Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Love others and make others love me, but if they don't, I can't be bothered
ABOUT ME
a philharmonic and philosophic guy, fun loving, extrovert at times yet timid some other times.
A tranquil Buddhist who loves singing, esp opera. I am learning French but I don't particularly like French opera. In Italian opera I trust (Rossini, Verdi, Bellini, Donizetti. Puccini? Not very much, sorry.) Mozart is good too!
I also enjoy chatting with strangers. This sounds cliche but it's TRUE! I do enjoy exchanging thoughts with others probably coz I don't read much (I'm a slow reader. Read below) - someone who doesn't read a lot but for knowledge he yearns, he should be a good listener and that's his way to learn. ("yearn" and "learn" rhyme)
I don't eat beef.
PHILOSOPHY
Buddhism//
Not a vegetarian (I was, but no longer am), but I don't eat beef. Fine with milk/butter :)
Hey, it's philosophy, why are you expecting me to WRITE something? Let's discuss tete-a-tete, like what Socrates and his disciples did :)

Music, Movies, and Books
too many to list out
Books: I'm a very slow reader. I never do what they call speed reading, an idea I abhor. To devour a book is to humiliate the writer. I read to feel the piece, the dictions, etc. and to love the writer.
Albert Camus' l'Etranger. Love it. I was Merssault when I was 18-19.
Movies: no particular interest
Music: mellifluous music esp. Italian opera.
Youtube Mariella Devia + Edita Gruberova - probably the greatest singers of our generation...
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
amazing thing seen: myself in the mirror
amazing thing done: to love and to sing, esp. Bach's B Minor Mass: Glo~~~~r~~~i~~a in ex~~~cel~~el~~sis~~~ Deo! (Youtube it and you'll understand)
