Game of Thrones
Everything about this show and book series absolutely captivates. What isn't there to love about knights and kings and queens and ladies all wrapped into an inter-continental political battle? Not only that, but the fantasy element along a backdrop of realistically gritty politics keeps me interested and hooked on every episode and patiently waiting for the next book. If you haven't seen this show, I urge you to at least check out the first episode or if you have a large chunk of time to fill, please read the first book. I promise you won't regret it.
Video Games
I'll be the first to admit that I am not the best video game player or even the most mediocre. That doesn't mean I can't have fun or research their lore, however. I've poured the most hours into Civilization V, an epic country-building game that places you as a ruler of a specific country to lead to victory over the others. There are other games I like though such as Skyrim, a game about one powerful individual's quest to destroy the dragons, and Dark Souls, a challenging adventure quest game about bringing light back to a world being slowly eaten by the darkness. I haven't beaten either of these yet, but someday I might.
Music
This is an extremely broad category of things to geek out about, but it was very hard to pinpoint a specific genre I felt I especially obsessed over. I have spent hours reading about every detail of a song's composition or writer on Wikipedia and memorizing the lyrics because a song would not leave my mind. Some of my favorite artists are Fall Out Boy, Coldplay, and Taylor Swift.
I hope this helped you get to know me a bit more and if you ever want to chat about any of my interests, feel free!
