Music, Movies, and Books

I like movies( especially independent one)last one seen: four needles, hotel rwanda and... ok,ok I have seen the last Harry potter and I liked it.Just saw Inception, was awesome.
I like Herman Hess ,Paulo Cuelho and Jack Kirouac books, books that make you learn something.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While I was captured by pirates at the border of panama and colombia, I have seen how uneasy it is to steal and kill even from brainwashed kids taken from the jungle . Under the authority of guerillas, those kids, under military groups controls ,have to obey the orders from their commander, i could feel how afraid they were to point a gun at me, they were victims like myself...
