New Opportunities, music, life...
You! Kimberly Aiken, Miss America 1994. Arthur Rubinstein , pianist. Frederick Chopin, my FAVORITE composer. Maria Callas, the great diva and operatic soprano.
I'm a classical pianist so I love the classics, Bach, Mozart, Brahms, mostly Chopin. Also I'm a fan of the Russians like Rachmaninoff and Scriabin... not big on Stravinsky or Prokofief or anything very modern (except I do like John Adams' "Nixon in China"). I love Maria Callas the great opera diva. I love Ella Fitzgerald. Favorite popular singer is Beyonce'. Guess what? I also really like some country, especially Shania Twain and Gretchen Wilson ( you know ,"Red Neck Woman") ! lol After all, I am a southern girl.
My favorite right now is "Pretty Woman" with Julia Roberts...I also liked the new Superman movie, Hitch, and Wedding Crashers. I like hillarious comedies and romantic love stories ( I can't help it, I'm a girl...)
My favorite show is "A Diffferent World" the sitcom from the late 80's /early 90's where a group of black college kids go to school together at "Hillman"! It was just so positive and idealized and funny. Does anyone else remember that show? The romance between Whitley Gilbert and Dwayne Wayne was HOT. I occasionally get hooked on "American Idol" and "Sex in the City"... and I also love "Aqua Teen Hunger Force" ( I have all the DVD'S courtesy of my boyfriend, Darren who first introduced me to the show). Meatwad is the cutest :) Last, but not least, CHAPELLE SHOW ! How funny is that man? I wish he would come back...
Lately,I'm more of a catalog/ magazine person. I do like Steinbeck and Ayn Rand though. "The Fountainhead" changed my life.
I usually don't use the word hero, ( it makes me think of Superman) but I'd have to say on a personal level, my mom has been a hero in my life. My boyfriend is a United States Marine (enough said?) Yes... be afraid. Be very afraid. (I'm mostly kidding.) Jesus Christ is also one of my heroes.
