Can you suggest any cool hobbies?

Question

I think my life is boring, and I don't even know what do I enjoy.. I have to experiment with things even before I can decide if it's for me or not.

But anyway, can you suggest any "cool" hobbies for me?

Maybe rock climbing, photography, etc..these are just two hobbies which I think are sexy and cool at the same time. hehe.

Answer 1

Try coin collecting. It doesn't have to cost you a lot. You can go to the bank and pick of a box of coin (whichever denomination you like) for exactly face value. A box of pennies is $25, a box of nickels is $100, a box of dimes is $250 and boxes of quarters or half dollars are $500. You don't have to buy the whole box. The bank can pull out whatever amount you like.

Once you get a box, you can go through and pull out the better coins (there are books to help with this or websites). You can pick up a coin album and try to fill all the holes (get one for each year) or just search for interesting ones.

The coins that you don't want can be returned to the bank and put straight back into your account (though it's often better to return the coins to a different bank (not just a different branch but a different bank) so that you don't search the same coins over and over). Everything you find will have been obtained at face value. You'd be surprised what people have found. Check out these links to see:

Also check your change for interesting finds.

Some things to search for: wheat pennies, silver dimes, silver quarters, old coins, error coins, coins with the "S" mintmark - it could be a proof coin etc. There's always the chance that you could find a real treasure!

It's also helpful to buy a red book. It can help you price your coins and will answer many of the questions you may have.

OR IF THAT'S NOT FOR YOU...

Answer 2

I looked to my brother and his many many hobbies for answering this one.
He does all that kite buggying stuff (which he originally started off by just doing the power kiting thing).....I'd say that was pretty cool.
My bro also does photography (he's recently won a big photo magazine competition and had 4 centre pages of his work printed!) If you like photography, try combining it with computing - editing your own pics can be fun and creative. My bro is always editing his own pics into amusing things (eg one he just did shows him floating in space with pots and pans etc)

Answer 3

Knitting? If you're into photography, that suggests you're arty, so knitting might be up your street. I know it sounds/looks boring, but maybe you should check out www.knitty.com to see how you can create some really cool things! My favourite patterns can be found if you go to archive, and select 'whimsies' from the drop-down list.

Answer 4

I'd never claim it is "sexy"... but I love model building.

I'm also a model railroading geek which brings in photography, writing articles, electronics, sculpture, painting, etc.

Hope you find a hobby you think is "cool"

Answer 5

Crocheting is another hobby that sounds boring but you can make many sexy clothing items & might be a little easier than knitting.

Answer 6

Ski-ing is in cool both senses.
I am one of England's leading moth-bafflers.
Maybe start a craft for fun and profit, like knitting a working model of Al Gore out of spaghetti?

Answer 7

There are lots of things for you to try. Photography is always good, sports of all types, biking, hunting and fishing, art (painting, pottery, wood working). Pick whatever sounds like fun and try it. If you lose interest, there are lots of other things to do.

Answer 8

if you are into photography then scrapbooking would be great fun for you. You can try this link for inspiration

Answer 9

I think growing and learning about differnet flowers is cool.
