I'm plugged into several fandoms: 1.- SCIENCE I love science, absolutely adore reading scientific books, watching documentaries and talks such as TED talks or The Amazing Meeting. With personal heroes like Carl Sagan, Richard Feynman, Stephen Hawking, Richard Dawkins, Charles Darwin, Neil DeGrasse Tyson and several others... 2.- PHYSICS This could be included in Science but Physics is my passion, it's the science of everything! I'm specially into quantum mechanics or "particle physics". 3.- ASTRONOMY I've always been fascinated by the outter space. When I was a kid I was convinced I was an alien. Now one of my fave hobbies is looking up thorugh my telescope as an amateur astronomer and reading any related material. 4.- STAR WARS I'm a Sci-Fi freak and Star Wars is one of my life obsessions Specially the Expanded Universe novels for the New Republic Era.

Star Wars. I'm also a historical reenactor. Star Wars history, or "normal" human history?

Sadly, just normal. I do want to join the 501st Star Wars Imprial Garrison, though!

I'm just gonna list a few things, mainly because I could sit here forever droning on and on about the stuff I'm a fan of/interested in
Fictional Franchises: 1) Indiana Jones 2) Star Wars 3) Marvel, both the comics and the Cinematic Universe 4) Doctor Who 5) Sherlock Holmes 6) A Song of Ice and Fire 7) James Bond 8) The Discworld novels 9) Yes, I like the ponies as well. Was among the first to get into it when the first season of the current show started and the fans were basically restricted to the target audience, their parents, and animation fans like me. Still find the show well animated and well written, but the fandom's kinda gotten a bit, well, crappy. 10) The X-Files 11) Dinotopia. 12) I've finally gotten into the Elder Scrolls franchise with Skyrim 13) Team Fortress 2. If you've ever played with or against a not-so-good player by the screen name of Disney Prince Han Solo, that's me 14) Primal Carnage 15) A lot of pulp stories, especially the classics like Edgar Rice Burrough's stuff, Robert E. Howards stuff, and H.P. Lovecraft's stuff 16) Supernatural
Other things that interest me: 1) Archaeology. God, I should hope this is and interest of mine since I'm getting my Bachelors degree in it in a month. lol 2) History 3) Geology, mainly as it applies to archaeology, and the entire subset of Paleontology. Almost majored in Geology with a focus in Paleontology actually. Didn't decide between the two until my senior year of high school 4) I do draw on occasion, though right now none of my stuff I've posted online in the last six years since I've actually gotten into it is of any major quality and is actually pretty embarrassing 5) Prop making. Only recently gotten into this, largely inspired by the Propnomicon blog 6) Writing, primarily fiction. I have yet to write anything I really feel is of any quality to be published. I had two poems I published in my high school's literary magazine, but they weren't anything special. And the first one that was published, whoever transcribed it wound up writing the word "bumps" into "humps" which changed the entire meaning of the poem. Especially embarrassing since I went to a Catholic High School. Other than those I haven't published anything in a literary magazine like that. College kind of kept me too busy to contribute to my college's, and almost all my good stuff from before college was lost when my old laptop had its first hard drive failure two years ago

I am interested in several things. I am currently studying business as a major and psychology as a minor and have a year left. I have always had an interest in dinosaurs, but never took it past hobby level. I wanted to study paleontology when I was a kid, but then I realized that I was better at doing other things.
I enjoy reading the classics, philosophy, philology, ethnic cuisine, medicine, parapsychology, writing short stories about things that occur in my dreams and listening to classical music.
I am also an avid beer guy.

I'm not into a lot these days as I used to be heavy on, but
Batman Star Wars Tron (1, 2, Uprising) Pirates of the Caribbean Assassin's Creed (though I'm iffy now on the recent games) Lego Marvel Movies DC Movies Dragon Ball Z Gundam Wing (yea, 'Wing' in particular. Not sure why but it stands out against some of the other Gundam series) Romance Anime Transformers
Poetry Photography Writing in general (I singled out poetry earlier because that, to me, is sort of it's own thing in my book) Customizing/building things Soundtrack music in general
I'm scratching my head, I feel like there should be other things on this list but lately I've been pretty focused on Jurassic World, so I haven't been looking into my other faves as much the past year or so. so yea
