I'd like to meet:
artists and art addicts. visionaries. someone who will lie with me for hours listening to jimmy eat world, and not because i want them to. and someone who will get me a pet penguin, of course.
and people who support the ecofriendly movement behind the charity i run with my friend marwan!
Music:
i don't really care that this section is obnoxiously long... i find all of these musicians to be pretty amazing in one way or another. whether i tattoo my body with their words or dance around my room to their songs, i think they all belong here.
