About Me
I live in a small town in Illi.. Sometimes I like living here, other times, not so much... I really think that the area that I live is really pretty (esp. in the Winter), but sometimes I wish that I could live somewhere else (Like Utah!!!)..
I love music... I will listen to anything from Bach to Eminem... My favorite genre is Classic Rock... Almost everything in my day to day life revloves around music in some way.. I am almost always humming a song... And I almost always have one trapped in my head..
I love reading... I'm really into the Classics. I have read half of Jane Austen's books, and I am planing on reading them all.. I love anything that was written my Alexandre Dumas, my favorite book of all time is his The Count of Monte Cristo. I also love Poe, and I think that he was a huge influence in modern literature. I love the Harry Potter books.. I have read through the entire series start to finish twice now, and I will prolly be doing it again next year at some point, since the sixth movie will be going to theaters in November... I am also a huge fan of William Shakespeare, I can actually understand him without help.. In my spare time I will usually be curled up on the couch with a book...
I love nature.. I love hiking, camping, canoeing, star gazing, anything outdoors really...
I love movies and musicals.... My favorite kind of movies tend to be British Romantic Comedies... Well Romantic Comedies in general.. My favorite musical is Les Misérables with Across the Universe as a close second, and Sweeny Todd the Demon Barber of Fleet Street would be my number three.
I love watching sports... My favorite ones are Football and Hockey... I also like to watch the X Games and the Olympics...
