MUSIC MUSIC MUSIC oh and did I mention Music? I am a singer! I've been singing the good old opera since 2001. I've been in chorus' as well as many other groups such as opera workshops.I love to hear other singers and watch different performers do their thang! I think I've learned the most about singing/acting from other performers. aside of singing and performing when and where I can... I love to be crafty... make things for people and for myself... design and improve my home... and SHOP!!! I love to shop... wish I had more money! I hate grocery shopping though... probably cuz I've worked so long at a grocery store. And there are too many choices and I can't decide. I'm a open minded person, I like to try new things and be spontainious. I enjoy nature and animals and learning! I'm very social and somewhat talkative. Though I do avoid certain topics such as religious stuff, politics ect. I like to hang out with friends and do new things... learn from people and go to new places and history. But most of all... I LOVE ART and music... all different kinds!!! Some of my favorits are black and white photography as you can see from my page... artists such as: Victor J. Palagano III, Pelham Palmer, Byong-Ho (Brad) Kim, Benjamin Hess, Tim Thomas, Dylan Ricci, Dimitri Yeros, Jason Ellis, Howard Schatz, ***Herb Ritss***, Isabella Wirth, Robert John Guttke, David Micholak and so many others! I love sculptures, landscapes and paitings... basically anything artistic! ;)so yeah... as you can see I'm very diverse in my likings... I just wish I could always do that stuff... I usually keep busy with school and work... and performances.I like it when people amaze me with storys of their lives... I think i can relate to almost anyone and become friends with anyone of any age etc... but they've just got to give me the respect I deserve to give my heart out to them... which I think is logical!
I just moved to Oregon about a year ago from Tucson and looking for cool new friends who have some same interests as me... or who can at least respect my interests and can treat me well reguardless. I only want friends - good friends that I can depend on and friends that I can have fun with... do crazy things with and also talk about serious things at times... real people - ya know! I like people who have direction, who are confident with who they are- people who have a passion or people who can enjoy my passion! Gay guys please don't be overly self involved, superficial or fake with me... I really don't tollerate it well!Yeah sure love would be great to find... but I'm not expecting it from myspace or online for that matter... Almost a year ago I've had a friend get murdered from meeting someone offline... it is still unsettling for me to meet anyone offline... so if I do choose to see you... give me that respect. Friendship is always a great pleasure to me... I love my new friends... and friends who will stick around for a while!I cherish the great friends I already have! YOU GUYS ROCK!!! You know I'll always be there for you! :)A lil peep into my new life in P-town:The following top friends list are people who inspire, who show that they care by looking out for me and people who are REAL! Obviously a lot of people back in Tucson fit this section and they will always be thought of and loved by me... but these are the current angels in my life:
Music always is what I can count on to make me happy after a long hard day... particularly Opera and classical music... as you can tell by my choice in my music video or background music...
Get this video and more at MySpace.com
THIS VIDEO ABOVE: IS A VIDEO I MADE FOR MY FRIENDS IN PIMA COMMUNITY COLLEGE CHOIR... I MADE IT ALL OLD LOOKING ON PURPOSE... AKA- "THE GOOD OLD DAYS" - AND IF YOU ARE WONDERING... THAT WAS OUR CHOIR SINGING AVE MARIA...
:)
Often in movies when they have a classical song or Opretic song that I recognize I tend to completely forget about whats going on in that movie and just listen to the beauty of of the music... and then think of the story of the music if I know it... it may sound boreing to you... it is part of my life... and I will not surrender my one true love (music) for anyone!
Tho I listen to mostly Opera and classical these days... when I do listen to other stuff... I do still tend to have a wide range of likings... jazz, r&b, pop, sometimes rock and alternative, definately techno and soul.... and I love many of the following dispite what stupid things they may or may not have done... Alicia Keys, Joss Stone, Whitney Houston, Jessica Simpson, The Jackson Five, Josh Grobin, Ray Charles... and soooo many more that I just can't think of...I love musicals such as into the woods, my fair lady, Oklahoma, The sound of Music, A little night music *which I was in once- small minore role*, Godspell, Chicago, The company... and so many more... and Opera pieces from... La Boheme, Manon, Lakme, Porgy and Bess, The Pearl Fishers, Phantom of the Opera, Gypsy, Le Nozze di Figaro, Don Giovanni, Carmen, Sweeney Todd... songs that I've sung...John Rutter's Requiem, Mozart's Requiem, Coro di sciavi ebrei, La Traviata, The Gipsy chorus, The Pilgrims' chorus, Ave Maria, Elijah Rock, Lisbeslieder Walzer, America the Beautiful, Te Deum... and the list goes on and on...
And here is one of my favorits!!! "Una voce poco fa" which reminds me of my friends Rachell and Holly! I love you!!!
ENJOY!:
I like any type of movie... tho I prefer to go away feeling good about it... I like chick flics... moving stories about real life experiences... movies of history... comedy... you name it... I will watch almost anything... and can get into a lot of different types... I like classic movies, gay movies, funny movies, sad movies, scary and adventure the most- tho I also like acton and kiddy movies from time to time... I like to snuggle during movies... thats always fun! Some movies that I've watched and loved are this: Mr and Mrs Smith, The labrenth, Sister Act 1&2, Vanilla Sky, good porn, Leagally blond 1and2, The notebook, Ray, Rent, My Fair lady, Big fat greek wedding, Mean girls... ok this list goes on and on and I can't think right now... but there's a small idea! :)
I don't watch it... not any more... lol - in fact someone mentioned a sit com to me... and I thought it was a cartoon! I'm sooooo out of the television times... and when I do... I HATE the commercials... how do ppl put up with it??? And the trash thats on these days... come on... not for me... sorry besides... my mommy always told me not to watch "the devil's machine" -anyways... lol
Not currently readin any books... tho I have gone through a lot of sheet music! :P I've kept picking up books but not ever finishing them... I guess I've just been too a.d.d. to continue... but I'm trying to keep my focus. After battling trying to read it... its been one of those things that the author is just way out of the times for you... or you just don't understand his point when it comes to some things... all in all I think I'm doing ok- but yeah... I'd rather loose myself in a fantacy book instead of reading that other book... tho I probably do need a few pointers... but oh well - isn't that what friends are for?
This is a tough section for me to fill out.... let me just discribe it with pictures instead...
