PERSONAL STUFF

[ THE INTERESTS ]:

• Pizza. Particularly Chicago deep dish.
  
• Isaac and Isabelle, his best friends.
  
• The stage, of course. If he's not carousing around the school, chances are Simon's in the auditorium working on one thing or another.
  
• Traveling. He's been planning a post-graduation roadtrip for Isaac and himself since he was a third year.
  
• Drinking. Alcohol's always been much more of Simon's thing than the other available substances. He does quite a bit of drinking, but rarely for the sake of getting drunk. He really just...enjoys alcohol.
  
• Improv. Improvisational shows are one of Simon's favorite things to go out and watch. They're almost always hilarious, and the skill it takes to do it so well has him jealous to the core.
  
• Stupid photographs. He has a large box of pictures of himself and his friends making stupid faces standing next to stupid things.
  
• Running. While Simon hates running for anyone by himself, he starts every day with a jog around the campus.
  
• Dancers. He could never do it, but boooy is it hot.
  
• Secret affairs. Not necessarily affairs like affairs, but mischief has always been one of Simon's favorite things, and things that happened that REALLY shouldn't have happened tends to be right up his ally.
  
• His family. Simon is well aware that he owes his academic career at Harriman's to his parents, and overall enjoys their company. Also, he has a little sister that he just loves to bother.
  
• Graffiti. He's done his fair share of vandalization in his day.
  
• Stupid jokes. Because sometimes thinking of stuff that's actually funny is just too much work.
  
• Watching fights. The physical kind in particular just makes him giggle.
  
• Writing letters. Letters are one thing that Simon writes quite well. Essays, poems, and pretty much everything else are far from in his skill level. But letters are just whatever's on your mind, which makes it easy.
  
• Westerville, Ohio. He's lived there his entire life, and there's something quite charming about it.

[ THE HOBBIES ]:

• Flirting. Oh yes, it's definitely a hobby.
  
• Running. For reasons listed earlier.
  
• Collecting Photographs.
  
• Yo-yoing, something he likes to do when he's on his own.
  
• Fixing things. He's quite mechanical.
  
• Eating. Is that a hobby?
  
• Isabelle. Once again, that IS a hobby, right? ;D

[ THE DISLIKES ]:

• Smoking. Even though Isaac does it.
  
• Writing. He's horrible at it.
  
• Broadway. The acting's fine; he just doesn't like the singing.
  
• Sappy songs. Just not his thing.
  
• His own feet. Calluses aren't something attractive.
  
• Scented candles. Just another pollutant, and they don't even smell that great!
  
• Skipping meals. Growing boys need their nutrition, y'know.
  
• The spring. Too mushy and messy.
  
• The summer. Too little to do without his friends.
  
• Long phone conversations. He has limited minutes, and they're to be used wisely.
  
• Prudes. Party-poopers. Anything or anyone that rains on his parade.
  
• Parades. He's considered too old to grab the candy, so where's the fun anymore?
  
• Sushi. Something about it just seems veeery unhealthy.
  
• Getting in fights. Intensity's never been his thing.
  
• His creepy uncle Jerry. Speaks for itself.
  
• Girly magazines. More mushy crap.

[ THE FEARS ]:

• Tapeworms.
