"The day I drop dead will be the day that public high schools are made interesting and a politician makes an intelligent decision. I will henceforth proceed to roll in my grave and complain about it just as much as I did in life."

-The Dear Webmistress

FANLISTED:

                 

Name. Anything other than "bitch" or "hoe" will suffice.
Age. Too young for you. Don't go there.
Area of Residence. There's going to be a summarily enormous earthquake here someday.
Area of Career Interest. Directing, screenwriting. Novel writing. Corporate design.

Mass of Likes.
The personal computer and its possibilities. Tiffany, my partner in crime. Biology. Black cassocks. Cheese aged over twenty months. Making stuff up. Rain. Black umbrellas. Antique military uniforms. Latin. Thick clouds. Cathedrals. Asian fashion dolls. Germany. Russian history, especially the February and October Revolutions. Conspiracy theories. Candy corn. Sour Icebreakers. War movies. Baroque furniture. Rows of bookshelves. That gong that opens the New York Stock Exchange. Professional clothing. White lilies.

Mass of Dislikes.
Children. High school. Patrick Dempsey. Girly, 'cute' movies. Other people's relationships. "Intelligent Design". Creepy teachers and online perverts. Hot weather. My own hair. Jane Austen. Math. Upbeat, hyperactive musical theater. Most colors. Extracurricular activities that force me to leave the house. Computer problems I am incapable of solving by myself. Current-event politics; it's so much more fun to argue about ones that are already dead. Contrived teen 'idols' like Zac Efron and Hannah Montana, or Miley Cyrus, or Destiny Hope Cyrus, or whatever schitzophrenic identity she's now taken on. Things that are unduly expensive.

"If you told me I'm going to go to Hell, I would tell you that Heaven would be so lonely without you."

Music be the food of life.
Evanescence. Michiru Oshima. The Holy Trinity of Film Scoring: John Williams, Hans Zimmer, and Danny Elfman. Michael Kamen. Jerry Goldsmith. James Bond opening themes. Frederic Chopin. Nobuo Uematsu. Ludwig van Beethoven. Nightwish. Richard Wagner. Mozart's Requiem Mass. Basshunter. The Ragnarok Online soundtrack. Nino Rota. Traditional folk melodies, like Brahms' Hungarian Dances and the theme from Schindler's List.

Music and I go way back. I both play and compose for the piano, and have no intention of halting either any time soon. I'm a firm believer in the idea that the best films are worthless without their brilliant soundtracks. People who say they like 'all genres' are usually exaggerating, but I make a point to find songs I like in every genre possible.
