Hobbies

Everyone should have a hobby. There are many things that I enjoy doing outside of work. Reading, eating, music, watching some series or the other on my laptop and what not.

But I try not of think of all these as my hobbies because although I like eating, I am not a very good cook. I avoid cooking and usually order in or if I have to make something, I take short cuts. My heart is very rarely into cooking!

When it comes to music, I like listening to a variety of artists but I can’t sing to save my life and I have zero instrument playing abilities.

It’s a little different with reading but not much. I love to read and a good book has a longer lasting impact on me. But when it comes to ‘doing’, I don’t write much. I write a few poems now and then. It’s usually funny or based on someone/something I really like or dislike. Accordingly, the poems are either very mean or very sweet!

My ‘current’ hobby is none of the one above but something ‘crafty’! I have always wanted to draw well. Something that I have not been able to do so far. So I compensate for my lack of ‘arty’ skills with my ‘crafty’ skills. Of late, I have been  putting my crafty skills to use and doing some quilling. I quill friends on their bitrthdays, weddings, farewells and other such occassions.

It’s super fun (and easy) and generally very well received 🙂
