Extracurricular: Not as passionate as I am about math, but I really like watching movies and talking about them afterwards. See my movie blog here: What I think of a movie, where I write about what I think of a movie I saw. I am also a member of two separate book clubs which I actively participate in on a regular basis (see here for my booklists).
