Classical singing/opera: have trained a teeny bit and will get back to it when time and money permit... never going to be professional but want to do what I'm capable of.
Wasting all free time gaming on my PC/PS2/GC/DS: all Sims games, Tomb Raider (Lara Croft is my digital hetero lifemate), WoW, ATITD, GTA, Harvest Moon, Guitar Hero, Civ, Katamari Damacy/WLK, Animal Crossing (all hail the pussy games!), Rollercoaster Tycoon, MoH, MarioKart, and a smattering of others.
Academically (aside from veterinary medicine): Physical anthropology, evolutionary neuropsychology, behavioral paleontology, statistics, cognitive psychotherapy, comparative sociology, philosophy, and semi-layman's astrophysics.
Musical composition: have several ideas and movements in my head but have not made myself sit down to actually compose them. Hoping to do so, and get them out of my head someday, cuz it gets quite noisy in there. Look for choral, metal, operatic, jazz, and electronic influences among them.
Planning to get a motorcycle endorsement on my license at some point. No lowriders... sportbikes only. All hail the crotchrocket! Dream bike: 2004 Yamaha R6 in silver .
Dying to one day have a cream French Bulldog (who I shall name Booger), a whiteface cockatiel, a couple ferrets, an oriental shorthair, and a fat-tailed gecko.
Metal:
Nightwish, Sonata Arctica, Symphony X, Arjen Lucasson's work (Ayreon, Star One), Tarot, Within Temptation, Dol Ammad, Avian, Dream Evil, Operatika, Nemesea, Sirenia, Opeth, Theatre des Vampires, Mandylion, Stratovarius, After Forever, Evergrey, The Storm Front (yay Drew!!)
UnMetal:
Bjork, Veruca Salt, No Doubt/Gwen's solo work, opera, Frank Zappa, Bob Marley/Peter Tosh, live jazz, flamenco guitar, Queen, Smashing Pumpkins, Blues Traveler, Jamiroquai, Boston, Nick Cave, Neil Young, Ani DiFranco, 30STM, crisp clean electronica (esp. Leftfield & old Prodigy), *some* hip-hop/R&B, old funk, Gipsy Kings, Kaiser Chiefs, Smiths, pop raï, bhangra, and the Senegalese musicians Wasis Diop and Vieux Diop. I'm pretty open depending on my mood, but always demand technically proficient or interesting vocals. While driving it's usually gotta be hard 'n fast.
Family Guy, Futurama, Robot Chicken, ShinChan, Inuyasha (despite my obscene loathing of anime), Lost, House, all Star Trek, XFiles, King of the Hill, Heroes, WonderPets (teehee!), The Simpsons, American Idol, Animal Cops, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, Law + Order (SVU and CI, not regular), crappy horror movies.
A desire to learn and to escape combined with the frustrations of dyslexia and ADHD has left many unread books on my shelves... Michael Crichton, Star Trek novels, Tolkien, Lord of the Flies, Sophie's World, Calvin & Hobbes, Sandman and other work by Neil Gaiman, various nonfiction (sociology, physical anthropology, Native American history, philosophy).
Stewie Griffin ;-p
Two beautifully innocent and honest songwriters: Tuomas & Arjen. Your hearts and minds make mine go pitter-patter!
