Very interesting thread. Too bad I'm not a very interesting person, lol. Oh well I'll begin to ramble anyway.
I think I live in some sort of world of obsession. My first obession (which has mysteriously followed me since early childhood) is WOLVES. It's pathetic what my room looks like. Along with wolves, I love animals of every kind--especially my dogs.I've wanted to get a husky my entire life, and now I have one...I love him even though he's a little bugger sometimes. Reggie and Smokey have been with me for so long, I never remember not having a dog.
Art is another obsession that has followed me since early childhood. I have always loved to draw, and it has combined with my love of animals. I don't think anyone could possibly have drawn wolves as many times as me.I've messed around with many different mediums, but I still go back to my favorite, prismacolors. I love photography too! I've always had a camera with me at all times, heh. And last year in school I took a photography class. It was great to take and develop your own pics! I use the computer for art too, I'm constantly messing with adobe photoshop.
Music! I LOVE the group U2! I have loved them since I was about 11. I have probably 40 or more cds (including singles, live shows, etc.) along with tons of videos, shirts, posters, books...yeah, the works. I was lucky enough to go to 3 Elevation concerts (Salt Lake City, Denver, Las Vegas) and I have to say it was almost like a spiritual experience for me! For the SLC show we waited in the G.A. line for over 12 hours with basically no food or water. Nuts eh? There's many other rock/alternative bands I like too...a few off the top of my head...Our Lady Peace, Alanis Morissette, Travis, Jimmy Eat World, No Doubt (3 concerts of theirs too--though 2 of them were opening for U2
Ummm...I like to read also. Some of my favorite books are The Loop by Nicholas Evans, The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien, and a lot of the books by Michael Crichton such as The Lost World and Timeline. T.V./movies are great too. The Simpsons is the best! It's brilliant.
I love the outdoors. I don't know what I'd do if I didn't wake up to see my mountains every morning. We have a 5th wheel and go camping often. We also have some property. So far we have a shed up there...maybe a cabin eventually (too bad we're poor!) My friends and got into this weirdo hobby called Geocaching. Has anyone heard of it? It's really amusing...if you enjoy wandering through trees and brush...or downtown with people staring at you...for hours...lol.
KayAnn--I like to cook too! Melissa and I came up with our own special recipe for Fetucinne Alfredo, heh. I just don't like cleaning up the mess.
As for places I'd like to visit--first off, I'd go to Ohio. Rachel lives there, and I've been wanting to meet her for like 5 years now..so....lol. I'd like to see the rest of the U.S. period. I've only really been in some of Utah's surrounding states. Even if it means saving my entire life, I *want* to visit Europe some day! I'd love to go to Ireland (U2...) and Switzerland (my bro spent 2 years there).
Umm...things I don't like.......not in common with some of you guys....I'm not a water person. It freaks me out. I do love to wade in rivers/lakes though. I don't like anime. Maybe I just don't get it. I had friends in school completely obsessed with it, and quite frankly, it was a little frightening. They all had their own characters of themselves, and I really think they believed they could shoot spikes out of their fingers or something. lol. I have never even heard of the show Trading Spaces (could be the fact that I don't have cable...) Anyhoo...
Told you I would ramble (well it's 2 a.m. and I'm quite bored...). You know what my life is really like (come on, I live in Utah, I must be boring)? I stay up half the night, wake up at 7:00 to Nebo barking at me, wander around half asleep for a few hours...take a shower...and do nothing...which usually involves the computer....yeah I'm still looking for a job.
