Aladdin: Ah, Disney! My first fandom! I think I've been a fangeek even before the internet existed. Ever since Aladdin(first Disney movie I really loved) came out in theaters, it was my personal mission to come up with sequels and new stories. In my personal fanon, Mosenrath is Aladdin's long-lost brother, and he works with an evil Djinn named Nahsaan. I never posted any of these stories, but it's still fun to look back on them.
Avoiding Stalkers: This is one I did in solidarity with a friend of mine. She was having trouble with this creepy girl she used to be e-friends with constantly trying to contact her. Eventually, she started to contact the friends of my friend to try to harass them into passing on messages. That friend of mine left LJ a while back due to issues with the site, and there haven't been any troubles since.
Castlevania: Really, this one just shows that I haven't updated my interests in a looooooong time. XD It's a video game series that I love, but I've never really done much with it.
Cryptozoology: One of my hidden obsessions. I'm a big believer that there's undiscovered species out there. It just makes sense. Humanity hasn't covered every inch of this globe. I'm not a big fan of stories of UFOs or ghosts, but when it comes to "mystery animals" my mind goes absolutely mad!
Kosher Cooking: This is an interesting one. I'm a not-particularly-religious Jew. I don't keep Kosher usually, except for obeying certain things like the Yom Kippur fast or the ban on eating bread during passover. But I have a lot of religious relatives, and my allergies to dairy make kosher meat cooking (no dairy allowed!) very appealing. So I'm always on the lookout for new recipes and restaurants.
Reality TV: OMG. I'm the biggest reality TV nerd alive, I think. Only competitive ones, though. I don't like the "relationship" shows or any of the ones that are just episodic. But I love the epic competitive ones like Survivor, Amazing Race, Big Brother, Hell's Kitchen, American Idol, America's Got Talent, and my new obsessions, Wipeout and Greatest American Dog. I actually planned to apply for the second season of Treasure Hunters, which was like TAR with more puzzles and less stunts, but it never went ahead. :(
Zionism: 95% of my relatives live in Israel, so I'm definitely fascinated by and supportive of the country. I'm deeply conflicted over the whole situation there (and oh, God, could I go on a rant about the current prime minister), but overall the country is never far from my thoughts.
