Wandering Aimlessly

1. What are your hobbies?
Writing and drawing are the two I make a point to make time for. I wish I could read for fun all the time, but class reading fills that time. =( Can't wait for summer for that. <.g> Singing used to be a huge hobby, but time for that seems to have disappeared also. Someday...

2. Do you collect anything? If so, what?
The question should be what don't I collect. I am a pack rat. I keep everything. Even stupid stuff, like wristbands from various events and such. I used to collect kitten stuff, when I was a kid. So I have this huge box of anything and everything dealing with cats. I have a bunch of XF stuff and a bunch of *NSYNC stuff, but I'm not sure I consciously collect that, I just acquire it. <.g> Oh, shot glasses. I forgot about shot glasses. I get them wherever I go on vacation.

3. Is there a hobby you're interested in, but just don't have the time/money to do?
Well, the choir thing. I wish I had time to join a choir again. I wish I could pick up my violin again. I'd like to learn the piano. I'd love to be able to go into my old art studio and paint again. I really enjoy being around kids, and I wish I had an opportunity to do that again, also (even though I'm not sure that's a hobby... lol). All these "agains." Yeesh!

4. Have you ever turned a hobby into a moneymaking opportunity?
Not that I can think of. When I was a kid, we used to set up stands outside to sell friendship bracelets we'd made and drawings we'd done... our neighbors used to buy them for like 50 cents. Does that count?

5. Besides web-related stuff (burbs, rings, etc.), what clubs do you belong to?
Right now, I'm in Volunteer Illini Friendship Project, which is a mentoring group. I'm officially a member of a bunch of different honors societies, which all have service components... and none of which I've ever been actively involved in. =/ I'm in GilliAngels and <.gulp> supposed to be a founding member of NWGA... oops. I believe someone is missing their month of May, however, so no one needs to be complaining about August not being done. <.g> And I guess my membership in stuff like Tri-M (Modern Music Masters, I think) and the International Thespian Society are lifetime, if those count as clubs.
