I love to travel - my favorite destinations are Paris, St. Petersburg (Russia - not Florida), Cuba, Cruises, Camping (roughing it), Prague, Venice. I like rap, hip hop, 80's music, and hate country music.

I sing loudly in the car, I love hockey (especially Mark Messier even though recently retired), I love watching any sports, from golf to track to curling to basketball. I LOVE the olympics

I watch a lot of scary movies, documentaries, CNN, CSI, reality shows, especially Survivor, American Idol, Canadian Idol and The Amazing Race. I get a kick out of satirical news shows, especially Rick Mercer (for Canadians) and Jon Stewart (for Americans).

I am the optimist amongst my friends and they often come to me to be cheered up, for advice or a compassionate ear. I can be very objective and enjoy discussing things that make me think. I have a sense of humour that is the centre of my personality.

I am silly, stubborn, and sweet.

Making people feel comfortable to be around me

People I love, Laughter, Travel, Music, Q-Tips (see below for reason), Intellectual discussions

Politics, astronomy, hockey, travel, being outside, wondering "why" about anything and everything.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE cleaning my ears with Q-Tips so much that I do it 2-3 times a day. It is so awesone how it feels! I used to even have some in my drawer at work. Can you say weird addiction?

I also used to be a full fledged clown - not the carnivel/party type, but one who travelled in a clown troop, performing skits for various events and charities.
