Favorite Thing to Do: Read, especially adventure/fantasy/period dramas.

How I'm Like Movie Anastasia: I don't really know, I've never thought about it. I guess I can be quiet- really quiet- until you get to know me, then I'm crazy :)

How I'm Different from Movie Anastasia; She is a little more outgoing and willing to burst spontaneously into song. I tend to be more reserved and quiet (usually.) She is also pretty fearless and I am usually nervous about things.

Okay, that's it!
It's Been a Real Slice.
