FAQ
Where did you get those cute blog icons?
I got them from a site called Anikaos.com where there is a substantial list of various Japanese characters that you might like to use to brighten up your webpage, such as Hello Kitty, Chococat, and other Sanrio and anime characters.
What's your favorite pet?
I really love(d) all my pets to death, so it's hard to say which one is my favorite. Basically, I like pets with lots of personality. Right now the only two living are Marina, my pomeranian who lives in MD, and Wispy, my betta who lives with me. I'm hoping that Wispy will survive the winter because it tends to get super cold in my house in Long Island. Wish us luck!
How long have you and Randy been going out?
Oh wow, for a while now. Let's see -- 4.5 years? One of my future projects is to dedicate a new website to us, and it will answer everybody's questions all in one place. Or better yet, I should make Randy do all the dirty work. Just kidding, huni...
Who is/are your favorite composer(s)?
Well, I go through phases. Right now, I'm overdosing on Bartok because his music is so interestingly complex, yet simple like Bach but with crazy harmonies. The last time I went through a Bartok phase was during my second year at NEC when I learned the second Violin Concerto. Totally awesome piece. Right now my projects are and have been Bartok 4 quartet, Solo Sonata, and Contrasts. Stay tuned for upcoming performances!
I also love Brahms, Mahler, Strauss, Prokofiev, and Dvorak for cheesy moments.
