Top 10 Pastimes
What are the top 10 most fun things to do with an hour or two of spare time?
-
Listening to Music
Great fun, just bring your iPod and lay down in a field in the middle of summer. All your worries just melt away.
Listening to music is very relaxing, especially when you've had a bad day or are bored.
I'd say playing an instrument is #1. When I play guitar, 2 hours pass like it was 10 minutes.
-
Surfing the Web
I can't imagine how people ever figured out where to eat, or how they ever kept in touch with each other before the Internet.
Yeah, I probably spend too much time doing this.
It's a favorable website to browse around.
-
Watching TV
You are so right. My mom said my eyes are going to be messed up because I am on the computer too much... Damn bad eyes!
Isn't it funny how little we really watch TV anymore? The Internet has almost killed the darn thing.
-
Reading
Reading is not boring at all! Reading is like living in a different world, which is fun. You open up your imagination deeper when you read. The more you read, the more you learn. You learn a lot of new things every day just by reading.
It's a bit boring to admit, but I love reading. Crime/thriller novels, non-fiction British history - I can't get enough of books. Not a bit of plastic like the Kindle, but real books I can feel and smell. I'm glad this is in the top 5.
You can never read enough, and you can also never reread enough. Seriously, if I were locked in a room with any of the following series: LOTR, Inheritance, Percy Jackson, or Harry Potter, I would never get bored.

Playing Video Games
It's the best if you wake up, get breakfast, play, get lunch, play, get dinner, play, then sleep. Best day possible.
-
Watching Movies
I love going to movies with my best buds. Who doesn't love a good movie?
Ah yes, one of my all-time favorite things to do.

Sleeping
Great, makes you grow taller too.

Talking
I never shut up sometimes. I'll admit it.

If I could do this, I probably would. I have a little bit of an allergy to pain, though, so I haven't taken it up.
Other than sex, this and snowboarding are the best things in the world.
Hey people, learn this and get a life!

Fishing
Reeling in a fish is fun and exciting.

Exercising
Get a good body, feel accomplished, and wake up and spend every day more physically able. There are so many muscles in your body to work and so many exercises that it would take a lifetime to master them.

Shopping
I can spend hours out shopping, mostly looking at stuff but buying a few things too. Clothes, stuff for the house, stuff that makes my life easier and makes my style more current and fresh.
-
Bowling
-
Playing Sports
Popular pastime often practiced at home. Enjoyable, especially with friends.
-
Eating
Anyone who doesn't like to eat might, and probably should, die. Eating is not only essential, it's also fun.
-
Daydreaming
Is it a pastime or a habit? I can't stop myself from doing this every day, throughout the day.
-
Vegetating
Correct, it crafts our mind in such a way that it indulges an extra quality to face situations of high tension. It is self-training for our mind and body.
Just sit in a silent room, stare into space, and do absolutely nothing!
-
Drawing
I'm a terrible drawer, but I draw anyway.
-
Doing Home Repair Taks
-
Taking Quizzes
-
Socializing
-
Solving Sudoku

Walking
If you want to go for a walk or go to a friend's house, just ask and hear the magic happen. If it doesn't work, convince your parents somehow or make an excuse.
