More an addiction than a hobby, but computer gaming
I like juggling a bit, but I usually get enough of that after a week or two of interest.
Skulking around on this forum definitely feels like a hobby now. I've only been here for a couple of days though. I wonder if it can hold my attention longer than a month. I have always been fascinated by people, but have been too shy/fearful/lacking confidence to even look at someone.
More that six months? That is not a typo?
pun aside, I think relating to people through the internet is more than a hobby for me, its an incurable addiction.
Until some three years back I was more of a passive internet consumer and never felt at home in most neurotypical circles such as facebook.
But once I found my own crowd of compatible people in places like addf and PerC whom I could more easily identify with, everything changed.

*Everything with them. I'd like to learn C++ and stuff, maybe someday my laziness will allow me to do it xD
**Well, I like photography and graphic design, I've got a reflex and all, but I'm not really interested just in putting things on paper or in some screen by a camera. I'm interested about the meaning of getting moments frozen, forever; like when you see a tree while sun is going down, and you feel like you won't see that image never again. I don't just take shots because they look beautiful or whatever. Felt like I needed to explain it.
