Favorite Things

These are a few of my favorite things:

  1. Musicals, but I bet you caught on to this already.  Ironically, I wouldn't count The Sound of Music in my top 3. While it's hard to narrow down favorites, I will gloat that I have seen Phantom. On Broadway. 
  2. People. I'm actually an introvert (I get my energy from alone time), but I'm one of those crazy outgoing introverts. My Myers-Briggs says I'm an ESFJ. I'm equally satisfied spending an entire day in stirring conversation with a few close friends than I am playing hostess at a party full of people. Both events typically include wine.
  3. Learning. A daily event. 
  4. New media. To the contrary of people who don't partake, it's not always an egotistical effort to tell everyone I know whenever I eat a piece of toast (a partial quote from anonymous contact).  It's a tool, a channel to connect with everyone from my neighbors here to my friend in Spain.
  5. Service. It's why I dedicated my life to serving my country for a year with AmeriCorps, cultivating a hunger to serve that will continue until my last breath.
  6. Finding new favorite things.
