Anything else? a Disney fan? a Desperate Housewives fan, lol, into computers? i don't know..I'll think of more later if this works out. Name as much as you can!</p>
<p>hehe okay.</p>
<p>Sports. I am a performing artist and do not play any sports (becuase i suck.) but i truly consider dance a sport!</p>
<p>Anyways I do like watching stuff so yeah. I haven't gotten into college football yet, but obviously I'm a Bruins fan now haha. I like watching pro-football on TV. My fave teams are the Raiders, Colts, and NY Giants. I love watching hockey live--best sport ever. I'm an LA Kings fan and I miss NHL (they've been on a lockout for 2 years.) I am not a sports expert, but I find ESPN Classic entertaining. Oh during the Olympics, I never miss women's gymnastics. </p>
<p>Music: I like EVERYTHING. classical (for when i'm doign homework) to Britney Spears to Hip Hop to rock to country. Currently my fave artists are Dido and Alicia Keys and my fave bands are Coldplay, Zero 7 and Frou Frou. The only genre I don't liek is goth-metal--like Marilyn Manson type stuff. yuck. </p>
<p>Hobbies: dance, acting, watching old movies, reading history, paying attention to politics, watching international news 24-7, going online. etc...</p>
<p>Movies: Breakfast at Tiffany's (really any movie with Audrey Hepburn.) Beauty and the Beast, Cruel Intentions, Clueless etc...etc...</p>
<p>Shows: Twilight Zone! The O.C. , Las Vegas, Real World, Survivor, and old sitcoms on Nick @ Nite and TV Land. </p>
<p>Books: 1984, Animal Farm, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, Nancy Drew series etc...</p>
<p>A Disney Fan? --> yes an OLD Disney fan. I love all the classic animated features and movies, but lately they haven't come out with anything that great. </p>
<p>A Desperate Housewives fan?--> I've never watched it actually.</p>
<p>Into computers? --> I hate computers, I only know how to use the internet and type up homework--nothing else.</p>
<p>Sports: Not a sports person at all. In my entire high school career, I have not been to one sporting event. We'll see if this carries over to college.</p>
<p>Music: I go through strange phases with music; I binge and purge and then grow vastly disenchanted with it all. I'm a Weezer loyalist although I don't really know why because it sounds like Album 5 (I refuse to refer to it by the god-awful name Rivers gave it) is going to suck it hard. It runs the gamut, I'm currently binging on the Killers and Minus the Bear.</p>
<p>Hobbies: I read. A lot. I write a lot, too. And when I'm not doing either of those two, I'm sleeping.</p>
<p>Movies: Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Cheaters (just because I was on AcaDec and I find it hilarious), Forrest Gump, The Hours.</p>
<p>Shows: I love Nip/Tuck, and Bravo has the best reality TV shows ever (Project Runway, Showdog Moms & Dads). The Simpsons, but before it got weird.</p>
<p>Books: I'd rather list authors since listing individual bodies of work I like would take forever. Dave Eggers is my God. Stephen Elliott, Lorrie Moore, Margaret Atwood (The Handmaid's Tale), Joyce Carol Oates, John Steinbeck, Jeffrey Eugenidies, Larry McMurtry (Lonesome Dove), Julie Orringer, Michael Cunningham, Michael Chabon, Zora Neale Hurston (Their Eyes Were Watching God), David Foster Wallace, Leo Tolstoy, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Vladimir Nabokov, T.C. Boyle, Samantha Hunt, William Shakespeare, Doug Dorst, George Orwell, Daphne Beale, Kurt Vonnegut, Kate Chopin (The Awakening), and the list goes on and on and on. My tastes really go from one end of the spectrum to the other, from unknown contemporaries to classics in American, British, and Russian litearture. I'm currently fighting my way through DFW's Infinite Jest and wrapping up Atwood's Oryx and Crake, though it's not as good as The Handmaid's Tale. Just finished Hamlet in Lit as well.</p>
<p>Other: I second the OLD Disney fan, though the Incredibles was pretty good. I still cry every time I watch Beauty and the Beast.
I've never seen Desperate Housewives.
I'm sorta into computers, but I'm not all that technical. I loathe my APCS class, if that means anything.</p>
<p>sports: big fan of college football. I enjoy watching USC and UofMiam. In Highschool i played football and golfed a bit and i am starting to pick up some dodgeball action.</p>
<p>Music: Generally i am open to any genre so basically any song i can relate to lyrically or if it just has a nice beat. Not a big fan of heavy death metal or country music though. Favorite bands include breaking benjamin, fuel, AFI, audioslave, red hot chili peppers and bad religion.</p>
<p>Hobbies: building computers (hard to keep up with the times), loitering with friends, watching movies, shopping and eating</p>

<p>Sports: I do high jump and long jump for track & field and I ran cross country as well. I play a little bit of tennis once in a while, but I'm not that great (I'm better with my legs than my arms :P). I'm not really a big fan of watching sports, but I do it once in a while.</p>
<p>Music: I listen to a lot of stuff, but I tend towards pop, soft rock, country, R&B, Disney, techno, Chinese, Japanese, Swedish, Italian, Korean, stuff..
