My hobby is hobbies. I start something spend whatever money I want whilst it entertains me and then drop it without reason and move on to something else. Some I will come back to years later.
The curse of ADHD.
When friends comment on my ever changing hobbies and dropping them, my reply is simple; it’s the journey for me and not the end goal.
Current hobbies and durations:
- Rubik’s Cube - 6 years
- Indoor bouldering - 4 months
- Running - 25 years on and off, currently off.
- Lego - 1 week. Only have one set. The Bonsai Tree.
- 3D Printing - 2 years but off right now until I can get a new printer that isn’t so high maintenance.
Indoor bouldering
Wait, what? Is this a Sysiphus kind of hobby that I haven't heard about yet!
I’m not sure if you’re being serious right now and it doesn’t help that my Greek mythology knowledge is severely lacking (something I’ve wanted to learn more about).
So in case you don’t know what I’m talking about, indoor bouldering is like indoor rock climbing but not so high you need a belay system. Also, the climbs imitate boulders and so you might climb with all the holds being above your head, like the top of a cave.
As an expert in hobbies, I can honestly say this is freaking amazing. It’s got physical activity mixed in with problem solving and all the people I’ve talked to are super nice too (geeks, we are all geeks). If anything like me I find it hard to turn off my mind; this does that for me though. It’s meditative for me.
A bit after I posted, it occurred to me that it could've been that, but I was too lazy to edit my post.
I'm no a native English speaker, so I didn't think of it at first, sorry. Also I kind of liked the idea of a hobby where you rolled large boulders in your home.
No problem. I just want to say your English is amazing for a non-native speaker / writer.
Also, I carry my burdens around the home like Sisyphus so there is that 😂.
