Learning. Anything. Recently, I learned some sign language, some stuff about WWI, some stuff about US politics, and how to draw with the right side of my brain (whatever that means). I still want to study piano, japanese, cooking, and MORE sign language. I play cartoon characters for a living, so my life is basically one big hobby. Why not add 10 more?
