CURRENT MISSION

To have a vast array of experiences

ABOUT ME

Video Games, Piano, Anime, Manga, Cycling
Simple, yet not so simple. I'm pretty much a big nerd, but you'd be surprised at what I can do and what I'm willing to do.

Currently, I would love to be able to play complicated piano duet with someone equally skilled or better.

PHILOSOPHY

Always understand things from another person's point of view.

Music, Movies, and Books

As long as a movie is watched with friends, it almost doesn't matter. I'm not so good with horror movies though :x Some movies I do like are:

- Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Be Kind Rewind, Memoirs of A Geisha, Old Boy

- I also have a soft spot/Achilles' Heel for absolutely terrible adaptations like The King of Fighters and The Legend of Chun-Li. Actually, for vapid mindless action in general like The Man With the Iron Fists, and Django Unchained.

- Comedy series really are a huge hit with me, especially the power trio of 30 Rock, The Office and Arrested Development
___________
I'm really into VGM. 90% of my music falls under this under-appreciated category. Jazz and classical are high up there as well, but I'm always looking to listen more to become more well-versed in those spheres.

__________
1Q84.

I particularly love cultural studies books like The Paradox of Choice, Freakonomics, and The Tipping Point. Artbooks for videogames catch my interest as well.
