Music
My musical side?
At a young age, I was not the most talented musician. I couldn't sing, I couldn't move my fingers seperately but here I am now. Playing the cello and piano with (in my opinion) very fluid actions. I have perfect pitch and when I sing, I sing in tune. Its just the quality that is... less than perfect. (Sounds like a duck that swallowed a harmonica.)
For all you less musically knowing, a cello is well described here.
Lets hope you know what a piano is. :)

Athletics
It is generally assumed that atheletics is not a great part of an AoPSer's life. I mean what kind of athelete would be sitting here writing this wiki page? Well I follow with that, in moderation.
I love to run. It is something that I discovered this year. Cross country, track. Recently the season has ended and I find myself itching to run.
Tennis. Well I didn't have the best hand-eye around, but I manage to play tennis, relatively well and have lessons every sunday...
