My biggest "hobby" is dance. Specifically Middle Eastern dance aka belly dance. I also spend a fair amount of time (and $) with related sewing/costuming. It's a *huge* part of my life, and I'm quite good at it (if I may say so myself :P). It's something I can do where I feel very confident, and that right there is worth it's weight in gold. And omg performance is so fun! Especially when the tips are good...please people, tip your belly dancers well!
Standard notice: No, it's not like stripping. Nothing against strippers at all, just not the same thing. It's really family entertainment.
Because of dance I became interested in fitness (esp. weight-lifting and yoga).
Also becoming interested in the history of Burlesque and in Neo-Burlesque performance (I have a friend who's very involved in the LA scene, she gives me the inside line on folks, shows, how-to, everything).
I also like to travel (don't get to do much, but I do what I can), read fiction, learning about anime (rank, rank novice here. but I'm willing to learn) and wine.
