About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Escape the clutches of gravity!

ABOUT ME

I am an actor and a musician. More recently a graduate student studying TV Journalism.

PHILOSOPHY

Do not take society into consideration, they will only slow you down. Follow your passion, your passion will lead you to your dreams. Love, with all that you have. Life is beautiful, even if you feel that it sucks. Learn to enjoy the small things. If you stop looking, it will find you. Take Art in. Art in any form. Let it inspire you. Never believe or think that you are done learning. Not even if you die. Never think that you have reached the top. Because there's nowhere to go from there but down. Experiment. Meditate. Take twenty minutes out of your day for yourself. Daydream. Life Is Beautiful, or have I said that already?

Music, Movies, and Books

Oh, this gets harder!!

Ok, music - I listen to good music; regardless of genre or origin. Some bands I frequent include: Stereolab, Radiohead, The Incredible String Band, The Doors, Camel, Pink Floyd, Phideaux, The Gathering, The Beatles, Captain Beefheart (& His Magic Band).

Movies - American Beauty, Cashback, Casino Royale, Donnie Darko, Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind, Fight Club, Goodfellas, High Fidelity, Kevin Smith’s View-Askew Movies, L’auberge Espagnole, Le Fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain, Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Love Actually, Memento, Nolan's Batman, Pink Panther (the old ones), Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, Revolver, Saw, Snatch, Star Wars, Swingers, The Air I Breathe, The Big Lebowski, The Big Sleep, The Butterfly Effect, The Dreamers, The Fountain, The Life of David Gale, The Maltese Falcon, The Matrix, The Party, The Shawshank Redemption, The Usual Suspects, The Wall, Unbreakable, Vanilla Sky, When Harry Met Sally, White Oleander. I've probably forgotten a bunch, but these are enough for now.

As for books, "the kind that act upon us like a misfortune, that make us suffer like the death of a person we love more than ourselves, that make us feel as though we were on the verge of suicide, or lost in a forest remote from all human habitation--a book should serve as the ax for the frozen sea within us"
