About me:

Well, what do you want to know? I'm German, female, snarky, sarcastic, ironic, realistic, pessimistic, romantic, procrastinating perfectionist, tolerant of almost everything - completely intolerant when it comes to blatant and willful stupidity - fangirl, slash lover, and also shiny, sparkly and brilliant.
I'm not a genius, but not stupid either. Seems to me sometimes that I know a little bit about everything. I like designing my own websites and to explore the possibilities. I'm interested in photography, but somehow never get around to actually using my camera. I like playing around with Photoshop.

When it comes to music - well, it's a wide, wide field. I like almost everything and don't limit mself to certain genres. In fact, just don't talk about genres with me, because I don't get it anyway. I like what I like.

(What I generally don't like though is rap, hip hop, house and techno. Go figure.)

Anyway, I've been known to listen to AC/DC as well as Vonda Shepard, Gackt as well as ZZ Top, Gianna Nannini as well as Keith Urban, Placebo as well as Boston.

Right now I'm mostly listening to Kenny Wayne Shepherd, who is - in one word - awesome.
The one I will forever and always come back to since I fell in love with his music two years ago is Christian Kane and his band Kane.

With movies things get a little more difficult, because I don't have favorites. Sure, there are a lot of movies I like, but none of which I'd say 'That's it, that is the best I've ever seen'.
Like with music there aren't any genres I prefer. Action, thriller, romance, comedies, drama, it all depends how the writing, the acting and the story come together.
Two movies which come close to being 'favorites' though are Dogma and Black Hawk Down.

TV, now that's easier, because I only watch shows that I love. Really, why else would you sit down and invest that much time into something?
Right now the one on top of the list is NCIS, followed closely by Leverage. Bones, Supernatural, Castle and Friday Night Lights are on there too. NCIS: Los Angeles most likely will be after I've seen a few more episodes, the beginning looked promising.

For anything else you want to know about me - I guess you'll have to get to know me.
