Anting even though I just started.
Breeding reptiles.
Breeding amphibians.
Trying to find new wildlife everyday.
And I have this strange hobby/obsession with scorpions and dragons fly.
Looking into paranomal things or paranormal animals and things like that

[Roachant]

I find most of you/us have similar hobbies!

Keeping ants
Keeping and breeding fish (been doing this for a loooong time)
Keeping reptiles ( not much lately)
Video games both playing and making ( sort of)
Got into drone flying recently
Nature photography
Growing carnivorous plants (among my collection, a 7 year old Venus flytrap and a 5 year old pitcher plant)
Hiking
And work/ family takes up the rest of my time...too much of it actually.
I actually find I have too many hobbies but I can't get rid of them. I usually shift more attention to one or the other, depending on the time of year.

Some kind of pesticide perhaps? That or they are being out competed by something else.

Basically, it goes like this.

 

My kid, and playing with all of his toys.

Mantids, roaches, and ants.

Hairless rat and a dog.

Tom Clancys The Division on xbox one. @ LOOPS117

Playing the drums in a band.

Game of thrones (not much of a hobby, but danggggg)

Reef keeping

Reptiles and amphibians.

Gardening.

[CozmoDog]

Well my hobbies are:

Ant keeping(just started first year or so)
I run with my dog for 1.5 to 2 hours and then we play a bit everyday
I do kickboxing monday/wed/friday
I watch anime or play pc games when i have free time.

I forgot about keeping pray mantis.But I just let them go when they get of age.I found out that the anoles are dying because of my neighbor because she's using stupid pesticide to make her garden better and more prettier

[antsinmypants]

Sleep, sleep and more sleep.

 

Well, if I had more time, I suppose the wish list would go down something like this:

#1) Practicing the piano (gospel, classical, jazz) to the point where I can actually play a song in front of others without looking at the keyboard.

#2) Learning more about electronics (I am currently going through the book entitled 'Make: Electronics, Learning Through Discovery, 2nd edition by Charles Platt). Maybe I'll invent something! Nah, I'll just Google what someone has already thought of and adapt it to what I may have in mind.

#3) Mastering Ardiuno.  I've enrolled in the on-line course at www.programmingelectronics.com" but have discovered that my brain isn't set up to think like a programmer. I find myself going stir crazy thinking like a computer.

#4) Watching more K-dramas (Dramafever.com is okay, but I might switch to Viki.com). My fav K-dramas? Cunning Single Lady, Oh My Ghostess!, Cheer Up!

#5) Finding more K-pop songs to lift up my spirits. Most of what I find to listen to I hear on the K-dramas.

#6) Completing the on-line Spanish course at www.studyspanish.com. I am currently learning preterite and imperfect grammar. Useful in my line of work, living in CA.

#7) After I finish the Spanish course I hope to concentrate on Korean so I can converse with my friends in Seoul.  

#8) Figuring out what's truly the most important thing in life. It's why I go to church so I can learn to follow Him.

#9) Keeping my queen ants alive.  

 

But perhaps a better description of what I like to do would be to describe what I don't care to do:

#1) Spending so much time at work doing work, work and more work. Sometimes I think it's better to work out in the fields planting and picking crops.

#2) Fixing things at the house and the rental. Right now, the dead landscape needs a more drought-friendly redesign. The well at the rental is running low on water.

#3) Paying bills and taxes. Some I am okay with paying, others not. Outrageous college bills for my son and paying institutions tons of hard-earned money so that I have the necessary paper certificates to continue my line of work both fall into the latter category.

[bryancurtis8]

He there;

I record/write music in spanish.

Volunteer with the army community service as a marketing assistant.

Watch every type of movie I can even if they suck with my family just for fun.

Love having insects, arachnids & reptiles overall but since moving to California only have a bearded dragon and tarantula for the moment.

[MrmrGatlin]

Wow, we all have a lot of common hobbies. For me it's:
-rc helicopters, at least living room flying with my xieda 9958
-planted aquariums
-cars of all kinds, but I favor the FD3S
