hello there! I'm Lennon Stevie and welcome to my Dreamwidth.

I answer to Lennon Stevie, Lennon or Stevie but no diminutives please. I'm named after John Lennon and Stevie Nicks - as the daughter of a music teacher who loves Fleetwood Mac and an English/Drama teacher who loves The Beatles, there really was no hope for me growing up. Completely unsurprisingly, I'm a music/musical theatre nerd bookworm and work for a music venue.

Music wise, I love: 2cellos, Aerosmith, The Beatles, Fleetwood Mac, Green Day, John Lennon, Lin-Manuel Miranda, One Direction, Paul McCartney, Phil Collins, Stevie Nicks
But also: Claude Debussy, Franz Schubert, George Gerswhin, Gustav Holst, Igor Stravinsky, JS Bach, Ludwig Van Beethoven, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Richard Wagner, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart,
And randomly: Al Bowlly, Avenged Sevenfold, Billie Holiday, Count Basie, Deep Purple, Julie Andrews, Maud Powell, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Stan Kenton

My hobbies include playing music (drums, guitar, piano), singing, ice-skating, roller-skating, skateboarding, ballroom dancing, running, yoga, gymnastics, going to concerts and curling up with a good book or a movie/tv show.
I want to learn to play a woodwind instrument, to improve my french, ballet and possibly something like pottery or woodwork.

Fandomwise, I'm all about musicals/musical theatre, Disney, old Hollywood and anything relating to the stories of King Arthur and Robin Hood

The paragraph about your name is both delightful and ♥! What a great story. *g*

Also I'm super impressed by the number of hobbies you have, and how 'active' they all are. (Unlike my 'reading'. o_O)

My given name is Elizabeth Barrette, pleased to meet you. I met a James Bond at a convention once too. :D

I like listening to music, watching dance, and reading.

Those are good plans. I've done ceramics, it's fun. Many colleges have ceramics classes and these can often be taken on a nondegree basis. Sometimes you can find a separate studio too. See also metal clay, which is not actually earth clay but works similarly, only you get metal jewelry in the end.

Regarding French: check your DVD collection, almost all of them should have a French track since it's a world language. If you watch a show you already know in a new language, it helps your brain make the connections. The only better immersion I've found is live conversation.

My partner is a huge animation fan so we have a big collection of the Disney movies.

>> old Hollywood and anything relating to the stories of King Arthur and Robin Hood <<

The Ursulan Cycle is genderbent King Arthur.

It looks like we have some interests in common. Feel free to drop by my blog and see if you like it.
