Mika
To me, being a classical snob in the highest possible way and being an indie snob is just as bad!
Mika
I'm fascinated by religion, but I'm not particularly religious.
Mika
Zen is just a lifestyle, your everyday life. It is doing your best at your job, relationships, health, hobbies, and other daily activities!
Mika
Well, I have to say, most of my clothes are designed and made by my mother.
Mika
Oh, I'm quite harmless in real life.
