What Is Your Hobby?

I'm just curious what SN do with their spare time. I go through a lot of boredom phases and am hoping to hear something that would spark my interest. Go!

Re: What Is Your Hobby?

  • The only hobbies I have are reading, writing, video games (if that qualifies). And that's about it. Gardening coming soon, but I would like more. I like having projects.
  • -Reading

    -Cooking / fiddling around in the kitchen (most the times it at least turns out edible)

    -Volunteering (I do probably 20 hours a week, but I consider it my job - I just don't get a paycheck for it)

    -The piano (haven't taken lessons in years but I occasionally sit down and play)

    -Working out (I do at least 1 hour a day, 6 days a week)

    -Traveling (or, more often, researching places I want to travel in the future)

    I'm currently trying to find a good place to re-learn Spanish (rather ironic that I can't find a Spanish class anywhere near my house since I live in the Hispanic / Latin area of SF), and I also want to start doing yoga.  There's a yoga studio 1/2 block from where I live, but most the yoga classes this particular studio offers appear to be preggo-yoga.  Also they only offer their intro yoga class like once every two months, and the last time they offered it was Sunday at 3:30 PM.  Even if I didn't care about the Patriots or Giants, I still wasn't skipping the Super Bowl to attend an intro yoga class (probably shows I am not their target customer, eh?).

  • I have way to many hobbies, just ask my hubby!

    Scrapbooking, cardmaking, (anything with Rubber Stampin pretty much), Quilting, reading, crocheting, playing the piano, Sewing (as long as I don't have to wear it for the most part), flower arranging. 

    I think that's most of them.

    Beer - H and I brew some ourselves every 3-5 months.  And I'm a big fan of drinking it!

    Reality TV - not a real hobby, but with the amount I watch it should be!

    My dog - I love finding new dog friendly activities around Seattle.

    I wish that was me - I *hate* going to the grocery store.  I would totally do Amazon Fresh (if we had it in SF); we have Safeway delivery but they give you a four hour window in which they'll deliver, and quite frankly I don't trust them to select my produce because I am uber-picky about that stuff... I would shop at Whole Foods but every time I get rung up there I'm always like, 'Holy $hit, this place is so expensive' - but I do actually like that grocery store.  So clean and it feels almost like a farmer's market...   

  • Reading - on book 4 of the Song of Ice and Fire
    Video Games
    Home decorating
    Various Sewing Projects, Jewelry making, card making, acrylic painting (rarely), and whatever random project strikes my fancy

  • Photography, crafts, reading, sometimes writing and journaling, volunteer work, hiking/wandering/camping, dog time (walks, park, playing in the yard), and not really hobbies, but gardening/home improvement and gym/exercise take up a bit of my time.
