Hobbies

[Okamakama]

Almost everybody has something they're passionate about, and whilst I assume a lot of us enjoy manga (given it's a One Piece forum), I was wondering what other passions drive you forwards.

Share your hobby and interests here!

Me, I do archery. There is something calming about it - the feel of the taut bowstring in your hand as you stare down the arrow at the target (assuming you're doing barebow) is just very relaxing. I guess it helps calm my chaotic mind.

How about you?

Gaming, reading Bible, running

How often do you read the Bible to make it a hobby?

Running is a nice hobby. Probably one I'd have taken up had I not knackered my knee playing football (Soccer). Do you ever get runner's highs?

Reading the Bible, gaming, training, reading, cleaning, gaming, manga, learning languages, math, physics, 3d modelling

But for me it all ties together and it's like part of the same thing, I don't look it at separate things that drive me forward, I think of it as just one thing

You said gaming twice...!

Learning languages is fun. I've been learning Korean for the last few years because my wife is half-Korean and I want our kids to know it. Wouldn't say it's my hobby yet, maybe next year when I finish my current studies...

You have to explain how cleaning is your hobby though, bro, that's interesting!

Endurance training especially man, it's like the closest you can get to a physical anime fight, and it may have spiritual applications too in that it trains endurance hope patience and faith, strength training is cool but endurance training is a long drawn out hard fight, it's incredible

Are you sure cleaning is a hobby and not an obligation? I clean my car... but that doesn't make it a hobby. How do you make cleaning fun and enjoyable? Is it just satisfying?

It's an obligation but I like to do it more often, you could put it as a hobby, or as not a hobby, not like it's every day

I'm trying my best to read it every day. Which again helps a lot in many things.

Yeah reading it often I think could count as a hobby especially since it is extremely important and a guide to life, it's not like reading a normal book, and even that would count as a hobby, so this would too

Reading and gaming. Definitely want to add more, not sure what though (outside of swimming)

 

[matt245]

I'd say gaming but it's been a while since I've played anything.
So I'll go with music, especially listening to music; I've got like 10000 minutes in the span of 2ish months.
And motorcycles. Don't have one myself but I will soon, since I'm saving money for it

Motorcycles are banging. Wife won't let me have one though, thinks I'll get myself killed. I think she's changing her mind however after seeing how well I drive the car though. What kind of motorcycle do you want?

Favourite books? Any you read recently? My most recent books were the Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn trilogy from Tad Williams!

I should read mine more often. Life has been so hectic of late though. Mad respect for reading it daily. Well done, brother.

Exploring outdoors, thankfully I live in a mountainous area.

Bro, sick. I went hiking recently. It was no mountain climbing, but if you've heard of England's Peak District, you might have an idea of what I'm on about. It was beautiful. What a wonderful hobby.

Man that's awesome, I personally don't like driving or riding a motorcycle, but that sounds incredible, please keep us updated when you get one and how you like, it I hope you use it well and it's amazing

Same for you with the motorcycle

That sounds incredible too, I also like walking along a village in my country or just less populated zones

For books I would recommend the Foundation series

“The temptation was great to muster what force we could and put up a fight. It's the easiest way out, and the most satisfactory to self-respect--but, nearly invariably, the stupidest. ”

Listening to DnD Podcast, going on long walks when the weather is nice and just learning new things

Which is your favourite podcast for that? I play Pathfinder 2e quite frequently, but I used to play D&D.

Long walks are the bomb, my dude. Good for your health as well.

They 100% are lol. I'm personally having the same problem with my parents; they don't want one for my own safety. Which is fair since I'll be driving it as if I was immortal lol.

Thanks man! I'll definitely keep y'all updated thru my motorcycle journey!
