Sati’s Questions
My friend Sati is doing this journal interview thing, and these were the questions that she asked me.
Music. Why? How? When?
I play music and am interested in performing music because it’s something I feel I can do well. Everyone feels like they have to have a purpose in life, and I’ve pretty much missed all my other opportunities (college, a full-time job), and music is pretty much the ONE thing that people can’t take from me, and that I can do no matter what.
I learned how to play a few basic chords from my friend Steve McGee, who I’ve known (and had a crush on) since 6th grade. He actually asked me out in 7th, but I turned him down. In highschool we met up again and he was such a brilliant musician, and he was so gorgeous. But then he got into drugs, and last I heard has a kid somewhere. But hearing him sing just made me shiver, and I knew that’s what I wanted to do.
What is your favorite pastime that doesn’t involve music?
Honestly, I’d have to say MUDing is one of my favorite past times. Followed closely by when I used to off-road and camp a lot in highschool. Being able to create any persona in a fantasy environment, and pretty much create your own movie, is beyond words.
All time favorite work of fiction?
I honestly don’t read as much as I should. I enjoy the World of Darkness Game setting, and have read a lot of books on Vampires because of the game. I also like the LoTR series, because I’ve always been into the whole ‘fantasy’ genre. Watching Labyrinth, or Legend as a little girl.
Describe your ideal/favorite evening- say no more than 8 hours. Anything goes, no fantasy too impossible to fulfill.
Sheesh I honestly don’t know. I’m not really into the whole walking on the beach thing. I want something wild and exotic.
What is one thing you hope you’re remembered for? Something you hope is forgotten?
I want to be remembered for my music, and that my music came from the heart, not from the money. And I want a few things that are pretty bad that I’ve done in the past to be forgotten. I don’t tend to think about them at all anymore, but occasionally they come back to haunt me.
