i like chai tea, text messaging, a good pair of jeans, art (i'm an oil painter and a sculptor), poker, films with subtitles, road trips, volunteering (i miss HQ!), yoga, singing very loudly in my car, sushi, dark beers (especially guinness and oatmeal stout from freestate), hippies, more specifically being a hippie, fall, traveling, meeting genuine people, getting my hair cut, having someone tickle my back, organizing, trees, spending time with family, sudoku, guitar hero (i rock!), netflix, my new church, typing in all lower-case letters, not having to work on weekends, the rain, nature in general, fresh pineapple, cleaning, buttercream yankee candles, going home to mom and dad, afternoons at the dog park, bread! planning out my life, learning things about myself i didn't know, growing up...
i listen to most kinds of music and like anything that moves me, but my absolute favorite band is the counting crows... i'm borderline obsessed.
i love watching movies and i couldn't pick a favorite, but some i love are: gladiator, last of the mohicans, french kiss, dear frankie, saving grace, braveheart, elf... i have netflix and now have a new favorite every other day or so...
grey's anatomy, lost, the office, project runway... i honestly don't watch much tv, if any, but these are definitely my favorites.
some of my favorites: the alchemist, the giver, ishmael, a child called it, the davinci code, angels and demons, yoga for dummies, the perks of being a wallflower, my ishmael, the story of b, the harry potter books (slightly ashamed to say that) blue like jazz, purpose driven life, eat pray love... the list goes on. i also really enjoy reading non-fiction books, like how-to books. i usually end up loving whatever book i am reading... current book: catch-22
i like to be my own hero... people let you down so frequently that you have to be able to stand on your own two feet and not rely on others for strength.
