exercise, collecting antiquarian books, research on misc. academic-y stuff (some of which is very close to published), collecting pez dispensers, loyal yankees (baseball) fan, horror movies, comics, manga, anime, plotting to destroy the world.

exercise, Anime, Manga, history, politics, science, photography, technology, organizing and cleaning.

Along with playing games, I read quite the variety of books, am interested in Anime and Manga, listen to more music than you've ever heard of, play the guitar, and am slowly expanding my knowledge of movies. I'm pretty open to other hobbies as well, but I'm sucking up enough free time as it is. :)

My hobbies include:
Reading horror novels and watching horror movies.
Listening to music.
Playing the occasional TCG.
Learning HTML and C++.
Voicing my mind.
That's about it....

Except for gaming my hobbies include... oh, wait, right. Sorry, nothing to see here.

Yeah, that'd be fun, right?
I do, in fact code a little bit on my CMS (using XHTML, PHP, CSS, and Javascript) whenever I feel so inclined (or work requires it), which is not often, and not for many days at a time. I surf the web planlessly, and go to sleep when I realise I'm clicking in circles (usually takes a few reloads before I realise nothing new has been said).

other than gaming. I tend to enjoy:
-Paintballing (although because of time and expense of paint I haven't played in a while)
-Programming (so I like to make little programs and websites when I have the time to do so)
-Hockey (I love hockey, but don't play on ice because I live in the desert and it would be expensive to get equipment and started in a league, but I hope that someday after college when I have the money I can. Eagerly awaiting nhl 10)
-And lately, I've been really in to Magic the Trading Card Game. Its very strategic, and it feels good to build a deck and then have success with it. I've been playing little tournaments at local shops (just won a booster draft yesterday) and really enjoying my time spent.
Cool thread, keep it up.

Aside from gaming I enjoy:
Iaijutsu
Guitar
Live music
Shamisen
Japanese
Math

I figured so from your avatar. Not a big fan of it myself, but I did enjoy playing some Persona 4 and watching Afro Samurai.

Haven't played the Afro Samurai game yet (My friend said it was Ninja Gaiden but with Samuel L. Jackson.) and I like Persona 3 FES better.

- Reading, quite a lot.
- Writing, a serious project that is slowly progressing.
- Tabletop RPG, usually once in a week.
- Listening music.
- Philosophy, to help myself to keep my mind open and not begin too negative.
- History, studying it and loving it.
- Drinking and being drunk from time to time, a cultural matter where I live.

I thought you were Irish until I saw Switzerland...

I thought about playing Persona 3 FES before I got into Persona 4, but then I was reminded that was the one where you shoot yourself in the head with a revolver to summon demons, and I decided that if I were going to play one school-dungeon crawler, I'd better start out with lighter material and see how I go from there.

Yeah that one is pretty dark. Especially with the voices in your head....

I do some photography - all sorts really, events, weddings, flowers, nature, people.
