-Waste of-
-Paint- I've never truly had any interests, at least not in any in-depth way, or something that I'm particularly proud of, or that I can easily define.
I can't really think of something that has moved me, pushed me, or pulled me. I wouldn't consider myself great at anything. There are people in the world with drive, motivation, and ambition; these people focus on specific interests to such an extent that they excel in life because of their interests.
When you excel at something you are interested in it begins to define you.
I have yet to excel at any single interest in my life.
-Stuff-
I like a lot of things: Animals, Art, Photography, Architecture, Driving fast, Drawing, Sex, Science, Sociology, Diseases of the mind or body, Video games, Comedy, Acting / The Theater, Modeling, Physical fitness, Clothing, Kissing, Traveling, Flying, Crying, and love.
-Blue-
-& Unwell-
I'm not all together here or there. I've been told that I wear my feelings on my sleeves. I am melancholy and have been depressed since childhood. There is a lingering sense of sadness that gathers like a storm at the edge of my awareness. There are things that can make me cry easily, that set me off, sad movies, and music especially has a strong effect. I go through cycles where I fall apart completely and have to put myself back together.
-Unfiltered-
The acuteness of my depression coincides my sensitivity towards external stimulus. External sadness makes me sad and happiness makes me happy. I can see someone cry, and be compelled to do the same, and external anger overwhelms me. I think of it as an emotional overflow.
-The Mute-
-Button-
So for the most part I shut myself off, down, and I am usually very quiet and reserved. I feel disconnected and separate, wholly apart from everyone else. Trapped in my own bubble, and I guess that makes me lonely.
-Options-
"When you're depressed you have to assess your most fundamental humanity. You have to try to figure out who you are, why you're in the world, why you should stay in the world. What constitutes your strength or your weakness. You have to grapple with all those things to get through a depression. Seems to me that depression makes you take your own measure... And it obliges you to make difficult decisions... about staying alive." -Andrew Solomon.
- TITS OR GTFO -
I'm interested in people who are innate achievers, people who possess amazing talents or skills. As far my sexual preference goes, I like girls, All kinds; Tall, short, skinny, or thick. I heart Tomboys, punks, freaks, hipsters, and geeks. Whatever makes me happy, and suits my fancy. For the most part the standing criteria is that you have to be some kind of fucking creep, apparently.
- Blah blah blah-
A person's every nuance can't possibly be completely encompassed by a myspace profile. I see precious little reason in sending people messages such as: "Hello, You're simply splendifferous! I think you're aesthetically pleasant looking! Let's be friends!" The Friends request in and of itself is suffice. Supposing two people share common interests, that doesn't mean they will clique... And I can't tell who I will clique with prior, only in hindsight.
Besides- there's something like 8 billion people on the planet, and they sure as hell don't just knock on your door.
"All that most maddens and torments; all that stirs up the lees of things; all truth with malice in it; all that cracks the sinews and cakes the brain; all the subtle demonisms of life and thought; all evil, to crazy Ahab, were visibly personified, and made practically assailable in Moby Dick. He piled upon the whale’s white hump the sum of all the general rage and hate felt by his whole race from Adam down; and then, as if his chest had been a mortar, he burst his hot heart’s shell upon it."
- Moby Dick, Herman Melville

AIM: Joachim Mizrahi
-Noise-
I have an inclination towards indie music.
I like music, but I don't think it defines me as a person.
I can play the guitar, and kind of sing, have always thought about joining a band. I've always dreamed of taking classical piano lessons. I've also longed to see the opera Carmen performed live.

-Celluloid-
My favorite writers are Noah Baumbach and Wes Anderson.I rarely get out to the cinema, whenever I end up going to the movies I always feel cheated out of $10 dollars and robbed of a few hours of my life... I'd like to go complain at the box office, ask for my time back, but I'd probably just waste it anyway...

I like these movies, But wouldn't stand by them as works of art, I just find them entertaining. If you're one of those elitist film buffs that defines yourself through the movies you've seen, I'm going to kindly ask you to stop being a pretentious bitch, get out there and try to make your own fucking art instead of trying to define yourself through someone else's work; "That is very cheap, and it underminds human dignity and intelligence."

-Chapter 11-
I have only read five books in my entire life.
"Fear and Loathing"
"The Noonday Demon"
"Anthem"
"Fight Club"
-Anti heroes-
One time, I went to a book store with the intention of buying "Paradise lost" and "Dante's inferno". The concepts behind the stories are amazing, but the poetic writing styles made reading them too arduous for me to deal with, I gave up after 30 minutes.
-Whaling-
I read most of Moby Dick by Herman Melville, the first two chapters are amazing. The dialog in the movie is awesome. Fuck the book.
-Influences-
I don't have any heroes. If I had a hero, they'd probably be someone that is dead. I've never had a hero, just a multitude of flawed mentors.
I am quite fond of Abraham Lincoln, Freddie Mercury, Leeroy Jenkins, Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche, Alan Watts, Richard Feynman, and Godzilla.
-The world-
You know what? The world is a shitty place, full of shitty people; that do shitty things to themselves and to others.
Galileo wasted his time with the Copernican theory. The sun really isn't the center of our solar system, you are asshole.
