    Hey guys! I know some of us here have more spare time than others, and being my inquisitive nature would like to know what you guys like to do during your spare time. I barely have any spare time right now, but who knows...! You could give me some ideas on what hobbies to pursue once I the time to have a hobby ;)

    Back when I actually had the time to do things I liked, I used to dedicate a lot of my spare time to playing video games. I also liked to watch some TV, read comics, take photos of my garden, gardening, etc. enjoyed those things immensely!

    What about you?

    I love to sleep every afternoon. I used to love talking on the phone, but now not anymore, unless they call me. I don't initiate small talk anymore over the phone. I love playing video games and watching movies and my fave tv shows. Right now I'm hooked with "Devious Maids".

    I need to check that one out :) I have heard about that TV show, but haven't watched yet. What is that show about exactly? The name sounds so intriguing! I'd love to be able to sleep every evening :( No time for that right now :arghh:

    Have you watched an episode of Desperate Housewives or familiar with it's plot? That's how the show is, because they have the same creator, Marc Cherry. It's not even aired yet in our country, but since I'm friends with Eva Longoria in FB anbd she keeps mentioning and promoting it, I decided to download it via torrents. She's the producer. I suggest that you watch it, it's funny and a mix of mystery and drama, my kinda show. Just download season 1 at kickass torrents, I heard that season 2 stared this April 20 in the US.

    I do have a hobby like the rest of us and I like aquarium fishes particularly cichlids. In our backyard where I do have few aquariums I breed fontosa and ramirezi. These fishes aren't big but really I like to watch them closely.

    They are my stress reliever too.

    I scarcely have any spare time right now. I guess i'd have to say my spare time is late in the evening when I get a chance to watch some TV. On Monday nights I like watching local football and on Thursday nights boxing. The other days it's basically whatever I catch, which would be any forensic, legal or medical series. Apart from TV I basically relax with my family and chat and laugh about any topic.

    Same here, Rosa. I barely have any time left to watch TV or read... I can't dream of even reading a book actually, but watching TV is still doable. Glad you spend most of your free time socializing with your family, that's very important!

    Oh yeah, I once almost watched an episode of that TV show, but I changed the channel fast. I didn't get the chance to actually watch it or enjoy it to be honest. I might give this one a try tho :) I think they're already airing it, but I'm not entirely sure. I will surely take a look!

    Oh, Desperate Housewives is my fave show of all time, and now I add Devious Maids to the list! I strongly urge you to watch it, it's funny! I would be surprised if you don't get hooked after the 1st episode. I was also like that the 1st time I watched the pilot episode of Desperate Housewives. But it would be best to watch the first episode. If you don't then you will never enjoy the show since you can't "relate", you know?

    That's a nice way to spend your free time :) I've always wanted to be part of a club. It's always nice to feel like you are part of something.

    If I had the time I'd surely join a photography club :) That would surely became nice way to learn more about photography and meet new people.

    I have heard a lot about ''the real desperate wives from x city''. It's not the same right? I think the latter is a reality show, isn't it?

    Well, some of us no longer have hobbies due the lack of time ;)

    I used to be really into aquarium when I was younger, but I had to stop because the hobby was starting to get a bit expensive. To make things worse my fish died, that was when I decided to quit.

    I might start again, my bf wants an aquarium. I find fish relaxing too, I love to watch them swim.

    I enjoy playing video games, riding my bicycle and going out with my friends for some urban exploration. It's a pretty interesting hobby, even though we always get tired from it.

    I also love playing video games! I am actually dying to play the latest walking dead video game, I actually plan to do so once I get enough time to actually play. Right now that's not a chance, but as soon as I can I surely will!

    I love reading! What kind of books do you like to read? Fiction or non fiction? I personally prefer non fiction over fiction because I at least can learn something new from those books. I enjoyed the Harry Potter series immensely tho!

    Yes they are very diff., and I've seen the commercials for the reality show on cable, I just can't seem to catch the show. It looks interesting.

    I think the reality show is surrounded by a lot drama and and shocking moments. I think I read the headlines of a cast member who shot someone!
