I think many of you need to add re learning to read, and simple math to your list to do. OP asked for 3 things. not 4-6 things
Its pretty simple for me
kids
wife
rest of family
We are a very family oriented group of people. So most of my friends are my family. Obviously I do more like watching movies and rocking out but thats not the first 3. See guys/gals, thats how you slip in more then 3 Automatically Appended Next Post: mattyrm wrote:Reading, i do lots of it for leisure.

1. Work as a Science teacher. Very enjoyable!
2. Read a lot of books, currently on a fantasy bend.
3. Collect comic books.
My life is currently a bit weird because I've just moved country and I'm living temporarily in a guest house. Ask me again in a couple of months and my list would be pretty different, I reckon.

My life for the past 14 years has been nothing if not eventful.
I ll spare you the details but for now I currently work doing support for a soon to be tanked online crime game,and use the remaining hours in which I should sleep to train either running or jumping the rope (a lot harder and more fatigating than it sounds actually),walk the dog,and sleep 4 hours rinse and repeat until friday night where my need of actual social life makes me call every person in the same geographical area as me to do something and invariably get turned down since everyone is too busy drinking beer or coke and watching tv or spending time with their gF'S (this I do respect however as I ve never had a stable relationship and imagine it must be very important and fun to have one).
Looking to get back into translation school next month
An hour or two of my sleep time is usually stolen by my conveniently placed next to the bed minis work bench

How can JRPG's stay alive with nowhere to expand and develop?
They stay alive because Japanese people love seeing a rainbow's assortment of hair colours, people with animal ears, wings, or tails, clothes that even a blind guy wouldn't wear, and cookie-cutter angsty teenage-hero characters that all have some life-shattering unique, heartfelt sad soppy story.
Likewise, many people in the West are slowed to some degree, and they think that the storylines and characters are actually of a decent quality. Generally, these people are in the 12-16 bracket and/or are the same crowd that think the Twilight movies are the best films ever produced/books ever written. |

In order of the ammount of time afforded to a given activity:
1. Work 8-4 Mon-Fri
2. Raising my Daughter. I wish this could be number one, but reality sucks.
3. Hobbies: 40K, pen and paper RPG's, and target shooting being the big three of many activities I find myself participating in. I try to involve my lil one in as much as possible. She's learning to paint, D&D is great for teaching math with dice and creativity, and while she's not shooting yet (still a little shy and at 5yrs old still lacks fine motor control) she goes to the range and learns gun safety.

In order:
1. Work. Weeks ranging from 80-100 hours (between a full-time job and a personal business) tend to dominate one's existence.
2. Research. I get to do this at work when I'm not seeing clients during managerial hours.
3. Sport. I play rugby and soccer as often as possible.
4. Travel. In the past year I've taken 4 extended vacations over seas, mostly looking at potential PhD schools.

1) Work. I generally work 0400-1700 from Monday to Friday.
2) Practice my language. It's a perishable skill and I don't get too much exposure anymore.
3) Paint and listen to podcasts. I'm chipping away at the mountain of unpainted miniature on my desk bit by bit.
