My Newest (and Expensive) Hobbies
I love being active, especially when it comes to outdoor activities.
Adventure Park is in Virginia and is this amazing tree climbing and zip line obsticle course. You can do a daytime adventure or a night time one which is beautiful because the park is lit up with lights.
Indoor rock wall climbing is an amazing workout and so much fun. There is a mini one here at TAMU-CC. Give it a try. It's a great starter one to see if it's a workout for you.
I've recently started running and this summer, began running 5K's. This is an addicting, healthy, and sometimes expensive hobby. Some of the ones I've ran are the NASA Moon Walk / Run / Roll 5K, Military Challenge, and Fallen Heroes 5K. I've gotten my boyfriend and best friend hooked on them too. I highly recommend trying one (you can walk them) and see just how fun and exilerating they can be. There are several held here in Corpus Corpus and there are also virtual ones that you register for.

Some of My Loves
I love to take photos. I can usually always be found with a camera and taking photos.
Snoopy is my favorite character. I love all things Snoopy. He reminds me of my dog, Buddy. If you stop by my office, you will see how big my obsession is.
I'm not only a gamer nerd, I'm also a board game nerd. I like playing all kinds of board games, but my absolute favorite is "The Settlers of Catan".
Finally, I also love to cook and bake. I find it relaxing and a great way to be artistic. I love Pinterest cause it gives me so many new recipes to try.
