MUSIC, n I guess I like art -that is what I got a degree in..., Anime, music, concerts, poetry, thoughts, ideas, contemplations, spirituality, humanity, the human condition, psychology & sociology (though I don't subscribe to either...you have to think about both- one is too broad the other is too narrow), taking photos, guitar...I'm still trying to learn-its comin' along pretty well considering I thought I'd never be able to learn(lefthanded guitar players rule!), I'm interested in learning any instruments, um makin stuff, graphic arts, I'm into music related art such as concert poster art er cd cover type stuff, music promotion, ...hmm *shrugs*...

Television
don't watch tv too much. but I seem to have a random obsession with king of the hill, I dunno why. I just can't seem to get enough of it. haven't seen it for a while. I love flight of the concords, I wish I could watch that show. so I dont watch much lately but I like the forensic files shows, law n order, n sci-fi type shows like x-files n dr. who, yes I am a dork. I also love anime though I don't get to watch it much on tv lately...always dug all the diff anime...such as cowboy bebop, outlaw star, tenchi, inuyasha, kenshin, android kikidor, lets see um...case closed, I can't remember the rest...hmm love watching music oriented junk n vids/docs...only get to see the good music channels at my bros though, I also like futurama... hmm n the golden girls(those ladies are outta it). n whatever thats all I can think of. mostly I wonder aimlessly through the zombie inducing world of the tv planet. oh n I was watching scrubs for a while. that show is pretty funny. I dunno the best public show is austin city limits.
Books
some favorites that I can recall right now-
Harry Potter:); I love edgar allen poe's writings/poetry; Interview with the vampire; a lonesome night in october, Dream Catcher; feed...as I lay dying, I just finished memoris of a geisha. there were alot more like literary books but strangely I can't recall the titles, I like reading books about different relig/spiritualities but haven't done that for a while. Candide was crazy too. all quiet on the western front, n I'll add some more later
white oleander, harum scarum....I like old childrens books...old poetry books. that makes it seem like I dont read much. which I dont read as often as I should but I do actually read alot, its just usually random books. I have a large random book/vintage book collection.
Heroes
those who do not live to merely exist but instead exist so that they may truly live...perhaps I too can learn from them to someday do the same.
About me: so I deleted the interesting ditty about the bear costume beings...if you missed that, I am so sorry that you missed out. you wont be able to say you were there when...
maybe I'll say something clever later :)
oh yeah i guess I'll add this. music is my favorite thing. I like playing/making music though I am technically horrible at guitar...but I guess I have to appreciate that because I appreciate other people's music that comes from a similar place....
variety makes the world interesting.
"A heart that's full up like a landfill, a job that slowly kills you, bruises that won't heal
You were so tired, happy, bring down the government, they don't, they don't speak for her
I'll take the quiet life, a handshake of carbon monoxide
No alarms and no surprises, no alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
Silent, silent
This is my final fit, my final bellyache with
No alarms and no surprises, no alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises, please
Such a pretty house, such a pretty garden
No alarms and no surprises, no alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises, please"

uhhh, sorry Nae - same ole story for me. I've taken on more than I can handle. I tried to drop out of my class - long story - switched to another - week behind. Now I have an internship offer and the guy is going to wait for me to finish my class I'm in....hopefully. It hit me today that I told you I would send a cd and still haven't. I'm the worst - you and your sis have been so gracious to me, and here I am, can't even send a cd. Sorry - we live in the ghetto and don't have a post office nearby or it would've been done already. Lame excuse, I agree. I'll quit making promises, but I'll tell you that you're def. on my mind. Please don't give up on me ha ha.
lol it was a candy filled robot that I got at target. It had tart hearts and those dumb conversation hearts. Plus it only cost me 40 cents! I'm tempted to call it Nae since it's all girly/emo/squiddy :D Hard to believe I graduate in in 6 weeks. I just ordered some graduation cords and stuff for my superfab grades. Mizzez teh squiddzorz :(
So far, Arizona State, UNiv. of Nebraska, and *gasp* UNM are my top choices. Texas was considered until I saw it was 52k per year....and I didn't want to have a mortgage's worth of loan debt. lol I noticed the Yale Art Center went dead...so sign or thingies the last time I saw it. Film is good...I think I have over 1500 movies lol Hmmm....seems it's time for a bloogie....and yes, your pic is an AWWWW!!! *squiddyhug*

lol *misses you* Well, I'm gonna take the GRE (again!) in late June, they try the GRE English test in November. By December, I hope to get my all my grad school apps in. Soooooo.....Kev will be around Albuturkey for another year and a half yet. The good thing is I have a plan, unlike 2004 when I just winged it and came to this town...How are you, SQUIDDIKINZ??? :D:D:D
