There is no art that does not demand virtuosity

About Me

I'm an artist so I tend to be overly dramatic about love and life...I have a flair for the dramatics...nevertheless, I'm very grounded. I have both my feet where it should be. I'm very passionate about theater...the stage is my sanctuary, the one place I could let go of all the pressures of my everyday human or alien existence...my fairy land.. I love the overwhelming complexities of everyday life... Most recently, I have come to a conclusion that I am a masochist... that I love the challenge of having someone or something so unattainable…and that I secretly revel at the pain of what I cannot attain.http://shiksagoddess.easyjournal.com

My Interests

Swimming (I try to swim at least once or twice a week. I so desperately miss being able to cut through water already...I miss the smell of chlorine), reading fabulous books, shopping for books/clothes/shoes and bags that I don't intend to use...well at least not in a couple of months...painting, surfing the net, watching movies, collecting faerie/mermaid/dolphin thingies, watching plays and debating about it afterwards, going out of town with my baby boy, baking (this I do when I have the luxury of time), hanging out with my friends, listening to my broadway albums collection, bumming around the house, having my nails done, going to the gym, singing all my troubles away, staring outside my window, walking hand in hand with the man I love, laughing at myself, bathing in moonlight, acting silly, dancing to silence and watching my handsome superstar sing and wiggle his buns.

I'd like to meet:

I would love to meet people who are artistic, confident and even cocky but with an underlying modesty that is somewhat humbling. People who possess a wicked sense of humuor...who can swat it right back to me... who can make me feel challenged.

Music:

I'm a sucker for musicals (broadway, off broadway, off-off broadway...) from Into the Woods, Nine, Gypsy, Flower Drum Song, Mamma Mia, Mr. Producer, Once on this Island, Closer than Ever, Song and Dance... down to... Frog and Toad. My all time favorite is Jason Robert Brown's "The Last Five Years." I know all the songs by heart.Just like theater, I find music to be an exquisite art that depicts the wide expanse of human emotions. And just like dance, music is at its finest during its "in betweens."

Television:

six feet under, queer as folk, satc,simpsons, charmed, that 70's show, marina, csi, 24

Books:

I have a library at home...my collection ranges from fictions, romance novels, short stories of Allende and Updike, biographies, make-up books, theater books, all of Shakespeare's works including his sonnets, plays by classic and contemporary (great and not-so great) playwrights from around the world, poetry, opera books, dance, self-help books (gifts from friends...I don't believe in them much. I don't want anybody telling me how to live my life...but I read it anyway) acting books, faerie books, witches (yep...a non-practing witch =p) books...and a wide collection of Sweet Valley kids/high/college, Sweet Dreams, Love Stories, Fear Street, Christoper Pike, VC Andrews (books that I used to collect back in elemetary and high school.) I always try to read in variety...When in a bad mood , I go for books such as Sintang Malayo, Sintang Malapit by Joi Barrios, Diary of a Mad Bride, Harry Potter Series, Bridget Jone's Diary and all that romantic syrupy books. Okay...I admit, I had a Jude Deveraux phase... I use to collect her books...hehehe =) When I'm being my usual weird self again, I read Tom Robbin's: Skinny Legs, Still Life of Woodpecker, Even Cow Girls Get the Blues... I also enjoy suspense: The Fan, Cycle of Violence, The Da Vinci Code; thrillers/erotic thrillers: Hannibal Series, The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty/Beauty's Release/Beauty's Punishment (a trilogy by Anne Rice) and all that philosophical stuff that Kundera writes: Unbearable Lightness of Being and Identity.

Heroes:

zhasha zaturna, darna, and wonder whoaman!!!

death and resurrection of an actor

Things have been rather uneventful on the acting side of things for me and I have been going insane. I mean I do not get depressed because I am not working. You must understand that I am not surprised...

His tune met mine

I vividly recal the time when I said to myself...I shall not be swept off my feet by a dog who cheats, a talentless scum who tries so very hard (I can be really cruel sometimes), a man who thinks that...

Will you share your life with me?

Question: "Will you share your life with me?" Answer: "I want to be your wife. I want to bear your child. I want to die knowing I had a long, full life in your arms. Forever, with you" =)

the ending and the beginning...

The night he kissed me changed my life or at least the way I looked at my life. It was one of those ordinary nights when you lay on your yellow couch musing on your existence. Thinking, should I, w...

angst of a villainess

I seem to be constantly cast as the villain these days. I am never the girl that gets the guy. Well, it was a chance to send the villainy things up a bit. I do enjoy playing villains but the thing i...

just a thought...

I used to be very intolerant if things did not go my way. Unless you do what you want, you please no one, neither yourself nor your audience. Compromise, taking parts you dislike, builds up a kind of ...
