I love to read and I write off and on, though lack the motivation to ever finish anything really interesting. Geology used to be a passion of mine, and I'm still fascinated by rock formations and plate techtonics. I love animals, though I'm a notorious fish killer- unintentionally. I like watching movies and television, going on long winded rants about somewhat significant historical figures, and just loafing around with my boyfriend and our dogs. I adore playing Kingdom Hearts and Zelda, and I love to cook.
Fred the Great (Prussian King). Vlad Dracula. Anne of Cleves. Anne Boleyn. Anne Rice. J.R.R Tolkien. Adolf Hitler. Bill Maher. Alton Brown. Stalin. Bulgakov. Bram Stoker. Queen Elizabeth I... In general I like meeting people who I can be silly with, but who can also hold a serious conversation from time to time.

Life is Beautiful, Dan in Real Life, When Harry Met Sally, Interview with the Vampire, Lord of the Rings, Bram Stoker's Dracula, Shop on Main Street, Phantom of the Opera, Little Miss Sunshine, there are so many movies- I like movies that leave something with me, whether it's the cheesy Romantic comedy that makes me smile, the horrifyingly depressing movie that makes me think, or the vampire and adventure movies that leave me wishing for a more interesting world. I'm not hard to please when it comes to movies.
