Peforming of almost any kind - I crave it.
Musical Theatre - is my first love, I suppose.
Violin/Fiddle - will always be an integral part of who I am. I've discovered that there's no escaping it, and that's okay.
New York street vendors coffee and bagels - I miss it!
Philosophy and Debating - invigorate my brain.
Reading novels - is my favorite way to spend a few free moments (or hours).
Playing games with friends - is one of my favorite ways to spend an evening and no money!
Hosting parties - gives me a thrill and yet another creative outlet.
Planning weddings - Definitely a future career.
Drawing, Cooking, Decorating, ... and the list goes on.
I'd like to meet:
Cinderella, the Genie in the Lamp, Harry Potter, Mary Poppins, Willie Wonka and anyone else magical! Wouldn't that be nifty?!

Movies:
The Scarlet Pimpernel, 1982, has been my favorite movie for as long as I can remember. Anthony Andrews, Jane Seymour, Ian McKellen. Passion. Romance. Wit. Bravery. Sword fights. Disguises. Intrigue. And big gorgeous costumes. It's got it all. Knotting Hill, White Christmas, Office Space, Return to Me, Shrek, just to name a few others.

My brother, 1st Lieutenant Neil Rackley, who recently came back safely from a year in Iraq. His wife (and one of my best friends), 1st Lietenant Yael Blanton. And all the other brave men and women serving their country overseas.
