Lots of Stuff...
I like Stuff in general really...
Stuff is good...
And I like Alliteration...and pretty sounding words...
I like playing my guitar...
Or playing the piano, when I can manage to find one...
I love bashing my bodhran (Irish drum) when I feel stressed cause it makes me less stressed :D but it lives in a different land to me now...I miss the little chap!
I love travelling and meeting new people, seeing new places, learning about different cultures and ways of life...
And I've always adored taking photos, usually in black and white...I'm a little old fashioned in that respect...but you can't beat developing and printing your own photos...I love the darkroom...
I even hope to be a photographer when I grow up! :D
An Alien from Outer Space...PLEASE!
Or, alternatively, since meeting an alien may not be completely possible at the moment, I'd settle for a leprechaun...or any magical, mythical being for that matter!
Everything and anything...but in particular I seem to be drawn to anything Moody, Moving and Melancholic...
I'm constantly getting lost in the land of myspace because it's so brilliant for new music, but old music, which for me is anything from the 60's, will always be a favourite because it reminds me of my childhood and our roadtrips to a little village called Kilbritain where I spent many Summers :0) Happy Days...
There are so many amazing music makers but some of my favourites are:
The Beatles
The Beach Boys
U2
Mundy
The Frames
The Swell Season
Radiohead
Coldplay
Snow Patrol
Boards of Canada
Rodrigo y Gabriela
Jose Gonzalez
Yann Tiersen
Xavier Rudd
Imogen Heap
Faithless
Dido
Air
Feck it...the list's endless!
My top 3 have got to be:
Stand by Me
The Shawshank Redemption
Little Miss Sunshine
Followed extremely closely by Aliens, the second one. I absolutely adored it and was completely lost in it the first time I saw it as a kid. It's hard to believe that film's celebrating it's 21st birthday this year!
24
Lost
CSI
Stargate
Sliders
Star Trek
Yes I'm a GEEK, and fully aware of the fact, but at least I'm not a trekee...well I don't think I am, I just like programmes about space, other planets and parallel universes...oh, that could possibly make me a trekee actually!
I am perhaps the worst reader in the whole world...
I have this tremendously bad habit of only reading books that have lots of pictures in them...usually photography books...actually you can't even call it reading cause I tend to just look at the photos and skip the words entirely...mmmh and I listed alliteration as one of my interests...so I like words...just not reading them...how strange!
Some of us were born readers...I think I might be missing that particular gene!
People who...
Try to make a difference when up against incredible odds...
Or show the world something that would otherwise go unseen...
Or someone who just says the right thing at the right time...
So many ordinary people are heroes...and they don't even know it...
