It sometimes feels like the workplace is immune from social upheaval. We go to work and do the best we can, and at the end of the day, we return to our lives.

One of the things I like about music is it's an abstract art, totally abstract, where you can convey an emotion, which I find amazing.

I've never really had a media edifice supporting me.

I got problems. I freak out, go to a shrink, go through all kinds of therapy and stuff, but I'm learning how to deal with it. That's why I've chosen one hour a night to get all of my aggressions out. to really tell the world the way I feel.
