My Interests

Stuff. Traveling: anywhere really, I'd like to see EVERYTHING, I once went on a walk to EVERYWHERE but I don't think I saw everything and I stopped short after someplace. Experiencing life interests me, its not what I have or what I've attained, its where I've been and what I've learned 3 I also have an unsaitable thirst for knowledge. My friend has a motorcycle, I like it, I want one. Parites are cool. As long as people are having a good time, its a party. Kids. I want to be a teacher and I'm well on my way. A 5 year old will teach you to take nothing for granted, because everything is new, exciting and spectacular to them. Check the world out through a 5 year olds eyes. Sometimes I try to garden...so I have some plants. Camping, I like to be outside, sometimes I put my girl guide skills to use. On occasion I get this creative urge, so I make things, but usually I just make a mess.

Music:

I'll listen to anything really...techno, trance, jungle, breaks. We've got a good electronic scene here. I guess some euro and freestyle. I'm expanding my musical horizons heeello dead, keller, sting cheese incident and Jack! I'm a late night sublime listener. At the same time I'm a huge Bowie fan, yeah I'm cool that way. Every so often you'll catch me rocking out to some oldies, Shania, Avril or Kelly Clarkson...then again I'm almost always rocking out. I like to sing in the car, I usually get caught and I sing unabashedly at work, we all do, it makes the time go by, it makes us smile, watch out Canadian Idol! Sometimes when I hear James Blunt I want to call people and sing over the phone to them...because James Blunt makes me sound good!

Movies:

Fav. movies? Empire Records and City of God are my fav's, followed by: Alice in Wonderland (disney and the people versions; "Through the Looking Glass"), Groove, The Cell, Kill Bill, Labrynth (did I mention I'm a Bowie fan?), Princess Mononoke,I 3 Huckabee's (this ones almost a bizzare addiction), Garden State, Constant Gardener...

Television:

I don't watch tv, except for Friends on dvd if that counts..

Books:

Currently: Krishnamurti: Education and the Significance of Life, Kerouac: On the Road, Lesh: Searching for Sound.

Heroes:

And then there were 9

So 3 weeks ago my brother brought home a little pup.  He's not a christmas pup, he's just a pup that found our home a little before x-mas, and he's moved himself in quite nicely.  His name i...

movement is not always action

I have a habit of doing nothing.  I move sideways and back, instead of forward. Like a crab. I'm indecisive, I'll wait and think for almost ever, making a decision is near impossible, asking for...

The feeling of something resonating in your soul. Shivers through your body, warmth in your heart.  The comfortable, the familiar.  Its almost like a truth, I've known you all forever and al...

p.s.

When Lori climbs to the top of some wild summit, Leon is right there beside her.  They do it together and they share that moment.  They HAVE moments. Thats why I love them.  I think tha...
