Hobbies? I have lots of them.
1. Dancing. I take ballet, tap, jazz, and pre-pointe. I also try to choreograph dances but i'm not very good at it.
2. Photography. I'm actually quite new to photography but i've found I really like it! I mainly photograph my dolls, dance related stuff like ballet shoes, and outdoor type stuff like the sun setting or our front yard covered in snow.
3. Photo editing..... Is this considered a hobby? If so, I do it! lol. I like to work with pictures I take by adding text, borders, and other things to them, or colour change pictures to black and white, sepia, or black and white with some colour in it. I need a better editing system though. Maybe photoshop?
4. Reading.
5. Drawing. I like to draw horses, horseback riders, and pointe shoes mainly. I'm starting to work on people now though i'm not very good at it.
6. Narniaweb. Need I say more?
7. Making stop motion videos. This is something new i've just started. I've only made one stop motion video so far of my AG doll dancing, and although it's very hard, takes thousands of pictures, and can be painful (lying on a wood floor for 2 hours nonstop! ) It's very fun and rewarding to see the completed video made in the end.
8. Listening to music.
9. Watching movies.
10. Internet. Going to NW, Youtube, and other favorite sites of mine.
11. Riding my bike.
That's all I can think of right now. There are some things that I stopped that i'd really, REALLY like to get back into though.
Horseback riding. I had to quit due to money problems and because the stable ownders and their "teachers" were being so mean. I miss it!!
Figure skating. I had to stop because once again money problems, and not enough time!
Proud ballet dancer!

I read a really good article on PCWorld a couple days ago that listed ten different free photo editing programs. I haven't tried any of them yet. Here's the link:

^^thanks for that link
Does any one else like to build stuff? Like miniatures? Or am I the lone oddball? I was just wondering.
My hobbies include reading, writing, being on NWeb, making miniatures, listening to music, and hanging out with friends.

1. Reenactment (I live and breath it. Well not really but almost)
2. Weaving (Not cloth, I weave belts and book marks, but cloth is on my list as soon as I get a loom)
3. Kid Care!!!! How I love those little muchkins. Kids from about newborn to five or six years are a special joy to me.
4. Reading, mainly novels
5. writing stories (to tell the truth, I make up a lot of stories in my head but never have enough insperation to write them down. In the end I'll have seven or eight stories in my head and only one on paper. I have a good memory to compensate for my laziness though)
6. I love raising cacti (my sisters are complaining that the only plants in the room are my endless pots of cacti. Guilty...I plead guilty it's true. We haven't any other types of plants. But then who cares )
7. This may sound odd, but I love to be on my own, out in nature, just me and my Creator.
8. I also love to tell other people about Jesus
always be humble and kind
Spring has returned, and so have many of the birds. I've added a few new feeders to our yard and we've been rewarded by more feathered freinds. Already I've seen multiple blackbirds and robins, as well as two goldfinches and our all-year species. The hawks, geese, and gulls have returned as well.
Here's an awesome site for my fellow birdwatchers:
www.allaboutbirds.org
It's sponsered by Cornell University and it includes an online feild guide, tips on attracting birds, as well as some interesting articles.
This month also brought the start of trout season here in NY. I enjoy catch-and-release fishing as much as birdwatching. I've bought my fishing licsence (sp?) already, but me and my dad haven't been free enough to go yet, which is really unfortunate since the weather has been perfect. Perhaps I will get a chance later this week, and if I do hopefully I'll see some birds as well.

I love skimboarding. I just recently moved about an hour away from the ocean so I finally get to a chance to skim more often. I'm not super great at it but I find it to be a good alternative to surfing if you don't have big enough waves. Does anyone else like skimboarding?
I love writing stories in books/screenplays and for movies, making youtube vids, acting in front screen and on stage, boogie boarding, hanging out with friends, reading, horseback riding, making films, learning about film and making good stories, listening to music, playing guitar, Narnia stuff and yeah I'm a up for anything gal except bungee jumping and free falling.
