I'd like to meet:
All the people in history who were misunderstood -- and of course...:
Music:
mostly country (new and old) and the good ol' oldies and 80's, but also some rock, alternative, and punk. As long as it's not rap, I'll listen to it.
Movies:
My favorites are comedies (I absolutely love to laugh), but really, I'll watch anything...
Television:
When I actually do watch TV, it's either movies or sitcomsYAY!! I FINALLY got myself a pet duck!! And they are NOT stupid... ESPECIALLY not Quackers! [ :
adopt your own virtual pet!
Books:
Books are my passion, which you can probably guess by just glancing at the length of this section (hey, I'm a lit major, give me a break.... and I promise I'm not a freak!). My three favorite books of all time are "Pride and Prejudice" by: Jane Austen, "As The Waltz Was Ending" by: Emma Macalik Butterworth, and "Inherit The Wind" by: Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee. I other books that I like are: "Night" by: Elie Wiesel, "To Kill A MockingBird" by: Harper Lee, "The Ugly American" by: William J. Lederer and Eugene Burdick, "The Expected One" by: Kathleen McGowan, "Reading Lolita In Tehran: A Memoir in Books" by: Azar Nafisi "A Diary Of A Young Girl" by: Anne Frank, "Bleachers" by: John Grisham, and "Memiors of a Geisha" by: Arthur Golden. My favorite (at least so far) Shakespearean plays are "Hamlet" and "A Midsummer Night's Dream". Other authors/poets I like are: Geoffery Chaucer, Dan Brown, George Orwell, David Eddings, Dorothy Gilman, Shirley Damsgaard, Alice Kimberly, Sharyn McCrumb, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Ambrose Bierce, Emily Dickinson, T.S. Eliot, Lord Byron, Robert and Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Robert Frost, and (my three favorite YA writers)Tamora Pierce, Cameron Dokey, and yes, J. K. Rowlings. --And that's only to name a few...
