| Other Hobbys/Passion besides Fencing?
Aside from you enjoying or being passionate (or if you're being forced to do so  ) about fencing, what other things do you fancy doing? | 
|  | | And now for this message... |

| Eat, sleep and watch TV of course!  
Plus the occasional blowing stuff up in the lab...

| Other major interests:
Flying radio controlled model airplanes - sailplanes, specifically. It's a man vs. nature thing to keep a model airplane with no motor aloft, riding on rising air currents, for as long as possible.
Photography - I would love to turn this passion into a business.
Horseback riding - my SO's hobby, but I like it too.

| I have one passion that I have been doing much longer than fencing and that is dancing.

| I'm a dancer (17 years of experiece), artist (main medium being oil pastel), actress (member of Shakespeare Performance Troupe), very amatuer photographer (I'm our class photographer), political activist, camp counselor (6 years experience with that- so I'm professionally insane), writer (I'm working on a novel. It's awful, but good practice), tree-climber, kayaker, professional videographer, organizer, hiker, traveler, and so on.
Being a college student consumes most of my time. So I suppose I should say I am a reader-of-large-anthropological/ethnographical-texts.
I've also recently become very interested in museums, especially history museums (helpful, since I'm living in the largest maritime museum in the world), and have recently been told I'm officially part of the very exclusive club of people who find it a great joy to rise early every day and go dust old stuff. Really, that's what I do for money just now and it's the best job I've ever had.
Yay Mystic Seaport. Though I'm a deserter, since i'm heading to Nantucket for the summer.
A list of my interests would probably go like this:
Food
People
Sunlight
Books
Sleep
I also share D'Art's interest in breathing.

| I am quite the finicky one. I stay with one thing for a while and move onto the next. I enjoy archery/drums/piano/reading/plants/animals/hiking/wood carving/drawing/video games(mostly guild wars even though it doesnt work anymore, and I will kill my computer with a butt load of explosives and a few arrows, and then pick it up and throw it off that huge temporary bridge down the street that I hate driving over because it moves, and then take a huge sledge hammer and,...wow, Im still typing.), and I love snuggling with the bunnies at the Petsmart, and I like attempting to get a tan at the beach. But that never works out. | |
