I think we all have a general idea of where everyone works, but what about what we do in our spare spare time. That time when we have it all to ourselves- usually alone in our bedroom, under a tree in the park, in the back of a library or anywhere else we get privacy from prying eyes.

Are you into something that your family never noticed, or you just never mentioned. Would others find it strange or exciting that your into this? I'd really like to know.

I dive heavily into art- fashion, graphic design, illustraton, photography,etc.

When I'm not at work or surfing the web I surround myself with the Japanese art of comics(manga) and the cartoon form of the book anime. It's been a love of mine for sometime now (atleast the last 4 years). I take it as serious as my time can allow me to commit- from reading the latest volume from the library, watching episodes on youtube, or even browsing various books on the the subject. I dig into it as much as possible, whenever possbile.
Manga covers a wide genre of subjects- from folklore, sci-fi, military, highschool life to religious/spiritual concepts and thriller/horror.

For those who don't know what I'm talking about, this is what they are:
manga (Bleach, Fruits Basket, inuyasha)

I hope one day to pursue my own manga and become popular enough to produce an anime out of it. I am currently devloping an anmerican comic with a friend.
