Entry Number One, Week Six: Fun with Lists. "My Lovely Lists."

A). List five hobbies that sound fun
1.     I would love to be able to sew. Three women in my family possess this skill: my maternal great-grandmother, Marie, my “Nana”, and my paternal grandmother, Sarah. I am fascinated when I watch Project Runway and Mad Fashion; I admire the artistry of the tailors and seamstresses.
2.     Cooking and/or baking would be a fun hobby. Engineering a recipe requires science and art. However, I am not equipped with the time and financing to support this particular hobby.
3.     Although this skill is not in my DNA, I desperately wish I could draw in my free time. My roommate could make amazing, life-like sketches in a matter of hours. Drawing is a fun, stress-free, whimsical way to transcribe the feelings and beliefs of an artist.
4.     My best friend was always able to make the cutest bracelets. I think that would be enjoyable, as well as fashionable.
5.     Honestly, even though this is conventionally masculine, I would love to work on cars as a hobby. I know the absolute bare minimum about cars, but I love to get my hands dirty.
B). Five classes that sound fun
1.     Disaster Psychology
2.     Child and Adolescent Psychopathology
3.     American Sign Language
4.     The Literary Critic’s Craft
5.     Calculus
C). Five things you would personally never do that sound fun
1.     Sky dive (My cousin’s boyfriend sky dives; it sounds nuts!)
2.     Model high-fashion clothes (I may not exude fashion, but I appreciate it.)
3.     Move to another country (I watch House Hunter’s International and yearn for the impossible dream of owning a second home, or perhaps just making a new beginning.)
4.     Participate in a triathlon (The athleticism in competitors is astounding; I would be too embarrassed to even try.)
5.     Get a tattoo (It is true that there are some tacky tattoos; however, some tattoos are so symbolic and beautifully designed.)
D). Five things you used to enjoy doing
1.     Dancing
2.     Reading
3.     Running
4.     Making movies

E). Five silly things you would like to try once
1.     Ride a cow
2.     Have a food fight
3.     Karaoke with my girlfriends
4.     Be part of a flash mob
5.     Get a motorcycle and go to Sturgis
