Hobbies!

Sports, politics, movies, videogames, questionable hobbies, photos from your family vacation, etc. Talk about stuff that isn't ponies or music. But do try to stay on topic and respectful of alternate opinions.

Hobbies!

Other than music and MLP, what are some of your hobbies? Do you collect stuff? Draw? Armed robbery? What do you like doing just because you like doing it?

I like astronomy, and just like going out with my telescope in a field somewhere and then watch the sky. I also like collecting hot sauces. Yep. Hot sauces. :3

Airsoft. I love me some airsoft.

Been thinking about playing paintball, but feel more like playing airsoft.

Got so much stuff for it too, been thinking of selling some of it to buy music gear.

Researching theoretical physics and other unusual/traditionally difficult sciences like quantum mechanics. I have a huge interest in the unusual side of our universe, from 'simple' things like the moons Titan and Europa to more 'advanced' things like hypothetical exotic matter, antimatter, black holes, etc.

I basically have a mini fetish for the unknown/unknowable.

Oh, I also like drawing. A lot. If I don't do it for a few days I get really bad at it, so I usually doodle rather than take notes in class. I think i'd die if I didn't...

I wish I was able to do active sports, but I'm not. Skiing, snowboarding and cycling look a lot of fun :(

Anyway, I'm just getting into photography. Fun times.

Snowboarder here. I also like shooting and off roading.

I love to draw, although I almost NEVER upload my hand drawings to the internet. . . . maybe I should.

I love spicy foods. I love classical guitar, although I'm not sure I can call that a hobby since I'm taking it as my principle instrument here at college. I've taken a great liking to making cheesecakes. Piano I guess you could call a hobby of mine. Horseback riding is amazing (real horses not these fake colorful ones everyone is obsessed over).

Mountain hiking, bugging my roomates with my pony toys, airsoft/laser tag, chess, puzzle games like Tomb Raider, online games like LoL, LotRO, and Sevencore, talking about super nerdy music terms I'm learning, camping - I could go on.

I'm part of the club. Right sleeve grab technique?


I do parkour. Have been for...three years now? I'm at a point where I just have to train more. I have every movement down on a basic level at least. Some things are more train-able in the area I live than others.

I play DnD with friends. Though we pretty much fucked up the rules. It's comedy DnD.

I game a lot. With friends. We play lots of Mario Kart, SSB, and Kirby's Air Ride.

My hobbies are quite oddly far in the spectrum of how different they are in my opinion..

I am quite active in sports, as I play hockey, I ski, play tennis, baseball, do marathons & I'm a semi-professional bowler.

Other than that, I have nothing else other than music as a hobby :)

My hobbies, hmmm. Conlangs, world building, swimming. I want to try rock climbing but there isn't much opportunity for me right now. Same thing with SCUBA diving. I love what I have done with it but I haven't quite finished my certification yet.

Also speaking related things like debate/forensics and model UN.
