Living is easy with eyes closed...misunderstanding all you see

About Me

I like a lot of things. See my interests and read them all. I probably have more. Just ask.

My Interests

-I am Anna Jean Peterson-I'm a sophomore at UW-Madison-I'm a bigger fan of facebook...-I like to play my guitar and violin, and also play the piano and domra-I'm a diver-I like Madison in general... sometimes-I like any kind of music. Seriously, any kind. At this very moment, Kings of Leon and The Traveling Wilburys-I am prominently Swedish and Norwegian-I wish Skwisgaar Skwigelf was a real person-I miss doing gymnastics a lot-I enjoy not wearing pants-I love getting dressed up, like for formal events, which weirds me out a bit-I really like animals. Especially horses. I know it sounds stupid (but I really don't care), but I become so content and just happy when I'm around them or out riding-Favorite animals: horses, llamas, and goats. Probably in that order-I like road trips to Minnesota with Ginny and Liz-I enjoy taking pictures-I love to climb things-I like kissing people-I absolutely love old architecture. I can look at it for hours, and not get bored-I like going to museums, and dare I say it, but I like learning-Learning about different cultures is very fun for me-I really really miss my Italian class-I like to thyme for boys' swim meats with Sarah-I like jumping...a lot. Off things, on people, whatever...it's fun.-Laughing is one of my favorite passtimes and I do it a lot-I like sneezing. It's just so satisfying...-I like my parents. Actually, I love them, what do you expect, they're family. I get along with them really well, contrary to most teenagers-I also love the rest of family (extended). There are so many people and the family has so much character and I absolutely love being around them.-I love going to the beach, and I like living only 3 blocks away from it-I think the word "love" when expressed to another person is over-used and due to that, has lost a lot of its meaning...and that's why I don't really say that to people unless I really mean it-I love to cook and prepare/serve food for people-I miss youth symphony-I like studying people's handwriting-I love nautical things-I really like New Glarus Spotted Cow...and beer in general-I enjoy going to cafes with my friends-I like David Bowie. He's lovely-I like ice cream-I like RED Swedish Fish-I really really like fruit, EXCEPT for cherries, but I think I'm good with everything else-I am a fan of paisley-I like doing Sudoku puzzles-I love pasta...and pesto, for that matter-I like watching infomercials. They're so amusing and draw you in. I especially like the Magic Bullet.-I love math-Going to concerts brings me much joy-I really like modern-day music covering classical music (ex. Trans-Siberian Orchestra)-I think Paul McCartney is an amazingly talented man, as well as John Lennon, and they were truly one of the greatest duos ever-Green is my favorite color, followed by red, and then yellow-Old Spice Glacial Falls is the best scent for guys, hands down-I really like astronomy and star-gazing-I like it when people (that I don't dislike, because that'd be plain creepy) play with my hair-I'm awesome at giving massages-The Da Vinci Code made me think about things in a very different manner-I think Leonardo Da Vinci was an extrodinary man-I love to travel, it's one of my favorite things to do. Airports make me happy-The Swedish Chef from the Muppets is one of my favorites, as well as Pepe (the King Prawn). Clifford scares me the most-I hate it when people tickle me: bad things happen. I kick and flail, and someone always gets hurt-I like sports (football and hockey are the most fun to watch)-I like getting compliments (who doesn't?)-I like James Bond more than Indiana Jones-I love it when things are symmetrical-I might have a touch of OCD-I like to organize and clean things-I prefer being cold over hot, but I still enjoy hottubs and saunas-I'm fairly strong for a girl-I appreciate sarcasm (my first language), good humor, and wit-I enjoy musicians-I want to live out in the country-ish area, but not too far from the city-I love full tanks of gas-I like pirates. And vampires too.-I'm a sucker for charm-I'm a sucker for musicians-I have yet to travel abroad, but I really want to go to Spain and Italy-I also would like to go to California or Hawaii just to relax and have a good time-I probably like you-I kinda like it when my hands are cold-I like The Rocky Horror Picture Show and getting dressed up and going to the showings in Milwaukee with all my friends-I like driving...anywhere, really. As long as I've got music and gas in my car, I'm good to go-Vivaldi is my favorite classical composer. Then Mozart, then Bach, and then I don't know-I think this is enough random information about me. If you still have questions, feel free to ask me, my AIM s/n is LaBena06
