Interests & Hobbies
Meaning of Life:
The meaning of life is just to be alive. It is so plain and so obvious and so simple. And yet, everybody rushes around in a great panic as if it were necessary to achieve something beyond themselves. Alan W. Watts
Five Things I Can't Live Without:
My kitty, coffee, my family, bubble baths, and Netflix.
Favorite Books:
I'm extremely picky about my "favourite" books. The best ones that I've read recently are: Gone Girl, To Kill a Mockingbird, and purely for nostalgia sake: Memoirs of a Geisha and Flowers in the Attic. However, A Song of Ice and Fire (aka Game of Thrones, if you watch it) will definitely go down as one of my favourite series of all time.
What I Like To Do For Fun:
Watch hockey, running, yoga, paint, draw, and sing.
Favorite Songs:
Bruce Springsteen, Supertramp, Scissor Sisters, Eric Clapton, Electrix Six, Queen, The Rolling Stones, and Prozzak. Those are the ones that I can think of off the top of my head, but I'm sure there are many more.
Favorite Movies:
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Casino, The Room.
Craziest Thing I've Ever Done:
Ask me. I have so many stories and you're bound to find a few interesting. Seriously. Ask.
If I Could Be Anywhere Right Now:
Backpacking through Southeast Asia- Laos, Vietnam, and Thailand. Or teaching ESL abroad almost anywhere. I would love to learn about new cultures.
Hobbies:
I love to paint and draw! Unfortunately I don't have any painting materials at the moment, but sometime soon you will see me paint! I use acrylic on canvas. I also do pencil drawings. (Fun fact- I grew up always wanting to be a Disney artist)
I also play video games, my favourite ones being: Final Fantasy X, BioShock Infinite, and Fallout 3. YES, I am excited for Fallout 76! I don't usually play online but that may change in the future.
Talents:
I can lick my elbow! True fact. Challenge me.
I guess my talents would be that I can paint and draw- many moons ago, I used to sing musical theatre, dance ballet, and act.
Perfect Mate:
I don't have a "type". I enjoy meeting new people and learning about them.
Perfect Date:
Let's see a music show- or sit on the couch under some blankets with a pint of ice cream (Ben and Jerry's FTW). Both sound equally as exciting to me.
Best Reason to Get to Know Me:
I don't feel like I need a reason here- if you've come this far and feel like that I am an interesting person to you, that's great :)
