walking, early morning (being up, not getting up!), languages, linguistics (socio and historical), verschiedene Sprachen zu studieren und hoeren, books, more books, poetry, the internet, bubble tea (yum!), photography, bright shiny objects, music, singing, quirky websites, things that make me laugh and things that make me hopeful, and sometimes even things that make me cry
I'd like to meet:
long lost friends or relatives, my maker
Music:
They Might Be Giants is the best band ever... also I like a lot of mellow alternative rock and folk and quirky stuff, like Indigo Girls, Moxy Fruvous, Counting Crows, Keane. New stuff I'm getting into: Wir Sind Helden, Iron and Wine, Sufjan Stevens, Half-Handed Cloud.
I like to listen to music for free online:
coverville.com (all covers all the time. except for originals sometimes.)
boredagainchristian.com (post-contemporary Christian music)
launch.com (customizable station)
pandora.com (station that plays music similar to artists/songs you like)
Movies:
I like movies that aren't crazy violent or gratuitous. Some faves are Mulan, Strictly Ballroom, Stargate, Singing in the Rain, Drunken Master 2, and Jackie Chan as an actor (not all of his movies are exctly great but he is a funny guy).
Television:
I was really hooked on X-files back in the day. I watch Survivor and CSI most weeks. Don't own my own TV.
Books:
The Bible, pretty much anything by Madeline L'Engle or C.S. Lewis, The Language Instinct, An Unquiet Mind... I love to read but sometimes school and work sucks out the will to read stuff on your own!
