Default What are your other hobbies?

What are your other hobbies?
Well that sums it up.
My other hobbies are guitar which Ive been playing for two years onto my third, quite enjoyable jamming out when I am in the mood
and Judo, a martial art and sport, no kicks/punches just flips and throws (damn they hurt) and arm locks and strangles. I am a grren belt the first belt of what is considered to be a high belt and have been doing it for 3 years onto my fourth.

I used to juggle. But I slowly lost intrest in it, I used to juggle 30-60 mins a day after I got home from school. I eventually found practice boring and felt like I was going nowhere! I made one last effort to get back into it but I failed. I just dont enjoy it anymore.

So yeah what are your other hobbies and how long have you been doing it for

well, my other hobbies doesn't fall that far from the magic world, i enjoy pen spinning and dice stacking, because they keep me occupied for a long time( i hate being free without having something to do, "boredom kills me", i might say).

Aside from those, i enjoy reading manga( japanese comics) and discuss them with friends, i also like to write short fantasy stories that pop up in my mind from time to time( heh, i have like 3 good storylines that i like that i haven't seen published before, but my skills are just too horrible to make them appealing to others)

Contrary to most boys my age( High school sophomore), i actually hate playing computer games for some reason...

I really don't have no other hobbies then card magic. Because I'm a student all I do is read books and do card magic.

When I'm in the mood I like to draw and paint - but to stress, I must be in the right mood because I believe that to create something worthy of merit takes a lot of patience and concentration which are two things I very often lack. I once sold a portrait to a friend for £70 - something still to this day I'm quite proud of. Currently I'm working in an A6 size book sketching mini portraits of famous inventors/scientists. Next in line is Nikola Tesla.
I also love cooking and building stuff out of wood - though I am certainly no carpenter.

hmmm, i think a nicely drawn painting of a magician that have just finished with a sandwich routine would be appealing to magicians( suddenly that old painting with the dogs playing card pops on my head)

Other hobbies..
Archery, been doing that for about 3 years now - achieved 4 internationally recognised awards in the sport.
Gaming, I love it - also trying to get my own game review show made and onto TV.
Don't have a lot of time to do either really, what with it being exam period and I'm doing A Levels.

I'll play the game, and if I like it - I'll play it :P
Most games I play are RPGs though, WoW, Final Fantasy, DMC ect; but on occasion I'll play beat 'em ups like Tekken and MK

I just recently got back into WoW, so I guess that would be my main hobby besides magic!

My hobbies are:
1) Games - not so much anymore. I do occasionally play a little bit of CoD MW2 from time to time if I'm really bored.
2) Watching random YouTube videos xD
3) Doing random research when something pops up in my head. Example: After you eat, on average, what percentage of food leaves the body as waste? Weird? I know.
4) Listening to Music and Chill-laxing. Good moments~
5) Read manga too!
