I have many interests. I love to read, I always read before I go to bed, I read on my lunch hour, I read when I'm waiting for people to show up. I read. I listen to music too and love going to concerts. I'm involved with a professional group, The National Association of Insurance Women and work hard in my local chapter, my goal is to become National President one day, it's a long road. Um . . . my sweet loving Sport is an interest. He's adorable and loves me unconditionally he keeps me interested and reminds me of simple things because he's a cat, he lives a simple life. I love movies too. I love going to the movies and seeing the new stuff and I enjoy going to see the old stuff. I went with my boyfriend to see Gone With The Wind on the big screen, totally incredible and so much fun. I'm a huge baseball fan, my favorite team is the Los Angeles Dodgers and my favorite players so far are Orel Hershiser (Cy Young Winner in 1988 and I carry his last baseball card around in my wallet) and Eric Gagne (The man right now has 81 consecutive saves and his one of the best Dodgers). I also like other ball players that I've learned about like Ted Williams (have an autographed picture of him in his uniform) and Roberto Clemente (I got to see the famous right field wall in Pittsburgh when I was there). Baseball is just awesome. I also like hockey and my favorite team is the Los Angeles Kings. As far as my hockey I'm used to getting all my hopes up just to have the Kings lose it and not make the playoffs. Disappointment is an acceptable word in my sports vocabulary. I'm trying to think what else. I enjoy scrapbooking, I get together with my friend and scrapbook for hours. I'm also getting into stamping homemade cards, people seem to like them a lot better than store bought cards. Now if I can get really good I can learn to do fancy stuff I keep it simple right now. I think that's it, if there are any more, I'll modify my response. =o)
People. I like to be social, I bowl at least three nights a week to meet people plus it's good to get out and do group activities. Like my profile says I'm in a relationship, so right now I'm looking for friends. I have a core group but would like to extend that, you can never know too many people. Everyone is interesting and likes to do different things.Also, if there are any other young insurance professionals out there, I could use some study buddies. It's probably much easier to study for national exams when there is more than one person.
I listen to all kinds of music from classical to rock. I enjoy country music and love to listen to Brad Paisley, Kenny Chesney, Trisha Yearwood, Faith Hill, Tim McGraw, and Jo Dee Messina to name a few. I also enjoy groups like Maroon 5, Barenaked Ladies, They Might Be Giants, Hoobastank, Sublime. I'm a music fanatic. I like opera too, one of my favorite things when I was little was to watch Lincoln Center Presents to see the operas. I would like to go to a real opera one day just to experience it in person. OK, but seriously, any and all kinds of music are good for me.
Law & Order (Original, Special Victims Unit, Criminal Intent), CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, Forensic Files, The Simpsons, Sports Center, Dodger games, Kings games, Blind Date (need a good laugh every now and then), Crossing Jordan, Baseball Tonight, Forever Knight, Three's Company, there's more I can't think of everything.
I've read too many that I enjoy, possibly something you read. The Kama Sutra is a must read though, trust me. I have my copy and it's all highlighted. Best reading I did in high school. OK, what else, um. . .Forever Amber, The Crimson Petal and The White, The Time Traveler's Wife, Farenheit 451, Till Death Us Do Part, Future Homemakers of America, Good in Bed, In Her Shoes, there's too many.
