Surfing the net, reading and watching movies is my hobbies. But what I like most is Surfing the net. It just like a gateways to another amazing worlds. I could do this for many hours, and doesn't realize how many hour have passed to do this hobby. You can say that I'm internet addicts :) As for reading, I love to do it in my spare and relaxing times. I do love watching movies with my hubby, my friends and relatives. I found it more interesting if we watch movies with a companion, so we can discuss the film after that. What about you people, what's your hobby ?

I used to breed and raise parrots but I'm getting out of it after 20+ years. I just decided that I've had enough of this and would rather spend my time with another hobby, freelance writing and more time with my grandson! I also enjoy gardening and just about anything outdoors! And of course sports--can't forget the LSU Tigers!

I have sold about half of them. I still have my aviary at our old house. One of my daughters has moved in and is taking care of daily feedings for me in exchange for no rent :)

Hi lusirafa, Based on your started discussion here, I can say that we have similarities. Of all my hobbies, surfing the internet is what I love most. I really spend so much of my time in front of my computer to the extent that I can forget the time. Especially if I am here in mylot and participating to discussions here. I can say that mylotting is one reason why I am so addicted on the internet. Aside from earning here, we can gain friends and add some information on our brain because of so much information here that we can get.Learning and earning at same time is very much enjoyable. Another hobby of mine is chatting also on my friends online and also to my boyfriend. I can say that chatting to my boyfriend takes me so much time also in my computer. Unlike ordinary lovers, we can only see each other trough web cam. We are in a long distance relationship and everyone knows how difficult it is. But I should say that God is really good on both of us because in spite of all the difficulties, my and my boyfriend is still on a smooth relationship. I can say that internet plays a vital role in my life not just because surfing and chatting with it added to my hobby but because I can get also benefits from it.

That's why you spend a lot time at the net Annierose, you've got your love one there :) Yeah, internet is so much fun, it's like an endless world to surf, I always find that I don't have much time to surf the net (while I'm already spent 5 hours a day there). LOL ! But I wish for the best in your long distance relationship, you can make it girl. I'm also having LDR with my husband before we married. We survive 5 years of LDR and having our 3 years of marriage now :) No problems with LDR if you keep in touch, loving and having faith each other.

Yeah. You are right. Having a LDR requires so much patience in order for it to work out.

before I did spend a lot of time doing my hobbies and almost didn't even notice the time...I missed drawing, scrapbooking, listening to my fave bands, texting my friends, reading interesting books, watching movie marathons...but lately I've never got the chance to set a time for my hobbies, because of my busy schedule in my work...the only hobby I usually spend time is surfing the net...of course it includes mylotting.(^_^)

I collect football cards and I spend a lot of time with it. I probably spend an hour a day messing with them in some way. Whether it is on a trading board, surfing ebay, sorting them or listing them there is always something I could be doing with them. Luckily my little boy likes them too so now we have something we can do together.

I have many hobbies. At the moment I spend a lot of time on the internet, I can spend countless hours online. I use the internet to communicate with my friends, to make money, to read and participate in discussions, to look at online galleries, to search for information etc. I read a lot and I write myself, so reading and writing is also a hobby for me. About 5 years ago I started painting and it quickly become one of my hobbies. I have just had the chance to exhibit my paintings and I am very happy about that. I have sold some of them, but most of all painting is a hobby for me.

My hobby is mylot!!! lol posting and commenting. Well not really. I would say playing video games all day is my hobby. Its so fun and I can talk with friends and stuff. I got an Xbox 360 and it is so addicting. I also watch movies, anything that will keep me busy. There are so many movies I want to watch now but never get a chance to go and watch them. Thats why I only like games that last a good long time. Games that end fast are not good. But if its got a good story then I would probably beat it easy,hard, very hard.

My hobby is surfing the internet, watching movies and playing sports. Hehehehe... I like surfing the internet because I can earn money. Hehehehe.... I like watching movies because it is entertaining. I love sports because it makes me fit and healthy. I spend more time on surfing the internet and sports because it takes alot of time to earn money here in mylot. It also takes time to practice my sport which is Taekwondo. I only watch movies when I am interested of the movie, if I get bored with the movie, I surf the internet. Hehehehe... I also like spending my time with my girlfriend because we can joke around and have so much fun. Hehehehe... It's fun to be with my girlfriend.

Hello There! How is it going? Well, I have lots of hobbies that sometimes I can’t find time to do all of them but one thing that I can’t avoid is watching DVD series and movies. I love watching movies especially comedy, action/adventures movies… I don’t find my weekend to be complete without seeing any movies… lolz… though right now I am banning myself from watching movies until I finish my review for Cisco class. Second, I love collecting pocketbooks and read them all. Other stuff is just visiting my social networking sites to write what I want… I kinda love writing and expressing my feelings. I just wish I have more time to develop it since it is really essential to my life to be able to write well. Good luck. Thanks for the discussion and Happy Mylotting. Have a great day! Cheers!

Hi Jesbellaine, I'm fine, thanks for responding. That's an interesting hobbies you've got, and it's good that you've able to manage it, so it's not interfering your duties. People sometimes get lost when doing their hobby and neglect their duties. But I believe, this won't happen to you. Have a happy day Dear :)

I am making my hobby this year to make money online...LOL, no seriously that is it!! I love to read, love love love to read, and have many books in my house to prove it... and I have spent many nights up and reading, but this year I have decided it doesnt make me any money to do that and I am tired of being the broke mom that lives off what is left over from hubby's paycheck, so this year I want my own money and I want to help out with the bills... I use to work 3 jobs, 1 full time, 2 part time...and I worked 7 days a week, got laid off after 9/11 and got pregnant after that... we decided that the economy was slow anyway at that time... now of course it is worse, and we would lose money if I worked, so I stayed home. now I am a full time mom, full time housewife, and it still takes 2 incomes to pay the bills... so I have made my new yrs resolution, or what ever my hobby to make money....LOL

LOL, that's pretty much the same as I do. I used to surf the net for having fun, but because of the recent economy recession, I decide to make some money from that hobby. I'm also a full time mom, so I do this online job at night when my baby sleeping. It's good that my hubby also support this hobby, since it's help our incomes in some way :) Keep up the good work Friend, hope we earn a lot this year ^_^
