I had so many things I was interested in when I was in high school but no direction. And the schools mentality was that if you weren't a jock or a cheerleader you weren't worth bothering with. Had I known that some of my minimal skills could have been developed into actual careers, maybe then I would have been able to decide what I wanted to do when I grew up. And sadly I still don't know.
I still enjoy drawing although I never studied art although I am better then some people I am not nearly as good as I would like to be. I enjoy writing, but again, no studies in perfecting or even improving those skills. I wrote and illustrated a children's book when I was a senior in high school. It was stolen by someone who told me they had a publisher friend. Oddly a very similar children's book series and TV specials have been made. Coincidence? Maybe.
I do however enjoy the job that I have now and hopefully soon I will be able to start working on improving on some of the more creative stuff I like doing.
Other then that, I enjoy camping, tent or cabin doesn't matter. I like going to the beach or the mountain, and have had the privilege of seeing a good portion of these United States. There truly is so much America has to offer I see no need to leave its boundaries (OK maybe North America) Family and friends are what are most important though.
Having been one to have stood on the roof of the World Trade Center years ago really brought home the enormity of it as I watched it collapse>>>>>..

You Are Midnight
You are more than a little eccentric, and you're apt to keep very unusual habits.
Whether you're a nightowl, living in a commune, or taking a vow of silence - you like to experiment with your lifestyle.
Expressing your individuality is important to you, and you often lie awake in bed thinking about the world and your place in it.
You enjoy staying home, but that doesn't mean you're a hermit. You also appreciate quality time with family and close friends.
What Time Of Day Are You?

I am also open to try new music too. Generally I like all music, depending on the situation. Except for twangy country and music that screams so loud that you can't understand what they are saying...

MySpace Quiz by QuibbloI do believe BATMAN-The Dark Knight has moved up to the number 2 movie favorite right behind...
Lord of the Rings...Fellowship, Two Towers and Return of the King, then Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy, and in no particular order: Eastern Promises, Resident Evil (thanks Brandy), 8 Mile, Green Mile, The Prestige, 300 (kicks ass!), Constantine, Hitch, Forrest Gump, Matrix, Pitch Black, X-Men, the Lake House, G.I.

(Even if I didn't get to hide under his arm!) the movie though, yeah, was pretty good.
So I just watched The Breakfast Club for the millionth time and every time when Bender (Judd Nelson) says to Carl (the custodian) "See you next Saturday" I always wish there would have been a next Saturday...mostly because I found Judd to be incredibly HOT...Emilio has nothing on him...give me the bad boy! Smokin'!

You Follow Your Heart
You're romantic, sentimental, and emotional.
You tend to fall in (and out of) love very quickly.
Some may call you fickle, but you can't help where your emotions take you.
You've definitely broken a few hearts, but you're not a heartbreaker by nature.
Your intentions are always good, even if they change with the wind

These guy's are easier to communicate with in general they are understanding and given they aren't just this way as mainstream trend they are excellent for converation and just hanging out, but they have very frequent dark spells, that you can either join in or ignore, cheering up really isn't an option. Good luck, you have your work cut out for you.
