What does it mean to me?

I use to listen to music (like everyone), I like that (like everyone) but I listen to unconventional music (not like everyone) for example; Do you use to listen to the *OST of your favorite videogame, series or movie? If the answer is yes… Yay! We are in the same team ;) (But it rarely happens). And besides the OST, I use to listen to songs by The Beatles, Rammstein, and other Rock Bands, so my musical genre is Rock :P (da, obvious xD).
I started to listen to music 4 years ago (when I was 15). In this time I used to listen to the same kind of music that my big sisters likes (Rammstein, J-Rock, Traditional rock, etc) and I still listen to it, so it’s their fault. But I improved my play list.
I use to listen to this kind of soft or exciting music (depends on the movie we`re talking about), because it relaxes me or wakes me up. This is ideal for balancing (mentally) or concentrating (especially when I`m very sparse). That is why I say that music is a mental catalyst.

*OST = Original Sound Track

This is going to sound weird or freak, but I love the fluorescent tubes!!! I don’t know if their cold glows, toxicity by mercury or easy manipulation are the things that call my attention, but I am sure of one thing… I love them!! (Especially the energy saving bulbs and Black lights ^^)
I can’t remember when I got my first fluorescent tube or energy saving bulb (probably when I was doing the light-cover for my aquarium) but I am sure of (another) one thing: I loved going to the store to buy bulbs and  F. tubes (it`s easier than typing the entire word, yes I am lazy :º)
The F. tubes (and similar) are so useful for different types of lighting (and other applications). For example I use energy saving bulbs (preferably with cold glow) to illuminate the plants of my paludarium and terrarium-desk lamp. Besides they are ideal to illuminate environments spending little energy (and reducing the feeling of guilt for not being ecological). And although you do not believe me the F. tubes can be used to attract bugs (you can interpret it as you wish, whether it is pest control or to capture study material).
I can`t imagine a world
without it (yes, I can, but I`m referring to a modern world), A world without their insomnia provoking lights, cold glows and effects of different illumination (like the black light).
Without the F. tubes life would made of warms colors that hurt the sigth and there would be more drowsiness (I don`t like it).
