Tell us all a hobby of yours that many people aren't aware of.
One of mine that most people don't know is that I really like to hook rug. It's pretty much the only domestic thing that I'm capable of besides basic baking. I can sew, but pretty much only in a clothes repairing way. Hook rugging is fun, but it can get so frustrating! :3
I breed fish which I'm sure people have no idea about xD
Really? That's pretty interesting actually.Quote:

But sometimes people come in and take my blu tack so they can use it to 'hold things up'.. geez:mad:
I've been pretty lazy and lacking funds so I haven't done much the last few months but I breed bettas, sword tails and mollies. I was working ona tiger strip swordtail but I cba xD I was mixing red wags with black swordtails and got some good babies. I prefer breeding bettas to any other fish. Well i generally prefer bettas to any fish. They actually have personalities.Quote:

Do taking and making personality quizzes count? I'm absolutely obsessed with them... I made a Which Final Fantasy 8 Character Are You quiz on quizilla but I think it's kind of lame now so I started making another one... and yesterday I took like 3 Disney princess quizzes. 2 told me I was Sleeping Beauty, which I kinda figured I'd get.
People don't know that when I'm alone, I practise sentai poses.
I have a collection of model cars. Quite a lovely collection actually. I don't buy them or anything, but I like getting them as presents. :D
Bitches don't know bout my being Anon
i play piano, i draw and play basketball.. nothing more and they arent that secret
Well, it's not really a hobby, but more of a obsession/interest.
I collect Laurel & Hardy DVD's, tapes and merchandise, as I'm a big fan.
Reading.
It's not much of a secret, it's just that no one believes that I can read.
I collect comics, but thats too easy to guess. =/
Aside that.....I guess these forums.
The Main hobbies for me are videogames, Karate, Running,reading some strategy books, Train with weapons - I can use the Tonfas, the Sais, the Nunchakus and the Katana ...and if it counts, the Slingshot :p.
And I guess the University takes the rest of the time.
Steel-fighting.
Basically, rediscovering and recreating the Western steel-weapons martial arts, and related combat styles. Everything from English broadsword and quarterstaff to German longsword and rondel dagger.
wow.. thats pretty cool.Quote:

But even a blunt sword can hurt, of course, and a staff is blunt anyway. So we control our blows. Strike fast, but pull the blow so it doesn't land at full force.Quote:

I'm pretty sure most people know my hobbies, them being; reading, writing, gaming (and game development), watching films, listening to music and socialising. Ones people may not know about are; Iceskating, learning languages and hiking. At the moment I am trying to learn Polish, it's incredibly hard (for a european language, 32 character alphabet and some of them I can't even pronounce without laughing at myself) hopefully I'll get better at it soon.
SLEEP XD

I have no secret hobbies what so ever! But, i do a lot of sports
I do:
Drums
Volleyball
Karate
Soccer
Swimming
Basketball
Yeh, just those..
Not many people know I like learning new words and languages. I'm learning Japanese at the moment (I just started, but I think I'm progressing well, I've already memorized 20 Hiragana characters and a few phrases, and I've only been at it for less than a week now). I'm also guilty of opening a dictionary merely for the sake of finding a new word and learning how it's used.
Same, I feel pathetic I can't think of any hobbies I have that aren't known here already or that are interesting enough to post. Maybe, one of these days I'll think of something and tell you but for now...Quote:

Hello kitty CD deck, Hello Kitty phone, chairs, plastic cabinets, rugs, minature cabinets, file cabinet, plastic folders, purse, cellphone holder.
I think writing would be my secret hobby but it has been ages since I wrote anything. x-x;
My collection of Calvin and Hobbes comics. I have a really old copy of "The Essential Calvin and Hobbes" no one sees me as a Calvin and Hobbes fan though, it depresses me a little.
I make zines (I have one to finish this weekend) and indulge in band photography. I've had some pretty successful results so far, so now I just need to save up for a SLR digital camera so that I can take faster shots. At the moment I'm up against people with 15+more zoom than I have, and with a much faster shutter speed, which means that basically I'm just doing good at the moment because I have more drive than they do, but one day I'm going to get crushed in a mosh pit of death trying to get 'the perfect shot'.
Oh, I almost forgot. I'm also into Puroresu or Puro.
That's Japanese Professional Wrestling. Awesome stuff. :up:
omg i love anything art. when i even pass the arts and crafts section of walmart, my heart races :p i just made two pretty pairs of earrings. maybe ill take pics with my new digicam i got for my 18th bday and post em in the art thread. thats considered art.
and i love cyber-stalking bnads i like. im a conisuer (sp? :p) of mcr , afi, and im working on dimmu borgir. i mainly just look up the band history and the sexy guys lol. like gerard way (of course, my aim name is mrsway <3), his lil bro mikey, davey havok, and stian thoresen. sexy little thangs. lol <3
Oh yeah, I forgot my other hobby; using archaic web browsing software:D So far I've collected netscape 1.22 and IE 5.2.3mac.
Oh yeah, I had a copy of lynx that was pretty fun too!
i umm also sometimes use my magic powers to induce chaos, confusion, misery, and angst among those im around. i call my special abilities pms :p i do it all the time. people hate me :(
Oh wait, I DO have one! I just remembered!
I love watching Sumo.
EoFF :bigsmile: Other than that I think that all my hobbies are pretty well-known by my friends..
Oh wait! I like to write, which is something many people don't know about...
i like to do sudoku every once in awhile. i use to play at work a lot when i was bored.
i also like to catch snakes crockidile hunter style with my bare hands. so far ive gotten every sanke in my area includeing the venomous copperhead and timber rattle snake.
i compete in the spanish midget wrestling championship.. not really fair though.. cause im thrice their size
I like to play video games, especially ones made by the Square-Enix software publishing company.
Cleaning rifles is fun. ^_^
Using them is more fun.
Yes, I like sending rounds down range, but I like cleaning them more, it is nice and relaxing to kick back, break down a rifle and go to town!
I sometimes enjoy taking a stroll in the neighborhood alone going nowhere and back.
I enjoy to occasionally read, work in Photoshop, and unwind after work with my crack pipe.
I open and lick oxo cubes
http://www.phrases.org.uk/images/oxo.jpg
Very skullish
wtf? are you crazy?! i hating cleaning rifles!!!! they suck! cuz ya gotta fool with all the screws and parts, wool wire, lube, oil on your hands, the drill sergeat yelling at you for not doing it right, reassembling, and retaping (armed exhibition rifles) and reslinging em. bah! humbug! i like shoot them, though loading the clips in cold weather hurt your fingers after a while :\
I pretend to be Jamie Lynn Spears by getting pregnant at a young age. That is my secret hobby that I do occasionally.
I hope you put them back and watch people use them afterwards xD.Quote:

A uncooked beef gravy :p Oxo is a brand of various food products, consisting of stock cubes, herbs and spices, dried gravy, and yeast extract. You are supposed to dispose an oxo cube onto the beef stuff while cooking :P But I ate ONLY oxo cubes without beef.
It's VERY, VERY, VERY tasteful when you start licking one, it has a lot of amount of salt and other stuff. It'd make your head explode :p But I'm still addicted to it, it's not a good thing I suppose.
I play Magic: The Gathering. It's some of the only mental stimulation I get.
