Watching DvD's...some anime, regular sci fi and recently I've been going after older movies, Citizen Kane, Dr.Strangelove, Night of the Hunter etc. And a lot of horror films too :3

Otherwise I play Magic the Gathering with my uncle on the weekends. Tried to get into roleplaying, and Warhammer, but no clue where to start really. Stood outside a Games Workshop for five whole minutes but couldn't get up the nerve to go in and ask about it. Phweh ^^'

Mrr, and tend to read quite a bit too, Sci-Fi and Fantasy, that's about it. Can never seem to get into other fiction or even non-fiction unless it's a reference book on something I find interesting. Silas Marner and Don Quixote are the only two I own that aren't Sci-Fi or Fantasy, though, I guess Don Quixote has some fantastical elements to it.

Oh, and Manga, and Graphic Novels, no comics though, I really don't have the time, money or knowhow to invest in the individual comics, so graphic novels it is.

I'm also a fan of anime and Manga, but I have a few other hobbies too.
Coin collecting (face it. Everyone likes shiny things)
British TV shows (MUCH better than the stuff made in the 'states, and I'm a Yank saying this)

Outside of gaming, I work in a video game store. Which leaves only a fraction of time for you know, college, and stuff like that. lol
I worked 20+ hours a week in college, alongside a full class-load, and still had time for other things. It's all about time management. And forgetting to do your homework. Regularly.
Yeah, the problem is being a straight A-student (no forgetting homework) and a Theatre major. Which means constant rehearsals, lol. If it's not work, it's rehearsal.

Tennis, Squash and drawing.

I have yet to beat my regular squash partner, despite having beaten everyone else I have played so far. I played it at university too but smashed my kneecap during a pracice session and had to forfeit my place on the team having won the first two rounds. We won one more round but lost in the fourth round, sadly. Ah well.

I like to learn new things on 3Ds Max. That's always fun.

Today I learned that any aspect of an object (and I mean any aspect) can be edited vs. time. Opacity, Rotation, size on X axis, diffuse map parameters, you name it!

Drawing, cooking, sewing, list-making, website coding, finding new ones to make myself even more of a hopeless nerd, drinking with friends, and modeling (both the girly type and the Maya type).

Oh yes, also, sexing people up and exploring my awesome city. And making fake maps.

I'm unfortunate enough to have three expensive hobbies: a car guy with computer nerd tendencies and the recent addition of audiophile rounding out the list of someone who could have more fun in life if he wasn't broke.

Indoor bouldering, reading fiction and history (which is a bit worrying since that's also half of my uni degree. You'd think being forced to work on it would put me off)
