Everything....I love to learn! I sing, so naturally I like music of all types. I value my alone time, but I love my friends and try to enjoy having fun in a crowd as much as I do alone. I don't always succeed at that. Travel.....lived in Italy for 6 months as an undergrad and I'm dying to go back.I love to cook. I'm a vegetarian, so most of what I cook is too. But it's yummy, I swear. I love my wine red and full-bodied and my food spicy. No white-girl five star for me, baby, I want the real thing!
superheros, supervillains, caring, considerate, fun-loving and luscious boys and girls.
Where to start? First of all, I can find something in any genre that I can appreciate for some reason or another. I can't think of any R&B that I like off the top of my head, but I'm sure there's something. I really don't enjoy much country, but Johnny Cash and Patsy Cline are still superstars in my book. Hmm....Pixies, Radiohead, Maximo Park, Ligabue, David Bowie, Jovanotti, Concrete Blonde, Fugees, Mahler, Wagner, Bizet, Debussy, Puccini, Verdi, John Coltrane, Thelonius Monk, Miles Davis, Ani DeFranco, Bjork, Tori Amos, the Strokes, the Shins, Violent Femmes, NIN, VNV Nation, Skinny Puppy, Dead Kennedys, Dead Milkmen, Sex Pistols....get the picture? 90.3 is a pretty safe bet, radio-wise, for me.
And you thought my tastes in music were eclectic....Krzysztof Kieslowski's Three Colors trilogy, Kurosawa's Ran, Gilliam's Brazil and 12 Monkeys (not so in love with Gilliam's other post-Monty Python stuff), Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke, Akira, Ghost in the Shell, So I married an Axe Murderer, The Animatrix, Hindi film Saaya, Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket, and of course, A Clockwork Orange, Parker's Angel Heart, Benigni's La Vita è bella, Radford's Il Postino, Sofia Coppola's Lost in Translation, any project that Tim Burton was involved in!
huh? Actually, dirty pleasures of the mindless kind include Lost and......can't think of much else right now.
The Sparrow, the Illuminatus Trilogy, Ecotopia, anything by Dostoyevsky, Huxley, Calvino, Haruki Murakami or Sciascia. I read a lot, so it's hard to name favorites.
Mother Theresa and Gandhi. Seriously.
