Most importantly, I love spending time with family and friends, although family seems to get more of my time! My passions include teaching, theater, dance, singing, music, reading, writing, being obsessive about certain TV shows/movies, school, learning, relaxing, certain hunky actors (Johnny Depp, Ryan Reynolds).
