reading—I love to read all sorts of stories, but particularly fantasy and historical fiction. Fantasy, especially young adult fantasy, are my favorite because such stories teach young people what good and evil are by creating extreme situations that they may never encounter, but that they may be able to learn from and apply to real life (like Harry Potter on friendship and the willingness to stand up against prejudice), and historical fiction because such stories show us what could have been. I also enjoy watching mindless TV, action movies, and cartoons. I really enjoy listening to music and I LUVVV corny jokes!!!
