My Least Favourites
|
| Artists |
I hate most Fantasy art, and most renaissance/medieval art bores me. I sometimes look at fan art for laughs, but it mostly nauseates me. |
| Movies |
love stories, anything where the love of someones life was where they least expected it, those horrible spring break movies, I'm not being specific because they are the same plot devices regurgitated over and over. |
| Books |
see above, and apply it to books. |
| Places |
really crowded places, or places with allot of noise, because I don't always here so well. |
| TV Shows |
see above movie rant, and apply it to tv. |
| Music |
hip hop, country, shit indy rock (their is good indy rock), alternative, Christian...Honestly when I listen to the radio it's NPR |
| |
My Interests
|
| Art, Hermit Crabs, Cats, Horror Movies, Reading. |
| |
My Sports and Hobbies
|
| Jello is more athletic then I. I don't really have time for hobbies, but I guess my hermit crabs are kind of a hobby. |

Thank you. |
