I really like some of the stuff I'm studying at uni so I like to count that as a hobby. (Sport science, & education)

I love basketball.

I'm in the process of starting to get into Olympic lifting, I know a little about it, and it seems really awesome, the only problem with it is that I need a spotter or equipment, so I need to convince a mate to join a gym in the city with me. If he won't I'll just turn up to the gym and ask a dude bigger than me for a spot.

I like to read but not as much as I use to, I wouldn't call myself an avid reader or anything but I love books.

I like to watch shows, not just a film but a whole season of a show. I like it more for some reason.

I was into Judo a lot in highschool and I'm considering getting back into it at a nearby club, but it's rather expensive and I'm rather broke.

I also like arguing on the internet.

EDIT: I love answering questions on Wiki Answers. I ended up becoming a mod by accident, so now I enjoy clarifying peoples answers as well.

I was going to say classical music, but seeing as it is ever so slowly becoming my profession, my hobbies only include... More music. Yeah, I'm that guy. I have gained entrance to the national academy of music as a conductor, with my main instrument being percussion, and my hobbies are classical piano, composition (both "classical" and some jazz), arranging and writing everyday-poetry. I also know how to pluck a guitar and blow a trumpet, but not in any way anybody actually would want to listen to it.

Gardening, painting (wall & canvas), reading, cooking, exercising. Bit of t.v./music - it's usually something that is in the background while I do other things. I also do a lot of domestic stuff - sewing/mending, crafts, organizing, cleaning, line-drying laundry (which is oddly soothing), etc. Add a couple of hours of video games to all that and my days can be pretty busy.

my hobby is hobbies. I "phase" through multiple hobbies at a time at irregular intervals, i've done thing from the completely normal through the somewhat out-of-ordinary to the downright absurd. Writing seems to be quite popular among escapists, i've tried my hand that that for example, Then i had a long running hobby of keeping turtles, specifically the short-lived ones, but when they died (of natural causes after a long healthy life mind you, i don't kill) i froze the corpses and kept them. Also i'm not particularly sporty, so i once collected injuries from failed attempts at parkour...however that was short-lived ( like the turtles, i considered teaching them parkour, but scrapped the idea pretty quickly). I also collect mousepads and maps.

I read (although not as much as I used to since the place I moved to, the closest library has been undergoing repairs for several years [that and I don't think I'd be able to get a library card here]), I make up stories (I'd say that I write stories, but I haven't been writing lately due in part to depression), I like visiting NYC (while technically, since I live in Brooklyn I already live in NYC, most people here when they say NYC, they mean Manhattan), I collect coins, and admittedly, I like to shop (that being probably one of the only girly things about me. Well, that and my love of snuggling. Can that count as a hobby?).

EDIT: Cosplaying! [http://www.cosplay.com/member/224293/costumes/] How did I forget to include that?

Escrima, working on cars, playing my bass guitar, inventing things, and reading books(novels mainly though nonfiction can be equally interesting depending on the topic.).

Between being a student and gaming.
I really enjoy watching movies. And I also run every morning.

Drawing and writing mainly. I often draw the characters from my stories.

I used to read and watch anime often, but I haven't been doing those two much lately.

Play bass guitar because I like it and eventually want to form a metal band with my brother who plays guitar. Listen to music, read, watch movies, watch TV shows, watch anime, take walks outside, swimming, playing basketball, playing tennis. And other st00f.

I enjoy reading and working on writing material as I'm an aspiring author. I also have a strong love of heavy metal, specifically death metal and pagan black metal and so listen to it quite frequently enough for it to be called a hobby. Besides gaming, that really is about it.

Well there's geek stuff and general media stuff (Reading, Comics, Pretty much any analog game, Movies, TV and the like)

I play paintball time to time, but that's a pretty small hobby. I also Camp, and I flip Butterfly Knives enough that I suppose it counts as a hobby.

Mainly, I'm a runner, around 9 miles most days. Working towards a half marathon, and want to get up to a marathon.
