Hobbies
I enjoy playing board games with friends, walking my dog, watching movies, and gardening. In the winter, my husband and I like to go skiing and snowboarding, and of course sled riding! Sci-fi/fantasy and horror books are my favorite to read, my favorite being the Wheel of Time series. As important as being studious is, a good work/life balance is very important for success!
