What's your hobby???

I personally have many hobbies and was wondering what some of yours are. I love to quilt, sew, cook, read (of course), and a few other little crafts like making dreamcatchers.

Hobbies. Well reading (not for any literary examination really, only enjoyment of a good story); I play a wide number of sports (and watch even more); Waste Management Practices (yeah, I am that dull) & I like to build things (my current project is a otterman)

I read a lot obviously, but I do a lot of different sports as well. I debate matters of political importance with my friends frequently too. Besides that, I just do whatever I am inclined to do.

my newest hobby: i'm writing a day calendar.

I'm about half way through.

Other than that, I write poetry and books (i'm working on my second)... mostly for my own enjoyment/release... i've only shown them to three or four people.

Aside from that, I love the outdoors, used to go camping once a month, every month of the year.

I also like to read (duh) and I love to learn. I've read most of the articles on my Encarta '97 program.

I think I have more hobbies than I would like, as too many result in distracting me from things like college.
Most of the time, I read (of course), write a lot (poetry, plays, and music), do a lot of walking in natural scenic areas, play chess (face-to-face or on Yahoo Games), cook, chit-chat with some of my good friends and family, attend concerts, watch movies, and, though it never sounds fun to others, study much on the subjects of human anatomy and physiology, microbiology, organic chemistry, and French.
I wish I could commit more to visual arts (sculpting, painting, sketching, etc.), but can never quite develop the talent. :p

I sometimes think I have too many different interests which make me too scatterbrained (I love this word) but yesterday my brother said it doesnt look like I'm really interesting so I've started to wonder...(but he seems not to understand that I study languages and literatures cos I like them, not just as a career choice).
Well I like to read, to listen to music, to learn language even if I can't put myself to do it as a hobby cos if I have no lessons I just avoid studying...though I love to translate (especially songs) when I have time... Well I like to chat, online but not only... and learn things about other cultures...but I guess that travelling doesnt count as a hobby...
I don't really have any 'manual' hobbies as I really lack patience and I'm really clumsy anyway... so everytime I've really made something, it was never as I wanted it to be :S

This is nice to read! Though I must admit I do not have as much to contribute :bawling:. Haha.
I love reading and watching all the detectives and CSI-like television shows. I write whenever I can. Besides that I spent almost all my evenings with friends or my sisters. With my sisters I talk and talk and talk and... With friends I go to the movies, play games (Scrabble, Rummikub, Colonist of Catan, card games) or talk about literature. Oh, and I dance.. I don't do it well.. but love to go to the dancing school and have been going there for nearly 10 years. Classical dances: tango, quickstep, chachacha, stuff like that. Ehm, and lately I have become addicted to coming to forums. Quite bad for me :crash: :D

hmmmm.................reading (what a shocker!), occasionally writing, basketball, American football, football, wrestling, building models of cars and other moving things, and just creating the most insane thoughts that are story-like.

I used to have lots of hobbies, then I became a Mom. :cool:

But now that the little one is a little older, I've been able to re-gain some hobby time. Naturally, reading is a big one, and writing when the muse is upon me (which hasn't been for quite awhile). After those two, are cooking and attempting to maintain some kind of garden in this desert climate that's disguised as a suburb. My final hobby, is maybe best called a collection of hobbies, or what I call my "projects." These frequently have to do with the little one, but not always. They can be anything from organizing a scavenger hunt, to sending a plastic troll on a trip around the world, to learning to make ceramics so I can teach my daughter to make ceramics, "kitchen science" (like growing crystals using laundry bluing and charcoal), and recycling old stuff with no purpose into new stuff with a new purpose.

And I waste a lot of time on the internet.

music, reading, drawing, cinema, drinking...

Aswell as reading, I have an obsession with drumming. I wonder if there are any other members in this forum that are drummers... (pm me if you are).

.....I'm drumming my fingers right now as I try to figure out if any of the miriad of activities I perform can be considered hobbies........


......I'm the type of person that bores rather quickly after I attain a level of profeciency at something......skydiving, motorcycles, whitewater rafting, whatever. I tend to change my hobbies quite frequently..............like now I've stopped drumming my fingers and have begun to tap my foot........

I have a suspicion that i'd be a really good drummer.

I have a lot of hobbies, but the ones I practice most often would be collecting beetles, reading, writing, drawing, and of course, enjoying good music.

Hmm .. i'll try list a few.

Horse riding, baking, reading [obviously], fashion [this includes reading fashion magazines such as Vogue & Harpers & Queen, researching fashion of bygone & much lovelier eras, my favorite being Rococo, shopping even if it's just window-shopping, thinking up new outfits that i'll love & my Boyfriends aunty will tell me she hates :p etc], theatre [i'm an actress with a Youth Theatre but I consider acting my vocation rather than a hobby], collecting G1 [1980s] My Little Ponies, I can play a few instuments but I want to return to violin, learn piano & my Bf is currently teaching me guitar, I also wish to learn many languages, photography [I photograph myself because i've not been spotted by a professional photgrapher yet :p ], attending gigs [i'm an alt. music fan, metal etc], watching films & documentaries, visiting museums & art galleries, and i'd like to consider travelling a hobby too, although I can't afford it right now.

That's all I can think of at this present moment in time :)
