I dig cinematography, literature, documentaries, italian films, french films, queer films, indy films, most any foreign film, beautiful imagery, poetry, prose, philosophy, dark chocolate, Canadian chocolate, Winnipeg arts, Winnipeg friends, cinema, theatre, painting, art, trancendence in art, all forms of art, oils, movies, writing, raw screenplays,acting, photography, sticks, dance, music, travel, expressionism,
abstrationism, symbolism, nature, forests, mysteries, hermeticism, making questions, as well as drinking coffee and tea.

I adore autumn, long walks, surrealist art, antiques, anything vintage, black and white photos, graphic arts, digital photgraphy, daydreaming, conversations, dreams, the twilight,
and writing all night long** tasty** little** nuggets** * I enjoy burritos without beef * * I think HTML is sexy * I say geeky things "let's IM. " I think listening to Goldfrapp is *almost* better than sex * - so is a post-cardio rush.. well, it *can* be..i love weights + cardio* mmm..yes!..and sweaty-ness!**terrible driver.. really!**self-described netflix whore****tea over coffee**i think sleep is the enemy**
* I consider thongs optional *watching someone eat fast makes me lose my appetite.*I have rare cravings (guilty pleasures?) for silly pop + vintage country-western .. * I prefer dark wine but adore chardonnay* I am not a wine snob*I am loyal* I am true* I make an unbelievable friend**
*Oh yeah, and I'm somewhat convinced we're all stuck inside a time machine thats playing slightly fast-forward*
no really!I believe in the power of tranquility without thought
I try not to think every moment that I am awake.
I enjoy shutting off the mental noise inside my head.
The gaps and spaces, the silence and call to attention to the stillness of life.
waka...waka.. ..Ah, ma intenant mon Franais est bon. Je peux parler et crire en franais sans problmes. -Amo scrivere in tutte le lingue. Godo parlare italiano. -Eu aprendi um pouco imprimir uma mulher que eu fui atrado a. - but that is a secret. *smile*I am not fluent in any of these languages. I just enjoy the diversity.
the arts, theater, literature, classic films, photography, playing with my children and so much more..
my life is brilliant..
I FIND IT HARD TO SIT STILL.Every human is an artist. The dream of your life is to make beautiful art. - RUIZ
"You are not just a meaningless fragment in an alien universe, briefly suspended between life and death, allowed a few short-lived pleasures followed by pain and ultimate annihilation.
Underneath your outer form, you are connected with something so vast, so immeasurable and sacred, that it cannot be spoken of - yet I am speaking of it now.
I am speaking of it now not to give you something to believe in but to show you how you can know it for yourself." - Tolle
.plh.“Death is not the biggest fear we have; our biggest fear is taking the risk to be alive - the risk to be alive and express what we really are.”- Ruiz.

What do I like mostly? Independent films, docu-s, and quiry bad-acting queer stuff. I am currenly at 6 at a time with my NETFLIX subscription. Bastards! You have to love them to hate them. I love them when I get my movies.. but I hate the fact that my return slips come from freakin' Florida. *ARG!* - Should be Fargo - only half the time. Anyway, When I wasn't in school I was at 8 - the max. *sigh* Yes, I love movies..
Lily, Lily, Lily. Wes Anderson films, most examples of formalism, film noir... If you are here you must know the important influence of film in my life. Tres Important !! There are too many films to mention.
SO much CINEMA.. So LITTLE Time.
- And yet, I begin... (tick, tock goes the clock and the race to see more) I (heart) the huckabees, x3, + the celluloid closet are near the player right now...I watched "Gilda" last night..I want to be a novelist, essayist, producer, playwright, successful screenwriter and provocateur ! Doesn't everybody?
Honestly, I consider myself an affectionado so, all genres and styles appeal to me except horror. I could never find any pleasure in subversive violence. Trust me, I tried and yes, I know its art.. but I do feel its [film in our lives] influence is lasting + legendary. Christopher Nolan fan.. Wes Anderson as well as Frank Capra...I can't really aptly describe the influence of film in my life... *sigh* sorry, wish I could.
