I need to find a new interest (what interests you?)
    #7791838 - 12/23/07 09:25 AM (16 years, 1 month ago)

Hello,

Every few weeks I find something new to get into, something new to obsess about. Something to look into, educate myself and read about. But I feel kinda undirected and bored lately. What are some of your guys interests? Anything I should get into?

Hobbies anyone?

You could just keep finding new books to read.
I've never really read for pleasure and I'm just starting to, and I'm really enjoying it. I just read Jurassic Park, and now I'm reading The Worthing Saga by Orson Scott Card.

Other than that, you could try:
Herbs
Classical Music (eras, musicians, etc.)
Can you play an instrument?
Articles on nutrition, the way the body utilizes different nutrients, etc. (check out bodybuilding.com)

I'm an avid reader. I just can't stop. I have a huge list of books I'd like to read. Half of the fun is trying to find copies of the books, which can be hard when the book is very random or not popular.

Used book stores are fun, not just for the books, but for the unique people you'll meet there.

Yeah, maybe that's what I need. A new book to read. The thing is that I was reading regularly and then suddenly, everything I read stopped satisfying me. Does that ever happen to anyone?

I'm teaching myself to sew and it's a lot of fucking fun actually. I'm beginning to make clothes that fit me perfectly and look exactly how I want clothes to look.

This website has helped me out a pretty good bit, lot's of great ideas :thumbup:

I've decided that I'm going to read up on psychology. Its something that deeply interests me and influences my every action.

I would also like to read up on electronics, and become somewhat proficient at that :laugh:

You can preserve the Spirit of Christmas in much the same way as seen in the movie Perfume by distilling Pine Oil from your own Christmas Tree and make Christmas Past incense thereof as seen in my Christmas Special thread in the Chem forum.

Just an idea :smile:

i've always wanted to comb through the internet and make a document archive of all the how to's anyone could possibly be interested in.

now that 500gb external hard drives are cheap it might be a good time.

you know what i mean?? like make your own universal knowledge resource thats not dependent on individual websites staying alive and unaltered.

working out and getting a body that your proud to have.

This takes will power so you work not just on the physical but also on the psychological.

Me being close to the poorest person on earth have gone great lengths to find ways to workout every muscle group without the luxury of a gym.

Just yesterday I finally stumbled upon the perfect oak tree limb to do pull-ups on. 9 feet up and strong and sturdy as a rock.

Jogging also. I also managed to hit second wind yesterday for the first time ever.

try the following hobbies that i like:

searching for undeveloped land buying it for cheap
trading in precious metals
looking for things on craigslist that you can turn a profit on
cooking
cleaning out your house
guitar, music. jamming. expression through sound!
philosphy, spirituality esp taoism
meditation regimen - 15 minutes a day. keeps y ou calmer than a bonghit in the morning
read!

most of my hobbies revolve around money. not because i'm greedy or materialsitc, i'm just young and realize i need to get started on building my life. also i find that the true meaning of wealth and value are fascinating. the music, philosophy, reading are the heart and soul of it all. punctuated of course, by a soothing cup of tea and the occasional joint.

Oh man, I'm the same exact way. Do you have a problem getting your brain to shut up so you can focus on other tasks or attempt to sleep? They technically classify that kind of cyclical obsession as a personality/mood disorder in a lot of cases these days. Ah well, I guess everything is medicated in today's world.

I used to do a lot of my DJing based on this kind of behavior since I could collect and research so many different types of music and aspects of sound that it kept my mind occupied constantly. I have a problem reading many books because I can predict how most will end by about halfway, even if it's a good author. If you need a good book to obsess over, try House of Leaves by Mark Z Danielewski... I've yet to meet someone who hasn't gotten obsessed with it after picking it up. Not one.

i will second house of leaves.


i'm not sure i obsessed over the book... but when people see you spinning the book around and looking at it upside down and flipping back and forth through the pages they'll think you're obsessing...

recently i was thinking i'd really like to try and make a graphical chart of the themes in the book. i'm wondering if it would make a labyrinth.
