hop, acid jazz, rnb, soul, funk, blues, and anything else I can shake my ass to.

Movies:

Hmm... too many too list. Off the top of my head... The Royal Tenenbaums, Run Lola Run, The Red Violin, Waking Life, Super Troopers, Best in Show, Waiting for Guffman, Rushmore, Fight Club, Snatch, The Princess Bride, Through the Looking Glass, Juice, Menace II Society, Friday, Dazed and Confused, Band Wagon, Carmen, Brigadoon, Shall we Dance (original), Harvey, Goodbye Mr. Chips, Ben Hur, Cleopatra, Singing in the Rain, Wizard of Oz, The Incredibles, Jackie Brown, Contact, Whats Love Got to Do with It, Love & Basketball, Crooklyn, Mandela, Love Jones, The Usual Suspects, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Of Mice and Men, The Jerk, Lord of the Rings and anything and everything by Pedro Almodovar. Well, so much for naming a few. There are tons more that I can't think of... really I just enjoy movies. All genres... except for horrors... I scare too easily.

Television:

I don't have cable... so no regular tv programming for me. However... doesn't seem to stop me from becoming a Naruto addict. Along with downloading Heroes, LOST, Boondocks, Deadwood, The Family Guy, and The Chappelle Show. I still miss watching TLC and Much VIBE... can't get those in Taiwan.

Books:

I don't read nearly as much as I would like to. Right now I'm reading... Thus Spoke Zarathustra by Nietzsche. I just finished The Salt Roads, by Nalo Hopkinson. I have yet to ready a Paulo Coelho book I didn't like. Hmmm... I'm a Harry Potter fan... got me hooked.

Heroes:

The friends I've met along the way... you have all taught me something about life and myself. Thank you. My grandparents, I hope I can maintain the wisdom they gave me and live my life with the integrity they upheld.
