I have been reading books independently since I was a young child, and have since expanded my personal library to have about 400 books- all consisting of different genres and plots, but all thoroughly enjoyable. Even books that I don't immediately sink into, I finish for the sake of something new to think about for a while. I'm always open to talking about my favorite books and series along with those of others, I love recommending and getting recommended new things to consume. Writing plays hand-in-hand with my reading, and after absorbing so much different content, I find writing to be the best outlet for letting stray thoughts and stories and even my own emotions out, even if they're kept to only my eyes.
I've also been keeping reptiles for 3 1/2 years, I currently have 5 snakes and 1 lizard, but plan on expanding once I'm more financially independent and have the freedom to do so. Animals are a passion of mine and being able to watch some of my favorites thrive right in front of me is truly a blessing, though I respect the opinion of those who are fearful of snakes anyways.
Who doesn't like music? I listen to so much music you'd think that I'd know how to play it all by now (working on it).
