I am a big organization nut, as you see with all the separated folders on here!
Love drawing and painting too. I used to paint sets for the Academy for the performing arts at my school. I designed the sets for Sweeny Todd, Sweet Charity and Barnum my last year there. It was an amazing experience.
I wish I could bake! Or...cook anything at all, hahha. I even messed up in instant rice!I looooove video editing. I just love the feeling of taking a song and connecting it to something I know; video games, shows, movies, books...my two most recent videos were for The Mortal Instruments & Lord of the Rings. I love creating something beautiful out of something as plain as movie or game footage. <3
I also really enjoy writing. I want to be an author someday. (:
(And photoshop-ing!)

Sounds really interesting! I wish I could edit movies!!
Miss Rachel-I like to garden but haven't done much with it really. Year before last I did cucumbers and tomatoes. Last year didn't do anything. This year I've done six tomato plants and six bell pepper plants. They are growing like crazy! Next year I'm going all out!
Mod
Gardening is so fun! I just started actually. I have tomatoes, carrots, green beans, three peppers and snap peas growing!
Mine are outdoor stuff,ATV riding,Mt biking,swimming,beaches and then I love Dancing and dinner and Disneyland and all of LAs entertainment parks,zoos,planetariums
Mod
I used to ride 4-Wheelers and dune buggies...but I've moved and no longer have my toys =(
Rachel; really anybody could edit if they wanted to. (: I just picked it up a couple of years ago, and if it weren't for that, I wouldn't have online accounts anywhere. And I've made just the greatest of friends through it. <3 All you need is a little music and something that you love that has footage!I think gardening would be so much fun. I just don't have the patience for it!
Mod
Hahahah I'll be the gardener, you can be the editor :)
Cross Stitch, Scrapbooking, Card Making and of course reading
I used to do scrapbooking too... but I just don´t have enough time anymore now :-(my hobbies are singing, making music, reading, acting, dancing, travelling and a lot more

I am falling behind in my scrapbooking. Spending way to much time on here LOL.
I love to read, of course. I like to bake, but only if someone else is going to clean the kitchen haha. I like to knit and crochet and play with my son.
Mod
The thing I really regret is that I have never been able to like cooking,even with a Granny I adored trying to show me how.I`ve heard so many say that baking is their therapy and tranquilizers.I have always been jealous of good cooks ,and yes I hate cleaning too.
Besides reading, I like to be outside, enjoying our 6500 gallon pond. We have koi and comets, dragonflies & damselflies (do YOU know the difference?), toads, bats, etc. Trying to figure out which plants will survive the brutal Texas weather is my next favorite thing to do.... Hanging out with my husband, kids and grandson also rank up there for me!
My hobbies are sitting on the balcony in the middle of the night reading, reading outloud to special girls, and doing illigal drugs...wait...I mean taking naps. I get those two confused sometimes.
Michele wrote: "Aaron, drugs are bad."I know. I'm just kidding. I take naps, not drugs.
Love it! I will pass that on to my patients! I work on a Chemical Dependence unit.... have a soft spot for users of any kind...books included!
I love reading and photography!I also collect magazines, which is probably a little strange...

Project Runway is awesome! Are they still filming new seasons? (I always have to depend on what I can find on the internet cause we don´t have the show in Austria :-(
wow that´s awesome!!! Thanks for the link!!!Who were your favourite winners from the past seasons so far? ;-) (I think some of them are just awesome!... and I´m so jealous of what they can make!!!)
haha two of your favourites are mine too! I just loooooved Austin Scarlett and Seth Aaron!!! I remember that in the beginning of the season I wasn´t so much into seth aaron, but after he made that really cool outfit for that child I was simply amazed!!! And from then on I just loved all of his stuff! and he´s also got a really cool personality from what came across in the show!and Austin was just so classy!
but my favourite part of the show in all seasons is seeing Tim Gunn ;-) ... he´s just awesome!!
I make handmade notebooks :) and like going to the beach when I have time, and occasionally play the ukulele. lol I also recently took up vlogging. I expect I will have no time for any of that when school starts in 2 weeks :(
Mod
How cool! Do you sell them on etsy? If you dont YOU should!
And yah same here, school starts in 2 weeks for me too :(
READing, writing, driving, cooking, baking (but mostly eating), collecting bookmarks, browsing new books to be added into my increasing TBR (to be read) pile, a bit of photography when the whim takes me, travel, spend time with my laptop, movies + tv, and the list goes on.
I like to read, collect bookmarks, play my electirc guitar and play my violin, cake decorating, cooking, baking, learn how to drive a car, ride my bike and making crafts.
Mod
I love cake decorating!!!

Mod
Whats your store url?
Well, apart from reading and blogging about them...I like to write. Nothing major; idk what you guys feel about fan fiction but yeah lol. If I have time, I also like going to movie premieres to see celebs. Not stalkerish though hahaha... after all, LA is LA.
And if I have funds, I love going to the theatre. Like, live theatre not the movies.
My goal one day is to write a children's book. I've taken a couple of courses, but have been slacking as of late, and can't get back into anything like that not even daily journalling. Don't know where to start. I've never written anything before, but I would LOVE to reach and accomplish my goal some day. Any suggestions? Thanks. :)
I love cooking. To me its a form of expression same as painting and sculpting. I'm a vegan, have been for a few months now and I love it.
But my favorite thing in the whole world is buying a new book on my kindle and watching it almost magically appear. So I eagerly read as much as I can and as fast as I can so that I can watch the mgic all over again once what I have is finished. This addiction has opened my eyes to all sorts of books and has made me an avid book lover.
Besides reading I really like to bake when I have the time. It's pretty much all I do during christmas season. I also really like watching films, and reading celebrity gossip.
Mod
I am into celebrity gossip as well! Haha it is addicting, sad to admit

It really is. I try to only keep tabs on people who are really famous, or people who I am personally rooting for, or like or whatever. But I check the site I read at least three times a day on average.
Mod
hahahha same! What site to you browse on?

When I mention my hobby to people, you can almost see a question mark appear on ones face. My hobby is recording College football games. I have around 2,000 games basically from 1969 to the present. If it is allowed here is my web site.
www.freewebs.com/tjohn33791
I do watch a lot of Youtube. Makeup tutorials, funny stuff, interviews, and whatnot. I used to record cover songs but I haven't for quite some time.
Mod
Have to check it out!
Wow, everyone sounds really cool on here. I too am a Project Runway fan, though I have never sewed anything in my life. I just love the passion the contestants have for their craft...makes me envious :). However, I've recently expressed an interest in learning how to sew skirts and simple dresses after coming across some different 'how to' sites on Stumble Upon. My hubby, who does upholstery for fun, has offered to show me how to work a sewing machine....so we'll see where this goes. I love wearing dresses, so how cool would it be to wear my own stuff!
I love Food Network. I can watch ANYTHING from that channel. I also LOVE Top Chef.My mom and I watch Project Runway too. And any reality design or cooking show really... :)
Mod
I love project runway!
And cate..... I love cupcake wars (:
I crochet, not as often as I'd like though. I write, sometimes. I love baking, but I don't really eat cake or cookies, firstly because I don't like cakes secondly because I'm lactose-intolerant. I love walking, biking in the countryside - I'm fortunate enough to live in one :)
