My favorite music to listen to is CELTIC!!(traditional & contemporary). Singer Loreena McKennitt is Phenomenal!
I have an eclectic interest in music but tend to be most attracted to World and New Age sounds,Folk, Bluegrass mountain music-(banjo, fiddle, harmonica), and Contemp. Swing. I also love classical- esp. Pachebel's Canon D major or 3 violins and a cello.
I do NOT like RAP or SPEED Metal!
I love music from the 60's-Woodstock! but 80’s music has a special place in HEART because that is MY generation. I still love that music:
The ALARM, A-Ha, Depeche Mode, Big Country, Dexys, The Fixx, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Def Leppard, Culture Club, Sade, Psychedelic Furs, U2, Bananarama and so on…To me, that was the BEST ERA OF MUSIC.
Movies
Lord of the Rings (all 3), Merlin, Willy Wonka (1971 original version), Oliver Twist (Roman Polanski directed 2005) Dangerous Liasons, Elizabeth, Time Bandits, White Chicks, anything Monty Python!!, Scary Movie 2, Pirates of the Caribbean (Dead Man's Chest), Shawshank Redemption, Name of the Rose, The 6th Sense, In the Mouth of Madness, Photographing Fairies, any Ray Bradbury story, any type of ghost story movie and of course Comedies--I LOVE TO LAUGH!
Television
TV?? What is THAT?? I really don't like TV and hardly ever watch it. Mindless thing....Too many stupid reality shows anyway..If I do, it is usually the Learning and Discovery Channels, CSI Las Vegas or VH1 Behind the Music.
Books
Alice in Wonderland--Lewis Carroll is either brilliantly mad or madly brilliant! I also like to read any kind of Art book or Natural Health and Healing book. I love the Griffin and Sabin 6 book series by Nick Bantock-You won't be able to put it down!

Marla Calandra-Designer I have decided to go HOME this summer & NOT go to CA. There are people & a certain black cat who needs & is waiting for me there view more
Anyone who knows me will tell you I am not your average girl. I am an independent, successful and ambitious person. I am not afraid to be on my own or to go against the general flow of public opinion when it comes to something I am passionate about or strongly believe in.
I love ART and Medicine and I am fortunate enough to live the best of both worlds. I am a Registered and Licensed Occupational Therapist and currently work as traveling therapist where I get to travel anywhere in the USA for 3 month periods at a time.
I also worked as a Teaching Associate at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia where I taught Neuro-Anatomy Lab --Yup! You read right--Human Brain dissection! Loved it~!
I am also a Jewelry and Handbag Designer. I craft custom design jewelry pieces from wire, Czech glass, Swarovski crystals and semi-precious stones-I also sew and design handbags and totes from vintage and contemporary fabrics. My design website is: www.MarlaCalandraDesigns.com
I am also a self-trained graphic Artist/Designer, primarily working with musicians and rock bands doing album cover art, web designs/page layouts, animation and promo art work.
I can honestly say I am never bored!...And SLEEP has now become something of a commodity to me..I bargin with it..However, I find it rather a nuisance, as there is so much more I want to do but not enough time in the day.
