Introduction - Madame Mim
Ok, here we go Sorry if something's not clear, my mother tonge is spanish and my english is a little neglected.

My vocation is singing, but I'm doing other stuff too. Job? Unfortunately no, looking for
2. Where are you from? Argentina
3. Who is your favorite author? Depends on the day, my mood on that moment. Right here, right now, I'm thinking of Borges
4. What are your favorite films? Like all my tastes, I can't tell you just one. I like very much the works of Gus van Sant, Coppola, Bertolucci, Tsai Ming Liang and Kim-ki duk.
5. What music do you want played at your wedding? If there is ever a wedding, there wont be music at the ceremony, on the party... well, anything goes, I wont be paying attention to that...
6. At your funeral? None, just silence
7. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die? I don't know, anything but stupid or painfull
8. What kind of casket would you want? I'm okay with a funerary urn, really don't care what happens to my body once i'm not there anymore.

Borges..... nice. What kind of singing? Do you write your own songs at all? And finally, are you mad mad mad mad?

I got in a fight with my best friend about Neruda and Borges because of Borges' support for the right-wing governments of Chile and Argentina.
My friend argued that Borges called himself an anarchist and that I should appreciate his poetry aside from his ideas.
I responded that his art cannot be divorced from his ideas of life and therefore we must also consider the reasons and source of inspiration of his poetry.
I felt that might interest you.

Thanks!
Madame Mim was one of my favourites characters in my childhood. I still love watching the Disney movies of the "old school"...
Actually, I don't compose music... I study classical music, and yes, I make music for my teachers, but I really suck doing that. I just keep on studying that career cause I love classical music and to keep the Social Security (Is that how you call it?).
I'm an opera singer (well, I'm working on it).
Why should I be mad mad mad mad? Maybe I am, but if you watch everyone closely, no one's totally sane...
I agree with you, Alan, but in this case, I think, Borges doesn't really care about politic in his work (actually, used to be trashed for his apparent indifference about the dictature), he had some problems with some presidents and had his own reasons to not get involved in a struggle with them. Anyway, I didn't live those tragicall years, but I don't blame him for triyng to keep himself apart from that mess.
Thanks for the wellcome, cheered me up
PS: Gracias, Jethro Aranas, un hispanohablante no me viene nada mal, jaja, quizás me pueda ayudar con mi desastre de inglés, si no es mucha molestia

A veces uso gothic.net como un area de practica de. Whehe. But sometimes they become so mean too. I just got used to it.
By the way, I try my best to minimize using Spanish in here, except only if I don't really know the English word.
There's got a lot of smart, funny and mean people in here. You'll really gonna enjoy in here.
