I listen to many different kinds of music. With as wide a range as the books I read.

I love classical music (didn't I just say I was a violinist?) Favorite composer is Beethoven, I love Shubert string quartets. I like operas. Saw Magic Flute when was eight and from there was hooked. If I can to pick a favorite it would be either Mozart or Puccini. I'm going to see the Fall of House Usher in November and really exited about it.

I am a teenager so yes I do listen to other music. Not that familiar with alot of modern music so if you want to suggest a band please do!
I do listen to, Family Force Five, Interpol, Arctic Monkeys, Muse, Yeah yeah Yeah, Patrick Wolf, Coldplay, Franz Ferdinand, Kaiser Chiefs, Radiohead, Oingo Boingo, Smashing Pumpkins, Keane.

My favorite kinds of books are thrillers, classics, action and drama. I like books to be tinted with a touch of romance. I don't like a plain romance book. They seem pretty pointless.
This year I am trying to read more classics. I am slightly embarrassed to admit that I haven't read many. I love to get book suggestions, so hit me with them.

I have a million and one "plan to read" on my shelf and I don't mind adding to it. Just hope I can work my way through a good part of them in a years time.

Favorite quotes;
Man cannot survive except though his mind. He comes to earth unarmed, his brain is his only weapon.
~ Howard Roark - Fountainhead. Ayn Rand

One person's craziness is another person's reality
~ Tim Burton

Nothing in life is given to man on earth, everything he needs has to be produced.
~ Howard Roark - Fountainhead. Ayn Rand

Music, is the silence between the notes.
~ Claude Debussy


I will not change my horse with any that treads...
When I bestride him, I soar, I am a hawk.
He trots the air, the earth sings when he touches it...

~ William Shakespeare « less
