Song Writing and composition, Music in general, Oregon Trail, snowboarding, Discovery and History Channels, the never-ending quest for knowledge, building sweet blanket forts, haunted houses, serenity in nature, and legos.

Why not be your own hero? Then you can both set your own standards of perfection for yourself and seek to attain these standards. But perfection will never really be achieved as it is just redefined with every stride made towards it. Heroic to me is seeking out perfection in yourself knowing full well that you'll never completely attain it, but striving for it anyways. Always fighting even though you'll never fully win.
