Nature
I've been a pretty active person all my life, however within the past decade I really started to take advantage of nature and all the benefits that come with it! In the past year alone, I've hiked the entire MD section of the Appalachian Trail several times. Frederick is ideal due to location!
Swimming
I used to hate the water and refused to jump in. One summer day (at Hood College - true story!) I was tossed in and haven't come out since! Kidding... slightly. I swam summer league growing up, then club, high school, collegiate, and even coached high school for 5 years.
Hufflepuff? Gryffindor?
Just like with swimming, I showed little interest initially in Harry Potter but grew to love the series most of all. I've reread all 7 books over a dozen times as equally as I have watched all 8 movies. "Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times if one only remembers to turn on the light"
