I\'ve got a few hobbies I\'ve been working on. I\'m an inactive member (for now) of the "Curtain Company Players" local theactrical group and I play AD&D when I can find the time. I was also writing a FanFic/Novel for awhile.. I got about a 160 pages into my rough draft when I got writers block real bad and scrapped it. Lately I\'ve been repairing old PC\'s and am thinking of putting up an Abandonware site that focuses mainly on old programs from the late 80\'s and early 90\'s like FracTooLs, Planix, BodyWorks, Do It on your Desktop, and PCUSA. Now that I\'m back online, I\'ll start making of list of even older programs to add to the collection and may even put up a games section given time. I\'d really like to stick to programs though, since you never find ABware sites that have much more than slowdown utils and PKunzip in their applications section.

My favorite hobby is flamenco dance, and this is my sixth year. I could never quit dancing, cause I absolutely love it. It\'s a perfect way to express myself.
Writing is another hobby of mine. I have written stories as long as I can remember, and it\'s pretty funny to read my old stories. I used to write pretty much without thinking, I just wrote what came to mind. Those texts were pretty chaotic. Nowadays I plan the story, and it becomes much shorter. My short stories usually have a bloody & violent ending. It just turns out that way. Maybe I can\'t write another kinds of endings. Often the story is set in Japan, modern day or feudal. My favorite & most succesful was about a young japanese couple who have problems in their relationship. It ends in tragedy.
I draw, like many others here. This is another thing I\'ve been doing all my life. I\'m definitely not very good at it. But I just cannot be without drawing something, anything. My room is full of drawings. I\'m trying to draw manga-style, but I suck. I\'ve been very desperate lately, cause no matter how much I practise, I can\'t get them right...
I\'d call japanese culture my hobby, because I spend a lot of time learning and doing things that are related to it. Like playing & reading manga, mostly Sailor Moon.
Mythology - I just bought a huge book on this subject, because it forever interests me. Any mythology will do. But my speciality is Greek.
Trying to make the world a better place by showing other people what\'s wrong in it. I don\'t care what that makes me.
I suppose talking about myself is another hobby judging from this post 8(
-
Drawing is very popular here, I used to draw much in my teen days - and I was not bad at all - but now I don`t do it much. I just draw some comic characters while I´m surfin - to pass the loading times :D
My main hobby is drumming. And my band is quite good, but its very hard to get a foot into the music business.We have just finished our 2nd CD and hope we get a deal.
And it`s even more expensive hobby than gaming...
-
