About Me

What the hell do I know about what I want. I'm in the hands of destiny - I'm running with it. Let's be surprised together...

My Interests



add this to your site

Music:

Genesis, Bettie Mae Fikes, Prince, Kiss, Stevie Wonder, Guns N Roses, George Clinton and Parliament, Def Leppard, Boston, Lenny Kravitz, George Michael, Extreme, Led Zeppelin, Whitesnake, The Cure, The Smiths, Depeche Mode, Queensryche, Madonna, Pink Floyd, Beastie Boys, Moloko, Billie Holiday, Jennifer Holliday, Lionel Richie, Earth Wind and Fire, Ludwig Van Beethoven, Sergei Prokofiev, Miles Davis, Journey, Joe Arroyo, Nine Inch Nails, Billy Joel, Elton John...and the list goes on...

Movies:

Doctor Detroit, West Side Story, Blue Bird (70s version), Emanuelle et les Filles de Madame Claude, Love at First Bite, Flashdance, Stayin' Alive, Hero.Look, I only like movies from my childhood or musicals. There are not THAT many to be honest...I like Chinese Cinema, Musicals, Documentaries, Independent Films and various fun and funny movies.More interesting is my banned list. This list consists of those "actors," "directors", and "stars" who have failed to entertain me and have been removed from my sphere of existence as such:Tom Hanks Tom Cruise Julia Roberts Nicholas Cage Meg Ryan Steven Spielberg Kevin SpaceyThese actors are guilty of pretentiousness, playing themselves in every film, making unbearably long and boring movies or thinking way too much of their own talent and believing that everything they do should win an Oscar.

Television:

You know what, I cancelled my cable years ago. Furthermore, I haven't turned on my television in months. Yup, I've written off TV.

Books:

Ok, so recently I read the following books...Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime, Social Anarchy, The Myth of You and Me, The Oxford Murders, A Complicated Kindness. I liked them I guess. Currently, reading A History of God.

Heroes:

People you haven't heard of yet...but you will...
