音乐、电影和书籍

I mostly read non-fiction (travel writing, narratives) or the classics. Currently I am really into Russian authors.
My favorite music right now is electro "indie"/pop/hip hop (like ratatat or RJD2), but I also like top 40/party music including hip-hop and rap (especially from the 1990s), I dig classical, jazz, trip-hop (like portishead), various "indie" (grizzley bear, spoon, Elliott smith, Beirut, Lykke Li, etc), and whatever kind of music Styx, E.L.O and Queen are.
I love documentaries and some fav movies are "Me, You, and Everyone We Know," "Welcome to the Dollhouse," "Say Anything," "Amelie," and documentaries.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Feeling the vibrations of a Grouse's wings flapping in your heart! Feels like a non-painful mini heart attack. I don't know why more people don't talk about this, it is one of the craziest sensations I have ever experienced.
