not into: Prejudice/racism/xenophobia

makes me happy: Sad music (Profound, agonizing, sorrowful, cathartic, meaningful, mysterious, or liturgical will also do it.)

makes me sad: People who talk to me only to ask me to comment on their sets.

5 things i can't live without: Tons of books, CDs, DVDs, tapes... in short, a nice library; pen and paper; a proper computer; and... the internet!

fantasy: feeds my writing.

most humbling moment: Actual profoundness, artistry, and ingenuity often make me cry. A number of government and diplomatic authorities were in a recital at a church. A huge, rustic bodyguard was standing near me, very puzzled with my crying. Towards the end, right after a piece by Bach, he gazed me once more: We were crying together.
