TSR

Lately...the same. :frown:

I've got other hobbies that I only do once a week or once every few weeks, but I'm otherwise seriously bored when I'm not doing these things.

All my time that is not spent at college is spent doing: homework, reading, practising piano, more reading, TSR, more homework, sports, learning more languages on the side :teehee:

I work on saturdays and go to church on Sundays. I read everything in my house. I EAT everything in my house (jokes but college is making me eat more... -__- ) I knit sometimes, I play the flute sometimes. I sing in the choir at college and play in a wind band outside of college... Sometimes I see friends. I'm actually pretty boring :smile:

I always use my spare time concentrating on how I can make more money.

I'm in the same situation, I used to be a competitive figure skater and I trained every day on and off ice. Spare time was kinda a foreign concept, now though I'm so lost without it I just eat so much, work a lot and go out running. I'm thinking about a gym membership :smile:

I read, or I bake something lovely
Just realised I have the social activities of an old age pensioner

Watching tv, online forums, researching one of my obsessions, taking online tests, reading, making random graphs on Excel, writing and making random things.

So basically non-social things.

There is no such thing as 'spare time' for me :sigh:

There is always something to do.

It depends what mood I'm in.

Usually reading, studying, I might go for a walk or browsing on the internet (i.e. TSR).

Of an evening, I tend to chill (internet, music, telly).

At weekends, Im out on duty or sleep in, go for a drive (and a walk if the weathers okay) and try not to think about work :P

If I have a few days off, I like taking trips out or travelling, went up to Scotland at the end of summer (not exactly the Spanish coast, but was still nice :smile:

My mum keeps saying to me "Join evening classes, join clubs". It's pretty obvious from TSR that no one here does anything like that, regardless of whether they're in full education or not!

Browse the internet, or more lately, draw stuff on solidworks

Well, this weekend I've been mostly sleeping and listening to musicals. But it depends, really. I'm a terrible one for picking up hobbies and dropping them. I keep myself just busy enough to stop myself getting bored, but not so busy that I'm overwhelmed. There always seems to be time to procrastinate on facebook and TSR. :lol:

I mostly watch films, listen to music or read. Or stress out because I'm not studying when I should be. :lol:

We're the clever ones. The pensioners took all that time to work out what the best activities are we already know :P

A lot of the time you might be feeling down because you don't get up to much. It's a cycle. Feel down, don't go out. Don't go out, feel down.

In my spare time I play music, collect records (going out around town with a friend, couple of beers, go to a couple charity shops), I cycle, play xbox with my mates from back home, read a lot, hang out with the mrs, cook! (got nothing to do, don't sit around eating supernoodles and having a ****. cook something delicious and share it with someone)..

Recently I started playing football again and took up fly-fishing too. Going to take up some kind of self-defense in the new year as well.

The opportunities are going to be there for you at university, but they're the same opportunities that have always been there. it's upto you to take advantage of them, the football team aren't gonna come round and drag your ass out of bed everyday and you won't just wake up one morning with a pretty little thing lips wrapped round your wang. You gotta get motivated pal.
